    trinity is controversial?

    Ok, let me try it this way! Yeas ago there was a Roman Catholic apologist who said, "The trinity of persons within the unity of nature is defined in terms of "person" and "nature" which are Greek philosophical terms: actually the terms do not appear in the Bible." I said, "Oh Really...? Let's...

    trinity is controversial?

    NO! Look up Luke 23:34 and please tell me if Jesus is praying to Himself? Or read John 12:27-28, who is He praying to here? I could provide other verses but these two will suffice. So, where in the Bible does the ONE God does pray to Himself? How about Genesis 1:26 or Genesis 11:7? Please...

    trinity is controversial?

    Your just not getting it! The word "person" or "persons" does not mean "people." The ones that identifies the three persons of the Trinity as "people" are the cults, which include Unitarians. God is NOT people. Moreover, there is only ONE "being" of God who chose to reveal Himself as three...

    trinity is controversial?

    I appreciate your post but all I'm saying is the word, "aspects" is no substitute for the word "persons." At Genesis 1:1 we are introduced to "God." Then at vs2, "And the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep; and the Spirit of God ( a person) was moving over...

    trinity is controversial?

    Your missing my point. The ONE God has no separate "physical" manifestation other than the Son. in other words, John 1:18 explains, "No man has seen God at anytime; the only begotten God, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has explained Him." IN GOD THE SON, bluto

    trinity is controversial?

    Ah yes, good ole John 14:9. First things first, this verse NOT teaching that Jesus Christ is God the Father as some cults and others believe. God the Father has no separate manifestation from the Son. The Son is the only manifestation and revelation of the Father. What is known of the Father is...

    The Son in Biblical Terminology

    Your flat out wrong. The term "Son of Man" refers to His humanity on His mothers side. The "Son of God" refers to His deity on His Father's side. It's a universal law that all men share the same nature as the father. Since the Father of Jesus Christ is God then he is God by nature. Your a...

    the health gospel..?

    That too is destroyed and one way to show the Word of faith adherents that it is destroyed is to go to 1 Peter 2:24-25. "and He Himself bore our sins in His body on the cross, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness; for by His wounds you are healed." They latch on to this verse to...

    If Jesus Joined This Forum . . .

    The Pharisees ask for a sign at Matthew 16:1-4. Also at John 6:30 and one more good one is at Matthew 12:38-42. What's interesting about this last one is the fact that His disciples remembered it from John 2;19-22. IN GOD YHR SON, bluto

    The angel of the LORD.

    Let me also add that the Hebrew word for angel is "malak." It simply means "messenger." It can also refer to an actual angel as well, the context determines how it is used. For instance at Malachi 3:1, "Behold, I am going to send My "malak/messenger/angel, and he will clear the way before Me...

    The angel of the LORD.

    Nonsense, you need not feel this way. You brought up some very good points. What I learned and found really interesting is how important words are. For instance, there is a difference between the word, "the" and "a/an" angel. The chief grammatical function of "an" or "a" is to connote a thing...

    The angel of the LORD.

    Ok everybody I have to "fess up" that I posted this by playing the Devil's advocate. Notice under my name the letters "da," which stands for Devil's advocate. I wanted to see some of the answers that were given. I am not going to comment on each persons answer but use this opportunity as a...

    The angel of the LORD.

    Are you not aware of the Jewish concept known as "The Law of Agency? That is the status of a person (Known as the agent) and in this case the angel of the Lord is the agent acting by the direction of another, the principal which would be God. In other words, the angel of the Lord is speaking on...

    All Humanity is Required to obey the Torah

    The first thing I would like to say is it would have been nice for you to include some paragraphs in this thread making it a little easier to read. The second thing of note is "who told you Jesus is coming back in 2026?" I ask because Jesus Himself said no one knows the day and the hour but the...

    Why have you forsaken me?

    I believe Jesus was quoting Matthew 27:46 to show the spectators that His crucifixion had been prophesied by David at Psalm 22. Demonstrating that He was in fact the "suffering Servant" that had been promised by the Old Testament prophets. It's important to note that David's immediate reason...
