1 | Oneness and the word "person" | 2 Cor 13:14 | jcsav | 112662 | ||
That is nowhere close to Webster. You stated what the qualities and attributes of a Person is. You did not state what a Person is. A person has a personality. God has a Personality (one) and he is a Spirit. More than one would make a Split personality even without a body. | ||||||
2 | Oneness and the word "person" | 2 Cor 13:14 | Makarios | 112836 | ||
Jcsav, It amazes me when those who subscribe to the "Oneness" heresy seek to justify their position after reading such passages of scripture as the one below: (re-post of kalos [02/21/04]) "The Trinity in John 14:11-26 (KJV) Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake. [12] Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. [13] And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. [14] If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it. [15] If ye love me, keep my commandments. [16] And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; [17] Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. [18] I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. [19] Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also. [20] At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you. [21] He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him. [22] Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, how is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? [23] Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. [24] He that loveth me not keepeth not my sayings: and the word which ye hear is not mine, but the Father's which sent me. [25] These things have I spoken unto you, being yet present with you. [26] But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. 2cor1314" |

Then why have you not keep his Words? When Peter told you to repent and be baptized in Jesus name. Why didn't you do so? The Gospel that I preach it will be your Judge in the last day. | ||||||
4 | Oneness and the word "person" | 2 Cor 13:14 | Morant61 | 112853 | ||
Greetings Jcsav! Rom. 8:1 says, "Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus," Makarios will have no need to fear judgement, since he is in Christ Jesus! :-) I have been following this debate in my spare time, but I have not posted to it as of yet. So, please allow me to ask you one simple question. In John 14:16, Jesus says, "And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever—" Now, the word 'another' is the English translation of the Greek word 'allos'. The Enhanced Strongs says that this word indicates 'numerical distinction' or 'one besides'. Based upon the Oneness view, how can the Holy Spirit be 'another' Counselor? Yet, God's Word specifically says that this 'other' Counselor would be 'numerically distinct' from the Father. Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |

Tim, I take it that you meant Comforter in place of Counselor. Matt 10:20 states:" For it is not ye that speak, but the spirit of your Father which speaketh in you." I don't think I will be using the Enchance Strongs. I don't know why they Enchanced it. I will check into it when I have the time. | ||||||

Hello jcsav, You haven't addressed Tim's comment: "Based upon the Oneness view, how can the Holy Spirit be 'another' Counselor? Yet, God's Word specifically says that this 'other' Counselor would be 'numerically distinct' from the Father." Whether the word is translated "Comforter," "Counselor," or "Helper" (all three are legitimate translations), we're still taklking about another of the same kind (i.e. the same, yet distinct).

Steve, I have now answered. I do not have the time to answer every question, what you see as a question that is a good one and I did not answer. Remember that I may not see it as such. Oneness seems to attact a great deal of interest and the mail is some times more than can be handled. I have other responsibilites that need my time. | ||||||

Hello jcsav, Oneness attracts so much interest because it is heresy having been proved so hundreds of years ago. Steve |
