    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    Trinitarianism punches the Jew in the nose. It will do the same to me, with or without you.

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    Jesus is the Messiah promised and raised up by the God of Abraham. The God of Abraham is neither Jesus himself nor the Trinity. The God of Abraham is the Messiah’s God.

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    Trinitarianism - the God of Abraham is the Trinity. Scripture - the God of Abraham is the God of Jesus.

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    The Shield of the Trinity. A famous diagram dating from the 12th / 13th century C.E. depicting the God of trinitarianism - not the God of the Jews, not the God of Jesus. Trinitarianism isn’t more authoritative than Jesus. Jesus is more authoritative than trinitarianism. The God of...

    I believe.

    What is truth?

    You aren’t getting that from Jesus.

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    If he did, then hold on to it. To throw away truth, no matter who teaches it, is foolishness.

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    Jesus says that he and the Father are one. What he doesn’t say is that he and the Father are one as trinitarianism would centuries later say they are one. Jesus is a Jew, not a trinitarian. He is one with his God.

    What is truth?

    So says Jesus of Nazareth? Of course not. Charge dismissed. Next case. Jesus of Nazareth himself is a Jew. His God is only one person, the Father. Jesus is, by definition, a unitarian. In the eyes of a Jew to accept the doctrine of the Trinity is worse than heresy. If a person accepts the...

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    So you would say then that C.S. Lewis is a false teacher and should be rejected altogether. Do you think he taught anything that is true?

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    What is your opinion of C.S. Lewis? Do you consider him to be a good teacher or a false teacher?

    What is truth?

    The Trinity isn’t Jesus’ God.

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    Thanks. That’s one way of looking at it. Many years ago I purchased a book online from an old Jewish bookseller in New York. When the book I purchased arrived in the mail I discovered a handwritten personalized note attached on the inside cover from the Jew. I still have it. The note reads...

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    Are you under the impression that everything a false teacher teaches is false? “The facts should be more important than the scholar’s religious orientation.” (Brad H. Young, Jesus The Jewish Theologian, p. 66.)

    What is truth?

    Did Jesus teach you that his God and our God is the Trinity?

    What is truth?

    The Catholic translation I quoted is fine. (I’m mildly surprised you rejected it.) Jesus, the Son of God, is the suffering servant whom Isaiah - another Jew / unitarian - prophesied about.

    What is truth?

    That’s coming from you, not them, and not from the Roman Catholic Church.
  18. Matthias

    What is truth?

    How much of that do non-Roman Catholic trinitarians - whom you say are not Christians - agree with?

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    You’re the one who is saying they’re right, not me.

    William Barclay on “The Father and I are one.”

    They constantly misunderstood what he said. The Messiah does say and do what his God says and does.
