Chapter 23 - The Angel of His Presence

Coninued from Chapter 22y (Isaiah 63:7-10) Some trinitarians believe that the idea of the existence of three divine personalities active in man’s salvation was declared by the prophet Isaiah. He said: I will make mention of the mercies of Y-H-V-H, and the praises of Y-H-V-H, according to all that Y-H-V-H has bestowed on us; and the great goodness toward the house of Israel, which He has bestowed on them according to His compassions, and according to the multitude of His mercies. For He said:

What are the implications of the New Testament claim that Jesus was "born under law"?

What are the implications of the New Testament claim that Jesus was "born under law"?

What are the implications of the New Testament claim that Jesus was "born under law"? Let's find out. Answer: In Galatians 4:4 Paul claims that "God sent forth His Son, born of a woman, born under law." If we presume a birth without a man's assistance, we still have the problem that Jesus was not born in accordance with the Law. His birth, according to the New Testament, violates the laws of the Torah, which specify what constitutes adultery. Mary, according to the New Testament, did not conc

Which version of Stephens's Acts 7 speech is correct?

Which version of Stephens's Acts 7 speech is correct?

Stephen's speech, made while he was supposedly "full of the Holy Spirit" (Acts 7:55), shows a number of distinct differences from that found in Christian versions of the Bible which follow the Jewish Masoretic text (Acts 7:14-16). If these differences were said while under the influence of the "Holy Spirit" should this not mean that Stephen's version is correct and should be reflected in the appropriate texts found in Christian Bibles? Answer: In his speech, Stephen states: "And Joseph sent an

Where do Christian Scriptures contradict what is written in the Jewish Scriptures

Where do Christian Scriptures contradict what is written in the Jewish Scriptures

Can you give me an example of where the Christian Scriptures contradict what is written in the Jewish Scriptures? Answer: Stephen, while he was supposedly "full of the Holy Spirit" (Acts 7:55), makes Abraham the purchaser of a piece of ground at Shechem, in effect, transferring the burial place of the patriarchs from Hebron in Judea to Shechem in Samaria. The Masoretic text (and the Septuagint Version) identifies Hebron as the location of the burial cave (Machpelah) Abraham purchased from Eph

Does Matthew 28:19 show the existence of a triune deity?

Does Matthew 28:19 show the existence of a triune deity?

Doesn't the command by Matthew's Jesus to, "Go therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit" (Matthew 28:19) show the existence of a triune deity. Answer: Matthew 28:19 states: "Go therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing in the name of the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit." Although the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are grouped together, this verse does not prove the existence of a triune deity. The verse merely indic

Where The New Testament Refutes The Christian Trinity

Continued from Part 1 PART 2:  THE PROBLEM OF THE SON The Master and the servant There are many New Testament passages that refute the Christian doctrine of the Trinity.  An examination of statements attributed to Jesus by the Gospels, shows that he never said he was God or a part of God.  Jesus spoke of his Father in heaven as his God (John 20:17), to whom he attributed superior authority, knowledge, and greatness (Matthew 20:23, Mark 13:32, John 14:28).  The Trinity doctrine says “the Fathe

The Division of The Divine Essence Misunderstood In The Gospel of John

The Division of The Divine Essence Misunderstood In The Gospel of John

Continued from Part 7 God:  undivided and without equal How did John’s Jesus view the possibility of a division in the divine essence?  Chapter 17 of the Gospel of John records a prayer, which its author attributes to Jesus.  In verse 2 of this prayer, Jesus views himself as being sent by God, his Father, who “gave him authority over all mankind.”  But of his “Father” he is quoted, in verse 3, as saying that he is “the only true God.”  Jesus does not say, “We are the only true God,” or even, “
