Re: Trinity – What is it?
Hi Jac, Jac wrote: With that in mind, the questions you posed are easily answered: 1. Are the Father, Son and Holy spirit coequal? Yes. Coequal and coeternal. 2. Did Jesus the 'man' have free will? Yes. I'd say that Jesus is the only man since Adam who had free will in the truest sense of the word. ...

Re: Trinity – What is it?
Jac, I was trying to find a common ground where we could agree. I think it would be best if you could state just what the Trinity is. Do you follow the Westminster Confession or would some other creed work better? The Westminster Confession of Faith Chapter II Of God, and of the Holy Trinity I. Ther...

Re: Trinity – What is it?
Jac, I was working on this response when the last topic was locked. I believe it fits in here with our discussion. Christ the Image of God Speaking of "His beloved Son" who has brought us "redemption, the forgiveness of sins" (Col. 1:13-14), the apostle tells us that "he is ...

Zoegirl my post was not meant as an insult. B.W. just picked the wrong word that's all!

I warned you B.W. Not only did I warn you that you picked the wrong word! I also warned you against posting against Fortigurn with out research!

Re: Trinity – What is it?
Take your time B.W. I'm no different than you, I don't want to believe a lie any more than you do! However, Elohim is not the word you are looking for. I have seen to much research by your own fellow believers of the Trinity to know that they avoid this Hebrew word like the plague! Read our post on ...

Re: Trinity – What is it?
Hello B.W. I will repost my Elohim response from the lock topic since it was not answered due to the straying of the topic. Elohim Elohim has been a very confusing word for many people. The word elohim is used various ways in Scripture. It is not only used to describe the Almighty, but also individu...

Re: The Power of Sin
Hi Harry, Here's a different view: It is generally taught that Adam and Eve were spiritually perfect immediately after their creation, seeing that it says, "And God saw every thing that He had made, and, behold, it was very good…" (Gen. 1:31). Never mind the fact that even poisonous snakes...

Re: I have a question of fairness and salvation, does everyone g
Hi Fortigurn, I will try to read your links, work is starting to pick up so time is getting short. Thanks
Edit... Did I read correctly? Do you have over 36,200 post on that site? Are you retired?

Re: More Trinity stuff
Hey B.W. those links are called commentaries. I have about 6 of them on my e-sword program. They can be very helpful. However they can be very bias towards the denomination whom the writer represents. For example, R.C Sproul has a Reformation study Bible. Will it show any bias towards Calvinism? Oth...
