Trinitarianism verses Modalism debate

I have no need to discuss anything deeper with a person who refuses to believe what plural pronouns mean.
101G did not ask to discuss anything with you...... read before you reply ... ok. now listen, 101G want to KNOW has the trinity doctrine changed. for a statement has been made that now.... all three of your persons in your trinity now all your persons holds the title "LORD", (all cap). 101G just want to get a conformation if this is now your trinity doctrine addition? that's all so, either a yes or no is only required.

thanks in advance.

101G.
 
To all trinitarians, and @TomL
Now that a NEW ANGLE has been introduce, all three persons are the "LORD". the Father is LORD, the Son is LORD, and the Holy Spirit is LORD.

scripture, Deuteronomy 6:4 "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:" ok, ..... ONE LORD..... Hmmmmm now this, Isaiah 45:5 "I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:" well that just shot in the foot that all three PERSON(S) are the LORD. and this, Isaiah 45:6 "That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else." that three person "LORD" is just not working. one more. Isaiah 43:11 "I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour." so now we have three saviors. ..... what a mess.

@TomL, since you cannot answer Post #139 as to who this Revelation Letter is from, 101G will answer post #139 for you. for 101G motto is "Where there is KNOWLEDGE, stay not IGNORANT". so 101G have U not IGNORANT..... ok.

let the scriptures fall where they may. John is giving us a clear vetting process as to who the one person that sent this letter to the seven churches, via (him) John. Remember this is a revelation of …. Jesus the Christ.

ONLY "ONE" person holds all these identifying Appellation, or Epithet, which are mention in the above post. this changes the whole dynamic of the book as we once believed, and the way we should read and understand this book. If the Lord Jesus holds all these identifying Appellation, or Epithet then one will have to consider what they believe. but leaving that alone, Lets follow the Appellation, and or the Epithet/titles and see if this is the one same person.

#1. him, “which is, and which was, and which is to come". is this the Lord Jesus? yes,

Evidence #1. Revelation 1:8 "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty”. So the “which is, and which was, and which is to come” is A. the Almighty, B. the Alpha and the Omega, and C. who is the Lord Jesus. so, Person #1 is the Lord Jesus. but lets contuine.

Evidence #2. Revelation 4:8 "And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which is, and which was, and which is to come”. Again the which is, and which was, and which is to come is the Lord God Almighty. this is the Lord Jesus again Identified as the which is, and which was, and which is to come”.

Evidence #3. Revelation 11:17 "Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned".

So clearly we see that him, “which art, and wast, and art to come“, it the Lord God Almighty. which is the Lord JESUS?

#2. the “Seven Spirits”. is this the Lord Jesus also?

Evidence #1. Revelation 3:1 "And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead”. We know that this is the Lord Jesus who is addressing the church in Sardis, and he, the “Lord” Jesus said that he has the “Seven Spirits”.

Evidence #2. Revelation 5:6 "And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth”. BINGO, “which are the seven Spirits of God ”. so it is the Lord JESUS. for he stood/resurrected.

Evidence #3. the one who have the seven Spirits is the Same one who is the First and the Last, which we know now is the Lord Jesus.
Revelation 1:17 "And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
Revelation 1:18 "I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death". the only one who was dead and live evermore is the Lord JESUS.

So the one who have the seven Spirit is the First and the Last who is the Lord God Almighty...... JESUS.
Revelation 22:13 "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last”. who is the “First & Last?”, the Lord God Almighty. BINGO, that confirm who is the Lord God Almighty is, JESUS.

And lastly, “the true witness”, that’s a no brainier, a give me. The Lord Jesus. who is the which is, and which was, and which is to come and he is also the the seven Spirits of God.

The only person who is the central theme of this book is the Lord Jesus, who is the Spirit, and God is a Spirit (John 4:24a). so no Modalism here. what's not here is three separate and distinct persons.... called "LORD" ... Oh my :cry: YIKES! THIS IS NOT 101G, no, BUT THE BIBLE. if one just follow the scriptures, and ....... BELIEVE the scriptures, then one will never go wrong.

101G.
 
@TomL, since you cannot answer Post #139 as to who this Revelation Letter is from, 101G will answer post #139 for you. for 101G motto is "Where there is KNOWLEDGE, stay not IGNORANT". so 101G have U not IGNORANT..... ok.

I fear for your sanity. You ignored point after point

And you did not deal with the evidence presented

They are differentiated here

Father and Son are two persons

1. The saluations: Rom. 1:7; 1 Cor. 1:3; 2 Cor. 1:2; Gal. 1:3; Eph. 1:2; 6:23; Phil. 1:2; 1 Thess. 1:1; 2 Thess. 1:1, 2; 1 Tim. 1:1, 2; 2 Tim. 1:2; Tit. 1:4; James 1:1; 2 Peter 1:2; 2 John 3; Phm 1:3

2 . Two witnesses; John 5:31-32; 8:16-18; compare Num. 35:30; Deut. 17:6; 19:15.

3. The Father sent the Son: John 3:17; Gal. 4:4; 1 John 4:10; etc.; compare John 1:6; 17:18; 20:21.

4. The Father and the Son love each other: John 3:35; 14:31; 17:23-26

5. The Father speaks to the Son, and the Son speaks to the Father: John 11:41 -42; 12:28; 17:126; etc.


Notice in particular

John 8:17–18 (NIV) — 17 In your own Law it is written that the testimony of two witnesses is true. 18 I am one who testifies for myself; my other witness is the Father, who sent me.”

You appealed to Echad but it does not support you

Genesis 2:24 (KJV 1900) — 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

where two persons are referred to

Then also your appeal to allos

ONLY "ONE" person holds all these identifying Appellation, or Epithet, which are mention in the above post. this changes the whole dynamic of the book as we once believed, and the way we should read and understand this book. If the Lord Jesus holds all these identifying Appellation, or Epithet then one will have to consider what they believe. but leaving that alone, Lets follow the Appellation, and or the Epithet/titles and see if this is the one same person.

#1. him, “which is, and which was, and which is to come". is this the Lord Jesus? yes,
Yes

Evidence #1. Revelation 1:8 "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty”. So the “which is, and which was, and which is to come” is A. the Almighty, B. the Alpha and the Omega, and C. who is the Lord Jesus. so, Person #1 is the Lord Jesus. but lets contuine.

Not needed. I posted elsewhere identifying Jesus as the Almighty of

Revelation 1:7–8 (KJV 1900) — 7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. 8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.

based on

Revelation 22:12–16 (KJV 1900) — 12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. 13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. 14 Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. 15 For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. 16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.






Evidence #2. Revelation 4:8 "And the four beasts had each of them six wings about him; and they were full of eyes within: and they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which is, and which was, and which is to come”. Again the which is, and which was, and which is to come is the Lord God Almighty. this is the Lord Jesus again Identified as the which is, and which was, and which is to come”.

Again agree Christ is coming
Evidence #3. Revelation 11:17 "Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned".

So clearly we see that him, “which art, and wast, and art to come“, it the Lord God Almighty. which is the Lord JESUS?

No disagreement
#2. the “Seven Spirits”. is this the Lord Jesus also?

Evidence #1. Revelation 3:1 "And unto the angel of the church in Sardis write; These things saith he that hath the seven Spirits of God, and the seven stars; I know thy works, that thou hast a name that thou livest, and art dead”. We know that this is the Lord Jesus who is addressing the church in Sardis, and he, the “Lord” Jesus said that he has the “Seven Spirits”.
Has not is
Evidence #2. Revelation 5:6 "And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth”. BINGO, “which are the seven Spirits of God ”. so it is the Lord JESUS. for he stood/resurrected.

Evidence #3. the one who have the seven Spirits is the Same one who is the First and the Last, which we know now is the Lord Jesus.
Revelation 1:17 "And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
Revelation 1:18 "I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death". the only one who was dead and live evermore is the Lord JESUS.

So the one who have the seven Spirit is the First and the Last who is the Lord God Almighty...... JESUS.
Revelation 22:13 "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last”. who is the “First & Last?”, the Lord God Almighty. BINGO, that confirm who is the Lord God Almighty is, JESUS.

And lastly, “the true witness”, that’s a no brainier, a give me. The Lord Jesus. who is the which is, and which was, and which is to come and he is also the the seven Spirits of God.

The only person who is the central theme of this book is the Lord Jesus, who is the Spirit, and God is a Spirit (John 4:24a). so no Modalism here. what's not here is three separate and distinct persons.... called "LORD" ... Oh my :cry: YIKES! THIS IS NOT 101G, no, BUT THE BIBLE. if one just follow the scriptures, and ....... BELIEVE the scriptures, then one will never go wrong.

101G.
Nothing there stating Jesus is the father

and the lamb is seen in addition to God

that is two no matter how you slice it

Revelation 3:21 (KJV 1900) — 21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
 
To all trinitarians, and @TomL
Now that a NEW ANGLE has been introduce, all three persons are the "LORD". the Father is LORD, the Son is LORD, and the Holy Spirit is LORD.

scripture, Deuteronomy 6:4 "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:" ok, ..... ONE LORD..... Hmmmmm now this, Isaiah 45:5 "I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:" well that just shot in the foot that all three PERSON(S) are the LORD. and this, Isaiah 45:6 "That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else." that three person "LORD" is just not working. one more. Isaiah 43:11 "I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour." so now we have three saviors. ..... what a mess.

That is echad

Remember your diversified oneness

The same word is used here

Genesis 2:24 (KJV 1900) — 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

One flesh

consisting of man and woman - two persons

I told you all this previously
 
you want saluations? ok 101G will give you saluations. Revelation 1:1 "The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John:"
Earth to 101g that is two





Revelation 1:2 "Who bare record of the word of God, and of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw."

Two again

why go any further
 
101G's view? who told you that. did not 101G say, "Diversified Oneness" is what the Lord Jesus taught his disciples and apostles, so why say this is 101G view and understanding? again your opinion or your excuse.

101G
yes 101g's view

diversigfied oneness is not one person

How many times do I need to point out echad is not a reference to a numerical one

Genesis 2:24 (KJV 1900) — 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

one (echad) flesh consisting of man and woman - two persons
 
101G want to address this one alone
so Jesus is LORD.. correct, now who is the "Lord" in Psalms 110:1 "A Psalm of David. The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool." now before you answer, Matthew 22:41 "While the Pharisees were gathered together, Jesus asked them," Matthew 22:42 "Saying, What think ye of Christ? whose son is he? They say unto him, The Son of David." Matthew 22:43 "He saith unto them, How then doth David in spirit call him Lord, saying," Matthew 22:44 "The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, till I make thine enemies thy footstool?" Matthew 22:45 "If David then call him Lord, how is he his son?" Matthew 22:46 "And no man was able to answer him a word, neither durst any man from that day forth ask him any more questions."

WILL BE LOOKING FOR YOUR ANSWER.
101g
The father speaking of the son

Acts 2:33–36 (KJV 1900) — 33 Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having received of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed forth this, which ye now see and hear. 34 For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, 35 Until I make thy foes thy footstool. 36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.

again that is two
 
That is echad

The same word is used here

Genesis 2:24 (KJV 1900) — 24 Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh.

One flesh

consisting of man and woman - two persons

I told you all this previously
is that an echad in 243 Allos or G2087 heteros? ... LOL, LOL, LOL, Oh my.... :cool: When will they ever LEARN...

Wake u . None of them support you

echad is used of two persons being one flesh

allos never equates the one with the other
 
Earth to 101g that is two
Earth to hell, it's ONE PERSON, LISTEN, ... LEARN
Isaiah 41:4 "Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I the LORD, the first, and with the last; I am he."

attention.... attention..... is this two persons? no, but do not "WITH" indicate "ANOTHER?" yes, the NUMERICAL DIFFERENCE in G243 ALLOS, and not G2087 heteros. and here is the answer in the BIBLE.... Isaiah 48:12 "Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last."

"ALSO" means ... "in addition; too" the First is also the Last..... that's "Diversity Oneness".
