1 | Interpret John 8:24 | John 8:24 | Morant61 | 234633 | ||
Greetings Andy or Servetus! While I wait for you to clear upon your real identity, let me try one more time to make my position clear for you. I believe in the Trinity, and I believe that Jesus is Jehovah. The question is, 'How much of this does a person 'believe and/or understand' at the time they first respond to the offer of salvation'? You make it sound like someone must be able to write a dissertation on the doctrine of the Trinity in order to accept the offer of salvation. That is what I am disagreeing with your pastor on. Someone must have some understanding of Who Christ is, but they are not going be able to describe the nature of Christ in terms of the Hypostatic Union. As they grow in their faith, their understanding of Who Jesus is will grow and mature as well. So, I am denying that there is some sort of Trinity check list that must be meet in order to accept Christ. To me, this is a very clear statement. Our understanding and/or belief starts low and grows high. Tim |

I agree that anyone who teaches that is off track. One may not disagree with the doctrine of the Trinity because Jesus must have the the full power and purity of God to make an acceptable sacrifice, and it is the absolute righteousness of the LORD that must be satisfied for true justice. In Christ, Tim Mc |
