    What is Modalism???

    OntheRock, Maybe I'm making more out of this Trinity idea than I need to (while making, in some sense, less out of it than Trinitarians would prefer), but what I am trying to do is show what seems to me to be the case: If God has three manifestations or avenues or offices, what are these...

    What is Modalism???

    Thanks OntheRock. Oneness people seem to see no reason why God would be three y's. But, a war trial is not complete unless all three realms of proof are taken care of. The victor must be victor not by reason alone, nor by power alone, nor by goodness-of-spirit alone. No war trial between a...

    What is Modalism???

    Thanks, OntheRock. I just thought of what else I mean by asking all this: why does God have to be three people and what is wrong with saying that he is one person?

    What is Modalism???

    Thanks Chuck. But, you have not answered my questions sufficiently---one of them not at all. I am very serious here. You have not demonstrated exactly what Modalism is, as opposed to Trinitarianism, nor have you even begun to show why Modalism is bad, wrong, evil. Notice, I'm not asking so...

    Trinity (3/1 or 3/3) look at the verses

    The unwise, when faced with a problem that seems to him to be unassailable, thinks that he must come to a conclusion about it in relatively short order with his present and limited knowledge. In some cases, this means that he must admit logical defeat and join the side of the skeptic of the...

    Trinity (3/1 or 3/3) look at the verses

    Hervey, you will notice that all of your pairs there are distinctions between one GREAT THING and ANOTHER. That last pair you give is of heaven and earth. This is obviously the pair of Creator/created. There is eternal truth (heavenly, spiritual) and then there is created truth (signature, or...

    Trinity (3/1 or 3/3) look at the verses

    Reading Between The Errors If we fail the implicit, how can we stand in judgement of the explicit? If we fail the implicit, how can we learn anything until it is slammed into our chest and we see the front side face to face? There is a sense of truth unproven, yet we...

    Trinity (3/1 or 3/3) look at the verses

    3/1. The Father is greater than who? Than God incarnate? In office, yes. But, the office is only for a trial. Without evil, no trial, and hence no office. Yet, God is triune: he is not a singularity (which is meaningless), he is fundamentally three "things". There is something to him and he...
