  A chapter on The Trinity

  by Doug Mason in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  as i work my way through the history of judaeo-christian salvation, i have drafted a chapter on the trinity and early christology.

  as before, i am seeking corrections, advice, and suggestions.. the chapter is available at: http://www.jwstudies.com/formative_christianity_s_christological_combats.pdf.

  while preparing this chapter, i realised that i am not looking at the "evolution" of soteriology.

  Also, He is a descendant of Adam, yet without defect.

  There must be something inherently - intrinsically? - different in the male sperm in contrast to the female ovum.

  Yet, ALL have sinned ...

  Good thoughts they are, my brother.

  I can grasp the pros and cons of the Trinity.

  What I can't understand is how a sinless Child could be born from a sinful mother.

  For instance, in order for Jesus of Nazareth to be a descendant of David, He would have to inherit David's DNA.

  The DNA from Mary, in that one case, must have been purged clean of any trace of Adamic sin.

  Since God can't dwell in any unclean place, that is probably what happened.

  I look forward longingly to the time when we will learn the answer.

  Hey, Doug Mason.

  Formative Christianity's page 17, Subheading In the eastern empire, Constantine ... In two major battle in 324 ...

  battles

  Page 24, Subheading In 381, the emperor imposed the Nicene faith ... It was sweeping document ... a

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Now, to the cornbread of the matter, as it were.

  Isn't it ironic that a ruler of the very empire that had Jesus of Nazareth executed was forced to convene a council to settle a dispute among His followers as to His nature?

  And, the dispute was never really resolved, but continues to this very day?

  We humans are a peculiar lot, are we not?

  LOL?

  Yeah, what a world.

  My g'daughter and g'son-in-law are unusually mature.

  He's an airman; she's working at the Post X and taking online courses toward a Psych degree.

  He's 20, she's 19.

  So proud of them!

  do you remember the mars climate orbiter?

  it was a probe launched by nasa designed to gather data on mars.

  the problem is that the probe never reached mars.
