Bible Note: John Once again you ignore the gentle hints and press on speaking of unity but championing a divisive topic. Your actions and your speech do not match. The study you embark on is not a study of scripture but rather an effort to prove a man made doctrine correct by using Biblical verses as proof texts in your endeavor. As history has proven there are nearly equal number of Biblical verses that stand in opposition to the concept when presented as proof texts by the opposition. Thus the reason the situation has not been able to be settled in 500 years. Your right the completeness of the Trinity is not fully understood but to orthodox Christianity the topic has been settled and the Trinity defined. However if you notice that still doesn’t prevent trouble makers from trying to push their heresy on the forum.. Also observe that after they have been asked to cease and refusing, Lockman revoked their right to participate on this forum. Once again this topic is divisive and since discussion on it has been ongoing for 500 years without any resolution and you have been asked by myself and others to cease please consider doing so. EdB |
