    Are you a Trinitarian, and if so, can you defend the doctrine?

    Clarify your remarks. Are you claiming that Jesus isn't Yahweh? I think what you are saying is that Jesus is some lesser "god". It is true that "elohim" can refer to different beings, including angels. However, to claim that Jesus isn't Yahweh is a heresy. The Father is Yahweh. The Son is...

    Does Oneness theology (Modalism) teach a "sock puppet" view of God's nature?

    What academic source are you claiming? I"m not asking you to produce a screen print. I can't read it anyways.

    Does Oneness theology (Modalism) teach a "sock puppet" view of God's nature?

    No. I don't have a face to face relationship with my uttered words. I have face to face relationships with other PERSONS. And, if I claimed that Jesus came to be at a certain point in time, rather than always existing in a face-to-face relationship with the Father, I would be a false teacher...

    Does Oneness theology (Modalism) teach a "sock puppet" view of God's nature?

    Scripture supports the doctrine, therefore it is true. Additionally, you cannot support your claim. Even the words of church fathers are not adequate to support this claim, because I can find other church fathers that support the other position. The primary issue with regards to Oneness is...

    Are you a Trinitarian, and if so, can you defend the doctrine?

    Again, Oneness people deny the interpersonal activity between the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It's as simple as that. If Scripture teaches that there is interpersonal activity, it is error to claim that there are not more than one person.

    Does Oneness theology (Modalism) teach a "sock puppet" view of God's nature?

    I suppose your source is unbiased, or is it a Oneness teacher? I think I know the answer. Like I told you, these cults are experts at twisting facts, if there are any facts at all, in order to support their views.

    Does Oneness theology (Modalism) teach a "sock puppet" view of God's nature?

    You are quoting sources without giving the source. Why should we accept your source, since it is likely a Oneness authority? Why didn't you refer to the author of the commentary? If Sabin or some other Oneness person provided a reference, why wouldn't you mention his name? It is meaningless...

    Are you a Trinitarian, and if so, can you defend the doctrine?

    Right..I was an anti-Trinitarian when i was saved. It took me ten years to learn that the group was wrong on that issue, and many more. I was saved all the time, though. I think that many anti-Trinitarians are not real believers, though....but others are just confused and belong to Jesus...

    Are you a Trinitarian, and if so, can you defend the doctrine?

    When you use the phrase "Most High" is this an indication that you are an Arian of some sort? This is a biblical phrase, but typically those who use it, in my experience, are Arians who are claiming Jesus was a lesser god.

    Does Oneness theology (Modalism) teach a "sock puppet" view of God's nature?

    I feel sad that you believe the narrative of Oneness Pentecostalism. It is a false, paranoid narrative similar to the one I inherited from my religious upbringing as an Armstrongite. Concerning your involvement with law enforcement, I am glad you are not involved with the sorts of groups we...

    Are you a Trinitarian, and if so, can you defend the doctrine?

    Why does it take Oneness Pentecostals years to sort out their misunderstandings, or to clarify their thinking?

    Does Oneness theology (Modalism) teach a "sock puppet" view of God's nature?

    Why are you trying to deceive people? Here is what you said: But those who say: 'There was a time when he was not;' and 'He was not before he was made;' and 'He was made out of nothing,' who affirm the Son of God is another person or another substance' or 'essence,' or 'The Son of God is...

    Are you a Trinitarian, and if so, can you defend the doctrine?

    The basis for the Trinity is biblical, and the deeper a person understands it, the more they see the underlying Scriptural rubric.

    Are you a Trinitarian, and if so, can you defend the doctrine?

    By the way, I think the bondage to false organizations is a spiritual one. Prayer would be strongly encouraged. The more I am facing issues beyond my sphere of influence, the more I am realizing the only answer is to pray about them. Such as the BLM issue. I am praying for our government's...

    Are you a Trinitarian, and if so, can you defend the doctrine?

    I think it's appropriate to define the Trinity first and then identify which issues he has with it. 1. There is one God. 2. The Father is God. 3. Jesus Christ is God. 4. The Holy Spirit is God. 5. These three are distinct, coessential, coeternal Persons. With a JW, they believe that...

    OK..I'm not sure if that means you support terrorist activity or not. If it means that you are assisting police forces in your country, good. That still doesn't change your bad theology :D

    By the way, you have a lot of hubris, expecting that I am to reply to you within 24 hours or you have somehow been slighted. I am not obligated to reply to you at all. Like I have said, casting pearls before swine is not something I am interested in doing.

    Does Oneness theology (Modalism) teach a "sock puppet" view of God's nature?

    By the way, for other folks, I will note to you that just_truth has been sending me private messages urging responses to his questions. As I have already stated, I am more concerned about Black Lives Matters and their activities, which I believe will ultimately lead to an attempt to overthrow...

    What is your point? Is your point that the original apostles' creed was an enshrined explanation which could not be improved upon?

    Does Oneness theology (Modalism) teach a "sock puppet" view of God's nature?

    The original Nicene creed was modified in AD 381 because the new enemies went from being the Arians to the Semi-Arians. The church's clarification on their theology of God was progressive. I don't see what the point is, anyways. Nicene was not meant to be the final statement, that could not...
