Cathy don't think because of the catholic church believed in the trinity and you feel that now that you've found them to be a deceitful sect, that trinitarianism is false as well.One of the devils greatest powers is to mix truth's with falsehood to steer people off track.Fortunately trinitarianism isn't one of those things.So please don't condemn…[Read more]

Amen TheThinker, plus this is a lame subject that we should not have to go over with anti-trinitarians.It is littered through out the bible that Jesus was able to forgive sins. How else is he our mediator? What was his blood for?He claimed it himself, and many times did the jews want to murder him for it.That's why I didn't spend much time with…[Read more]

But since I am reading more Scriptures it comes easier.Also if Jesus was divine when He waked the earth, He could not have died for us. He now however is divine. IreneIf Jesus…[Read more]

Quote (942767 @ Aug. 14 2009,09:13)Hi RM:I fail to understand why there has to be such a thing as the “trinity doctrine” when there are unambiguous scriptures that tell us that Jesus is the Christ the Son of the Living God(Matt. 16:13-17), and that the Holy Spirit is God's Spirit (1 Co. 2:10).This(the trinity) is a man made doctrine based on…[Read more]

And Again Cato, Addressing your questions which mine are never addressed,”If Jesus was God how could he be tempted, have gaps in knowledge, have need of baptisim or could any gaze upon his countenance?

BTW Cato, EVERYTHING a human can understand ABOUT GOD is paradoxical.Go research the definition of a paradox.2 seemingly contradictions that reveal a nonetheless “Truth”So when you say an infinite being cannot be made finite…you are right…it is a paradox….but in that, it is truth
