Subject: Trinity and Confusion |
Bible Note: Makarios, You wrote...Therefore, a person cannot argue against the truth of the doctrine of the Trinity by saying that it is "confusing". I didn't say I was confused by it. But I know many who are. I grew up Catholic, I know all about the Trinity. You wrote... "Does the fact that God is not a God of confusion (1 Cor. 14:33) prove that the doctrine of the Trinity cannot be true, since this doctrine is hard to understand?... You told me this is an absurd suggestion. It isn't my suggestion! I think you misunderstood me. Just because I think the Trinity teaches confusion doesn't mean that I am against God's doctrine that explains confusion and understanding. If I was I would have a very difficult time reading the Bible. I'm sorry you wasted your time explaining the whole confusion thing. Look, I don't believe in the trinity. My reasons for not believing it are not soley because it teaches confusion. God Bless You, Savannah |
