Here's a brief history lesson. There was no Roman Catholic Church ruling Christianity before Constantine, because Christianity was an illegal religion and an underground practice.
The doctrine of the Trinity did not depend on any council as it was used by Tertullian and others long before a...
You are in agreement with the Jehovah's Witnesses in blaming the nicene fathers for concocting the Trinity. Therefore, it makes your entire premise false. A faulty foundation leads to more falsehood. Where did I ever say that Jesus is the Father? I gave the scripture that Jesus is the same...
Hebrews 1:3
Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high; (KJV)
Clarke's Commentary:
The express image of his person -...
So you are an advocate of Mormonism and Jehovah's Witnesses? You claim I am merely repeating what I have been taught. Why the rush to judgment when you know nothing about me? I was raised Roman Catholic and stayed in that church for years. If I were merely repeating what I had been taught, I...
When we read what the KJB translators said about the deutocanon/apocrypha, we see that they never considered them to be God's Word (inspired), but included them for historical reading. They knew these books were never in the Hebrew Scriptures.
He was 2 natures (one was fully human, the other fully divine) in one person. 2 Cor. 5:19. "that God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself.
All through the Scriptures we find evidence that Jesus is deity (God by nature) like the Father. The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and...
I believe it's very true that if you have a firm foundation, reading other bible versions will not sway one from it. However, many Christians today have been brought up using one of these paraphrased bibles and do not get the actual full meaning of certain passages and it can make a difference...
My wife was lds for a number of years and so were some of our friends. We spent years studying mormonism and witnessing to others about the many false teachings and false prophecies of Joseph Smith. The lds church, which claims to be the One True Church, owes the world the truth concerning its...
I know all about it. The apocrypha was never considered scripture. It was only accepted reading based on historical, not inspirational value. Which was why it was placed between the old and new testament. They did not integrate it into the Old Testament text as do the corrupt Alexandrian...
It's easy to tell everybody we disagree with that they are wrong. You have offered nothing to substantiate your claim. I agree that words have changed and this can lead to a change in meaning sometimes.
What are these "books" that were dumped?
Jehovah's Witnesses and Mormonism were founded in the 1800's. The 1st century Christians never taught some of the things that these two religious groups teach.
The Trinity is not confusing to those who are spiritually born again.
One of the problems is that these modern bible versions have to change a certain number of words in order to qualify for a copyright. Otherwise, if they all say the very same thing it would be something akin to plagiarism.
With the KJB, there have been several editions but no revisions.
Since many Jewish people do not believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, and are still waiting for their King, of course they also reject the New Testament and the miracles of Christ. Even those Jews who were eye witnesses when Christ performed miracles still didn't believe.
They have the...
The Holy Bible teaches that the Lord Jesus, in his prehuman existence, was and is forever God, (God the Son) and therefore fully equal to the Father in relation to his Deity. He then became a man at some point in time from the virgin Mary through the Holy Spirit. Thus, Christs subjection to...
You have not addressed the lds teaching that Heavenly Father was once a man who had to work out his own salvation to become who he is now. Nor have you addressed the lds teaching that there are zillions of gods on other planets and that the lds believe they are gods in embryo. It only seems we...
