351: Kelly, J.N.D.: Early Christian Doctrines
... As regards the relation of the Three, there is little to be gleaned from Justin beyond his statement that Christians venerate Christ and the Spirit in the second and the third ranks respectively. 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'. This order, however, was not intended to suggest degrees of subordination within the ... The Watchtower deliberately leaves the false impression that the source openly admits that there is no basis of the Trinity in either the Bible or the first 300 years of church history! When you see a name like J. N. D. Kelly, being quoted by the JW's, you can be guaranteed they must misrepresent him! There is nothing Kelly would say that would support the JW's view of Jesus being a creature or that the Holy Spirit cannot be a person! Go To Alphabetical Index Of Deceptive Quotes ... ...

353: Is Jesus Christ, God's only true Son?
Further, Jesus alone, of all the world's religious founders, claimed to be the very deity he represented. Muhammad did not claim to be Allah; Buddha did not claim to be Brahma; Socrates did not claim to be Zeus; Moses did not claim to be Jehovah.

Col. 3:16 reads, "Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with gladness in your hearts to the Lord."

In other words, there is no power being transmitted by the hypnotist to the person being hypnotized. Instead, Braid understood, we know today, that people hypnotize themselves.

358: Development from the trinity as taught in the Bible and the trinity ...
... By the end of the fourth century, and owing mainly to the challenge posed by various heresies, theologians went beyond the immediate testimony of the Bible and also beyond liturgical and creedal expressions of trinitarian faith to the ontological trinity of coequal persons "within" God. The shift is from function to ontology, from the "economic trinity" (Father, Son, and Spirit in relation to us) to the "immanent" or "essential Trinity" (Father, Son, and Spirit in relation to each other). It was prompted chiefly by belief in the divinity of ... As far as the New Testament is concerned, one does not find in it an actual doctrine of the Trinity.

363: Lamson, Alvan: The Church of the First Three Centuries
"Summing up the historical evidence, Alvan Lamson says in The Church of the First Three Centuries: "The modern popular doctrine of the Trinity . . . derives no support from the language of Justin [Martyr]: and this observation may be extended to all the ante-Nicene Fathers; that is, to all Christian writers for three centuries after the birth of Christ.

The developed 12th century "Athanasius creed" version of trinity doctrine is not found in scripture, but that is not the issue. What is important is that Justin and all most of the Ante-Nicene Fathers clearly taught that Jesus was uncreated God and the Holy Spirit was a person, being the third person in the trinity. This is taught both in scripture and the Ante-Nicene Fathers! Another quote from Lamson's book "The doctrine of the Trinity was of gradual and comparatively late formation; . . . it had its origin ... ...
