Aren't you always in contention with the Trinitarian doctrine?So you will always be in contention and like it…?
Agreeing to disagree is not solving the problem of truth… truth that I thought you were attempting to disseminate in this forum.
Oh well… ‘He who has ears …’!
Do you believe that Trinitarians think that you are not saying that Jesus pre-existed in Heaven? Do you think that you are saying what they are thinking… that Jesus ‘CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN’? This just adds to the idea you have that Jesus was ‘Sent’ as a baby… No! He was ‘sent’ after God anointed him. Jesus did not start his mission until after he was anointed and SENT to do God’s work: ‘This is my Son in whom I am well pleased!!’:
Jesus was TESTED as to his ability to overcome sin by way of the trials in the wilderness. Doubles there were more than three trials but he passed them all. So, it was AFTER he was tested and PASSED… that he was SENT. Does anyone SEND an untested person to do the most important work in history of mankind?
- ‘Behold my servant - MY CHOSEN ONE - in whom I am well pleased. I will put my Spirit on him and he will do my bidding…’ (Isaiah 42:1 paraphrased)
You don’t think that to avoid the ambiguity you should ‘change your language’ (the way you say things?) You say ‘no’! Is it pride? It’s simple… just understand that progression requires change or else you will forever be in contention.
Like I said - I can't be responsible for HOW someone reads and understands what I post. I have consistently denied that Jesus literally preexisted.
Yes, Jesus was sent to accomplish the works that God purposed him to do.
I really don't think that anyone has the right to TELL another person how they should speak or the words they should use when they speak . . .
I fully understand what I am saying, and I believe that others also know and understand what I am saying or else there would not be post after post that continue to argue preexistence with me if they understood or thought preexistence to be my stance because then we would be in agreement!!!
