1 | Should we rethink the Trinity? | John 10:30 | Saint N Says | 135513 | ||
There were great wars over the trinity doctrine in the early church, is there good reason to reconsider this? John 10:22-39 “I and the Father are One.” John 10:30 is equal to saying: We are one and the same. The Jews took up stones again to stone Him. John 10:31 The Jews gathered around Jesus at the time Dedication. They had very high Messianic expectations, wanted Jesus to claim to be that, but in seconds went from desire to follow to desire to kill. “There is no difference between us.” is equal to saying: “If you have seen Me you have seen the Father.” Jesus was deeply hated by the Jews because He directly claimed that He and God were one and the same. The Jews despised the Romans and would want not one of their own turned over for crucifixion. Something had to offend them more deeply than any other thing could for them to demand that outcome, a result the Romans were loathe to take. John 14:7-21 |

Saint N Says - Should we rethink the Trinity? It has been done. Many times over. The fruit of clear, biblically-based thinking about the Trinity is called orthodoxy. The fruit of fuzzy, man-based thinking about the Trinity is called cults. What profit can there be in exhuming ancient heresies and giving them asylum? Teaching that was proved false in the first century and has been proved false in each succeeding century is no less false in our time. Far better to let dead dogs lie and concern ourselves with spreading the truth of the gospel of Christ. --Hank | ||||||
