  • no but i'm not a trinitarian
  • Yes I do. If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on, you know him, and have seen him.” 8 Philip said to him, “Lord, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.” 9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you such a long time, and do you not know me, Philip? He who has seen me has seen the Father. How do you say, ‘Show us the Father?’ 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? The words that I tell you, I speak not from myself; but the Father living in me does his works. John 14:7-10
  • If He wasn't, then there would be two Gods.
  • Romans 8:34 Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—(B) who is at the right hand of God,(C) who indeed is interceding for us. 1 Timothy 2:5For there is one God, and there is one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, 6 who gave himself as a ransom for all, which is the testimony given at the proper time. John 10:36: 36do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, 'You are blaspheming,' because I said, 'I am the Son of God'? I found these online at bible.com but in my studies I've seen reference made to Jesus being inside God and God being inside Jesus. This, I understood, came as a result of perfect obedience because God lives in YOU when you prepare a place for Him in your heart in obedience. I typically pray directly to God in Jesus' name and I remind God(as though He could forget) that I don't expect the forgiveness I'm asking for because I'm worthy of it, but because Jesus already died for every sin I've ever committed and ever will commit. So for His own name's sake, I ask that He forgive me in accordance with His promise, in Jesus' name. It seems to work for me. :)
  • I do not believe that Jesus was God. I believe Jesus was a prophet, the messiah, the Christ...but not God. Some basic questions to those that do, and please please please don't just post scripture...I have read it and understand it, I want open discussion not preaching. If Jesus was God, and God can not die, but Jesus did...how is this possible If Jesus was God, was it a sacrifice since He knew He couldn't die. Does Jesus HIMSELF say that he is God? (you may post scripture to answer this one) or are the times it is said the understanding by mortal men? If God can create anything (which I adamantly belive) could He not have just, created Jesus on earth as he did Adam and Eve? Since He did not, does this mean that Mary and God had a relationship (absurd I know..but please answer and explain)
  • Honestly to tell you i cant rember were it is in the bible but Jesus is God in human form. It does say it in the Bible. No it would not be considered a sacrifice cause he died for our sins. The rest i will have to get back with you at somepoint
  • I do also.
  • No, I don't.
  • Nope I believe they are separate
  • I believe they are seperate, and the third is the Holy Spirit.
  • If I did believe in that perspective, I would believe in a paradox I think, one but three. I believe that how you view God has an influence on who you try to become and the decisions that you make, in other words that how you view God has practical consequences, and I think this is the view that would make the most sense to me on a practical level. Whether God exists or not I do not know.
  • "These things I do and greater things shall ye do." implies that Jesus was the role model for us to follow toward liberation. "I and the Father are one." is not exclusive to Jesus. It is for all Christians to aspire to.
  • A believe he was a great prophet,and one that never professed any religion.I do not believe him to be a god nor the son of god.
  • Yes. Almost all Christians believe in the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. The doctrine of the Holy Trinity states there is one true God who is made up of three separate but equal persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Bible does not contain the word Trinity. However, the Holy Trinity is hinted at repeatedly in both the Old and New Testaments. For many biblical references, see: http://www.cwo.com/~pentrack/catholic/Trinity.txt Under the influence of the Holy Spirit, the early Christians prayed and struggled over these hints for a couple of centuries. The concept of the Holy Trinity (three equal persons in one God) was mainstream Christianity in 325 C.E. at the Council of Nicaea and our belief is expressed in the Nicene Creed. How this works is not fully known and is one the Christian mysteries. The doctrine of the Holy Trinity is shared by most Christian denominations including Roman and Orthodox Catholics, Lutherans, Anglicans, Baptists, Methodists, Presbyterians, Pentecostals, Episcopalians, and the Salvation Army. For more information, see Catechism of the Catholic Church, sections 232 and following: http://www.usccb.org/catechism/text/pt1sect2chpt1art1p2.shtml#232 The major non-Trinitarian churches are Christadelphianism, Christian Science, Jehovah’s Witnesses, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, Arian Catholicism, Unitarianism, Nontrinitarianism, and Oneness Pentecostals. With love in Christ.
  • I'm in the midst of a religious inner turmoil. At this point in time, I believe Jesus to be a prophet.
  • Yes I do but I also believe we are all just a small part of a greater Universe more vast than any human mind can even begin to comprehend, and that frightens and intimidates most, and causes some to live in total denial of the remarkable miracles that are in abundance around them.
  • The trinity, three in one, The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Yes.
