John 8:58 and Trinitarians.

[Der Alte]

I brought up the sayings of ducklow because they where relevant to what he rightly said and what I wanted to confirm.

The claim that God is one God, three persons is part of the saying wich is taken over by many persons. Often they do not understand it and can not clearly explain it, but then they say we must believe it because it is a dogma.

When has anyone ever came to you, accosted you in some way and tried to force their doctrine on you? Is it not true that you, and Ducklow, and others, go out of your way to come to a traditional, evangelical, Trinitarian discussion board to argue with Trinitarians about their beliefs? I tried to a join a kristadelfian board one time, but was banned before I could make one post. I'm sure there are many people in all religious groups who cannot fully articulate their beliefs. Very few of them go outside their religious groups to attack the beliefs of others.

Nevertheless, those trinitarians do not seem to realize that for every scripture they give to support their claim, they have use their thoughts beyond has been written so to imagine their dogma and then add what they have imagined to, and read their assumptions into, each and every scripture they present. Thus, while they present scriptures, what they really present to support the trinitarian dogma are assumptions that have to added to and read into those scriptures, which means that their support for the trinity as alleged in the scriptures presented actually ends up being a circular argument.

Everything I highlighted is a false accusation with NO, ZERO, NONE evidence. I provided a link to two, back to back, posts where I cite 59 vss. in support of my views, please feel free to actually read my posts, directly address them, and back up the above unsupported assertions.

Stangly now in the last reacton you wrote, der Alter, you suddenly say that God the Father is not the son, this incontradiction to previous posts. You also mention that He is not the Spirit.
How do you interpret called/referred to? And then you now say ... as ... which is not the same as "is".

about the Son of God we then come closer to what I also think would be wright: Jesus is as God, or has character elements like God, but he is not God the Father.
But about the Spirit we keep having problems.

Link to my previous post citing 59 scriptures which call/refer to Jesus as God/YHWH, please address any arguments or discussion directly in reply to these posts.

Scripture which identify the Holy Spirit as God

Act 5:3 But Peter said, Ananias, why hath Satan filled thine heart to lie to the Holy Ghost, and to keep back part of the price of the land?
4 Whiles it remained, was it not thine own? and after it was sold, was it not in thine own power? why hast thou conceived this thing in thine heart? thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.​

This passage, Act 5:3-4, identifies the Holy Spirit as God by equating lying to the H.S. with lying to God.

Act 28:25 And when they agreed not among themselves, they departed, after that Paul had spoken one word, Well spake the Holy Ghost by Esaias the prophet unto our fathers,
26 Saying, Go unto this people, and say, Hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and not perceive:
27 For the heart of this people is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes have they closed; lest they should see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.​

This passage Act 28:25-27, identifies the Holy Spirit as YHWH by saying the H.S. spoke words which were spoken by YHWH, in Isa 6:8-10, below.

Isa 6:8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, [יהוה/YHWH] saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here am I; send me.
9 And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
10 Make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and convert, and be healed

Heb 10:15 Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,
16 This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;
17 And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. [O.T. see יהוה/YHWH, Jer 31:33-34]​

This passage, Heb 10:15-17, identifies the Holy Spirit as YHWH by saying words spoken by YHWH, in Jer 31:33-34, below, were spoken by the H.S.

Jer 31:33 But this shall be the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel; After those days, saith the LORD, [יהוה/YHWH] I will put my law in their inward parts, and write it in their hearts; and will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more

Heb 3:7 Wherefore (as the Holy Ghost saith, To day if ye will hear his voice,
8 Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness:
9 When your fathers tempted me, proved me, and saw my works forty years.
10 Wherefore I was grieved with that generation, and said, They do alway err in their heart; and they have not known my ways. [O.T. יהוה/YHWH, Ps 95:10]
11[/b] So I sware in my wrath, They shall not enter into my rest.) [O.T. יהוה/YHWH, Deu 1:34-35]​

This passage identifies the Holy Spirit as YHWH by saying words spoken by YHWH in Psa 95:10-11, and Deu 1:34-35, below.

Psa 95:10 Forty years long was I grieved with this generation, and said, It is a people that do err in their heart, and they have not known my ways:
11 Unto whom I sware in my wrath that they should not enter into my rest.

Deu 1:34 And the LORD [יהוה/YHWH] heard the voice of your words, and was wroth, and sware, saying,
35 Surely there shall not one of these men of this evil generation see that good land, which I sware to give unto your fathers,​

For there is one Person of the Father, another of the Son, and another of the Holy Spirit. But the godhead of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, is all one, [there ye go, father, son, holy spirit (three) is one..] the glory equal, the majesty co-eternal.

Such as the Father is, such is the Son, and such is the Holy Spirit. The Father uncreated, the Son uncreated, and the Holy Spirit uncreated. The Father incomprehensible, the Son incomprehensible, and the Holy Spirit incomprehensible.

The Father eternal, theSon eternal, and the Holy Spirit eternal. And yet they are not three eternals, but one Eternal.[3 is 1]
As also there are not three incomprehensibles, nor three uncreated, but one Uncreated, and one Incomprehensible [3 is 1].So likewise the Father is Almighty, the Son Almighty, and the Holy Spirit Almighty. And yet they are not three almighties, but one Almighty.[3 is 1]

So the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God. And yet they are not three gods, but one God.[3 is 1]

So likewise the Father is Lord, the Son Lord, and the Holy Spirit Lord. And yet not three lords, but one Lord.[3 is 1]

For as we are compelled by the Christian verity to acknowledge each Person by Himself to be both God and Lord, so we are also forbidden by the catholic religion to say that there are three gods or three lords.[(nice,, just forbid yourself from saying the obvious and that solves the probllem, name 3 different gods and forbid yourself from saying they are 3 gods and the problem of logic is solved., and you guys think this is deep stuff right? I can see now why you guys (y'all) forbid anyone from saying you have 3 gods simply cause you name 3 diffferent gods. cause athenasia said so.


so like if my church had a creed that said "we are forbidden by ________ religion to say that there are any trinitarians anywhere" then that means you guys don't exist right? cause we forbid ourselves from saying it, just like you guys forbid yourself from sayin there are 3 gods so there aren't 3 gods. humm all you gotta do is forbid it right? so like if i forbid myself from dieing i won't die right? interesting concept you got here.]

The Father is made of none, neither created, nor begotten. The Son is of the Father alone, not made, nor created, but begotten. The Holy Spirit is of the Father, neither made, nor created, nor begotten, but proceeding.

So there is one Father, not three fathers; one Son, not three sons; one Holy Spirit, not three holy spirits.

And in the Trinity none is before or after another; none is greater or less than another, but all three Persons are co-eternal together and co-equal. So that in all things, as is aforesaid, the Unity in Trinity and the Trinity in Unity is to be worshipped.[worship unity? Strange.]

it’s color coded, red n blue. tRed is athenasia saying words that ate the equivalent of 3 is one, 3 is one in blue is my quote. I bet them monks was a chantin this athenasia thing all the time. no foolin.

looks like chanting to me.

here ya go try this chant.

there is one god, not three

there is one eternal, lnot three
there is one comprehensible, not three
there is one amighty, not three
there is one god, not three
there is one LORD, not three
there is one uncreated, not three,
ther is one father, not three
there is one son , not three
there is one holy spirit, not three
father is god
son is god
holy spirit is god
there is one god

meowng meowng meowng meowng

so tell me what the duifference is between the chant i created, and the one athenasia created? no real difference that I can see.

What you "bet", think, suppose, assume, etc. means abso-diddly nothing. The Athanasian creed does NOT say "3 is 1"<period> End of story.

Not interested in your flights of fancy. If you ever want to discuss what is actually written in the creed let me know. For example.

Athanasian Creed
So likewise the Father is Lord, the Son Lord, and the Holy Spirit Lord. And yet not three lords, but one Lord.

1 Cor 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Jud 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.​

another deralter ’ is not’ rebuttal.

so like when you Trinitarians say “the bible says Jesus is god” it doesn’t mean diddly right? I mean cause the bible doesn’t say “Jesus is god” but you guys say it does. Seems we’ve stumbled on yet another der alter double standard here.

Not interested in your flights of fancy.

another der alter ‘is not’ rebuttal. But one can chant anything really. So if one says anything can’t be chanted they are worng, cause one can. But there was sufficient repretition in the creed of 3 is one to warrant it a likely candidate for mind numbing repetitiveness. But repetetiveness isn’t necessary for a chant. Monks even chant scriptrue and especially the psalms at times.

So am I gonna get a “I don’t care what you think” rebuttal. Which of course is the equivalent of saying “is not.”.

If you ever want to discuss what is actually written in the creed let me know. For example.

well actually you can’t chant anything.. Chanting is just a way of singing.

Athanasian Creed
So likewise the Father is Lord, the Son Lord, and the Holy Spirit Lord. And yet not three lords, but one Lord.

1 Cor 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Jud 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

well yea, 3 is not one cause athenasia, (well actually they say it probably wasn’t him but oh well) said you are forbidden to say 3 gods. Since forbidding someone is the reason athenasia gave for why you don’t have 3 gods when you name 3 gods, then you have an invalid reason and it’s back to the drawing board. So, there isn’t any good reason for his conclusion, ‘not three lords, but one lord’. In your quote above.


We’ve already been over 1 cor. 8.6 . I say it means one lord Jesus Christ, . Because the bible warns us to beware of false christs. You say it means one lord, Jesus Christ. I say it means One God, the Father, as do you. But you scoff at my interpretation of “one god, the father (with a comma) and one Lord Jesus Christ (without the comma). I don’t find scoffing a good reason I’m wrong, and there is no grammatical reason why it can’t be as I say. So as far as I can tell that’s about as far as we can take it.

I think the few non-trinitarian writers on this forum always showed their respect.
If you look very well there are many JW an Christadlephian forums where non-trinitarains are welcome and may debate freely.

Neither JW nor Christadelphians would ever say that you would go to hell when you do not believe in the non-trinitarian thinking, because they do not believe in a hell.
Christadelphians shall also not say that you would be lost for ever. Christadelphians believe it is up to God to decide who shall be saved. And it shall be his Son, who is given the authorisation, who shall decide who is going to enter the Kingdom of God. It is not to humans to decide such a thing.

 

[marcusampe]

Dear der Alter,
What would be the use of a forum if there can not be a discussion about the ideas.
There are several Christadelphian forums where they just welcome other ideas because this gives the opportunity to bring the other way of thinking and to bring readers in the possibility to examine the said.
Sometimes we even consider it as a gift to be able to go deeper in a subject.

 

[marcusampe]

The Athanasian creed does NOT say "3 is 1"

But then you have to consider three persons and three gods, because they are not the same One.

1 Cor 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Is that not clear? there can only be One God, who is the same as the Father and who is Lord of Lords, God Alighty, Jehovah/Yahweh.
Next to Him = an other person ~~~ a higher placed person: the one Lord we do have to recognise as the Messiah: Jesus/Yeshua.

 

[marcusampe]

Jud 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.

(MHM) For certain persons have sneaked in among you–persons condemned by what had been previously written long ago. They are irreverent, perverting the unmerited favor of our God into loose conduct. They deny our only Owner and Master Jesus Christ.

Galatians 2:4 (Williams) they did not try it even for the sake of the false brothers who had been smuggled in, who stole in to spy out the freedom we enjoy in Christ Jesus, so as to make us slaves again.


In the version you use it is also clearly written that we have the Lord of Lords the only Lord God, and the other person who we may call our Lord Jesus Christ or Yeshua the Messiah, the Saviour.

= 2 persons <== God and the the Master Teacher Messiah.

you are still left with your false allegation that the bible says the son is called/refered to as god. Now you have found others who have the same false allegation. It appears your reasoning here is that trinitarian opinons are scripture, in that you refuse to recant your totally false claim that scripture SAYS the son is called/refered to as God. it is a very bad thing to put words in the mouth of God.

Revelation 22:18 I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, if any man shall add unto them, God shall add unto him the plagues which are written in this book:


Here's a question for you. What does it say about a doctrine when it's adherents have to make up false claims about what the bible says to support it?

Athanasian Creed
So likewise the Father is Lord, the Son Lord, and the Holy Spirit Lord. And yet not three lords, but one Lord.

1 Cor 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Jud 1:4 For there are certain men crept in unawares, who were before of old ordained to this condemnation, ungodly men, turning the grace of our God into lasciviousness, and denying the only Lord God, and our Lord Jesus Christ.​

Galatians 2:4 (Williams) they did not try it even for the sake of the false brothers who had been smuggled in, who stole in to spy out the freedom we enjoy in Christ Jesus, so as to make us slaves again.

In the version you use it is also clearly written that we have the Lord of Lords the only Lord God, and the other person who we may call our Lord Jesus Christ or Yeshua the Messiah, the Saviour.

= 2 persons <== God and the the Master Teacher Messiah.

You split my post and addressed the 2 vss. in isolation. That is exactly what I believe, Two persons, one lord.

And the out-of-context vs. you are spouting at me trying to insult me refers to Judaizers.

No what we got here is a buncha empty argumentation. Every scripture I posted either states directly that Jesus is God or implies it. As I said every verse is supported by the entire early church and Christian scholars. Your endless repetition of "I'm right and you're wrong, Am too! Nuh Huh!" is meaningless.

what a scripture implies or doesn't imply is a matter of opinion. and you don't care about opiinions rememeber?


show us the scripture that says directly "Jesus is god." it aint there. it's your opinon, and to be fair, you shouldn't care what you think .

here's all you gotta do . quote the scirpture, and underline the words "jesus is god." course you know it aint there so you gotta say "NUH HUH>" good one professor.
