Genesis 19:24. In this text Abraham is visited by three individuals, one being Yahweh and the other two angels.

This incident when Abraham met with Yahweh God, is what Jesus referred to when he said, "Your father Abraham rejoiced to see My day, and he saw it and was glad." (John 8:56) The unanimous opinion of the apostolic Fathers was that Jesus visited Abraham in Genesis 18 and 19.

403: International Standard Bible Encyclopedia (ISBE)
This might seem to suggest that the Father alone is properly God and the Son and Spirit are only secondarily so. Many early statements appear to support this." (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia, ISBE) What they fail to tell the same article also says: "Introduction. Though "trinity" is a second-century term found nowhere in the Bible, and the Scriptures present no finished trinitarian statement, the NT does contain most of the building materials for later doctrine. In particular, while insisting on one God, it presents Jesus Christ as the divine Son in distinction from God the Father, and probably presents the Holy Spirit or Paraclete as a divine person distinct from both. Obvious problems admittedly attach to both claims; indeed, "person" as a trinitarian (threeness) term has itself been controversial since Augustine, and especially in the modem period. Still, the doctrine of the trinity does lie in Scripture "in solution" (B. B. Warfield, ISBE [1929], s.v.); i.e., the NT ... ...

404: How Can Man Be Justified With God?
How Can Man Be Justified With God? The dictionary defines the word justify as "To declare guiltless or blameless". This word as it is used in a Biblical way, "To regard and treat as righteous on the ground of Christ's mediatorial work". The Apostle Paul said in Romans Chapter 5, verse 1, "Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ". He continued his message to the people in Rome by stating in Romans Chapter 6, verses 17 and 18, "But God be thanked, that you were the servants of sin, but you have obeyed from the heart that form of doctrine which was delivered you. Being then made free ... The doctrine was the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus. One cannot obey the facts of the gospel, but one can obey a form of his death, burial and resurrection.

406: The Interactive Bible:
Does my pastor meet the Bible's qualifications? Elders and Deacons The church described in the New Testament is the spiritual body of Christ. The Apostle Paul, speaking of Jesus Christ, says in Ephesians 1:22,23, "And gave him to be head over all things to the church which is his body". A body is a living organism. The church is divine in its origin, since it was built by Christ himself. Jesus told the Apostle Peter after Peter had confessed him to be the Christ, the son of the Living God, that he would build his church (Matthew 16:16-18). The church is both divine and human since it was originated by our Lord and includes human beings. Just as a physical human body is a living organism, so is the church that Jesus built. Just as our physical bodies have structure and organization, so also the church has structure and organization. The church is not simply an organism, it is a well structured organization. When the Apostle Paul wrote a letter to the church at Philippi, he addressed it ... ...

408: Lesson 20: Infants Are Not Lost
We now turn our attention to another perversion of God's word and that is infants are born sinners and must be baptized in order to be saved. This contradicts God's word.

409: What is Bible Repentance?
Repentance involves changing one's affections - from earthly things to heavenly things. It involves turning to the living God from a god of self. It is looking unto Christ instead of looking unto another. Repentance requires the right attitude towards sin. This is Godly sorrow. Repentance is the right attitude toward God, it is a return to God. Repentance is the right attitude toward self. The Prodigal Son came to himself. Repentance is the right attitude toward others. The Phillipian jailer took Paul and Silas the same hour of the night and washed their stripes. Repentance is not just Godly sorrow. Paul told the Corinthians in II Cornithians, Chapter 7, verse ... This story is told in Matthew Chapter 21, verses 28 and 29. Whatever this young man did, Jesus said he repented. Jesus called his actions repentance.

414: Why Be Baptized?
Among our Lord's last words to his disciples was the charge to preach the saving gospel to all men. In Matthew Chapter 28,verse 19, he said, "Go you therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost". The question before us is what was and is the action of that baptism commanded by Christ and his apostles. The Bible clearly describes the action of Christian baptism as a burial in water, for baptism is a likeness to the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ. We are not saved by our own goodness, but by the goodness, the love, and the favor of God. We are not saved by our own merit, but by ... For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection."

So at best, Arians who argue that "only-begotten" proves Jesus is a creature are in the same type of situation Bible believers are in when they say the term "Son of God" applied to Jesus implies Very God and not a creature. In both cases, it cannot be proven by the Greek, although both interpretations are allowed by the Greek! Yet discussing "only-begotten" Kittel, openly states that Jesus is VERY God "divine sonship". What this means is that although Kittel says that "only-begotten" might imply the origin of Jesus is the Father, he rejects that this means Jesus is a creature, even if that is the case!. Kittel openly states that Jesus has always existed. Kittel's does suggest that this begetting could refer to the human phase of Jesus existence, "When Jn. speaks of the Son of God, he has primarily in view the man Jesus Christ". but even if this is so, Kittel denies it means Jesus is a creature.

you think Jesus Christ is?", we would get a wide range of answers. Some would say Jesus was an ancient philosopher. Others, that He was a powerful religious leader or an influential social reformer. A few might even deny that He ever existed. The Lord conducted His own poll by asking his followers, "Who does the public say that I am" (Luke 9:18)? Not surprisingly, Jesus got a wide range of answers. But Jesus was most interested in what His followers thought so He next asked, "But who do you say that I am?"

434: Who is the ANTICHRIST?
This is the antichrist, the one who denies the Father and the Son. Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father; the one who confesses the Son has the Father also." 1 John 4:2-3 "By this you know the Spirit of God: every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is from God; and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God; and this is the spirit of the antichrist, of which you have heard that it is coming, and now it is already in the world." 2 John 1:7 "For many deceivers have gone out into the world, those who do not acknowledge Jesus Christ as coming in the flesh. This is the deceiver and the antichrist." From the Bible we can clearly see 3 things. First, the "antichrist" is defined as anyone who doesn't believe Jesus is the divine son of God. Second, "antichrists" appear to actively teach against Christ. Third, there were many "antichrists" in the world when John wrote the book.

437: Jocz, Jacob: The Jewish People and Jesus Christ
To the question : Who is Jesus of Nazareth? Judaism and Christianity give two opposite answers. In the difference of the answer lies their difference. Whenever the Church offers a more "Jewish" answer, the Lordship of Jesus Christ becomes a special issue. The moment we profess Jesus Christ as Lord a missionary situation is created. (The Jewish People and Jesus Christ, 1979, Jacob Jocz, p47) Our comment For Arians (JW's, Christadelphians) to appeal to Hindus, Jews and Muslims to support their false doctrine is nothing short of incredible! Doing such is as dishonest as it is deceptive! JW's have not comprehended that if they had the Governing Body themselves sit down and explain their view of God (Father-true God, Son-a god and Holy Spirit-the force or energy of God) Hindus, Jews and Muslims would immediately label JW's as TRINITARIANS or TWINITARIANS!

438: Muller, James Arthur: Creeds and Loyalty
What Anti-Trinitarians quote: "This lack of a formulated doctrine of the Trinity reflects the theological thought of the second century. In the works of Justin Martyr, who wrote in about 150 A.D., the preexistence of the Son is stressed, yet in relation to the Father He is spoken of as 'in the second place.'" (Creeds and Loyalty, James Arthur Muller, Episcopal professor of church history, p9) Our comment Biblical Trinitarians totally agree with this quote! The Athanasius creed is nothing more than human attempts to describe the raw Biblical date of the trinity, namely the deity of Christ and the personality of the Holy Spirit. Although they correctly define the Son and Holy Spirit as persons of God, they err in their view that the three are equal and not subordinate. Deception Exposed: The deception is that anti-Trinitarians create a false dilemma by projecting the false impression in the mind of the reader that if the "Formulated trinity doctrine" (of the Athanasius creed) is not in ... ...
