EXODUS 3:15

YAH.WEH THE GOD OF YOUR FATHERS – THE GOD OF ABRAHAM, THE GOD OF ISAAC, AND THE GOD OF JACOB – HAS SENT ME TO YOU.
THIS IS MY NAME FOREVER, AND THIS IS HOW I AM TO BE REMEMBERED IN EVERY GENERATION IN EVERY GENERATION.

Jesus had siblings :

- Guess what: the Bible is the history of the Israelites!
- Each page tells you that!
- Each story tells you that!
- Each family tells you that!
- The book of Adam's story tells you that!

____________________________________________________________

Remember:

• John and his brother James were characterized by zeal, passion and ambition!
• In his early days with Jesus, at times John acted rashly, recklessly, impetuously, and aggressively!
• In spite of these youthful expressions of misdirected passion, John aged well!
• He began to understand the need for humility in those who desired to be great!
• John’s is the only gospel that records Jesus washing the disciples’ feet!
• John was passionately devoted to the proclamation of truth!
• No one in Scripture, except Jesus, had more to say about the concept of truth!
• At the same time, John is also called the “apostle of love”!
• In his own gospel, he refers to himself as “the one whom Jesus loved”!

____________________________________________________________
Remember:

• If you think like today’s people, you will never understand the Bible!
• They used to write differently!
• They used to speak differently!
• They used to think differently!
• They used to act differently!

____________________________________________________________

Remember:

Biblical Hebrew has a very small number of words, about 8,000, and around 1,700 of those words are hapax legomena (being said once) in the Hebrew Bible. Modern Hebrew has about 100,000 words. For comparison modern English has over 450,000 words, and Spanish has just over 175,000 words. Standard English dictionaries typically have about 200,000 words, whereas Spanish dictionaries have about 80,000 words.

This means words often have multiple meanings determined by context.

Although yom is commonly rendered as day in English translations, the word yom can be used in different ways to refer to different time spans:

• Point of time (a specific day)
• time period of a whole or half a day:
  • Period of light (as contrasted with the period of darkness),
  • Sunrise to sunset
  • Sunset to next sunset
• General term for time ( as in 'days of our lives')
• A year "lived a lot of days"
• Time period of unspecified length. "days and days"

__________________________________________________________________________

The Greek language is ranked as the richest in the world with 5 million words and 70 million word types. According to Dr. MacDonald, only 600,000 Greek words are used today, making the Greek vocabulary the largest in the world and 3.5 times bigger than the English vocabulary.

Though there are 138,607 words in the Greek New Testament, only 5,394 are unique.

All this Greek and Strongs cut and paste is really tedious and quite unnecessary. We can refer to them for specific words. Spare us all having to read through a multitude of pages to get to your point. We know the story and history.
The whole irony in this is that you, pretending to be a scholar, DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE FUNDAMENTAL TRUTH ABOUT JESUS. JESUS IS GOD, WHO CAME IN THE FLESH. After all your studies and you miss that one very important truth! In other threads that you started, your premise was Anti-Simetic in nature. Even this one has that premise. Sure the Pharisees were wrong. We understand their motivations but it was the Father's and Jesus' will to give His life for our sins. It was the plan from the start. God became flesh and dwelt among us.
Non-trinitarians go off on a tangent and mislead others. Folks, don't follow this guy!

- Accurate knowledge is the only weapon against corruption!
- Jesus spent his time fighting corruption when he was on earth!
- The apostles did the same!
- But it keeps spreading everywhere!
- It's not a reason to abandon accurate knowledge for corruption!
- NEVER!

I didn't pick up on that story about Jesus - "fighting corruption when He was on earth". He came as the "suffering servant", the 'Prince of Peace", "The Lamb Who takes away the sins of the World". John the Baptist, probably wondering why he was in prison, asks the disciples to ask Jesus a message: "Are you the one who was to come or should we expect someone else?" John was doubting or maybe just disillusioned why the Savior would allow him to be in prison? John's purpose was complete and I guess it was time for him to disappear. Jesus reponded: "Go back and report to John what you have seen and heard: The blind receive sight, the lame walk, those who have leprosy are cured, the deaf hear, the dead are raised and the good news is preached to the poor." Luke 7:22
Jesus came to die for our sins, not to fight against corruption. Oh he turned over a few tables and rebuked and angered the Pharisees, but that was not his purpose for His First Coming. His Second Coming is for Judgment, and He will come as the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, a conquering King.

You did not address my comments and deflect off the subject as to avoid answering and detour others. No one is abandoning the TRUTH. But you however don't understand what these verses mean: "I am the way, the truth and the life ..." or "I am the Bread of Life"; "I am the Resurrection"; "I am the Alpha and Omega"; "Before Abraham was, I AM". You study all the Greek and Strongs and can't discern Who Jesus really is, GOD. This is your conundrum, your dilemma, you stumble over it and seek to justify your alternate belief - BUT IT JUST WON'T WORK! At least 97% of Christians are Trinitarians.
