The father did no wrong. You're not the one paying the fees that's why.

Children of nowadays are not serious with education. Go to the notice board across the country and see their results. Especially the female ones.

SEX has become the definition of civilization. They want to be in Dubai. Messing up with lecturers old enough to be their grandfather.

Just because the father is not happy with his second probation he then took his life? Who loses? Perhaps, he's not his only child.

Some parents are afraid of talking to their children so the children won't be hurt. Has suicide solved his problems?

Call a spade a spade. When you break the law government jail you for corrections. People still serve the terms without committing suicide.
Well,I pay school fees too @bolded.
I'm not saying the father should not have chastised him but there is a way you can keep repeating the same thing that a child could become discouraged rather than motivated.It takes wisdom to know how.

Now, I hope the father is satisfied.
It takes wisdom to correct and chastise a child if he is not doing well,not just harsh words.
Parents should never compare children.

Perhaps I wasn't clear enough. Let's put it this way. Is the father greater than the son?
Is the father greater than the Holy Spirit?
The Father is greater than the Son because the Son came forth from the Father.
The Son however is of the SAME SPIRIT as the Father.

Sometimes when you guys bring this quotation, I wonder if you read the Bible deeply or you only focus on parts that support what you have been taught.
The same verse chapter you quoted, kindly read the verse before if
My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all no one can snatch them out of my Father's hand.

If the father is greater than All, how can trinity still exist maintaining coequality and coeternity......

Or is father = the father, the son and the Holy Spirit?

How do you equally explain John 17:20-22?
My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— John 17:20-22

The scripture you put up above says the SAME things as I said.Look at the bolded.Jesus said,the Father is in Me and I in Him...The same Spirit!

The problem with you guys is that you keep trying to reason God with your mind.He's BIGGER than your mind!You keep looking at figure '3'.God is one.However,He expresses Himself in ways that are mysterious to man.Yes,He's big like that.

Look at the scripture below;
Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.John 14:10
Look at the bold.Jesus said the Father that dwells in me.Who is that Father?Here Jesus speaks of the Holy Spirit.
To your question, God is the Father,Son and Holy Spirit.His expression at different points in time can be the Father,Son or Holy Spirit.
That's His Greatness!

he did said that

now that a father and son relationship.


the middle east man (Jesus) Neva claim he's equal to the jew God(Jehovah) that will be blasphemy
Nah,why didn't any prophet eg Moses say God (Father) and I are one?


None of them could say it actually.They know it's meaning.It is beyond just a relationship.

lol I don't know because I don't belive a middle east man die
for me a Nigerian ,it seems not right at all but let's pretend that I believe
let go through the Bible john I belive have ur answer.


john 14 :28 "ye have heard how I said unto you I go away,
and come again unto you
if ye loved me you could rejoiced because I said I go unto
the father for my father is greater than I am( KJV)


I think am right Jesus neva belive in the Trinity
Okay,He said that.He also said,,[b]'I and My Father are One'.[/b]John 10:30
How do you explain the statement above?
Christianity EtcRe: Did Jesus Believe In A Trinity By Saying God Is THAT ONE Who Sent Him? John 8:42 by thorpido(m): 3:16pm On Apr 10, 2018
Jesse01:
I don't think Jesus believe in the Trinity if he did, he won't have made this statement,

the father is greater than the son

son was sent (didn't come to earth on is own will)

son do the will of the father and
and not his own will.

since the Trinity belive in equals power(none is greater than the other)
Jesu won't have make those above statement, but Jesus knew
that some one is greater than him.

now back to ur question do Jesus belive in Trinity, I don't known ( not a Christian)
but frm the Bible verse I belive Jesus neva belive in the Trinity.
You are NOT a Christian yet you confidently stand on a position that requires having the Author illuminate you with divine understanding?smh

You know what,you really don't know as your statement in bold says.

I will give you a list of Bibles written by Trinitarians so you can see the confusion among them. Read them and seek answers to why some texts are missing in most versions.

The key words in all the translations are three....bear witness and ......are one.
The Father,the Son and the Holy Spirit and the three.The bible also says they are ONE.

The so-called anti-trinitians and false witnesses never see that they are one,One God.

Why don't you just send to me by email?It's easy.

What do you mean by this comment? That is what the church is for. The Church should have a library for research. A library where not just books for sale are deposited but books for intense research. What church do you represent?
You know in the law court,there are those who come to bear witness to a case and they tender proofs whereas there are others who only come to deny what others have stated but when you ask them for proof they go round in circles.

I do not have books where it is proven that the scriptures in the bible were not in the original manuscripts. You will do well to provide me copies of them.

Remember,a false witness denies but doesn't have proof.

God is not a mystery. The Bible said that Jesus came to the earth to make God known. If he is still a mystery then Jesus did not accomplish his will. John 17:3 Jesus said that our salvation and living forever depends on knowing Jehovah and Jesus who was sent.

If God is still a mystery to us, then how can we be saved when our salvation depends on knowing him?
You are using a spurious Bible version. "God" was manifest in the flesh is not found in the Greek manuscript. That version was written by heretics who propound ideas of men to shadow the truth.

But it is clearly stated that he (the son) was GIVEN the life that is in God. In turn, he died so that we would have life.

Most of Jesus statements are cherrypicked by Trinitarians. He never gave any clear or open speech on the Trinity. John 20:17 Jesus told you and I who our God is. Do you believe Jesus?
How come you choose to deny what He clearly said?
He said My Father sent Me.............but he also said the life of the Father,I have.It's a mystery beyond religion or human science and that is why some have said they do not believe.

The bible calls it........the geat mystery of godliness,God was manifest in the flesh.1Tim.3:16
