shdemidemi: Matthew 4:10
New International Version (NIV)
10 Jesus said to him, “Away from me, Satan! For it is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God, and serve him only.’[a]”

and SATAN addressed him thus :

"If you are the Son of God," he said, "throw yourself down."

appears you know more than SATAN.

36 “Who is he, sir?” the man asked. “Tell me so that I may believe in him.”

59 While they were stoning him, Stephen prayed, “Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” 60 Then he fell on his knees and cried out, “Lord, do not hold this sin against them.” When he had said this, he fell asleep.

You are still not able to show us where TRINITY is stated in the bible or 3 GODs = 1 , until then you are wasting your time.

1 Corinthians 1:1-2
New International Version (NIV)
1 Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and our brother Sosthenes,

2 To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be his holy people, together with all those everywhere who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ—their Lord and ours:

1 Kings 18:24
New International Version (NIV)
24 Then you call on the name of your god, and I will call on the name of the Lord. The god who answers by fire—he is God.”

Then all the people said, “What you say is good.”

Zechariah 13:9
New International Version (NIV)
9 This third I will put into the fire;
I will refine them like silver
and test them like gold.
They will call on my name
and I will answer them;
I will say, ‘They are my people,’
and they will say, ‘The Lord is our God.’”

Romans 10:13-14
New International Version (NIV)
13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”[a]

14 How, then, can they call on the one they have not believed in? And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?

COINED FROM


Joel 2:32
New International Version (NIV)
32 And everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord will be saved;
for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
there will be deliverance,
as the Lord has said,
even among the survivors
whom the Lord calls.[a]

New International Version (NIV)
6 For to us a child is born,
to us a son is given,
and the government will be on his shoulders.
And he will be called
Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
7 Of the greatness of his government and peace
there will be no end.
He will reign on David’s throne
and over his kingdom,
establishing and upholding it
with justice and righteousness
from that time on and forever.
The zeal of the Lord Almighty
will accomplish this.

They came to pay him respect , homage etc.

oh and Jesus is the One who continuously gets this respect and homage, not Stephen or Paul. Is it okay for your catholic friends to pay this respect and homage to Mary? Why did Peter and the fellow in Revelations reject this "respect" because they are MEN?

Shocking question, you really need some more bible lessons.

Shocking question, you really need some more bible lessons.

Frosbel has no backbone, what a way to answer a simple question.

Self identification of God in a plural form-
Genesis 1:26 Then God (elohim) said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness;
'Genesis 3:22 Then the LORD God(elohim) said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us,
Genesis 11:7 7 Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language,
Isaiah 6:8 Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying: “Whom shall I send, And who will go for Us?”
It will then make sense when the angels shout in Isaiah 6:3 -And one cried to another and said: “Holy, holy, holy(three times) is the LORD of hosts; The whole earth is full of His glory!”

John 4:21-25

New King James Version (NKJV)

21 Jesus said to her, “Woman, believe Me, the hour is coming when you will neither on this mountain, nor in Jerusalem, worship the Father. 22 You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews. 23 But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth; for the Father is seeking such to worship Him. 24 God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”

25 The woman said to Him, “I know that Messiah is coming” (who is called Christ). “When He comes, He will tell us all things.”

Read carefully this english words and see who the isrealites worship, who Christ said we should worship, who is seeking true worshipers, who reconciled us to himself through Christ-Col 1:19-20, 2cor 5:18-21(do you know what this means?), who we all go to through Christ(Jn14:6). It is either you obey Christ, through whom God has called you for reconciliation and while doing so you are obeying the will of the Father cos Christ brought the will of the father to us. Do you disagree? Don't deceive your self by running around these things. you are not doing it for me.

Look! see! they also know about the coming Messiah-Christ.
You have heard from the Master...Worship God

I say Amen to the above. Jesus Christ tells us to worship the Father. But what do we do when the Father tells us to worship the Son?

When the Father has given the Son a name above every other name so that every knee MUST bow to Him. (Phil 2:10) Will you not bow you knee to Christ?
What about when the Father is glorified when we pray to the Son? (John 14:13) Will you not also pray to Christ?

Numbers 6-

24 “The LORD bless you and keep you; 25 The LORD make His face shine upon you,(one)

25 The LORD make His face shine upon you, And be gracious to you; (two)

26 The LORD lift up His countenance upon you, And give you peace.” ’(three)

27 “So they shall put My name on the children of Israel, and I will bless them.”

Mathew 28:19. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, notice the verse says in the name (singular) not names.

2 Corinthians 13:14
14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all. Amen.

1 Corinthians 4-6
4 There are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. 5 There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. 6 And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God who works all in all.


11)11 But one and the same Spirit works all these things, distributing to each one individually as He wills.

Ephesians 4:4
4 There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called in one hope of your calling; 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism; 6 one God and Father of all,

Jude 20:21

But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, [/b]21 keep yourselves in the love of [b]God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

shdemidemi: Mathew 28:19. 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, notice the verse says in the name (singular) not names.

the word name in dat verse hit me. Eh frosbel, what is the NAME, what is the greek meaning of the word NAME and used in that context? Name not NAMES!

And I (Jesus) will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.

frosbel:


But the verse was not addressed to Jesus as the Son of MAN for the sake of argument, it was addressed to Jesus as GOD , so back to my question how can GOD have a GOD ?

Let me give you a clue : no capitalisation in the original Greek or Hebrew.

hi let me understand you, by the bolded, are you against the CONCEPT of trinity or just the word TRINITY?

Similarity in the attribute of God and the Spirit of God
Psalm 139:7-10 7 Where can I go from Your Spirit? Or where can I flee from Your presence? (Omnipresent)

1 Corinthians 2:10-11

10 But God has revealed them to us through His Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. 11 For what man knows the things of a man except the spirit of the man which is in him? Even so no one knows the things of God except the Spirit of God. 12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might know the things that have been freely given to us by God. (Omniscient)

frosbel:

3 gods.

This is NOT what the Trinity is?

The Holy Spirit and God used interchangeably and in parallelism

2 Samuel 23:2
“The Spirit of the LORD spoke by me, And His word was on my tongue. 3 The God of Israel said, The Rock of Israel spoke to me:

Acts 5:3
But Peter said, “Ananias, why has Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy Spirit [/b]and keep back part of the price of the land for yourself? 4 While it remained, was it not your own? And after it was sold, was it not in your own control? Why have you conceived this thing in your heart? You have not lied to men but to [b]God.”

Mr anony:
This is NOT what the Trinity is?

Of course, you are slightly right with what you put there. It will be very wrong to say God the father, God the son and God the Spirit(that makes it three Gods). Rather, the bible says we have one God the father, the son and the Spirit.

Try to use the scriptures to back your opinion when answering questions, so you don't end up leaning on your own understanding. You can be logically right but scripturally wrong at a time. Thank you

Acts 28:25

25 "So when they did not agree among themselves, they departed after Paul had said one word: “The Holy Spirit [/b]spoke rightly through Isaiah the prophet"......
Compare with what God said to Isaiah
Isaiah 6:8-10 Also I heard the voice of [b]the Lord(Yahweh), saying: “Whom shall I send, And who will go for Us?”


Hebrew 10:15-17

15 But the Holy Spirit [/b]also witnesses to us; for after He had said before, 16 “This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, says the LORD: I will put My laws into their hearts, and in their minds I will write them,” 17 then He adds, “Their sins and their lawless deeds I will remember no more.”

Compare to Jeremiah 31:32-33

“Behold, the days are coming, says [b]the LORD, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah— 32 not according to the covenant that I made with their fathers in the day that I took them by the hand to lead them out of the land of Egypt, My covenant which they broke, though I was a husband to them, says the LORD. 33 But this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, says the LORD: I will put My law in their minds, and write it on their hearts; and I will be their God, and they shall be My people.
