What's to understand?

Here's what he said:If Caspar the Friendly Ghost is THAT famous, then awitch should know he is not the third person of the Godhead.

Have you not got posts muddled?

It is the gift one can receive only by being truly righteous. In the moment you hold no judgement over anyone or anything but instead have replaced it with forgiveness to a level of absolute, any tiny little irritation you hold toward someone else, even if it was something that happened 20 years ago, will lock you away from it entirely and you will stay locked away from heaven, from God until you forgive. It is not God's job to forgive because God is beyond forgiveness, he is blind to anything that would require forgiveness since he did not create it, it does not exist. Forgiveness is default, it is simply part of heaven and you cannot enter until you are aligned with it to some degree. It is a very logical system it all makes sense.

You should not pretend to know anything about God, not a single shred until it is doubtless. You simply need to have faith that.. well its all true, what the bible says and living or dead we are not separate from it, ever. In other words, you can't pretend to know what the bible says until you know for certain and only divinity can bring certainty.

Its very frustrating because what I'm saying is true, but very few listen. People are in love with themselves, but it is empty. It is like giving people the choice between a penny and a trillion dollars and they are all over the penny like 'No I don't want that, only this.'

" 'Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says.' (James 1:22)"

There is lots of scriptures that says God does the judging.

“I am the Lord; that is my name! I will not yield my glory to another or my praise to idols.

Yahshua directed us to worship Yahwah only, and stated that he does not accept any glory from mankind.

John 5:41
“I do not accept glorification from human beings,

Matthew 4:10
Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’ ”

Luke 4:8
Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.’ ”

The scripture he is quoting, "the Lord" is Yahwah. Yahshua did rebuke the woman, saying he did not have the authority to decide who sits by him.

The concept of "Godhead" is unfamiliar to me. I don't know what that means.

We non-Christians don't have the Holy Spirit guiding us, so I don't know what the point of citing scripture is when he knows we won't be able to understand it.

Playing stupid again huh! Many of the Pagan deities were trinities.

Without getting too technical, God has two types of attributes: natural and moral.

Of His natural attributes, which include omniscience, omnipresence, and omnipotence, one of them is His ability to be three persons in one essence.

The best terms we can use to describe Him are: trinity, triunity, and the word the Bible uses: Godhead.

I'm familiar with trinities.
It's the scripture and concepts like "godhead" that I don't know.
"Trinity" is somewhat misleading.

A more proper term is "triunity."

Not "three in one," but more like "three yet one."

I think the closest concept I have is The Morrigan. Not quite the same, but I think I got it. Thanks.

The Morrigan is probably a fair and accurate comparison but I don't think people get hung up on the technicalities of The Morrigan, whereas Christianity takes it very seriously. Denial of the trinity, especially as understand by the early councils, is one of the actual formal heresies and usually considered a serious violation.

As it should be.

We fundamental Baptists identify six fundamentals of the faith, of which if any one of the six isn't true, then there can be no salvation:

1. Verbal plenary inspiration of the Scriptures
2. The virgin birth of Christ
3. The deity of Christ
4. Jesus' vicarious (substitutionary) sacrifice on the Cross
5. Jesus' resurrection
6. The Second Coming and Millennial Reign

It always amazes me at how complicated you all make it.

That is done by removing the words.


For sins against G-d, the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) brings forgiveness.

For sins against one,s neighbour,
the Day of Atonement brings no forgiveness until one has become reconciled with one,s neighbour. (Mishnah)

The one domain that God handed over to us,
providing us with total autonomy,
is the sphere of forgiveness---for those acts commited against us personally.
