And btw bbyrd009,

I see the fruit in your theology. It's chopped candied fruit and/or dried fruit, nuts, and spices.

this is why i choose not to get involved in this, even though my views of the trinity are not good.

hmm. could you explain why? briefly? Ok, not "why," but "what," then. What has the trinity evidenced as "not good" to you? Of course you don't have to, and i do not need to put you on the spot or anything; the fruit is already plain, why offend people who have a different opinion, right.

As to the "why," of course that part i understand, we seek the approval of men, naturally, and although this is made into a "bad" thing, it is not; it is one of the ways we have to justify our positions, and let's not forget that we are advised to seek agreement, also, which is just another way of putting the other side of that coin, as sure as your witness of the fr...results of the trinity from your pov would also illuminate the issue, but even though there is no way they could be proven "false," because after all they are just opinions (which is all i have, too), you recognize that you would have to suffer a "stoning" for this, so to speak, and i have already been hit with that exact stone a couple times already, lol, the spot is just getting numb now, or whatever, so Rick thinks I'm a fruitcake, then. Rick is entitled to an opinion, too. But then i notice Rick didn't bring a prophet, saying "Trinity," either, or anything else, for that matter, for support, so i trust that everyone will see what they need to see. Maybe Rick is right!

it isnt that i seek the approval of men. if i did, i would not be here at all, since much of what i believe is strongly disputed. i just dont have the time nor the desire to debate on whether or not the trinity is real or false. maybe one day i will, but not today.

this is why i choose not to get involved in this, even though my views of I see the trinity are as not good.

And that makes no sense, in light of what you previously said regarding your views about the trinity being not good. How can you say on one hand that your views aren't good, and on the other hand, say you have no problem with your views?

Unless...

Instead of meaning what you actually said, you made a grammatical error perhaps?

Let's see if we can fix the confusion.

Again, you said:

As worded, your sentence is saying that your views aren't good. In other words, your views are flawed.

Perhaps you really meant to say:

So then, nevermind what God said,

"6I said, "You are gods; you are all sons of the Most High"

for now, ok? Poof, there you go, it is gone.

Sorry you're not feeling good. I've been following this dialogue -- so I'm curious as to what your views of the trinity Are. I'm interesting in hearing Your views.

I believe there is God the Father, God the son. I do not believe the holy spirit to be a being.

So you're kind of a Binitarian then? Just wondering, you have developed your own beliefs, but what religious influences or churches have you been part of?

He's admitted that he's not even a Christian. Why anyone would further debate the doctrine of the Trinity with someone who isn't even a Christian, is a waste of time.

well, as i said before, i am not feeling good today, so please forgive my grammatical errors. when i say my views on the trinity arent good, i mean that i have no good feelings towards it. to put plainly, i do not believe in it. so yes, you are right, i see the trinity as not good.

Regarding your quote -- where is that from? "6{i} ...." ?
