So you ARE the spiritually enlightened?I guess their heart is in the wrong place just like most of the religious leaders of the day of Jesus. They were the majority, the loudest, had the most political power, and were the most financed yet the majority of them were enemies of the cross.
I say the majority of them had a heart in the wrong place, but not all. There is Nicodemus who rightly understood that Jesus was a man who God was with (not God who became a man) and Jesus never corrected him, according to John 3:2. However, on the matter of basic spiritual concepts, Nicodemus basically had no idea what he was talking about because he was cut from the same cloth as the rest of the blind and deaf Phariees, yet he wasn't unteachable and unreachable.
I can only imagine the look on Jesus' face when he said "You are Israel’s teacher,” said Jesus, “and you do not understand these things?" The head teacher of Israel was essentially a spiritual baby who seemed to think that "Can he enter his mother’s womb a second time to be born?" was a valid and reasonable question to ask. However, you can see how Nicodemus stood up for Jesus when he said “Does our law convict a man without first hearing from him to determine what he has done?” While Nicodemus was never explicitly said to be a follower of Jesus, it's likely he atleast sympathized with Jesus and did not believe he was guilty of any wrongdoing, contrary to what the bulk majority of them seemed to be saying. You will find very few Trinitarians like this, very few.
So when you continue preaching the teachings of Jesus, don't be surprised if the bulk majority of them simply hate you for it, even among the trinitarian establishment masquerading as the spriritually enlightened.
Hate is not the fruit of Christians. I have noticed that when someone accuses innocent people of hatred, they themselves are usually the ones with the hatred. I don't hate you or anyone and I do believe in the Trinity. Why do you hate Trinitarians?
