That’s the Roman Catholic interpretation. As you know, not all trinitarians agree with it.

Christ and Peter - two Jewish men. Thanks. What you stated here is precisely what trinitarianism teaches. I spent the last two years speaking with trinitarians on another Internet forum who insisted that it doesn’t. In order to be a trinitarian we must reject the notion that Jesus of...

The Roman Catholic Church isn’t the Church which began as a sect of Judaism. That should be obvious to you. Jesus is a man, not a Roman Catholic man. Jesus is a man, a Jewish man. A Jewish man founded the early Church. No Jewish man - in fact, as you pointed out, “no man at all” - founded...

Indeed. A Jewish human person founded the early Church. He isn’t a trinitarian, and neither was the church he founded. A person whose God is only one person - by definition, unitarian - doesn’t found a church whose God is three persons - by definition, trinitarian.

My question concerned whether or not you believe Jesus was / is a human person. The trinitarian answer is no, Jesus was not / is not a human person. Your answer, as it stands, may or may not align with that of trinitarianism.

“Christ” = “Messiah,” and Christ’s / Messiah’s God, who is the head of him, is his / the Father.

Roman Catholicism replaced the early Church, which was Jewish.

What is that one faith? You - the faith expressed in the Athanasian Creed, and no doubt other creeds common to Roman Catholicism as well. Me - The faith of, and in, Jesus of Nazareth - a Jew (unitarian), not a Roman Catholic (trinitarian).

Is it safe for me to assume that you agree with Roman Catholicism in particular, and trinitarianism in general, that Jesus of Nazareth is not and never was a human person? I’m asking because I’ve encountered many trinitarians over the years - Catholic and Protestant - who were unaware that this...

God is the head of Christ (1 Corinthians 11:3).

See Church history.

Yes, but not Roman Catholic.

God worked in the Jewish prophets; God worked in the Messiah, Jesus of Nazareth, himself a Jewish prophet. “Men of Israel, listen to these words: Jesus the Nazarene, a man attested to you by Godwith miracles and wonders and signs which God performed through him in your midst, just as you...

The prophet like Moses - Jesus of Nazareth - whom the God of Moses and the God of Jesus promised to raise up from among the people (Deuteronomy 18:15,18) did this.

Agreed. King David and King Jesus are worshipped.

See the “earlier still Church” - the Christians / Christianity prior to the Athanasian Creed.

See “primitive Christianity” - Christians / Christianity prior to the Nicene Creed.

I think you’re reading Catholicism into scripture. The earliest Christians were Jews, not Roman Catholics.

The Church canonized writings of Jews - see your personal thoughts on the Jews. Yes. And 14. Only a Jewish man can be this; the man Jesus Christ. Only a Jewish man. Okay. The Jewish man’s God. Yes. The Jewish man has a prominent role in the new creation.

John the Baptist is a Jewish prophet. Jesus of Nazareth is a Jewish prophet. The children of Israel were Jews. This is a Jewish story, not a trinitarian story. “The Lord their God” is the God of John the Baptist, the God of Jesus of Nazareth, the God of the children of Israel / the Jews. “The...
