yes very good post indeed
The trinity
From 2 dead languages, (latin and old greek) to old english and old german to english to american then to all the brown people languages.
>Obviously the trinity is paganism
Only Arians and Muslims say heresy like this.
>they don't understand that one cannot equal three.
You don't understand that an infinite intangible being can and will if it deems it morally necessary, take a sliver of it's infinity and shape it into the soul of a morally perfect man inhabiting a flesh and blood body aka a son of god.
>Jesus was not eternal
Yes he is. His soul existed as a part of gid for as long as god was.
>Jesus did not exist in the time of Abraham and Moses, and the OT prophets did not know of Jesus, by this logic, this means that Abraham and even Adam and Eve are unsaved
Old covenent, new covenent. The difference lost on you?
>they really are a bunch of idiots.
No you are because your stupid god model doesn't work. God was responsible for our sins and it was his moral duty to come down from heaven and suffer as he had us suffer to grant us salvation through his blood and flesh. Anything less would be chaos worship.
Catholics use statues, paintings, and other artistic devices to recall the person or thing depicted
>Only Arians and Muslims say heresy like this.
Jews as well speak this simple truth. In fact, every other Abrahamic religion will agree on this. Don't forget the original Jewish Christians themselves and modern Unitarians.
>You don't understand that an infinite intangible being can and will if it deems it morally necessary, take a sliver of it's infinity and shape it into the soul of a morally perfect man inhabiting a flesh and blood body aka a son of god.
God has no physical form. Anyone who would look onto God would perish: "God said, "You cannot see My face, for no man can see Me and live!"
>Yes he is. His soul existed as a part of gid for as long as god was.
And this is never mentioned in the OT despite Jesus supposedly already existing. Really makes you think.
>Old covenent, new covenent. The difference lost on you?
There wasn't a difference in the amount of Gods between OT and NT; "Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them" and "The Father is greater than I".
>No you are because your stupid god model doesn't work.
There is no God "model". There is simply God and the objectively correct understanding of God. You have an incorrect understanding along with many others.
>God was responsible for our sins and it was his moral duty to come down from heaven and suffer as he had us suffer to grant us salvation through his blood and flesh. Anything less would be chaos worship.
And so why didn't Jesus come earlier if it was his moral duty? This isn't a part of Church doctrine, but that is insane to pretend God has to "suffer", of course God has to power to do as God wills; God does not need to suffer to grant salvation, it may simply be granted by the Lord's will.
So with this being said, I think protestants are generally good people, and some orthodox, but catholic larping seems not great. I pretty much meant Catholics on this board, protestants, Orthodox, and some Catholics elsewhere are good religions.
There is one God (Deuteronomy 6:4; Isaiah 45:5-6). Yet there are three persons presented as deity in Scripture: the Father (John 6:27; Colossians 1:3), the Son (John 1:1-3, 14; 8:24; 20:28-29; Romans 9:5; Titus 2:13; 2 Peter 1:1; Hebrews 1:10-12) and the Holy Spirit (John 14:16-17; Acts 5:3-4; 2 Samuel 23:2-3; 2 Corinthians 3:18). Lastly, these three are presented as distinct persons (John 8:16-18; Luke 11:1; 3:21-22; Galatians 4:6). Thus from Scripture we learn that although there is one God, there are three distinct persons who are deity. So the Trinity is the biblical position to hold to once one examines what Scripture teaches.
Why do christians want to hold onto their idolatry so much?
Couldn't let go of their pagan roots, so they do mental gymnastics to believe 1=3, and they are monotheists too.
What a lying little viper. The trinity was taught by Ignatius, the first "church father".
