101: Encyclopædia Britannica

Constantine's personal "theology" emerges with particular clarity from a remarkable series of letters, extending from 313 to the early 320s, concerning the ... It is no wonder that the continuation of the dispute on the basis of the metaphysics of substance likewise led to concepts that have no foundation in the New Testament such as the question of the sameness of essence (homoousia) or similarity of essence (homoiousia) of the divine persons. (Encyclopedia Britannica, ... I, p.509) The basic concern of Arius was and remained disputing the oneness of essence of the Son and the Holy Spirit with God the Father, in order to preserve the oneness of God. The Son, thus, became a "second God, under God the Father"-i.e., he is God only in a figurative sense, for he belongs on the side of the creatures, even if at their highest ... ...

102: Kelly, J.N.D.: Early Christian Doctrines
"What the Apologists had to say about the Holy Spirit was much more meagre" (Watchtower, Aug. 1, 1984, pg 23, quoting, J.N.D.

Athenagoras echoes this idea when he inveighs [a verbal attack] against labeling as atheists 'men who acknowledge God the Father, God the Son and the Holy Spirit, and declare both Their power in union and Their distinction in order'.

103: Major errors of Pentecostalism
There is a stress on teaching the authority of the believer over Satan and demons. Angels are our servants and we are to command them. 11. LACK OF BALANCE - Teachings stress FAITH, HEALTH, WEALTH, GIFTS OF THE SPIRIT, DELIVERANCE, SUPERNATURAL POWER, VICTORY. Little theology is taught, no systematic Bible teaching. A College Professor Asks: IS IT REVIVAL? This version: March 8, 1997 There is much talk in Pentecostal circles about ... If what is occurring is not bearing witness of Jesus Christ, then it is NOT of the Spirit. Too much of an emphasis on the Spirit runs the risk of planting seeds for a renewed modalism, i.e., the idea that we do not serve a Trinity, but one God who has worn 3 masks: the Father in the Old Testament, the Son while Jesus was on earth, and now the mask of the Holy Spirit. Modalism, which is the prominent feature of United Pentecostalism, has soundly been condemned throughout Church history (and by the Assemblies of God in their Statement of Fundamental ... ...

104: Hastings, James: Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics
... As Augustine said, "if in the books of the Platonists it was to be found that 'in the beginning was the Word,' it was not found there that 'the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.'" (Encyclopædia of Religion and Ethics, James Hastings, Trinity, p 458) In the New Testament we do not find the doctrine of the Trinity in anything like its developed form, not even in the Pauline and Johannine theology, although ample witness is borne to the religious experience from which the doctrine springs. None the less Christ is acknowledged as the eternal Son of God and the supreme revelation of the Father, and the quickening Spirit of life is acknowledged to be derived ' ... The Triunity represents the effort to think out the Trinity, and so to afford it a reasonable basis.

105: Boer, Harry R.: A Short History of the Early Church
... Interesting that Boer also claims that Constantine's son, Constantius, used his role as emperor to enforce Arianism, to exile pro-Nicene opponents and influence theology towards Arius. Hence the argument that Constantine is the catalyst of trinity doctrine is no stronger than the argument that Constantius is the catalyst of Arian doctrine. Full texts "This centrality of Christ in the faith and witness of the church arises directly out of the New Testament.

Click to View The irrefutable argument stated: Isaiah 45:23-24 states that every knee shall bow to Jehovah and every tongue shall confess allegiance to Jehovah. Isaiah 45:23-24 is quoted and applied to the Father in Romans 14:9-12 and applied to the Son in Philippians 2:9-11 Therefore Jehovah is applied to both the Father and the Son.

The Spirit is called the Spirit of God, as well as the Spirit of Christ (Rom. 8:9)., Here, too, however, the Spirit is not yet conceived in personal terms, at least not in the sense of the later doctrine of the Trinity. The New Testament is not satisfied, however, with these sometimes rather far-reaching assertions about God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Some passages present triadic formulas. They are called "triadic," and not "trinitarian," because they name Father, Son, and Spirit alongside one another without reflecting upon the oneness of God and, hence, do not yet contain a doctrine of the ... ...
