You still do not understand that the sources of his comments were the Bible verses? So stop denigrating those Bible verses as unbiblical sources.
The Trinity The Touchstone of Truth

umm. Maybe because I'm not fluent in Koine Greek. Maybe because people also make ignorant mistakes even when reading the text in English.
Do an experiment for me. Read the scripture in Russian and tell me how well you understand it. Tell me how good you are at detecting nuance of meaning in the Russian text. The same problems can happen in reading the English in that your comprehension skills may not be as good as it should be when you try to understand the scriptures. God provides a body of believers to help compensate for each of our weaknesses.

The spurious teaching is The Trinity.
Yet another false accusation from you.
Pay attention to what is being written.

So it all boils down to taking the Holy Bible out of our hands and falling prey to ever false teacher under the sun.
No thanks!
I understand the scriptures: I have had peace and strength to overcome difficulties with them. I have won every battle with Satan and my flesh to this day with the Bible. I overcame things I couldn’t overcome before. I will never allow Satan to cast the smallest seed of doubt in my heart.
But perhaps this happens to others:
“When any one heareth the word of the kingdom, and understandeth it not, then cometh the wicked one, and catcheth away that which was sown in his heart. This is he which received seed by the way side.” (Matthew 13:19, KJV)
You will find that all cults have a dirt poor understanding of English Grammar, let alone Greek grammar. They will always gloss over proper grammar structure and comprehension. If you call them out on that then they immediately go into ad hominem mode. It's uncanny how they are all programmed that way.
Look. If Jesus is not God then we are not saved because only God can save. Do you understand?

With all that intellectual prowess it’s amazing that you believe the trinity doctrine.
And how can you behave yourself self like this? Aren’t you aware of these scriptures:
“Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools…” (Romans 1:22, KJV)
“Let no man deceive himself. If any man among you seemeth to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.” (1 Corinthians 3:18-19, KJV)
The trinity certainly is a crafty doctrine.

So which cult are you a part of? Are you a JW, a Unitarian, a Messianic Jew, etc...?
You're projecting again....

you may still have a battle to overcome concerning pride, isolation, self-sufficiency, trust. I can understand reasons for finding many teachings wrong, but it is risky holding to beliefs on your own without working them out with others.
you could try being a little more honest or open. You could say you are more like this group or this other group. Otherwise, people have to ask a thousand questions to get a sense of what you believe and consequently whether to take you as one trying to understand as a Christian or someone who is not of the faith that just wants to tear down hope in Christ.
Just tell me one thing that sets you apart from being a JW, a Unitarian, a Messianic Jew, and all other cults that don't believe that Jesus is God.
Then I presume you are able to explain the manner of justification we have that goes beyond just saying Jesus is just a typical martyr for some belief system.

There’s no risk in believing the Holy Bible alone.
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” (2 Timothy 3:16-17, KJV)
It’s not prideful to defend against unbiblical doctrines with the Holy Bible.
Isolating oneself from the corruption that has just about taken hold of everything in the world is no vice.
I’m not self sufficient. I trust in the Holy Bible and God.
I trust only God’s words contained in the Holy Bible.
thanks for demonstrating the problems I just listed. you pretend you are the sole survivor in this world and that everyone else is just there to deceive you. You deny that your understanding of English could be improved so that you could read scripture better. No one can inform you since you never make mistakes and are above correction.

I haven’t wasted my time studying groups who follow sects. Why would I bother studying a cult?
All I need to know is: IS IT BIBLICAL. PERIOD.
But I do know one of the JW’s lies: they think Jesus is Michael the archangel.
Jesus certainly is not Michael the archangel.
Thanks. You have at least clarified you are not JW. Only 999 questions left. Okay. Kidding on that. But your answer is helpful, especially in the face of people not mentioning their most upper level belief system.

Here’s what I hear in your post:
YOU CANNOT UNDERSTAND THE HOLY BIBLE ON YOUR OWN. FIND A MAN THAT WILL TEACH YOU WHAT ITS REALLY SAYING.
I rebuke that wisdom!
It is written:
“All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.” (2 Timothy 3:16-17, KJV)
