1 John 5:7-8: For there are three that bear record in heaven. Correct. THREE. The fact that you interpret "these three are one" literally and not as "unified" is rebuffed by Christ himself throughout the entire NT. Please refer to literally every scripture where Christ talks to his Father, describes his Father, etc.
John 1:14. And? What about it? We believe what it says.
Most Mormons know their Bible better than members of most other Christian denominations.
"Everything about the cult of Mormonism is counter to everything that Jesus taught and who Christians are."
Well, except for all the things that Jesus actually taught that are in the New Testament and didn't come out of a committee centuries later. We don't need you to tell us what the New Testament says, we read it more than you do.
And a Christian is a disciple of Christ who accepts Christ as their Lord and Savior and recognizes him as the Son of God. The Nicean creed doesn't make one a Christian.
@tome0806@RubenGallego I thought Jesus Christ was the bedrock of Christianity. Not a concept like "homoousios" born out of a committee centuries later with no Biblical support, but hey, you do you.
You don't get to gate keep Christ, thank God.
(sarcasm warning)
How brave to do this in a Nazi, Fascist, Authoritarian, Monarchist, Christian Nationalist, White Supremacist state overflowing with Gestapo troops!
So stunning, so inspiring.
I have chills.
Noted, but consider the emphasized text below.
The Divinity of Jesus: The council rejected the teachings of Arius (an Alexandrian presbyter) who argued that Jesus Christ was a created being and subordinate to the Father. Instead, the bishops established that Christ is co-equal, co-eternal, and homoousios (of one substance) with the Father.
@musepwt Doesn't speak well of the people of Maine then does it? Oh wait. The White population in the state is about 93.1% to 94.6%, making it the whitest state in the nation. Okay, now it makes sense.
If by colorful, you mean one candidate is a fanboy of the Nazi's, is a womanizer, yep. Its note worthy due to the magnitude of the screaming the Democrats have done in accusing Trump of being a Nazi with virtually no evidence. This guy stamped himself with it. Dems will vote for their own Nazi and prove they have no principles at all.
@SWLJackson1863@Kertis53@SenJohnCurtis The same council also debated if Christ was divine and the son of God. The Trinity is clearly the kind of concept that comes out of a committee of men, not from God.
@DefiantLs Neal gets paid by Left leaning media. He says what they want him to say.
Its funny watching him wrestle with the males in female sports controversy. He sounds ludicrous, but he is compliant with the views of people who write his checks.
@HoratioHorokqw@avidseries@BasedMikeLee Fortunately, you don't get to make the determination of who is Christian.
Christ defines it and we'll take His word for it.
@avidseries@BasedMikeLee First time I have seen you say something completely ignorant. I don't mean discriminatory or disrespectful. I mean purely ignorant.
@UziCryptoo Notably absent from your serious discussion is what is a livable wage? Who defines it? Or is this just "from each according to their abilities and too each according to their needs."
Because we know where that leads, starvation, gulags, and death.
@Bitcoin_Teddy People will not be able to afford kids. Population decline will continue.
And then eventually, when the population is 10% of what it is now, those people will have it easy.
He's right on the future state, but the road to get there is not pretty.
@emperorthesteve@ThisMomSaid@hemantmehta Do you have take moment to pause and reflect before you TELL people what they think?
Or do you have magic mind reading abilities Professor X?
