When she bears Tamunonengiofori Alawakevwenesigha-Ditonmenekevwe on her passport, she'll see whether they won't refuse her visa. angry

That's why I said it should be agreed by both parties madam. Why do children bear the man's name as their last name? Because He's the head of the Household (And this is biblical) The wife bears the name of the husband as his wife. If you're married, your name is changed from Miss (which ends with your Father's name) to Mrs (Which ends with ur hubby's name) as a change in status to bear that name of the Head now. Marriage is all about understanding and communication. If that will bring about problems, then the wife shouldn't insist on bearing her Father's name at the detriment of a Peaceful home.

God is described as being One, One what?
One True God I believe, for there is only One True God.
That doesn't conflict with the One True God being two or more persons,
and scripture does say that the Father and the Son are two persons. (posted below)



Well, they are not three gods, so they must be three persons in God.
leaving the Holy Spirit out for simplicity:
We know the Father is God and we know the Word Jesus is God.



Jesus could be referred to as Everlasting Father there because as scriptures show He is from Everlasting, and He could also be called the Father of Creation, just one example.
But because something is not known, is not reason to throw out all that is known.


Verses below show the Father and Jesus Christ being two persons.

The Word was with God, is two persons.
Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God

Pro 8:22 Jehovah possessed me from the beginning of His way, before His works of old.
Pro 8:23 I was anointed from everlasting, from the beginning, before the earth ever was.
Pro 8:30 even I was a workman at His side; and I was daily His delight, rejoicing always before Him;

Eph 3:9 and to bring to light what is the fellowship of the mystery which from eternity has been hidden in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ;

1Jn 1:2 (for the Life was revealed, and we have seen it and bear witness, and show to you the everlasting Life, who was with the Father and was revealed to us),

Joh 16:28 I came forth from the Father, and have come into the world. Again I leave the world and go to the Father.

Joh 17:5 And now Father, glorify Me with Yourself with the glory which I had with You before the world was.

I and the Father is two persons.
Joh 10:30 I and the Father are one!
Are One is One God.

Php 2:6 who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God,

1Jn 5:7 For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit, and these three are one.
brb.

Okay. Thankfully, it does to any unbiased seeker. A lot has been said/quoted on this thread as regards this, do refer to them.
LOL unbiased seeker? you are joking right.

What have been said/quoted? all i see are people picking random scriptures to justify their false conclusion of who God is.

Does the scripture teach trinity? hell no! someone reading the bible for the first time without any dogma coming in between will not see any trinity! but one God! stop lying!

that is all in his attempt to defend a doctrine he himself doesnt understand grin
LOL The more i tried understanding the trinity, the more confused i got until i painstakingly came to the realisation that the scripture does not teach it. The prophets did not teach it, Jesus did not teach it, the apostles did not teach it. What they kept saying was that God is one! one being. No mention of him being a formation of separate persons. Nothing like that LOL.

Where cometh the trinity teaching? it is nonsensical and illogical! God is one and Jesus is God. naff said.

Christianity EtcRe: TRINITARIANS, How Do You Honestly Interpret This Verse In The Bible? by An2elect2(f):
Scholar8200:
Hebrews 1:1,2 answers this,
God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 3 who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, ... Other passages like Psalm 2:11,12 ; Proverbs 30:4, Psalm 110:1 are all in the OT.
Am sorry but this does not answer the question. You say there are three persons who are co equal, co eternal in one God. And i ask where in the bible is God described this way, as a trinity?
Scholar8200:
The use of the word Father there is the same usage in Genesis 45:8 spoken by Joseph when he became prime minister or one that administered Egypt
8 So now it was not you who sent me here, but God; and He has made me a father to Pharaoh and lord of all his house and ruler over all the land of Egypt. Compare this with the rendition of the same verse in NIV
8 “So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God. He made me father to Pharaoh, lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.
So the usage of Everlasting Father as concerns Jesus Christ, relates to His Lordship.

You may want to consider the striking similarity between Genesis 41:41-43 and Daniel 7: 13,14 as regards this.
Oh my! is this how you interpret scriptures? how do you know it is the same way it was used in these passages? I read them but i didn't see any relationship btw them and Jesus being described as the everlasting Father.

I think you should not mix up something here. Trinitarianism says the Father is not the son and the son is not the Father. They title father is of course reserved, exclusively for the Father. Yea thats why He is the Father and the son holds the "sonship" title below the Father. Why then would the son be called the everlasting father? will two fathers spring up later on? It was his name. It was what it denotes. Everlasting Father! Isaiah did not say it means Lordship. He said everlasting father! why should we single this particular name out to give it another meaning?

I guess prince of peace, counsellor, wonderful, mighty God all connote something different too. Really?

It is what life will take you through. You don't have to wait per say, life makes you wait and show you what you must see when your time eventually comes.

What a hopeless life man. Sad sad you guys earn my pity.

The more virginity is hyped the more girls dig it... their is nothing like defiled bed, marriage is marriage... sex is sex as long as its great sex..

why should i even waste my time with a dummy in bed when i can get an exciting partner .. virginity cab fvcking go to hell.. I marry who ever i want and who ever makes me happy n is good in bed... simple..
OK. Am not buying your view point cos not only is it flawed on so many levels it is not at par with the scriptures: the only authority i bow to.

"virginity cab fvcking go to hell" ?? you forgot you don't believe in hell and it doesn't exist in your book. LOL

I don't know why the too much hype on virginity... Virgin or no virgin, changes nothing to the value of a woman.. woman is woman.... Buh na so u come deh preach for virginity thread sowink
LOL Marriage is honourable the bed undefiled.

The more virginity is hyped, the more abstinence from pre marital sex is encouraged, indirectly. It is all good at the end. And i agree with that.

However, that is not what makes a woman worthy or a wife material. smiley

Let me cure your ignorance. Do you realise that in Saudi Arabia, ALL citizens are officially designated as muslims? PLUS it is a CRIME punishable by DEATH for a person to convert from Islam to another religion? Now what are the chances that you would be a Christian today had you been born in Saudi Arabia?
First of all Christians are not borne out of chance or fate. They are NOT born of flesh or blood or the will of man or their geographical location but they are born of God! You don't know who a Christian is and that's why you use that term loosely. There are Christians scattered all over the world. And even so, in Arabia countries. God is not like man who makes his tent only where he would not be hurt. Am not surprised you think this way. After all what do you know?

If you had said, those playing religion, i would have jejely walked by but you ignorantly lumped them all.

Truth! Let me add, 1 Corinthians 8:6,"... The Father of Whom are all things, and we in Him; And One Lord Jesus Christ by Whom are all things, and we by Him" and 1 John 5:7," For There are three that bear record in Heaven, The Father,The Word, and The Holy Ghost: and These Three are One." and finally Hebrews 1:1,2" God Who at sundry times and divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken to us by His Son..."
It is so easy to believe that there are three persons in one God from few passages in the new testament. How then do we explain the old testament where God is described multiple times as numerically one?

Notice that no where in the old testament were we told God is three in one and even in the new testament! that passage says there are three that bear record in heaven NOT three persons that make one God!

Okay that aside we are speaking of the Father here. Was prophet Isaiah not under the unction of the Holy spirit when he said this in I saiah 9:6?


"For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is
given: and the government shall be upon his
shoulder: and his name shall be called
Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The
everlasting Father
, The Prince of Peace."

Is Jesus, the promised messiah not being referred to here as the Father? or are you saying there are two Fathers?
