1 | Should we rethink the Trinity? | John 10:30 | Saint N Says | 135619 | ||
My sincere apologies. I see no point in ruining your forum. I simply could never recognize a Catholic as a Christian (no more than a Hindu), and if that isn't obivious to everyone else I must be in the wrong place. To challenge me on the fact that the Catholic church killed millions of dissidents is akin to denying the Holocaust. I shall withdrawl and seek a forum better suited to my interests and views. Sincerely, Saint N Says |

2 | Should we rethink the Trinity? | John 10:30 | Saint N Says | 135610 | ||
I wasn't quite thinking we were at the point of friendship, and I am rather impressed that when you speak in love that it is the truth, maybe you could start adding new books to the Bible with that special gift. I am sorry to see you quoting Augustine since he was one of the central founders of Roman Catholicism, an "orthodox" group responsible for the execution of millions and millions of heretics for the sake of their loving truth. I can only imagine what you really feel towards me since you call me Satan. My agenda that you ask about is not to deny the Father or the Holy Spirit but get at what I "think" scripture is saying in emphasizing the role of Jesus as being the primary interactor with man, and thus a more Christ-centered focus. |

John 8:58 Jesus said to them, "Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am." If Jesus claims to be the one who created and always interacted with Israel, then who is the Father as a seperate entity for Jesus? |

That simply sounds like a pat answer. I think it reflects a Western approach to logic, that did not exist in that ancient Eastern culture. Maybe Jesus meant what He actually said, and not what we are comfortable with it meaning. I think the fact that they went from wanting to follow him to killing him indicates that he said something immensely offensive. I would conclude that unless we find what He said offensive we probably haven't understood Him yet. | ||||||
