    Wrong, what is taught can be error. Or perhaps you meant to say “what is taught IN THE SCRIPTURE is what is true”…?However, for smart people and for old people what is taught is true, as long as its biblical, scriptural, and the trinity is in fact taught. It doesn't matter if someone is a “dummy”, doesn't matter if they are young, old, smart, or…[Read more]

    Quote (Nick Hassan @ Sep. 01 2008,08:30)Hi E, You say”I believe that the Bible is the final and absolute authority in all matters of faith and practice.” I agree. So if trinity is not written or taught there it is false.The point is that it IS taught in the Bible, (though what difference you are trying to distinguish between what is “written” and…[Read more]

To put it bluntly Constantine and the creators of the Nicene creed are the alpha of that which Jesus prophesied here..Matthew 24:8-148All these are the beginning of birth pains.…[Read more]

    Quote (Nick Hassan @ Sep. 01 2008,06:52)Hi E, If you do choose to believe the bible then teachings such as about a triune god are anathema. Such things are not written there so belief in both the bible and trinity are incompatible.Hji N, as soon as you show me a verse in the bible that specifically and explicitly says “If you do choose to believe…[Read more]

    In the Scriptures the term “first born” of course can mean the literal first born child in a chronological sense, but it can also be a title of honor… now, we know (or we should know) that the Scriptures do not contradict themselves, right?

    The fact is, the B i b l e does mention, explain and teach that God is triune…. the bible does not anywhere specifically state that there would be 66 books and 66 books only, so just getting hung up on the fact that nowhere does the word “trinity” appear in the scriptures is just shallow reasoning, and not only shallow, but arbitrary, since…[Read more]
