Be careful about which Unitarians you are talking about. There are Biblical Unitarians who believe just as you do about God and His Word, except for Jesus Christ being part of a trinity. Because it isn't allowed in this forum, I will not go into the details of that belief, but if one were to go to the Scriptures with meekness instead of preconcieved ideas made by man (Like the Nicene Creed) you might be surprised by what you find. The Nicene Creed came about because of an argument between a bishop and his assistant in the time of Constantine, although the trinitarian belief has its roots in Gnosticism, starting with Justin Martyr in response to the persecution of Emperor Trajan, trying to explain the Christian religion in term the Greeks could understand using phrases from the Greek philosophers Plato, Aristotle, and Socrates. Irenaeus, a bishop of Lyons furthered the view, along with Tertullian of Carthage. There are a few others along the way before the Council of Nicea met, made and signed the Nicene Creed. I can tell you this, if you think to convince a Biblical Unitarian to believe in the Trinity, it won't work. Most Unitarians are converted Trinitarians and most already know every verse you can show them in support of the Trinity, because they used them (the verses) trying to defend the Trinity themselves. Just FYI. |
