Aemmyjah: He is not bothered about what anyone says as long as they're not insisting he obey the same rules with them. So anybody is OK no matter their religion except JWs because we insist that once you're not obedient to our line of thought you can't be a worshiper of our God. |

oteneaaron: To me, where the deceit comes in on this issue is the attempt to mixup events and blur timelines. The original Matthew Gospel was written in Aramaic (losely referred to as Hebrew) in the 1st Century AD. Shortly after, Greek translations appeared with the earliest dating to the 1st Century and all these Greek translations contained the Trinitarian formula in their reproduction of Matthew 28:19 The Shem-Tob's Hebrew Matthew Gospel which did not contain the Trinitarian formula and which is the cornerstone of your argument was written in the 14th Century, more than 1200 years after the original Matthew Gospel and the early Greek translations. The fact that it is written in Hebrew does not erode the huge gap between it and the original that it purports to reproduce which leave ample room for errors. How can a reproduction with such wide gap in years be expected to be taken as closer to the original than the translations and reproductions that appeared only decades after the original? I have seen some people falsely try to date Shem-Tob's Hebrew Matthew Gospel to the period of the original Matthew Gospel (which was written in Aramaic with the Aramaic language being labeled as Hebrew) and then allude to it being a more exact version of the original Matthew Gospel on the basis of language, particularly when it is the oldest existing Hebrew version of the Matthew Gospel. Mind you, while Aramaic and Hebrew belong to the same Linguistic classification of Northwest Semitic languages, the two are not exactly the same language. Therefore Shem-Tob's Hebrew Matthew Gospel is also a translation, and a translation made more than 1200 years after the original Gospel was written. Also, note that Shem-Tob's Hebrew Matthew Gospel was first discovered included in a 14th-century work Eben Boḥan (The Touchstone) which is an anti-Christian treatise written by a Spanish Jewish Rabbi Shem-Tov ben Isaac ben Shaprut. In the book the Rabbi argued against the fact that Jesus is God, which is essentially an argument against Trinity. So his inclusion of a version of Matthew Gospel that does not contain elements of Trinitarian doctrine is not strange based on his objectives. Secondly, baptisms in the early Church were done in the name of Jesus as exemplified by several verses in the Book of Acts of the Apostles such as Acts 2:38. However around the 2nd to 3rd Century, the Catholic Church changed their baptismal formula to align with Trinitarian doctrine. Thus baptisms were now conducted in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost. This was the issue referred to in the Catholic Encyclopedia and not any alteration of Matthew 28:19 or any Bible verse. I presume you are not a Christian, however understanding the difference between changing a religious procedure and altering a Bible verse shouldn't be difficult.

oteneaaron: I knew this way back 2020 when I was active on the Beorean Pickets Forum owned by Exjw Eric Wilson. It's so funny how the NWT omits and alters some verses because it doesn't appear in some manuscripts but take this as an exception 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Bart Erhmans "THE ORTHODOX CORRUPTION OF SCRIPTURE" has a lot to say about how Christian Scribes had to alter several verses to preserve Orthodoxy. Especially when it has to do with "higher christology". 1 Like |

oteneaaron: No Trinity existed before Nicea as early as the 2nd century. We have info from Apostolic father's like Tertulian; [/b]First, he strongly emphasizes that these(Father, Son& Holy Spirit) are truly three; none of the three is identical to any other. They are “undivided” in the sense that the Father, in sharing some of his matter, never loses any; rather, that matter comes to simultaneously compose more than one being. The Father is one entity, the Son is a second, and the Spirit is a third. Nor are they parts of any whole; the latter two simply share some of the Father’s divine stuff.[b] The main issue at the Council of Nicea was the [/b]ARIAN CONTROVERSY[b] The issue wether the father and the son were of the same [/b] SUBSTANCE[b] |

Kobojunkiee: It's not hearsay. It's a well known fact in both Evangelical and academic circles among scholars of the New Testament. You can register a free course on TEXTUAL CRITICISM online from any accredited Seminary and you'll even discover more than this. This is just the to of the iceberg. |

OgaNightmare:Lol he's claiming that he thinks critically and that's why he believes in an infinite mind, atheist claim the same thing too and conclude on something else, I claim the same thing too and conclude that there's must be a mastermind mind behind the universe..... So which of us is the real critical thinker, or are we all correct? I know I have sent your brain on an errand now |
Re: Was Matthew 28 VS 19 Altered By The Catholic Church? by MaxInDHouse(m): 12:56pm On Dec 14, 2023 |
OgaNightmare:CRITICAL THINKING! It simply means you questioning your beliefs so what stops you from asking why different beliefs if it's just one God? Or that doesn't sound CRITICAL enough to you? |
Re: Was Matthew 28 VS 19 Altered By The Catholic Church? by OgaNightmare(m): 2:45pm On Dec 14, 2023 |
cornelboy: Critical thinking involves skillfull conceptualization, evaluating and analysing information gathered from, or generated by, observation. Otennaranon I guess is a Pantheist and his own definition of "God" is different from that of a regular church goer. And you said atheist claim to think critically but don't believe in an "infinite mind" as if you got any good case against atheism when your cheap "doctrines can't even hold up to scrutiny. The infinite mind you're talking about is a bloodthirsty psycho worshipped by the ancient Hebrews. His exploits are already recorded in your Old Testament.....which I don't think you even spend time to look into it |
Re: Was Matthew 28 VS 19 Altered By The Catholic Church? by OgaNightmare(m): 2:54pm On Dec 14, 2023 |
MaxInDHouse: Nope You already started with a conclusion that there's just "One God" which is indeed a logical fallacy of begging the question, because the premise already assumes the truth of the conclusion. |

OgaNightmare: With your so called CRITICAL THINKING why not prove to all religionist claiming they believe in one God that it's not the same God? CRITICAL THINKING SKILLS is not just about arguing hopelessly and fruitlessly you criticize something hopefully to get a better understanding that will help everyone around you. So are you of the opinion that everyone around you are worshiping the same God or you believe the Gods are numerous? Prove your thinking skill is superb by presenting a unique conclusion that shows wisdom! 1 Like |

OgaNightmare: So you believe the Bible God is a monster. That sounds critical enough but do you know a better God that we can place side by side with the God of Israel? You can't condemn something when you've not been able to present a better offer. The God of Israel has made a promise and He has fulfilled it today so tell me the name of your own God and how better your God is when compare to the Bible God! 2 Likes 1 Share |
