HI TT, is it that you think Lord means God? I hope that is not the case. Women of the bible commonly refer to men as their Lord. Christ being a son over his own house was made Lord and Christ by God. Acts 2:36..Heb 3:6

As you said in the original post, Christ, showed us how to pray, ie. to the father asking in his name. Use that example as how to pray and you'll see that John will never say pray to Christ. I think Nick has put it as clear as posible

peace be unto you all, TTGod, according to you exists by three persons. God=3However this scripture does not say that the son was sent by the father and his spirit.The person talking says he was sent by Lord God and his SpiritIf God=3, spirit=1 and the person speaking=1What we have here is 3+1+1=5 or is this also equal to 1Your doctrine teaches…[Read more]

WJ, Why just a trinity, what about the seven spirits of God that are bowing before his throne in revelation?Could they be seen as” God the father, God the son, God Holy Spirit and God the seven spirits?”

Jodi, I understand the point you are making and the angle at which you put this mystery into perspective. However, in John chapter 17 Christ is praying to God and says some very important things. In verse 4 and 5 he says (4) I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. (5) And now , O Father, Glorify me…[Read more]

Hi Jodi, I understand clearly your explanation of Philipians Chapter 2. What I don't understand however is your use of Christ coming from the seed of David. Is it that you believe Joseph to be his biological father or did I miss your point?Could you also give your view on Hebrews 1:10,11 as I asked in my previous post, thanks.Peace be unto you…[Read more]

Hi Jodi, also the scripture you quoted in Hebrews 1:10,11. And You Lord in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, and the Heavens are the works of thy hands. They will perish but you will remain. I believe that this scripture is God speaking to Christ saying ” And you lord in the beginning laid the foundation of the earth.”Am I right or…[Read more]

Hi Jodi, thanks for the information. According to Philipians 2:, Christ was in the form of God, and did not consider it robbery to be equal to God, yet made of himself no reputation taking the image of man………. This scripture suggest that he was in the form of God. Could you please then say when was it so. Please explain to me I really want to know.

Thanks for replies, I believe there is one God who is the father. 1Corinth 8:5,6 I believe that Jesus Christ is his son John 3:16 Christ who is the word became flesh, but I do believe there was a point before creation he did not exist Colossians 3:10 The scripture says that the word was God,not is God.

Hi all, the trinity doctrine seems to be right because they added Holy before it. What I realize is that it allows someone to confess anything about Christ and about God. Bd,you just confessed that Christ is your God, but he disagrees with you. In John 20:17 Christ clearly states who is his God and our God. 1Corinthians 8:5 clearly states who is…[Read more]

Gene, there is a baptism of the spirit, I'm not disagreeing. Your points of cleaning inside the cup are also correct but it does not stand alone. Why are we suppose to be baptized in the name of Jesus, this is the simple answer, because the apostle's did so not of their own accord but by christ through the Holy spirit as was promised. I realise…[Read more]

Peace be unto you all in the name of God the father and our Lord Jesus Christ. No doubt there is one baptism, one faith one lord etc… This one baptism means that there is only one way to be baptised , that is in the name of Jesus. Nick is correct the apostle's did not do their own thing but were taught all things by the Holy Ghost. The doctrine…[Read more]
