The Chosen

[timothyu]

No, It's a False Christ that's depicted in that TV show.

Please explain why (examples)

 

[Hammster]

Such as? One I see is hinting Mary Magdalene was a prostitute, unbiblical. Can you provide more?

Such as the current discussion about Christ being “the law of Moses”.

 

[timothyu]

Such as the current discussion about Christ being “the law of Moses”.

Who gave that law and who was it about?

 

[Hammster]

Who gave that law and who was it about?

You should do some study and find out.

 

[timothyu]

Asked you first

 

[Hammster]

Asked you first

It’s Christianity 101. If you don’t know, we may be too far ahead of you for this discussion to be helpful. Read the first five books and then if you have questions, get back to me.

 

[timothyu]

then if you have questions, get back to me.

I already asked

 

[Hammster]

I already asked

Then God spoke all these words, saying,
— Exodus 20:1

Etc.

 

[timothyu]

Then God spoke all these words, saying,
— Exodus 20:1

So the Law was Him and from Him, both being His will..

 

[Hammster]

So the Law was Him and from Him, both being His will..

It never says that the law was Him.

 

[timothyu]

It never says that the law was Him.

If God gave the law by His own hand who else would it be? Did He get it from a law of the month club or some other god?

 

[Hammster]

The law isn’t a who. That’s just weird thinking.

 

[timothyu]

The law isn’t a who.

Neither is God. But if God thought it it came from him, it is Him.

 

[Hammster]

Neither is God. But if God thought it it came from him, it is Him.

God is a who. It’s weird to say He isn’t.

 

[timothyu]

God is a who. It’s weird to say He isn’t.

The best description is to say God is. Otherwise He wouldn't say I am.

 

[Hammster]

The best description is to say God is. Otherwise He wouldn't say I am.

“Who” refers to persons. The Trinity had three Persons. And the Godhead refers to Himself using language we use for persons.

 

[timothyu]

The Trinity had three Persons

Three beings would be more accurate IMO

 

[Hammster]

Three beings would be more accurate IMO

No, three persons is not only more accurate, but more orthodox.

 

[timothyu]

No, three persons is not only more accurate, but more orthodox.

Tradition has nothing to do with reality. If the Father and HS are spirit then how can you make them persons, in essence making them over in our image.

I don’t make them persons. They have personhood.
