    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    AgnosticBoy: Your attempt at dancing around Numbers 23:19 by claiming at the time it was written, Jesus's birth on earth had not yet occurred falls flat. Here's why: Even after Jesus showed up on earth in human form, the Bible continued to say the following: "No man hath seen God at any...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    AgnosticBoy: Your quoting of Scooter's lame arguments by using Scooter's use of isolated verses (while ignoring context at Genesis 1:26) amounts to the blind leading the blind. Genesis 1:26 is clearly not literal since the Bible makes it clear that God is a spirit and humans are flesh and...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    Scooter: The only solid evidence you've presented thus far is of your ability to cherry-pick verses and your ability to even isolate a single word within an entire verse--and ignore context. The quotation at Genesis 18:1 debunks your claim that Jesus appeared to Abraham since the verse...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    My opinion, when the scripture I quoted clearly says "Jehovah" (the Father) was the one who appeared to Abraham and made no mention of Jesus (the son)? The laugh is on you, Scooter. Genesis 18:1 -- American Standard Version "And Jehovah appeared unto him [Abraham] by the oaks of Mamre, as he...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    I didn't point out anything of the kind. You are ignoring the fact that I placed it in quotation signs, as follows: Quotation signs around a word (when the word is not part of an actual quotation) are meant to alert a reader that the person who wrote that word in quotations is distancing him...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    Almighty God Jehovah was accompanied by seraphs/angels when He said "who will go for us," and you're arguing there's no mention of angels by Isaiah at Isaiah 6:2? Isaiah 6:2 Seraphs were standing above him; each had six wings. Each covered his face with two and covered his feet with two, and...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    That's wishful thinking on your part, Scooter. The scripture named JEHOVAH aka YAHWEH aka YHWH (the Father) as the person that appeared to Abraham at Genesis 18:1. Below are five different Bibles saying exactly that. "And Jehovah appeared unto him by the oaks of Mamre, as he sat in the tent...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    Telling me Jesus is not an angel is the typical denial I get from Trinitarians so they can continue clinging to the falsehood that Jesus is "God in the flesh," Scooter. Scripture makes it clear that Almighty God is not human. "God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    Scooter: There are no scriptures in the Old Testament aka Hebrew Scriptures that says Jesus wrestled with Jacob. Again, Jesus didn't show up on earth until the First Century C.E. when he was born as an infant. What you are referencing is the scriptural account at Genesis 32:22-31 where...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    Scooter: You are cherry-picking and ignoring the context (surrounding words, verses, and/or chapters). The preceding verses mention that Jehovah was accompanied by "seraphs" aka angels. Isaiah 6:1 In the year that King Uz·ziʹah died, I saw Jehovah sitting on a lofty and elevated throne, and...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    Nonsense. Genesis 18:1-2 makes no mention of Jesus, and for good reason: The writing of that book was completed by Moses in 1513 B.C.E. At that point in time, Jesus was still heaven and had not yet been sent to earth. It was not until the First Century C.E., over a thousand years later, that...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    Genesis 1:26 doesn't do a thing for your trinitarian argument, Scooter, because at that point, there were millions of angels in existence. Jehovah God happened to be speaking to one of them. The same one that came to earth and given the name Jesus.

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    Your problem, AgnosticBoy, is that you are inventing you own version of trinity in an attempt at dancing around Christendom's version. But your attempt fails just as Christendom's version fails. Here's why: Christendom's Trinity and your version both rely on the existence of three spirit...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    So you claim, Scooter, without quoting a single verse of scripture to support YOUR personal philosophy. Begin by providing your first three scriptural examples. Quote the verses verbatim and provide Bible book, chapter, and verse. If you provide more than three scriptural examples, I will...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    Disagreeing with me isn't going to change the fact that the idea of a 3-in-1 god didn't show up in Christendom until 300 years after the Bible was written. Neither does your disagreeing with me change the historical fact that the dogma was formulated under two Roman emperors (Emperor...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    The Abrahamic God does not exist as a trinity. As I previously stated, there are no scriptures in the Judeo-Christian Bible in support of the dogma, and, in fact, this pagan belief was developed by the Roman Catholic Church in the third century C.E. or 300 years after Jesus Christ returned to...

    Featured Where is Heaven and Hell located?

    1. Heaven where the Abrahamic God resides is above. Hell, according to scripture, is nothing more than mankind's common grave. 2. Hell and Hades are synonyms. The both mean "the grave." So there is no difference. 2. Heaven is the place where God resides. Paradise is simply a condition...

    Featured Does the Old Testament make any reference to the Trinity?

    The concept of the trinity is nowhere to be found in God's inspired word the Bible. The dogma was formulated 300 years after the Bible was written. The formulation was refined under two Roman emperors with the urging of Catholic bishops.

    Does Christianity say that all other religions are false?

    1. Christianity is the only religion supported by scripture. But keep in mind that the 40,000+ denominations within Christendom are not necessarily teaching truth either.

    Does having sex make you married to the person? "The two will become one flesh"

    1. Any type of sexual behavior is considered unclean among people that are unmarried. Remember the Bill Clinton episode with Monica Lewinsky? 2. Sex does not constitute marriage. Ask any prostitute who has had sex with numerous strangers. The Bible describes unmarried sexual activity as...
