I probably shouldn't get into this. Each time I do it turns into an epic time consuming battle that lasts up to a month in which the obnoxious Oneness heretics are completely refuted despite remaining in deep denial afterwards.
If oneness was all we had to deal with, this forum would be relatively mild, to say the least. They can be dealt with.

John 1:1-3 [SUP]1 [/SUP]In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [SUP]2 [/SUP]The same was in the beginning with God. [SUP]3[/SUP]All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Isaiah 9:6-7 [SUP]6 [/SUP]For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. [SUP]7 [/SUP]Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
Mark54, I noticed you bypassed this posting completely. You haven't answered my other question either.

ya...polytheism.
Jesus is the first mini-god, and we are the other min-gods.
Do you utterly condemn as unfit to be a minister any preacher who will not stand in the pulpit and plainly state what to you is the foundational belief of the faith, and one that will not plainly state from the pulpit if a person believes jesus is the son of God, but not God Himself they cannot be saved with that belief, and are therefore damned and will go to hell(your belief)

For I am assuming you passionately believe it is the fundamental responsibility and obligation of a minister to plainly state from the pulpit what is and what is not acceptable belief unto salvation concenring the person of who Christ is and the consequences of getting it wrong

Will you answer the above now Zone?
FORTHRIGHTLY
Doesn't it cut you up inside every time a mniister refuses to plainly state from the pulpit what to you is the core of Christian faith
And is there not anguish in your heart if a minister plainly refuses to state to their flock loudly and clearly what is and what is not acceptable belief as to who Christ is unto salvation and the consequences of getting it worng

Are you not grieved and driven to despair for the flock where this is not plainly and clearly stated from the pulpit

You should be, i would be if I believed what you did

Personally I could never sit in a church if the mniister refused to plainly state salvational belief plainly and clearly and the consequences of getting ot wrong, that's just my opinion though

Can you give me one plain verrse of scripture where it is stated
Christ is the one true God Himself?
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." John 1:1

Can you give me one plain verse of scripture that states
A person must believe Christ is God Himself in order to inherit eternal life?
"I told you that you will die in your sins; for unless you believe that I am, you will die in your sins." John 8:24

Can you tell me why the Apostles Peter, James, John and Paul failed woefully their readers by not plainly telling them they must believe Christ is GOD himself unto salvation?
"Have this attitude in yourself which was also in Christ Jesus, who, although he existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself taking on the form of a bondservant, and being made in the likeness of men." Phil. 2:5-7 - Paul

"Simeon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus Christ. To those who have obtained a faith of equal standing with ours by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ." 2 Peter 1:1 - Peter

"In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." John 1:1 - John

"My brothers, show no partiality as you hold the faith of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Lord of glory." James 2:1

Excuse me, but how many conversations can I be expected to have at one time
My advice would be to forget swapping scripturtes, I have probabaly had all the ones you can place before me placed in the past anyways.

My only beef here, is the salvational belief unto eternal life, show me plain scruipture to show me my belief is wrong

And I know if we had a scripture quoting contest you would ignore much of what I placed before you. I am past that stage. I just want to know the scripture people have that states a person must believe Christ is God himself unto salvation

Interesting that when I produce plain scripture of Christ's words concerning this subject, you weant to do a theological examination of them so they end up saying something completely different from what was plainly state

But it seems you want me to accept your scriptures as written

Sigh Sigh

If I have time later I will respond to the
'Great God and Saviour quote'

But it seems I am expected to have discourse with half a dozen people at once.
I ain't that sharp ya know!

You get 2 out of 10 for trying to answer the difficult question. That was for attempting an answer!
You get no more points because you will not passionately keep to your stance on this website where ministers in Trinitarian churches are concerned

No points for deflection or fudge

As for your above verses of scripture, you have not answered my question as to why, the Apostles failED to plainly Inform their readers what must be believed to inherit eternal life

Individual verses of scriture are pointless. Whatever you bring forth I can reply to, and then I simply place others before you
My beef, is in people who will not accept the biblical requirement unto salvation. Give me scripture to show me I am wrong
For I can give you very plain scripture to show you I am right
In fact, you have not one verse of scripture from the entire bible that states what you believe must be believed in order for a person to inherit eternal life
And as you cannot respond to my oft repeated question, I am left no choice but to believe you could not care a less that ministers will not preach plainly what to you is the foundational belief of Christianity from the pulpit, or to plainly tell people what is and what is not acceptable belief as to who Christ is unto salvation and the consequences of getting it wrong
Your right i couldnt care less. Its your issue not mine.

Your respnse was ill timed bearing in mind what my reply to Hopespring referred to

For you have refused to condemn as unfit to preach(what the post referred to) those who will not plainly tell their flock the salvational belief required from the pulpit concerning who Christ is and the consequences of gertting it wrong(according to your belief)

Hi Cfultz

All I will say is this. Does it not concern you in the slightest that people, and this is true, in effect tell others they will be damned and go to hell for standing on the plain words of christ when he walked this earth.
I am far from perfect, but the assaults on websites like this people receive for standing on the plain words of Christ sre horrendous
I repeat, this is only an internet thing(based on Trinitarian churches in the UK)
The ministers don't demand it from the pulpits, and the vast majority of Christians in churches would think the statements made on these websites are ludicrous and potty
That Cfultz is the truth
Totally untrue. You teach 1/2 of the plain teaching of Jesus. In fact when i gave you Jesus very words
that He is God you said they meant nothing. Ha

Trivial fact. Everytime one like you comes to cc. They start talking about how they are soon
probably gona get banned. Then poof they get banned. self prophecy?

Like i said, Jesus is the Son of God. And Jesus Christ is God. And your trying to say that its a shell
game and souls are not going to be saved if they believe Jesus Christ is God.

Well thats both foolish and unbiblical. Your the one uncaring Mark. Your not teaching the whole
council of God. Your stuck on an issue that divides and your enjoying yourself in the limelight
which is what motivates most cult teachers.

QUOTE]

Where are Jesus words where he statetd he is the one true God? Please produce them

I know Christ stated the following

Now this is eternal life, that they may know you(the Father) the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent

Please give me the plain words Christ spoke that contradicted JOHN 17:3
Thanks Abiding

I wondered how long it would take for the plain lies to surface
Please produce the post I wrote that confirms I believe anyone cannot be saved who believes Christ is GOD
Thanks

If it bothered me to get banned, I would not be discussing this subject now
However, i repeat. I have stuck rigidly to the biblical requirement for salvation and confirmed I believe the divinity of the Father is in the son, via the Spirit of God's prescence dwelling in the Son
