Join this week as she answers the following Bible Questions:
In 1 John 3:3 NKJV, what is meant by “their spiritual state”?
Greetings,
According to the doctrine of the Trinity, there is One God who exists in three Persons: God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
The Trinity also states that the three Persons are all God and are all equal.
My question is how can the articles of the Trinity doctrine be aligned with a number of sayings by Jesus Christ himself?
There are numerous verses that clash with the doctrine of the Trinity. Here is one of them as a starter:
1- The Trinity states that all three Persons are God. However, Jesus said:
"And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom you have sent." (John 17:3)
In this passage, Jesus addressed God as the "only true God". Jesus also made a clear distinction between the "only true God" and himself. In his words, he (Jesus) was sent by the "only true God".
By saying these words, we are given a clear admission from Jesus that he (Jesus) was not God, but that only the Father is the "true God".
If we disregard the words in John 17:3, and uphold the Trinity, would we not be violating the teachings of Jesus Christ?
I hope that the reply I receive will not go the route of "these words are only allegorical", which are words often employed when no rational answer can be given.
Thank you,
Ash
In Deut 24:16 it says that parents should not be put to death for sins of their children and children should not be put to death for the sins of their parents then why did God punish David in 2 Sam 12:1 - 15 by vs. 14 but because by doing this you have shown utter contempt for the Lord, the son born to you will die. It sounds like God punished the child for David's sin?
I feel like the v is the mark of the beast
