Is 1:18, I'm sure there are examples you could point to. But I don't think this is the best one.Quote Mark 12:2928One of the scribes came and heard them arguing, and recognizing that He had answered them well, asked Him, “What commandment is the foremost of all?” 29Jesus answered, “The foremost is, 'HEAR, O ISRAEL! THE LORD (Kurios) OUR GOD IS…[Read more]

Quote David these scriptures refer to the Holy Spirit as Jehovah not as the finger of God which you have your own interpretation on. There is no other way of honestly looking at it.Where do they do that? Please show me. I commented on the first two scriptures just yesterday. If you feel that the first two scriptures somehow show that God is the…[Read more]

I know. I agree with most of what you say. I'm just saying that I'm not sure this scripture can in good conscience be used as a primary scripture for refruting the false trinity belief.There are so many others.This scripture, as far as I can tell speaks of idol gods, (false gods) and then says that there is really only God, in contrast to these…[Read more]

Nick, I'm not certain Jesus is one of those that is a so CALLED god. Jesus is in every right, a mighty one, God. He isn't simply called a God. He is Mighty God, in scripture. And looking at the context, we see that it is speaking about false “mighty ones,” ones that are CALLED GOD, but really aren't mighty at all. The scriptures call them…[Read more]

Quote Of the Pharisees Jesus states: “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh of a lie he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it”.And so obviously, Jesus was not saying that…[Read more]

GOD'S FINGER:MATTHEW 12:28“But if it is by means of GOD'S SPIRIT that I expel the demons, the kingdom of God has really overtaken YOU.”LUKE 11:20“But if it is by means of GOD'S FINGER I expel the demons, the kingdom of God has really overtaken YOU.”I think calling God's holy spirit “God's finger” helps us to reason out what the holy spirit is. We…[Read more]

Quote The issue David is that you twisted my words for some perceived advantage.So, please do tell me: Tell everyone: What perceived advantage did I gain by changing the phrase: we “can” worship the holy spirit to “we should worship the holy spirit.”? ? ?If the holy spirit is God, one would think that my phrase is more correct than yours.

While some texts refer to the spirit as ‘witnessing,’ ‘speaking,’ or ‘saying’ things, other texts make clear that it spoke through persons, having no personal voice of its own. (Compare Heb 3:7; 10:15-17; Ps 95:7; Jer 31:33, 34; Ac 19:2-6; 21:4; 28:25.)Look at this text again. If you're trying to equate Jehovah with the holy spirit, you are mis…[Read more]

Quote DavidIll post a previous post like you do!John 1:1″In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” The “Word” refers to Jesus (v17), the only begotten of the Father who became flesh and dwelt among us (v14).
