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

    The word used is Elohim. In Hebrew the suffix “im” denotes a plural. For instance in English we use “s” to denote plural. So in the Hebrew word Elohim means “Gods”. Here is Strongs definition:

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

    False. Jesus is God. He is not a created being. He is the firstborn from the dead: Col.1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.

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

    Hahaha…your position is indefensible and considered heresy by traditional Christian doctrine. Your cultish beliefs have been exposed and you refuse to acknowledge your associations. Block me if you desire. Your erroneous beliefs are revealed.

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

    Why would I waste time answering your questions when you refuse to answer mine? I’ve asked you numerous times what your religious affiliation is only to have been ignored. I’ve answered your questions in the past but you have not responded to mine. I will not expend any energy to answer your...

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

    Sigh…I have shown you scripture that proves the Trinity from both the OT and NT. You have not offered one shred of evidence to refute the scriptures I provided. All you’ve done is stomp your feet and deny the evidence provided. Every time I offer proof, you dismiss it without anything to support...

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

    Hahaha…I directly addressed Col.1:15. You just didn’t like my response. Now, I would like for you to answer my question about your religious affiliation. Are you a Jehovah Witness, or an unaffiliated religious person? The reason I ask is because it would help me understand where you’re coming...

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

    Very simple…Jesus is the firstborn from the dead. You stress context, so look at the context: Col.1:13-15 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son: in whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins: Who is...

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

    Hahaha…you did not answer my question…Are you a Jehovah Witness? If not, then what is your religious persuasion? Don’t be shy now.

    Featured Matthew ch 16, verse 28, Jesus says “ . . there are some standing here who will not taste death . . ”

    Hahaha…I posted an extensive explanation at the beginning of this thread, but it fell on deaf ears.

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

    Hahaha...You cannot comprehend the Trinity because you cannot come to grips with the divinity of Jesus Christ. Your claim that Jesus was an angel is heresy and sounds very much like the Watch Tower Society doctrine. Are you a Jehovah Witness?

    Matthew chapter 16, “ . . except the sign of Jonah . . ” — yet another example of more focus on Paul’s letters than on the 3 Synoptic Gospels.

    I’m sorry friend, but a “former Christian” does not exist. The Bible is very clear in its teaching that those who put their faith in Christ are sealed by the Holy Spirit until the day of redemption (Eph.4:30). If you are not a Christian now, according to the Bible, you never were. You may have...

    Matthew chapter 16, “ . . except the sign of Jonah . . ” — yet another example of more focus on Paul’s letters than on the 3 Synoptic Gospels.

    This post makes no sense at all. First, the overwhelming number of Christians that I know believe the Bible is both inspired and literal. You seem to have the misconception that inspired and literal are opposing terms. This is simply not true. Second, word for word usually is related to...

    Matthew chapter 16, “ . . except the sign of Jonah . . ” — yet another example of more focus on Paul’s letters than on the 3 Synoptic Gospels.

    Matthew 12: 39-40 But he answered and said unto them, An evil and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given to it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas: For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and...

    No you didn’t. You gave your take on what you thought was mystical.

    Featured Matthew ch 16, verse 28, Jesus says “ . . there are some standing here who will not taste death . . ”

    If I could recite the conversation in the Authorized Scooter version I believe it would go something like this: For the Son of man will come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay every man for what he has done. Also, there are some of you who are standing here who...

    Featured Matthew ch 16, verse 28, Jesus says “ . . there are some standing here who will not taste death . . ”

    It may sound mystical to a nonbeliever but that isn’t what I referred to as false. Nowhere in scripture does Jesus suggest anyone just embrace the wonder of life. That is the false claim you made. Jesus said “Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.” There’s nothing mystical in that...

    Featured Matthew ch 16, verse 28, Jesus says “ . . there are some standing here who will not taste death . . ”

    We may not know for certain who penned the words, but we know for certain who authored it. God did. 2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 2 Peter 1:21 For the prophecy came...

    Featured Matthew ch 16, verse 28, Jesus says “ . . there are some standing here who will not taste death . . ”

    This is a false claim. Jesus never suggested anyone embrace the wonder of life. Jesus said we must repent of our sins and believe in Him to even have life.
