Unisage.. you never have a thought that's not in the Bible? I think that that's a really ridiculous statement.
If I know something I will state it as a fact. If it is a thought I will portray it as such. If one did not think one would discover nothing!
Furthermore, can you please show me one verse in the Bible where the Bible is called the Word of God. There isn't one because the Word of God is Jesus. And you talk about me! lol
May 2, 2007 at 7:08 pm#51239NickHassanParticipantHi Oxy,
We can have our own thoughts and opinions but we dare not teach them as truth unless we find it written. Trinity is not written. It should not be taught by those who fear God.May 2, 2007 at 8:16 pm#51240Worshipping JesusParticipantQuote (Nick Hassan @ May 02 2007,21:41) Quote (WorshippingJesus @ May 02 2007,12:35) Quote (Nick Hassan @ May 02 2007,10:14) Hi W,

NHNo I dont believe God is Spirit who has a Spirit.
Where is this written!
There is “One Spirit”!
Hi W,
Is the ONE Spirit the Spirit of God?
Is this the ONE SPIRIT that filled Christ?
So does the ONE SPIRIT also include Christ?
Is Christ the man filled also with himself as Spirit?
Is this ONE Spirit a person in God?
Is this person in God also the Spirit of God?
Was Christ filled with three as one Spirit?
That makes four.

9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that *the Spirit of God* dwell in you. Now if any man have not the *Spirit of Christ*, he is none of his.
10 And *if Christ be in you*, the body is dead because of sin; but *the Spirit is life* because of righteousness.
11 But if the *Spirit of him* that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies *by his Spirit* that dwelleth in you.1 Cor 12:13
For *by one Spirit* are we all baptized into one body, whether [we be] Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into *one Spirit*.1 Cor 12:11
But all these worketh that *one and the selfsame Spirit*, dividing to every man severally as he will.Eph 4:4
There is one body, and *one Spirit*, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;Do you see more than One Spirit in these verses?

How about these words from Ignatius which was a disciple of John…
The Epistle of Ignatius to the Ephesians
Chapter VII.—Beware of false teachers.
http://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/anf01.v.ii.vii.htmlFor some are in the habit of *carrying about the name [of Jesus Christ] in wicked guile*, while yet they practise things unworthy of God, whom ye must flee as ye would wild beasts. For they are ravening dogs, who bite secretly, against whom ye must be on your guard, inasmuch as they are men who can scarcely be cured. There is one Physician who is possessed both of flesh and spirit; both made and not made; *God existing in flesh*; true life in death; both of Mary and of God; first passible and then impassible, *even Jesus Christ our Lord*.
But some most worthless persons are in the habit of carrying about the name [of Jesus Christ] in wicked guile, while yet they practise things unworthy of God, and hold opinions contrary to the doctrine of Christ, to their own destruction, and that of those who give credit to them, whom you must avoid as ye would wild beasts. For “the righteous man who avoids them is saved for ever; but the destruction of the ungodly is sudden, and a subject of rejoicing.”535535 Prov. x. 25, Prov. xi. 3. For “they are dumb dogs, that cannot bark,”536536 Isa. lvi. 10 raving mad, and biting secretly, against whom ye must be on your guard, since they labour under an incurable disease. But our Physician is the only true God, the unbegotten and unapproachable, the Lord of all, the Father and Begetter of the only-begotten Son. *We have also as a Physician the Lord our God, Jesus the Christ*, the only-begotten Son and Word, before time began,537537 Or, “before the ages.” but who afterwards became also man, of Mary the virgin. For “the Word was made flesh.”538538 John i. 14. Being incorporeal, He was in the body; being impassible, He was in a passible body; being immortal, He was in a mortal body; being life, He became subject to corruption, that He might free our souls from death and corruption, and heal them, and might restore them to health, when they were diseased with ungodliness and wicked lusts.And
Chapter XV.—Exhortation to confess Christ by silence as well as speech.
http://www.ccel.org/ccel/schaff/anf01.v.ii.xv.html*Our Lord and God, Jesus Christ*, the Son of the living God, first did and then taught, as Luke testifies, “whose praise is in the Gospel through all the Churches.”594594 2 Cor. viii. 18. There is nothing which is hid from the Lord, but our very secrets are near to Him. Let us therefore do all things as those who have Him dwelling in us, that we may be His temples,595595 1 Cor. vi. 19. and He may be in us as God. Let Christ speak in us, even as He did in Paul.

” And there is also one Paraclete. For “there is also,” saith, “one Spirit,” since “we have been called in one hope of our calling.” And again, “We have drunk of one Spirit,” with what follows. And it is manifest that all these gifts “worketh one and the self-same Spirit.” There are not then either three Fathers, or three Sons, or three Paracletes, but one Father, and one Son, and one Paraclete. Wherefore also the Lord, when He sent forth the apostles to make disciples of all nations, *commanded them to “baptize in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit,” not unto one having three names, nor into three who became incarnate, *but into three persons possessed of equal honour* [one name]*.

NHTell me something!
If scriptures are not to be compared and put together for confirmation or to form doctrine, then what if the only scripture that you had was Jesus giving up the ghost on the cross.
Would that be enough?
Why do you make these foolish arguments that truth is not found in scripture unless there is an exact verse for it.
You are being hypocritical because you have formed doctrine of your own by piecing scriptures together.
Is it because you can not scripturally refute the truth being spoken so this is the only response that you have?
I think it is!
Tell me in all sincerity NH, if all the doctrine that you have and believe and defend has an unambiguous scripture that says it? Whithout pieces of scriptures to form your truth?
Is all of your doctrine like this?
If not then stop being a hypocrite!

Oxy If I'm not mistaken you believe that the Father is greater than the Son and I suppose that the Son is greater than the Holy Spirit. Is that right?If that is the case then you don't believe in the Trinity. The Trinity doctrine states three EQUAL persons in one. Seems that the Lord is trying to show you about the Trinity but you refuse to let go and just changed it so you wouldn't have to let the tradition go.
Oxy did you give your child a name? What a foolish question! Of course you did. Then why would Not God give a third person a name. He named His Son, He has a name. So why would He not give the third person a name of HIS own? Holy Spirit is not the Spirit's name that's what He is.
The Holy Spirit IS Jehovah. The apostles baptized in the name of Jesus. Jesus had the Spirit without measure. You baptize in the name of Jesus then you baptize in the name of the Father and if the Father then the Holy Spirit as well.
In luke 10:21 The Holy Spirit filled Jesus and He began to speak to the Father Because the Father was there Jesus knew who the Holy Spirit was and IS. He is the Father!
Luk 10:21 At that time Jesus was filled with joy by the Holy Spirit and said, “Father, Lord of heaven and earth! I thank you because you have shown to the unlearned what you have hidden from the wise and learned. Yes, Father, this was how you were pleased to have it happen.
We cannot receive the Holy Spirit without Jesus because He paid for our sins. Therefore the Spirit is sent in His Name.
Joh 14:26 But the Comforter, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things and bring all things to your remembrance, whatever I have said to you.
We are God's children just as Jesus is God's first born!
Jesus is not my Father He is my Brother.Rom 8:29 For whom He foreknew, He also predestinated to be conformed to the image of His Son, for Him to be the First-born among many brothers.
Rom 8:30 But whom He predestinated, these He also called; and whom He called, those He also justified. And whom He justified, these He also glorified.
Rom 8:31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?Scripture says Jesus is the First born among MANY BROTHERS. That's us, the many brothers. Where does it say that Jesus is our Father? Jesus said to pray to OUR Father in heaven.
We are as Jesus. That's what we are supposed be “as Jesus” a child of God.
If you didn't have the Holy Spirit then you would not have any of your Father in heaven. If you had none of the Father then He would not be your Father.
Jesus was born of the Holy Spirit! Didn't Jesus' Father have a NAME?You understand that God is a Spirit? Then believe God IS the Spirit.
We have a spirit but we cannot send our spirit as God can to influence other people. We must physically speak. One day we won't need a tongue! God will be all in all! God is in some NOW! But the time will soon be here when everyone will have God.HE:
