Re: "Begotten"

I have come to the understanding that, dealing with JW's and other unitarians, that the concept of the Trinity is NOT really the issue, its the wording. They can grasp the "unity" of Father, Son and HS, they just don't agree that this "unity" is a union of equals. I think that i...

The trinity is not a post biblical idea. The word, "trinity" is used to describe what is already in scripture.

Re: "Begotten"

John, we are talking about the trinity. Read and understand. It's not polytheism. You are misrepresenting what we believe.

If you don't believe Jesus Christ is God, then your belief is cultic:What is the definition of a cult?

Nothing seems out if the ordinary there. It seems like a typical Assemblies of God type church. That's the church affiliated with the Crossroads "friend" you were talking about?

Re: "Begotten"

For those of you following this thread, what 1stjohn0666 is adhering to, by denying the deity of Jesus Christ, is a cult.

What is the definition if a cult?

Re: The Rich

Murray, that's great that you are using discernment with this. I really don't think you need any advice with this. You can see for yourself that something is wrong. I think you should do what you probably already know you should do. Stay away from them. Murray, whatever job you do, do it as you are ...

Re: The Rich

Murray, why would you want to subject yourself to his rants again? Do you have a website for this "Crossroads"? I'd like to see what they say they believe. Murray, you know the old saying, "with friends like that, who needs enemies?" I think it's time for some new friends. I'm go...

Re: The Rich

Murray, who told you that garbage? And, why would you listen to that for 3 hours? I would have said my piece, and stopped listening, long before 3 hours.
Before I go any further, who told you this?

Re: "Begotten"

Jesus was a "mortal man" being mortal means one can die. Scripture is clear that only God is immortal. If then Jesus died, he must not be God. As for being worshiped: http://godandson.reslight.net/?p=279 John, we agree that Jesus had a human nature. In that human nature, he was mortal. Ot...

Re: The Sabbath, to keep or not to keep....

if some believers feel worshiping on and observing the sabbath help them to follow Christ i see nothing wrong with it likewise if some believers choose to worship any other day and it helps them to follow Christ i also see nothing wrong with that.

Re: The Sabbath, to keep or not to keep....

Shabbat means, "Jewish Sabbath". So I agree with you. The Jews can keep the Jewish Sabbath. Believers can also observe the Sabbath rest by believing on Christ, who is our Sabbath rest. Shabbat no more means, "Jewish Sabbath," than Christ means, "Greek Messiah." It's Bi...
