Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 4:26pm On Oct 01, 2012
Ubenedictus: not at all, it is not say anything like 'and' it says 'from'. Ijawkid stole a pot of soup from ijawkid / ijawkid stole a pencil from ijawkid like yahweh rained down fire...from yahweh. Tell me how that tally.

no! U stole a pencil and a pot of soup from urself? How can that b d same person?

did u also see that among d 3 wu came to abraham in d likeness of men one of them remained and the scriptures say he is yahweh?

very sweet excuse, so angels also use the divine name and can go about calling themselves yahweh?
Ijawkid ur dodging is puting u in serious trouble.
Did u read d verse I wrote down there??

No u didn't...

Read it....


And ofcus when Yahweh used angelic agents it always sounded like it was Yahweh himself speaking.....

Why??

Because no one has seen Yahweh...

So all those who thought they saw Yahweh,saw his angels....
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 4:23pm On Oct 01, 2012
Ubenedictus: hahaha phil 2:6

yet Jesus is equal to the father in time, they both existed before time was created and will exist forever. Infact time was created thru christ.

that cant be said of Jesus because there is No BEFORE in eternity.
aha and yet im equal to them in dignity

sorry friend he is equal in dignity.

u forgot to shown me where u got the idea that the angel were begotten, please do so.
...

No way....

Jesus was begotten ,meaning Yahweh existed b4 Him.....

Except u want to change d word ""begot""....

If not Jesus won't call his mate or his equal ""My GOD""

Jesus won't wait for his equal to give Him power...

Yahweh is more powerfull than Jesus....

Yahweh is all-knowing,Jesus isn't...

They are not and never equal.....

U get it??

And when I say angels were begotten it means they are all sons of God ......

Both Jesus and the angels are spirit sons of God...

Am I lieing??.....

And your clinging too much with this diginity stuff...

I wanna hear u tell me that Jesus is equal with his dad in terms of power and knowledge ,....

Can u try that??
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 4:18pm On Oct 01, 2012
Ubenedictus: no, the angel never and donot posses the "fullness of the deity".
Lol...

And what do u understand by the word fullness of deity.....??

Jesus is a morning star, the same with angels ...

All subordinates of Yahweh

they all share the same Father and God....

They are all divine.....
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 3:30pm On Oct 01, 2012
@ubenidictus....

Are the rest angels equals with Jesus??

Start answering.......
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 3:27pm On Oct 01, 2012
Ubenedictus: because been begotten makes u posses the same nature as the begetter thus making u equal in dignity. My parents begot me and i am equal to them in dignity. And in that sense by my human nature i am equal in dignity to all humans.

this is because u have failed to understand that which u read
that mean u are less human than ur father because he begot u. It seem u are trying to say Christ is less God than his father becos he was begotter. Apply that stupid logic to urself and i will conclude that u are an animal because anything less than human falls into d animal category.

are u also going to tell me that the angels posses the fullness of the deity?

my bible say Jesus is the only begotten and it also lets me know in the book of hebrew chapter 1 that no angel was begetten. All the angels were CREATED by God thru his only begotten son Jesus christ.
Ijawkid have u started to make ur own bible? the bible clearly shows us that d angels arent begotten. Give me scripture that support u, where do u base ur error?
hope u didnt close ur eyes becos 2 post ago in my 2nd sentence, i answered that question.
Ofcus Christ is less than his Father...

Abi u no know??

Hundreds of scriptures show that.....

If we are less than Jesus then Jesus is less than Yahweh.....

Hope u get it??

Your trying to make equal with his Father can't work because the bible doesn't support it.......

And u are not equal to your parents in age...are u??

They existed b4 u did....did u exist b4 ur parents??

Answer....

Your parents are ahead of u and greater than you in life........

Yahweh begot Jesus and so Jesus in no way is equal to his begetter......

No way......
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 3:23pm On Oct 01, 2012
Ubenedictus: hahaha, i have done my share of bible recitals, i took a liking for d shema, it went futher, u must teach it 2 ur children and put it on ur door post etc, a great passage, i dont need to recite it again, it is crytal clear and i understand it God is one. Yahweh is one. It doesnt contradict d fact that yahweh revealed himself in more than one person.
The verse in question is saying yahweh rain fire from yahweh, can u hear and see that. Can u say "ubenedictus ...(performed an action)...from ubenedictus? Like saying "ijawkid stole a pot of soup from ijawkid". Unless there a 2 ijawkids then is it impossible for ijawkid to steal from ijawkid in d strict sense. Unless 2 person answer yahweh then it is illogical for yahweh to rain down fire from yahweh.
Peace
Its like saying ijawkid stole a pot of soup and ijawkid stole a pencil.......

I am still the same person who stole a pot of soup and then some ones pencil....

Look @ the verse...
.........
and Jehovah hath rained upon Sodom and
upon
Gomorrah brimstone and fire from
Jehovah,
from the heavens;

The fire ,brimstone all came forth from the Yahweh who resides in the heaven.....from the same person...


Not one person appearing in different forms...

Besides Yahweh has got angels who can go down to the earth for him....
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 2:45pm On Oct 01, 2012
Ubenedictus: all humans are equal in dignity whether slave or master.
my friend, as man Jesus was like us, the same human nature, the same equal human dignity. He is only greater than us in his divine nature because he was also God "the fulnes of the deity dwelt in him" that is how christ is infinitely greater than us. The father is the source/origin of the divinity, he beget Jesus christ from all eternity, so all the son has comes from the father and the father is the head, has monachia over the son. That is it, the father is head over the son, and since they have the same nature (GOD begets GOD) Jesus has the same dignity of nature. My dad is d head of my mum and my mum is equal in dignity to my dad. I am also equal to my dad in dignity cos i have d same human nature, im not an animal. This is what st paul said in corithians, "the head of the woman is man and the head of christ is God", just as man and woman are equal in dignity so is d fada and Christ.
It is there in black and white, u have closed your eyes from seeing and ur mind from understanding.
Peace
If God begets God, how can a begotten God be equal to his begetter??

How??



Do u hear yourself....??



Its written all over the bible...

Yahweh is greater than Jesus.......Yahweh is the God of Jesus....

No amount of scripture twisting can change that.......


Yahweh begot Yeshua and for that singular reason Yehshua is less than his Father...

And a million times I've said that Jesus and all the angels in heaven are of the same nature with the Father...they are all divine ,and heavenly...

And they were all begotten by the Father....
But Yahweh is the God and Father of them all..

If u can understand this simple points u'll be free.....

Yahweh has no equals....he is the almighty...the almighty has no equals....

And I have asked u,if we humans are equal with Jesus...

You haven't answered.... .....
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 2:36pm On Oct 01, 2012
Ubenedictus: "yahweh made it rain fire an brimestone on sodom and gomorrah from yahweh"
that is very clear "yahweh rained fire...from yahweh" u are trying to dodge. Tell me how come there are two persons answering yahweh in that passage.
How does this verse show there are 2 Yahwehs??

Genesis 19:24..

##World English Bible
Then Yahweh rained on Sodom and on
Gomorrah sulfur and fire from Yahweh out of
the sky.
.........
##Young's Literal Translation
and Jehovah hath rained upon Sodom and upon
Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Jehovah,
from the heavens;


If the trinity is not written all over your body why would u pick up gensis 19:24 to think that there are 2 Yahwehs...


That clear verse is talking about one and d same person...and that person is Yahweh......

Yahweh is one not 2.......

Stop cherry picking verses that don't support the pagan dogmata.....stop twisting verses to support your stance...

Both the brimstone,fire and sulphur came forth from the heavens where Yahweh resides....

Ubenidictus u surprise me a lot...

Oya start reciting deuteronomy 6:4 and mark 12:29 and let it sink in your head.....

##....Aramaic Bible in Plain English (©2010)
Yeshua said to him, “The first of all the
commandments: 'Hear Israel, THE LORD
JEHOVAH your God, THE LORD JEHOVAH,
he is One.' “...

Keep reciting until u get over the trinity.....

Thank u sir.....
Christianity EtcRe: Why Doesn’t The Trinity Have Three Thrones In Heaven? by ijawkid(m): 1:22pm On Oct 01, 2012
I have written down this same exact points before...,but trinitarians just close there eyes to it...

I have always asked where is the holy spirit in that heavenly picture??

Yahweh sits on his majestic throne,Jesus is brought before Him and is given the priviledge to sit @ Yahwehs right Hand there on his(Yahwehs) throne....

Where is the holy spirit??

A freind of mine told me that the reason why the holy spirit isn't in that picture was because when Jesus ascended to the heavens,the holy spirit was sent down to the earth as the helper....and so the heavens remained devoid of the Holy spirit...

And I was like, WHAT!!!!!!!.....are you kidding me.....

I mean the trinity can't be akin to the scriptures from genesis to revelation.....

@ubenidictus......genesis didn't mention 2 Yahwehs...the trinity wine u've been drinking is what is dulling you......

If after quoting deuteronomy your still arguing that there are 3 Yahwehs ,then u need to do sometin about your bible knowledge.....

Genesis says Yahweh made it rain fire and sulphur from heaven.....

What else do u not understand??
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 10:37am On Oct 01, 2012
Ubenedictus: Have u finished? hahaha, 1 God in 3 persons so i believe, u are trying to dodge the fact that genesis mentions 2 persons answering d name yahweh "and yahweh rained down fire and brimestone of sodom and gomorrah from yahweh in heaven". Deal with it.

u have refused to give u nonspurious meaning to the fact that two persons were identified as yahweh.

gen 18:22 "so d men turned from there and abraham still stood before yahweh"
gen18:33"and yahweh went his way wen he had finish speaking to abraham and abraham went to his place". Haha, go on and argue, if yahweh was on earth in d form of a man.
gen 18:33, the epiphanies of the old testament shows us that yahweh was on earth in d form of a man.

that is the shema, "shema o israel", it doesnt contradict my position either, one God in 3 persons.


u are d person contradicting scripture and have fail to explain how come two person have d name yahweh in gen19:24
im not a jew im a christian, and i certainly remember that the jews tried to stone Jesus for calling himself d begotten of God because by that title they said "he claimed equality with God".

det6:4 doesnt contradict me

hahaha, u added "in every way". Have u started writting ur own bible?

my mum is subject to my dad accding to scriptures yet they posses equal dignity. A slave isnt greater than d master and yet that doesnt master greater that human. He and his slave has equal dignity becos they posses d same nature, of men born of women none is greater than john, that doesnt make john more than human. He is still equal in dignity to others. And yes the father has d "monachia" in the trinity so that everyone is 'subject' to him and doesnt make him more of a God than christ Jesus.

i didnt water down anything, i simply showed u how both can posses equal dignity and yet the father still has d 'monachia' or leadership.
U've been hanging too much on mum and dad analogy....

Try using Jesus and us(men) to explain equality...

Are we and Jesus equal??

Please answer.....

Despite the fact that we are brothers with Jesus simply because we share d same Father and God with Him,does that make us equal??

I'll tell you one thing that the trinity won't let u see...

Yahweh and Jesus are not equal...

Its all over the scriptures....and if u can't see it,then what more can a man do??....

There is nothing Jesus has that he didn't get from the Father...

Is it authority??

Is it power??

Is it life??

Is it rulership??

Name it.............

Jesus can't and will never be equal to the 1 person who gave Him all he has....

A slave cannot be equal to his master...

Jesus is not equal with God.....we(men) are not equal with Jesus......

The chain goes on and on....

The minute u claim Jesus is equal with God,be ready to agree that man is equal with Jesus.....

Yahweh is the Father and God of Jesus and all of us.......

I'll quote 1 corinthians 15:24-28 again and again.....

That verse talks about the end.....

When Yahweh will show that he is over everybody......

He will show trinitarians that he has no rival,no equals......he will show many that he aint co-equal with anybody,not even His son....

Thank you.....

Enigma: To make things easier, here a few simple questions of basic comprehension in relation to the passage.

1. Who is "the God of the spirit of the prophets" who sent his angel?

2. Whos is the person called "the Alpha & Omega"?

3. Who is the person called "the First and the Last"?

4. Who is the person called "the Beginning and the End"?

5. Who is the person that sent His angel to give the testimony for the churches?



(There are many more questions e.g. which testimony and what is the testimony etc etc etc but we don't even need to go that far)

Who is that almighty God that gave Jesus the revelations ,that Jesus gave to an angel,that the angel gave to john...??

Christianity EtcRe: How Do Feel When You Speak/ Here Others Speak In Tongues? by ijawkid(m): 8:28am On Sep 30, 2012
uhonmora: It was also written that when the believers receive the holy spirit, they shall cast out devils.

Of all those nigerian christians who have spoken in tongues, how many of them have cast out devils?

From my understanding, the tongues on the day of pentecost (which were languages of other nations) were a fulfillment of the holyspirit coming upon the jews (to wow the sinners who heard and enable them repent). The second episode of this was in the house of cornelius which was yet again, a sign that the holyspirit had come upon the gentiles (to wow the jews who heard and to give them the assurance that Christ indeed had poured out his spirit on all flesh). Which meant that God had fulfilled his promise by pouring his spirit on both jews and gentiles.

The kind of tongues you see nowadays especially in nigerian churches are very sensual and the way it's practiced leaves many questions unanswered. After water baptism, they tell you to start speaking in tongues, those who utter a few random, incoherent words are publicly declared to have receive the holy ghost while those who cannot speak in tongues are separated for special prayers.

If after the prayers, you say a few rubbish words, you join the league of holyghost recipients. If you still haven't spoken in tongues, the pastors begin to shake your head, praying and begging you to say a few nonsense. If your case is hopeless, you are looked down upon as one who is a sinner or even one who possesses a bad spirit.

These are the things that go on in many of our pentecostal churches. We have really lost it.

As for praying in tongues while in church,
Paul's instructions on how christians should conduct themselves in the churches were very clear.

Speak in tongues (or prophecies) one at a time, or at most three, AND LET THERE BE AN INTERPRETER, otherwise be silent. But today, you see pastors instructing the congregation to pray in tongues all at the same time..causing so much confusion....which according to paul is akin to madness in the eyes of an unbeliever who suddenly walks into the church.
Fantastic!!!!!

You said it all bro......

My problem is that this same persons who claim to speak in tongues are the same exact persons who engage in examination malpractice,fornicate like never before,embessle government funds,reap there followers off there belongings,materialistic etc...

Is the holy spirit that unholy to still be enabling these persons speak in tongues??

Let christians today really read there bibles and focus on the more importnant things....
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 6:46am On Sep 30, 2012
Ayomivic: Also, Holy Spirit is greater than human being because he comes from God and he was given power to rule over Millions of Christians in the world.That makes him God too.

Many people refused to accept Holy Spirit as God because they did not see where it written in Bible that he is God.Some says Holy Spirit is power of God. I want us to know that there are mysteries about the Holy Spirit. If we remember, it came upon Jesus as dove, he decended on disciples as tongues of fire, that shows it can come in any form.

God the father is only one God that has supreme power over the earth and heaven. He was the one that created every things on earth and in heave.Human being is gods over all other creature on earth,Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit are gods over human being,God the father father is creator of all and one God we all worship.

Finally, i believed that all Christians knows that God is one.This is the first of the comandment and the biggest of all comandment.Our spirit is our witness that God is one even though ,we believed in Holy Trinity.
My brother if you believe this you just wrote..

""God the father is only one God that has
supreme power over the earth and heaven. He
was the one that created every things on
earth and in heave.Human being is gods over all
other creature on earth,Jesus Christ and Holy
Spirit are gods over human being,God the
father father is creator of all and one God we
all worship"" ....

Then its time to stop using that word trinity...

If u believe the Father is the one and only true God and also God over Jesus then you have one way or the other discarded the trinity dogma that says clearly that Jesus and the Father are equal....

I'm happy @ least you know this truth.....

Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 3:13am On Sep 30, 2012
Ubenedictus: this is the ijawkid special question. The problem with this question is that the name Yahweh is not exclusive to the father, gen 19:24 show two distinct persons called Yahweh it says "then Yahweh rained on sodom and Gomorrah brimstone and fire from Yahweh in heaven". Aha! Two distinct persons are identified as Yahweh is that passage so my question is which of the persons called yahweh in that passage are u refering to? are u asking abt the Yahweh in the form of man on earthhuh or the other raining brimstonehuh Yahweh is not exclusive of d fada so reconstruct ur sentence.

and my answer to the well constructed question below is that it depends on your definition of "greater". Your understanding of my answer also depends on your understanding of that passage that say "he took the form of a slave" and another that says "he was made lower than the angels", in this sense, that christ lived among us with our limited and inferior nature the words of christ hold true when he says "the fada is greater than i.
Peace
Is there any other definition of greater than??

Please if u've got better scriptures bring them out......

Deuteronomy 6:4 tells u how many Yahweh we have....so don't run around or quote genesis 19:24 out of context....

If the trinity dogma veil would let you know Yahweh isn't distinct from himself u wouldn't quote that verse and read spurious meanings into it....

Genesis says it was Yahweh who made it rain down fire and sulphur on sodom and gomorrah....

Where else was Yahweh if not in heaven??...

Abi u carry am come earth??.....

Yahweh rained down sulphur and fire on sodom.....

There has never been a time Yahweh left his lofty position.....

Please read deuteronomy 6:4 and stick to it...

##World English Bible
Hear, Israel: Yahweh is our God; Yahweh is
one:
.......
##Young's Literal Translation
Hear, O Israel, Jehovah our God is one
Jehovah;


We have only one Yahweh......

Yahweh or Jehovah is exclusive to only Yahweh..the one and only true God..

Don't come here speading this heresy of Yahweh been the surname of a triune Godhead...
That is against the scriptures......

No Jew would ever agree with u...not even Jesus...

Read deuteronomy 6:4 until u learn to let the bible answer your questions and not a pagan trinity....

And as regards The Father greater than Jesus....that is a fact that the bible also lucidly points out...

The father is greater than Jesus in every way....

After Jesus's ascension into heaven the Father continued to be greater and will be greater for all eternity...

It seems since we've been quoting 1 corinthians 15:24-28 you've been closing your eyes.......

Jesus will be subject to the Father for all eternity....

You can add 1 corinthians 11:3 if you want to....

How u want to water down the word ""Greater"" is what is getting me surprised...
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 11:17pm On Sep 29, 2012
Goshen360: I have shown Ijawkid and truthislight where the Bible calls the Holy Spirit God but they discarded the scripture that they don't agree with it. It was strange to me anyway but they are my good brothers, lolz. Truthislight and Frosbel, (I don't know and am not sure the position of Ijawkid); believes the Holy Spirit is a force or power. This is totally strange to the scripture. A force doesn't speak, doesn't have mind etc but the bible makes it clear that the Holy Spirit is NOT a force or power but a being that speak etc. Let every man sit to study the bible with all humility and open mind to be taught by the Holy Spirit.
U provided just 1 verse to support your stance that the holy spirit is God and it was indeed an obscure one....we were waiting to see like over 50 scriptures that explicitly says the holy spirit is God or a God....

Not withstanding the trinity has made many say these 3 gods are co-equal and the same...

And that the bible never agrees with...the bible totally does not agree with that concept....

And u know that......

Ayomivic just showed us the reason why Jesus was called a mighty God...

Did u read up the reason he gave??
Christianity EtcRe: The Truth About The Holy Trinity. by ijawkid(m): 11:11pm On Sep 29, 2012
Goshen360: grin grin grin

I can understand. I think I agree with you on the above highlight. I will follow after. That word is NEVER in the bible, why use or introduce it to explain the concept of God. We can find a word that appears in the bible like "Godhead" etc rather than "Trinity" but we should NOT also discard the bible truth of the Father being called God, Jesus being called God and the Holy Spirit being called God just because the word "Trinity" is used to explain the concept of God. This is the crusade we should engage ourselves.
At my bro goshen......

I just have one question for u that should settle us....

Is Yahweh greater than Jesus??

I know we all know God is nobody's name...

But we know from Jesus that there is only 1 true God when it comes to the aspect of whom exclusive devotion should be given to...

I repeat the question...

Is Yahweh the God and Father of Jesus and also greater than Jesus??
Christianity EtcRe: Who Is Jesus Christ? by ijawkid(m): 10:37pm On Sep 29, 2012
flourishG: It very clear that you lack Scriptural credibility. You only pick what suits your sensual interpretation and overlook the other side of the word. The word of God is a two-edged sword. Allow the bible to interpret itself. Since you failed to answer a simple question above, I do not consider it wise to discuss with you further else it will be waste of time knowing from all your previous posts that you belong to the cult of JW. You can continue this thread anytime you answer correctly to the above questions. You can as well take a short vacation and do a little study of Matthew to John and come back to answer the simple question. You will be following blindly if you don't even know the Jesus of the Bible. They that KNOW their God shall be strong and do exploit.
You just called me a cultist...

Is that how to refer to a brother??...

I gave you a perfect answer to your question and u label me a cultist....that I belong to a cult....

So u mean acknowledging Yahweh as the Father and God of Jesus Christ has now made JW's cultists or a cult??

If Jesus isn't the son of God then who is He??

Is he God of son??

Or is Yahweh the son of Jesus Christ??

Oya tell us what those gospels say.....and let's see......


You talked about exploits...

What exploits have those who believe in the trinity and its instigators done??

Other than use force to propagate this heretic pagan dogma....

Bring out your points and let's discuss instead of calling me a cultist....

Ayomivic: THE TRUTH ABOUT HOLY TRINITY

Christianity is a unique religion in the world. What make it unique is that, you can't read the Bibe as you are reading novel or others sacred books.Jesus said "unto you it has given to know the mysteries of kingdom of God but to others in parables that seeing they might not see and hearing they might not understand" Luke 8:10

In John 14:26 Jesus said "But the comforter,which is the Holy Gost,whom the father would send in my name,he shall teach you all things and bring all things into your remembrance whatsoever i have said unto you"
This Holy Spirit is what the athiest and other religions lack that make them say the 'Bible is full of contradictions' but its painful to see that some called Christians also are not different to athiests and the people of other religions.They read Bible without the guide of Holy spirit.

Concerning the Holy Trinity,if your believe is that God the father was incarnated and he was Jesus that died for sins of people. My friend, you are wrong. In many verses of Bible, it shows clearly ,that God the father is different to our Lord Jesus Christ. If God the father is thesame with Jesus ,who was the one Jesus refers to as father that is in heaven? Are we saying Jesus was praying to himself?

If you say Jesus is not God,you are wrong because you can't deny Isaiah 9:6 that called Jesus mighty God.

"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,Councellor,The mighty God,The everlasting father,The prince of peace"

If Jesus was called God in Bible why did you say he is not God?Did you think of this verse to be mistaken?Does that mean Jesus created heaven and earth ,What happened?

The controvery over the issue of Jesus been God or not did not start today.When Jesus was alive,they challenged him to his face in one of his conversation with Jews. What answer did Jesus give to them that challenged him? Let read

". . . .I and my father are one.Then the Jew took up the stones again to stone him. Jesus answered them, many good works have i shewed you fron my father;for which of those works do you stone me? The Jews answered him, saying, for the good works we stone thee not but for blasphemy; and because that thou being a man makest theself God. Jesus answered them, is it not in written in your law, i said you are gods?"(John 10:30-34)
The verse Jesus quotes here, is also in Psalm 82:6

"I have said, you are gods and all of you are children of the most High "

In that verse, God called human being gods. Does that mean human being created Heaven and Earth?No, but why did God called human being gods?The book of Genesis said
God created man in his image and he gave them power over every other things he created.This can be found In Genesis 1;27-28

". . So God created man in his own image,in the image of of God created he him,male and female created he them.And God blessed them,and God said unto them be fruitful,and mutiply,and replenish the earth and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth."

If we understand this to be the reason God calls us gods why are we saying that Jesus Christ and Holy Spirit are not God?

Jesus, in one of his conversation with Jews, he said he had being before Abraham.
"Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day,and he saw it and was glad.Then said the Jews unto him,thou are not yet fifty years old,and hast thou seen Abraham?Jesus said verily,verily i say unto you before Abraham was, Iam.(John 8:56-58)"
Also, in the book of luke 20:41-44 Jesus said this
" And he said unto them,How say they that Christ is David's son?And David himself saith in the book of psalms.The Lord said unto my Lord,sit thou on my right hand till i make your thine enemies the footstool.If David therefor calleth him Lord,how is he then is son"

In the two verses above, Jesus shows that he had been in existence before Abraham and David and we all know the years difference between Jesus and these two people. Where was Jesus when Abraham was on earth? It is sure Jesus had not been born before Abraham.The verse above shows where Jesus was."My Lord said to my Lord" two Lord in this statement.The first Lord is God the father and the second Lord is Jesus Christ.This shows that Jesus is in heaven with God.This is where the word 'incarnation' emerged. Jesus ,then take a human form and came from heaven to earth not that God the father came to earth in human form.

Further more,the book of Daniel tells us how Jesus was ordain.
"I saw in the night visions, and behold, one like th Son of man came to the Ancient of days and they brought him near before him.And there was given him dominion and glory and a kingdom, that all people,nations, and language,should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominnion which shall never pass away,and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.Daniel 7:13-14"

The 'Ancient of days' in the above verses was God the father and 'One like son of man' was Our Lord Jesus Christ. Remember, Jesus testified to above verses when he said "all power is given unto me in heaven and in earth"Math 28:18

Reason Jesus is God is that of ruling power that was given unto him over the earth and heaven and also,Jesus is not of this earth and the one that comes from above is greater than human being.As human being who is image of God greater than other creature on earth.
I'm quoting ur words....

1...""Reason Jesus is God is that of ruling power that was given unto him over the earth and heaven ""

2."".Concerning the Holy Trinity,if your believe is that God the father was incarnated and he was Jesus that died for sins of people. My friend, you are wrong. In many verses of Bible, it shows clearly ,that God the father is different to our Lord Jesus Christ. If God the father is thesame with Jesus ,who was the one Jesus refers to as father that is in heaven? Are we saying Jesus was praying to himself?""

I'll have to applaud you for having this understanding....

Some trinitarians wiLl still argue with you o....

Some will come here and say Jesus infact is the Father....

But u,u got good spiritual perception....

You gave the exact reason why Jesus is called a mighty God in isaiah 9:6....

You are really learning d bible.....
