The God of Jesus is unitarian, not trinitarian.

@RevivedThoughts @Mad_Pieman Note that your claim here is not a scriptural claim. No place that makes the case that we need a divine sacrifice, rather that a man died.

[Brandon Duke @Brandon_W_Duke]

@RevivedThoughts @hookskat Modalists say Jesus is God… don’t think you want to make “Jesus is God” essential for salvation.

@RevivedThoughts @billswerski1985 Long as you are interacting with unitarians, here’s what a unitarian scholar says about “the word became flesh”.

Ya, it's a classic "not a cult because we have the numbers" thing:

Trinitarian: "JWs shun people who aren't Unitarian! How can they? Total cult!"

Also Trinitarian: "OMG, you're a Unitarian. Sorry, you're kicked out of our church and we'll no longer associated with you. You might as well be in a cult!"

1 out of 4 biblical scholars believe that Jesus is the only true God of Israel...

Trinitarians: "We have a MOUNTAIN of verses to support Jesus = God in the NT."

Their mountain:

I think the below is my favourite Unitarian vs. Trinitarian debate so far. The reason is that later in the debate there was rapid iteration to drill down into disagreements without an iciness or rhetorical shows that prevent frank discussion.

It seems they were able to do this because @WillBarlow85 and Sam Nesan have a good personal relationship. They seem to be able to see each other's perspectives and why those might make sense, while simultaneously disagreeing.

There weren't attempts to score cheap rhetorical points, just drilling down until one hits explanatory bedrock.

I think this would be *even more enlightening* with extended, more casual discussions exploring the plethora of texts which bear on this issue between two people who know their stuff and respect/like each other, as here.

Letter from Thomas Jefferson to Francis Adrian Van der Kemp, July 30, 1816...

[Unitarian Christian Alliance @UnitarianChrist]

"And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man." (Luke 2:52, King James Version)

versus

"And Jesus in his human nature increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with one third or two thirds of God, and man." (Luke 2:52, New Trinitarian Version)

If you want to explain the Trinity without accidentally stepping in a heresy, this is pretty much your only option:

How Platonism & Neo-Platonism Shaped the Development of the Trinity https://t.co/Ggyi4fxAW9 The development of the Trinity was deeply impacted by Plato and Plotinus.

[Unitarian Christian Alliance @UnitarianChrist]

Would it be asking too much for you to provide at least one verse from the Bible that states that a follower of Jesus' teachings (aka "a Christian") is obligated to believe in the doctrine of the Trinity?

@BibleFeedOnline @KameronMazurek @OneGodPodcast @KeganChandler That's pretty accurate. They're just trying to do too much in the book. BTW my new engages with The Incarnate Christ and His Critics on John 17:1-3 and with Bowman's argument from the Bible to the Trinity. https://t.co/vuDgzLpfXM

[Unitarian Christian Alliance @UnitarianChrist]

The Apostle Paul did not teach Gentiles the Trinity. This is a good resource to learn more.

[Shema Christianity @shemaistheway]

The lack of controversy in the NT over the supposed “Trinitarianism” of the early church speaks volumes to it being an accretion.
