John sent seven churches a message that existed in that day. It doesn’t say that it was all the Churches or some of them and it doesn’t matter. The letters were addressed to specific locations that existed. But you say this doesn’t matter as it is all an allegory.  Thus he might as well have sent a message/letter to the Church of the moon b…[Read more]

This video does a good job at refuting the interpretation of some of these so-called Trinity proof verses.

Good post Jael.

Are you that dumb? Sorry, I don’t mean to insult you. Nobody’s saying that! Of course you or Thomas could give thanks to God, even when you are talking to Jesus, but that verse DOES NOT say that. That verse clearly says that Thomas answered Jesus or Thomas said to Jesus, and so whatever he said there, he was addressing Jesus.

What is so dumb abou…[Read more]

Brian, I cannot neither confirm or deny what you have said regarding the Hebrew paradigm due to lack of time, but it is certainly something I will look into when I have finished reading your post. But there are scriptures written in Greek that say that only the righteous will inherit eternal life while the wicked will eternally perish. These…[Read more]

I know that Jesus wouldn’t have broken the law because he said to render to Caesar what was his. Would Jesus pay his taxes? If he practiced what he preaches then yes he likely did. If voting was not mandatory, then he may or may not vote because either way wouldn’t be breaking the law. I do not know what Jesus would do, but I know he would follow…[Read more]

Besides scripture I can learn from the past from what I myself observe. For example, if a place had a majority of Muslims then Sharia Law is likely to exist to a greater extent. This would mean greater persecution for followers of the way. Thus I could easily reason that by letting millions of Muslims into a certain country or region would…[Read more]

That seems like a different and unrelated point you are making.

Back to the allegory. Because something is an allegory, it doesn’t rule out that it is not actually the case either.

You have no proof that Satan doesn’t have an actual throne, so I can only go by what scripture says.

To the angel of the church in Pergamum write:
‘I know where y…[Read more]

Your point is very easily refuted by the fact that IT IS WRITTEN that “And Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!””

If I spoke to Jesus, am I not also allowed or able to give God the glory just because I spoke to him?

always giving thanks to God the Father for everything, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

So because Thomas…[Read more]

Thomas was a Jew, and he would not have exclaimed like that because that’s a sort of speaking God’s name in vain.

So those examples I gave in scripture where Jesus and God are addressed by Paul and Peter and where Jesus exclaims that his his Father is his God and our God mean nothing? I suppose I might as well be debating with a Muslim now who wil…[Read more]

Well obviously I was never condoning false history. Did I need to explain that?

Right, so this isn’t talking about a throne but is talking about something else?

The one who conquers, I will grant him to sit with me on my throne, as I also conquered and sat down with my Father on his throne.

Jesus said to pay to Caesar what is his and to give God what is his.

If it was mandatory to vote, then Jesus would break the law?
