Soapy appears to be cherry-picking Scripture once again, so desperate is he to make it say what he wants it to say, rather than what the Word actually says.
Here is the verse in context:
“The coming of the lawless one will be in accordance with how Satan works. He will use all sorts of...
Neither incongruous nor contradiction, Soapy.
It’s all centered on that hypostatic union I mentioned earlier. You obviously did not look it up, as I suggested.
This is the crux of the matter; this is where your problem arises. Here is a brief explanation:
The term ‘hypostatic union’ is used...
It matters to you if you wish to appear rational. Why/ Because it is irrational to imply that theists see this Being as “a king in space”.
“The heart of Christianity is a myth which is also a fact. The old myth of the Dying God, without ceasing to be a myth, comes down from the heaven of...
:cool: But you are not showing that Trinitarianism is wrong, Soapy. Let me tell you what you are doing. You are attempting to show that Trinitarianism is wrong.
However, this attempt to show that it is wrong leads you to alter the words of Scripture.
"You shall not add to the word that I...
A "king in space"? :facepalm: If you really think that this is how theists think of God, you should be having this ‘discussion’ with a 4-year-old.
You are pushing another of your numerous logical fallacies, joelr.
You are misrepresenting your opponent’s concept of God. In other words, you...
It needs correction (embellishment is the wrong word). Are you really saying that because it does not make sense to you, it does not make sense to anyone? If so, you have an unrealistically high opinion of yourself and your cognitive ability.
* (Quod erat demonstrandum? What are you talking...
You forgot to finish that sentence. You need to type “to me” after the word ‘sentence’.
Easy! God is in a class of His own, Soapy. To me, and to every Christian I know, the word God means the creator and ruler of the universe and source of all moral authority; the supreme being.

An interesting analogy. Thank you.
However...you mention "very religious pockets, where people work hard to be righteous"
Surely a woman/man is righteous coram deo? In other words, when she is in a right relationship with God, when she simply receives the imputed obedience of Christ and the...
Soapy, what I am saying makes no sense to you because you simply do not understand what God is saying to you in His Word and through His Word.
So, you have to walk away because of lack of strength and intelligence.

O Lord, you have searched me and known me!
You know when I sit down and when I rise up;
you discern my thoughts from afar.
You search out my path and my lying down
and are acquainted with all my ways.
Even before a word is on my tongue,
behold, O Lord, you know it altogether.
You...
