Well,
@101G was only discussing the 2 persons.
So, i showed Him the 2, as "us and our"
If you add the Holy Spirit then you have the Tripart God.
God in 3..
F-S-HS
And we, are made in that image.. as
Body
Soul
Spirit.
Man is 3, just as God is 3.
We live in a Body... We have a soul... We ARE a spirit.
NONESENSE, 101G was never discussing any 2 persons, and especially not three.
@civic, let's clear up this Body, Soul, and Spirit.
1 John 5:7 "For there are
three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and
these three are one." 1 John 5:8 "A
nd there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood:
and these three agree in one."
these verses destroy any three-person(s) justification, just on their merit by themselves. notice, both scriptures states, "
these ". not "
THEY", which the term "
They" indicate PERSONS, but the verses clear as day states, "
these", which are
things and NOT PERSONS that are named. the term
these is opposed to
those, as this is to that, and when two persons or things or collections of things are named,
these refers to
the things or persons which are nearest in place or order, or which are last mentioned. so
these it's reference a "THINGS" or "PERSONS". so, let's see which, is which a thing or a Person. is "Father" a person, or a "TITLE" of, of, of, a PERSON? or "Word" is it a TITLE of, of, of, a Person? or Holy Ghost, is it a PERSON, or the TITLE of, of, of, a Person. see it now. if it was PERSON(S), then the verse would have said plainly, "
THEY" three are one. or in the next verse, "
THEY" three agree in one. for is blood a PERSON?, is water a PERSON? is spirit by it self a person? no none of .... "
THESE" are PERSON, Titles are NOT PERSONS. they are IDENTIFERS of, of, of, the PERSON, and not the person it-self.
if the verses would have stated "
THEY", are ONE, which indicates person(s) , then we all could pack up our bags and go home, because there would be no room for any further discussion. the case would be closed. but because the verses state "these" instead of "They" the case is not closed. for there is no reason to close it.
