Prove it with scripture.

A lot of us want to see what you see.

We see no Trinity in scripture, if we need enlightment, give it to us.

I'm going to tel you point blank: I gave up with anti-trinitarians a long time ago- I don't go too far with this debate anymore than I do with evolutionists.

If you compare and contrast Isaiah and the New Testament- particularly John and Luke- you cannot come to any other conclusion without contradicting the Bible.

But you all will never accept it, because you all are not trying to reach the truth of the matter but rather your preconception.
You aren't humble enough to admit you are wrong :plain:

The Trinity

I'm going to tel you point blank: I gave up with anti-trinitarians a looong time ago.

If you go between Isaiah and the New Testament- particularly John and Luke- you cannot come to any other conclusion without contradicting the Bible.

But you all will never accept it, because you all are not trying to reach the truth of the matter but rather your preconception.
You aren't humble enough to admit you are wrong :plain:

You gave up because your argument is weak and baseless.

One should never give up on defending their faith.

I gave up your faith in the Trinity for truth a long time ago.

If I am wrong at least it was my thoughts and not the lies of my forefathers. Christ did not preach trinity, he preached his Father was the only true God.

I've said my piece- you go on and compare Isaiah, John, and Luke Broseph :plain:

It's not something God demands for salvation- it's just theology.
But it is nevertheless an important thing to recognize Christ as who he is

Friend it is ok to disagree, that is why we both like this forum. We learn from each other. I am well aware that Christ is the Son of God. And I am also aware that Christ has a God above him.

You'd be a fan of the Adoptionist view, which Origen noted in his theology- he was never declared anathema, but never canonized into sainthood either.
The Early Church had a lot of respect for him- the thing is, he wasn't right on account of Jesus' being.

But that's how I feel- I simply don't see any way out of it looking at the scriptures.
But to each his own, I guess we'll find out when Azrael pays us a visit :)

Keypurr, would you agree with me that a created being cannot be God, and that we or anyone should not worship a created being as God or treat one as God?

A created being can be a form of God if given the fullness of his God. And if the Father says to worship him as Lord then we should do so.

The logos is the express image of his creator. It is the first of all creatures yet was given power of his God. The power to create. The worlds.

So you're saying that a created being can be God?

I have not read Origen words for years, but I questioned what he wrote. I have no respect for the church that misguided the folks in the early years , 100-400ad.

The Catholic Church has always had a lineage of dogma and doctrine underneath the declarations of the popes.

And they are what gave birth to the Reformation.

Not a lot of people understand this, but it's true. From Augustine to Calvin brother :plain:

I love a lot of RC folks, my grandmother was one. But I see the RCC as a major distortion of truth. Luther and Calvin were not much better. The true church was under attack in the first century. Your Popes have no truth in them.

No, a created being can be a FORM of God. Phil 2.

A form of God is not God but a FORM of. God used the Spirit Son to create everything in heaven and earth. Yet this Son is a creature. Firstborn of all creatures.

Should we worship created beings?

I have no popes.

I'm a Calvinist :)

And
America become a transfigured mass of heresy- don't be duped into that myriad of nonsense.
I got love for my fellow countrymen- but damn if they aren't skewed in the theology department :plain:

Read post 5613.

A creature was elevated to King of King, Lord of Lords. Every knee will bend to him. Is that not you read?

Was the man Jesus a creature?

Was the spirit in him a creature?

I think so. The Bible tells me that.

Keypurr, can I just get a straight yes or no from you? Is it wrong to worship a created being?
