TRINITY Challenge for JW's, Unitarians and Anyone Else

by UnDisfellowshipped in

trinity challenge using only the new world translation of the holy scriptures -- let us debate and reason on the scriptures about whether god almighty is a trinity, or is only one person.. on another thread, bane said that we know for a fact immediately that nearly all religions other than jehovah's witnesses are false because almost all of them believe in the trinity.

and bane claims he can "out-scripturize" anyone with the help of jehovah.

Djeggnog,

Some of these past views held and taught by people who claimed this was spiritual food at the proper time affected peoples lives in a very negative way, maybe not your own, but as a christian with compassion i'm sure you can understand that some do not hold these men or ideas with the same high regard you do. Rubbish is rubbish, if you like giving it some evolutionary qualities to make it more palatable it still doesnt change what it was.

The word "zany" I believe you used in some earlier posts gives the impression of being funny, there was nothing funny to the people who didn't have a family or had no pension because they believed these men had insight as some faithfull and discreet slave giveing out the food at the proper time.

With the "godlike", surely there is a difference between "godlike" and "a god."

A Terry inspired post - Whose interpretation do you follow?

by donny in

terry had a great post the other day entitled " if the bible is so darned great---why don't people just read it?.

" yesterday someone knocked on my door and by the time i got there they had left and i found this postcard taped to the door.. the front has a picture of an open bible and the words "now is the time to know" below that is this statement: (bolding theirs).

"the bible is as relevant as ever to your life and family.

AGuest.

"What often amazes me is (1) even those who believe God/Christ don't speak or if they do you can't hear them... don't know what THE BIBLE says about such things, indeed won't even LOOK... but leave it to others to tell them and then blame God when others LIE to them about what it says, and (2) will risk EVERYTHING... will steal, commit adultery, lie, and worse... but will NOT eat the flesh of Christ or drink his blood! Because they have put SUCH a fear of doing so IN you... that you are "free" as to all things, apparently, but that."

I found this statement was very interesting to me.

If the particles that create angels are the same as God. Then he is a creation

Djeggnog,

Thank you.

But if the angels can pass DNA to, angelic material to make a hybrid, can God be the same substance as them and not be a creation?

just thinking about the churchhill coverup story.

seems theres alot of people around claiming to have seen ufo's etc.

whereas the amount of people claiming to have seen/heard god ....?.

The Finger

Peacedog,

What you say about God is how i have come to think of him. (With the angels if the nephilim are the offspring of angels and women. They must be closely related in order to pass on their angelic (dna)to make a hybrid. Therefore part of the universe. Not what God is otherwise he too would be part of creation.)

djeggnog,

"In the beginning, when his prehuman existence began at his begettal by God, Jesus was an angelic god, not unlike the others angels or "godlike ones" (Psalm 8:5 [hebrew, elohim]) that came into existence after his creation. At Hebrews 2:7, to remove all doubt as to what these godlike ones were to whom the psalmist was referring, the apostle Paul quotes Psalm 8:5 and refers to them as "angels." Yes, the apostle John at John 1:1 was correct in referring to the Logos as "a god," for he had been, at least, that "in the beginning.""

I am right in understanding what you are saying if I were to think that in John 1:1, John was saying that "... and the word was an angel." (godlike one)

Is the WTBTS mistaken or deceptive?

by exwhyzee in

when i look back at history, i see the great lengths people have gone to, to prove their devotion to god and to carry out what they though to be his will.. do you think the watchtower organization is truly trying to deceive people and cover things up or do you think they are honestly misguided or mistaken in some of their beliefs and policies ?

if so, what purpose would they have for doing this?.

The Finger

Deceptive

Peacedog,

Thank you for your comments. I talked with an elder several years ago and discussed Hebrews. I would agree that with this verse that Jesus isn't an angel.

If I devote myself to money and become a slave to it, it becomes my god. If i devote myself to Christ and am a footstep follower and slave of him he is my god. I cannot serve two gods.

Worship seems an integral part of the definition of God.
