451: Trinity proof texts: Revelation 22:3
This is very significant, because when we finally get to the end of the book, we see Christians called bondslaves of both the Father and the son USING THE SINGLULAR twice in Rev 22:3 and Rev 22:6. Revelation 22:6 Another is the continued use of the singular to refer to both the Father and the Son: "And he said to me, "These words are faithful and true"; and the Lord, the God of the spirits of the prophets, sent His angel to show to His bond-servants the things which must soon take place. " (Revelation 22:6) This is doubly emphasized by Rev 22:16, where Jesus says it was He who sent his angel to Christians. Revelation 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave Him to show to His [Christ's] bond-servants, the things which must soon take place; and He sent and communicated it by His angel to His [Christ's] bond-servant John, Revelation 2:20 'But I have this against you, that you tolerate the woman Jezebel , who calls herself a prophetess , and she teaches and leads My [Christ's] ... ...

457: Would you die to promote a lies and deception?
They touched Him, they ate with Him, they heard Him teach them, they saw Him under a variety of circumstances, and when more than five hundred persons were present. (I Cor. 15:5-8). It was impossible for so many to have been deceived so many times. They knew that Christ had been raised from the dead and they demonstrated their sincerity by dying for this great truth. Theirs was not just a subjective experience. Once we accept the truth of the resurrection, to which they bore witness, it is easy to accept the other miracles of Jesus and to accept the truth of His teaching. Paul, who was not with Christ in His personal ministry, knew whether he had seen the Lord, whether the Lord appeared to him at other times, whether his experience was corroborated by the Lord's instructions to Ananias, whether he had learned the gospel directly from Jesus and not from men, whether he taught the same message the other apostles taught, whether he worked a wide variety of miracles, and whether he was ... ...

459: Is the RC church infallible and unable to make errors?
... "In these words Christ assures the infant Church of the abiding presence of the Spirit of Truth guiding her in her teaching mission." (The Faith of Millions, p. 136). "He is the Spirit of Truth, whom the world of unbelievers (John xv. 19; xvii. 9, 25) cannot receive (John xiv. 13-17, 25, 26; xv. 26; xvi. 13).

(My Catholic Faith, p. 105). As we noticed before, the Catholic writers in effort to prove that the church is infallible are quoting passages which referred to the apostles only and are applying them to the church. The apostles alone were given the promise of the Holy Spirit. It was not given to the infant church. The apostles were the only ones with Jesus when the promise was made and it was made directly to them. (See John chapters 13-16). They were to wait in Jerusalem to receive the Holy Spirit. ... ...

469: Biblical Subordination expressed by scholars
Subordination Within The Godhead Biblical Subordination expressed by scholars: Pauline Writings, Summary: ... Without doubt Paul attributes full divinity to Jesus ... Though at times he presents the Son as in some sense subordinate to the Father, he never makes the Son a creature. (The Triune God, Edmund Fortman, p23) Paul calls Him the image of God, Lord, Son of God, Christ. and Savior; he says that He subsists in the form of God and is equal to God; he assigns to Him the divine functions of creation, salvation, and judgment; and he probably also calls Him God explicitly. Paul makes Christ's ... Possibly he thus means merely to subordinate Christ in His humanity to the Father. But more probably he wishes to indicate that while Christ is truly divine and on the same divine level with the Father, yet there must be assigned to the Father a certain priority and superiority over the Son because He is the Father of the Son and sends the Son to redeem men, and there must be ascribed to the ... ...

470: What Must I Do To Be Saved ?
An example of this part of conversion is found in Acts 2 in response to Peter's preaching of Christ. The Bible says, "Now when they heard this, they were pricked in the heart and said unto Peter, 'Men and brethren what shall we do?' Then Peter said unto them, repent and be baptized everyone of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost" (Acts 2: 36-38). Third, this change in a person's heart must lead to certain actions before conversion is complete. One of these actions is confession that Jesus is the Christ, for we read, "With the heart man believeth unto righteousness and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation" (Rom. 10: 9,10). Finally, a person must be baptized in the likeness of Christ's death and burial (Rom. 6: 4) in order for God to forgive him of past sins. The Bible says, "Arise and be baptized and wash away thy sins calling on the name of the Lord" (Acts 22: 16). And we also remember in a scripture we ... ...

Christ himself set the example of obedience to the Father's will. "Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered; and being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation unto all them that obey him". Hebrews 5: 8,9. Christ said, "I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me" John 6: 38. Again Christ said, "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my father which is in heaven" Matthew 7: 21.

474: Commentary on what the early Christians believed about the Trinity
They affirmed the divinity and distinct personality of Christ quite clearly and that of the Holy Spirit less clearly. They offered no trinitarian doctrine and saw no trinitarian problem.

In this respect the New Testament, the Apostolic Fathers, and the Apostles' Creed stand in one line. (A Short History of the Early Church, Harry R. Boer, p108-110) The early Fathers were persuaded that indications of the doctrine of the Trinity must exist in the Old Testament and they found such indications in not a few passages.

475: Trinity proof texts: Mark 2:7
And he rose and immediately took up the pallet and went out in the sight of all; so that they were all amazed and were glorifying God, saying, "We have never seen anything like this." The irrefutable argument stated: "Who can forgive sins except one, God?" Mark 2:7 Jesus forgave the sins of others in a way obviously different from the common practice of the Levitical priests and the Jews called it blasphemy. Jesus must therefore be God. Comments: It was a common practice for the Levitical priests ... To correct the "alleged Jewish misunderstanding", Jesus could have simply said, "Hey guys, I am forgiving in the same way your Levitical Priests do! I am not God any more than they!" But he did not correct them, but rather reinforced their view because it was correct! Only God can forgive sin!

general guidelines that enable one to find through their application the right direction. One such guideline is suggested in Luke 2:51, a direct statement of the condition existing in the family of Jesus Christ. The passage reads, "And he went down with them and came to Nazareth and he was subject to them". The "he" in the passage was Jesus and the "them" was Mary and Joseph. The broad principle illustrated in this passage teaches that parents are given by God the authority to direct, guide, teach and discipline their children. If the son of God accepted the authority of earthly parents how much more ought the sons and daughters of men be under the authority of their parents. The next principle illustrated by this statement in Luke shows that children are to accept their direction and to be subject to their parents. To provide that direction for their children, parents must take the job of being parents seriously. Being a parent is much more than fulfilling a biological function. ... ...

480: Gifts ceased: Encyclopedia of Pentecostal objections and their ...
... Nowhere does Paul so much as hint that supernatural gifts were given to the church because Christians were unable to love each other! In the miraculous age of the first century, Paul wanted them to have love and gifts (12:31; 14:1). "When the perfect comes" refers to Christ. (He is perfect & coming again) "Perfect" is neuter gender; "Christ" is always masculine gender. Does not say, "when He who is perfect comes" but "when THAT" Perfect refers to a thing, not a person and certainly not Christ. Jesus is a person, not a thing! The Greek forbids this interpretation. "Perfect" refers to the second coming or our perfection in heaven. Neither heaven nor eternity is mentioned anywhere in this context. We have already proven that gifts must cease before the second coming and that faith and hope must abide LONGER than the gifts. Such facts Pentecostals cannot account for without employing an unbiblical definition of faith and hope that extends them both into all eternity. If Paul is saying ... ...

Much to my surprise I realized an error in their teaching that the fall of Babylon occurred in 607BCE. In my personal research I found the date to be 587BCE. That may not seem like a big deal but you see their whole premise of Jesus returning invisibly in 1914 is based on this date. This discovery led me to question other things and do some bible reading and as I read the bible alone I realized that their teaching on 144,000 and the other sheep was totally wrong etc etc. One thing led to another.

487: Lohse, Bernard: A Short History of Christian Doctrine
It is another question, of course, whether or not the church, in developing the doctrine of the Trinity, had recourse to certain thought forms already present in the philosophical and religious environment, in order that, with the help of these, it might give its own faith clear intellectual expression. This question must definitely be answered in the affirmative. In particular cases the appropriation of this concept or that can often be proved. Unfortunately, however, it is true that particularly in reference to the beginnings of the doctrine of the Trinity there is still much uncertainty. In this area final clarity has not yet been achieved. As far as the New Testament is concerned, one does not find in it an actual doctrine of the Trinity. This does not mean very much, however, for generally speaking the New Testament is less intent upon setting forth certain doctrines than it is upon proclaiming the kingdom of God, a kingdom that dawns in and with the person of Jesus Christ.

The cults used many different means to affect the emotions and imaginations of initiates and hence bring about "union with the god": processions, fasting, a play, acts of purification, blazing lights, and esoteric liturgies.

Under the New Testament we do not offer animal sacrifices as the Jews did under the Old Testament; but we give Him our lives in service to Him as a living sacrifice. In doing this we must give Him our all. Anything we do for God must be our very best. Jesus tells us in Matthew 22:37, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and all your soul, and all your mind." All our heart, soul, and mind, or in other words, our total being must be in our worship. How do we show our love to God? Our Lord says in John 14:21, "He who has my commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me." We show our love to God when we keep His commandments. We do not show our love to God if we only keep the commandments we want to keep or if we add some of our own commandments.

Jesus expressed this in these words, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth on him should not perish but have everlasting life" (John, Chapter 3, verse 16).
