Not Afraid To Stand
Jesus is not the Father but as one with the Father.
I am sorry to say that your position on the trinity is so and i think it's to do with a dictatorial perception of the Bible. but could be some how just some sort of idolatry ?
What denomination are you.
You are pushing a OT stance.
Oh yeah? You think it's some type of idolatry!!!!? Tell me, if Jesus is only 1/3 of the Godhead, how the heck can he really be the King of kings?!!!!! I call that idolatry! The worse thing about it is, it's not blatant, but carefully covered up! IF YOU DON'T MAKE JESUS LORD OF ALL, THEN HE IS NOT LORD AT ALL!!!!! In fact, if all three are co-equal, then neither are ALL-POWERFUL. WHO THEN REALLY IS YOUR GOD?
I am a Believer. Who are you?
Really? Since when did the OT become of no use to us? Ok, ok, I understand. You want NT! Sure!
1Co_8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
Please note the comma, changes the meaning of the sentence. Notice something else: The Father made EVERYTHING. Jesus made EVERYTHING. If both made EVERYTHING, then it is completely logical to say that they are exaclty the SAME!!!! Jesus is the Father because the Father is just a title!
Eph_4:6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
Umm, I beg your pardon, but do you mean to tell me that there is two spirits, the Father and the Holy Ghost in me? NO! They are exactly the same: the spirit of Jesus! Ephesians 4:4 says that there is ONE Spirit! Philippians 1:19 says the Spirit of Jesus! Therefore the Spirit of Jesus, the Father, and the Holy Ghost are all the same because there is ONE Spirit, undivided.
Dear friend, the God of the OT is EXACTLY the same as the NT! Always has, still is, always will.
1Ti 6:14 That thou keep this commandment without spot, unrebukeable, until the appearing of our Lord Jesus Christ:
1Ti 6:15 Which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords;
1Ti 6:16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.
You will never be able to get past what Paul declares here to Timothy. He said that Jesus was the ONLY ruler (potentate), that Jesus was THE KING and THE LORD, that Jesus was the ONLY IMMORTAL! If you want to hang on to your precious Trinity, fine, but if that is the case, just remember that ONLY Jesus is the ruler, the King, the Lord, and the Immortal. That means that both the Father and the Holy Ghost are SUBJECT to Jesus! I think you understand the Bible well enough to understand that such a view is untenable. Therefore, Jesus IS the Father, Jesus IS the Son, and Jesus IS the Holy Ghost! Glory to his name.
According to the Scripture, Jesus is the ONLY RULER, the KING of kings, the LORD of lords, and the ONLY IMMORTAL!
WELL the point is you are coming at it all wrong. one that the delinquent Jewish religion would like to push for one.
The reason why i call them delinquent is because they had the opportunity to go forward but rejected the truth of Israel.
I'll tell you what the biggest obstacle to Jews coming to Jesus today is: the TRINITY!!!! They can accept the fact that Jesus is the ONE TRUE God, but they have a really tough time accepting the swindling, man-made doctrine of Trinity! They understand it as blasphemy, and that is EXACTLY what it is! It replaces Jesus' rightful position as God over ALL!
Actions, especially God's actions, speak louder than words...to those who seek the truth and wish to know His heart.
To others the ways of evasion, deceit and disbelief pave the way to hell's heart.
Seems to be from God's actions that he is the ONLY ONE! It seems to be that he fused himself into a body of flesh and walked amongst us as a man! That man was crucified, buried, and rose from the dead!
That man is the ONLY ruler, the King of kings, the Lord of lords, the ONLY IMMORTAL!
