Thomas... My Lord and my God

[Fred]

What difference doesn't make if my answer is yes or no? I assume it's going to be straight skepticism either way. Stick with the Scripture.

You're crashing out big time!

You're crashing out big time!

Sticking with Scripture is your idea of crashing out. I am totally not surprised, as usual.

Your massive confusion is a total wipe out.

I just said stick with the Scripture. Fred's response is that is "crashing out" and a "total wipe out."

Problem is, I get your terrible teaching alongside the Scripture.

I'll take forth the precious from the vile (Jer. 15:19).

I haven't made any teachings, as I just repeat what the Bible says. It's your teachings regarding the trinity that are completely made up out of thin air.

I think it just dawned on me that you all reallllllly don't like what the Bible says about how there is no trinity. It makes sense now. I believe I have said it before, but you are free to keep your religion if you wish, but leave our Scripture out of it. Stick with your creeds and whatnot.

 

[synergy]

Look at it this way, they never referred to a trinity any time they mentioned God in the Bible. You seem to be catching on to that.

I caught on many decades ago that our One God is a Trinity (3 Persons). Let me remind you how you managed to mangle John 1:1, the English language, the Greek language, and even general common sense:

1. You have difficulty understanding the grammatical fact that pronouns implicitly point back to the Primary Subject as their Antecedent.
2. Your categorical mistake when you think that partaking of an item transforms your nature into that item.
3. Your ignorance of the Greek word κοινωνία,
4. Your ignorance of Greek neuter pronouns in 1 John 1.
5. You said that "the Word is not actually God" which flat out contradicts John 1:1c that says "the Word was God".
6. At no time does Jesus ever have to "partake" of divine nature. That's because he is God to begin with (John 1:1c).
7. The REV translates from God only knows which originals when they dreamt up the phrase "what God was the word was".

You couldn't have dug a deeper unitarian grave even if you tried.

Reptenence is often associated with a changing of one's mind about sin, but not exlcusively. It really just means to change one's mind about anything. Scripture states God can repent (change His mind) and Jesus took the water baptism of repentence as well. Jesus changed his mind about living the life he wanted to live as a builder with Joseph to serve God in God's ministry instead. Unless, of course, you think Jesus only did a fake water baptism. It would seem that's the route you must chose.

One word: hyperliteralist.

Even though the one word was sufficient, I will add this info.
We are not told of him saying "I repent of my sins." That is just your necessary injection into the account to discredit Jesus. Jesus could also ask John simply to baptize him. Thus there is no reason to take your interpretation as trustworthy, especially since it denies who Christ is. Basically you deny his righteous and perfect life as the perfect sacrifice for our sin.

 

[TibiasDad]

Not according to Scripture. Jesus is never called God in human flesh. Jesus is called a man who came in the flesh.

The Word was God; the Word became flesh; the Word in flesh was named Jesus, for he would save his people from their sins!
