Quote However blind faith can overcome this and does in the vast majority of believer's. Your statement reminds me of this scripture. Maybe this has something to do with it.2 CORINTHIANS 4:4“. . . . the god of this system of things has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, that the illumination of the glorious good news about the Christ, who i…[Read more]

Quote DavidSee. My point affirmed!WJ By the Bible. In extremely clear to understand language. This Jesus being “one” with God is essentially defined and explained in this other scripture. That being the case, this scripture really has no bearing on the trinity belief. It has nothing to do with Jesus being God or part of a trinity. I forgot…[Read more]

How unloving and unjust Jehovah God would be if before we were born, he predetermined the course we would take and then held us responsible for our actions! He does not do this, for “God is love,” and “all his ways are justice.” (1 John 4:8; Deuteronomy 32:4) Having given us freedom of choice, he did not at the same time ‘determine from eternity…[Read more]

After all, this thread is called: “Yahweh is God's name.”Thus far, you haven't demonstrated why Yahweh is any better than any of…[Read more]
