That is all there is in Pauls blessing. Let me put it together for you. What He said was: May God be with you.

I think I posted evidence that Paul did teach the Trinity. Saying I did not post evidence is not looking at evidence, it's ignoring it. Paul used all three persons of One God in His closings. Was Paul teaching three gods?, Of course not. Paul did not question the Divinity of Christ.
Reread the thread, I was answering a question about the Holy Spirit. And that is what I did I answered that specific question. No one asked me to write a thesis on Christain Theology or discuss the history of the Christian church.Originally posted by ansarthemystic
Re-read what you wrote...these are CHARACTERISTICS of a PERSON!!!. How is it that these are not characteristics of the G-d who IS a spirit.
peace and blessings

Mr ElderMike, Paul along with all the other inspired writers including Christ Himself never taught the trinity!

The reason I wasn't concerned about who taught what or what the Bible teaches on the issue is: The only reason to question the Trinity is if you deny the Divinity of Jesus. This is not about Trinity teachings, it's about Jesus. Jesus said He was God, Trinity issue resolved, "poof" gone, done, finished. If you beleive Jesus is something other than God then you have to reject the Trinity. This is not a teaching issue at all. Never has been.
Jesus never said He was God.

Yes it helps in the debate to get to the real issue. The issue of "who is Jesus": the only issue between Christians and Non/Christians. All non belief comes down to this question: who is Jesus? If Jesus is God and you deny that Jesus is God, you deny God.
We can post scripture until the Lord comes back and unless you want to know Jesus, and who He really is nothing will change. All I can do from here is pray for you and I will do that.[/B]
