the truth is not something but somebody
Unresponsive to the point of Trinitarians desperately trying to justify their doctrine by equating a WHAT (word) with a WHO.

the truth is not something but somebody
This thread is about how the Book of Acts undermines trinitarianism. Don't try to change the subject.
This shows trinitarianism does not bring out the fruit of the Spirit.
Trinitarians falsely equate being worshipped as proof of God. It is not. David was worshipped and that did not make him God.
Sure @Wrangler I do prefer we stick toI trust you realize you are NOT sticking to what is in the Bible here but constructing some kind of synthesis - for the purposes of supporting an doctrine that is NOT explictly taught in the Bible. Otherwise, you'd simply quote that one verse.

Dear @postno, this shows you have not read John 8:24, and your version of 'fruit' is to welcome blasphemy with open arms into your bed.
it is clear: you believe that Christ is I AM or you die in your sins.
John 8:24 are the words of Jesus; take it up with Him.
oh but you only have one book in your bible, because you're here to deny God, right?
well let me be your servant:
Therefore take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers,
to shepherd the church of God which He purchased with His own blood.
(Acts 20:28)
the church of WHO?
bought with WHOSE BLOOD?
Christ is God.
a good shepherd gives no quarter to wolves.

Christ is God.
If you are framing Jesus Christ from God's perspective, yes, the Son and the Father are One
David was not worshipped.

Here are the Commandments by Scripture
Bible Gateway passage: Matthew 22:36-40 - King James Version
Matthew 23:36-39
John 13:34I really don't know what point you are trying to make. Jesus said the most important command is the Sh'ma. To love God with all your heart is not the way God would talk about himself. That is Jesus did not say he is God and people should pray to him and love him with all your heart but this other character called God.
You are in ignorance of the meaning of John 8:24. Why do you keep embarrassing yourself with scripture you cannot understand without forcing upon yourself and onto others a corrupt bias and the worship of a worn-out pagan idea.no, this shows you have not read John 8:24, and your version of 'fruit' is to welcome blasphemy with open arms into your bed.

@theefaiththe truth is not something but somebody
I am the way the truth and the life and the resurrection and the life!
it’s a mystery we cannot comprehend
I agree with @Wrangler the closer we stick to just Scripture, we avoid this complication in the first place.
Our faith is one, but this contorted way of taking parts of Father/Son/HolySpirit out of context or mixing contexts just loses the universal message and audience.
Dear @WranglerI find it profoundly disturbing that trinitarians place their 4th century manmade doctrine as an obstacle to bringing people to Christ. A few months ago, our recently retired pastor gave a sermon talking about how simple Christ's message is: Follow me.
She pointed out that he did not put commonly considered prerequisites as any kind of burden, e.g., repenting of sin, purifying oneself, submitting to sacraments, reading and demonstrating knowledge of Scripture or doctrine or believing in a non-monotheistic God. Just right action - follow God's Anointed. Our job is to bring people to God's Anointed, period. His job is everything else.
This is Christian dogma, what we are willing to die over. Sadly, too many confuse denominational doctrines, which are disputable with proper dogma. I guess some people just cannot handle the simplicity of the universal message: love God, love others.
The hardest obstacles creating biases and conditions is bssed on what we have not yet forgiven, which causes to project this issue onto others.

only God can give commandments
Only God can change the commandments
You say this repeatedly but it is patently not true. Government issue commandments all the time.
