I told you the conversation is over.  All you are interested in is arguing with me.  What you have done with me is the reason why people hate Christians.  You just bark at them like a pit bull.  You use scripture is to attack people with, instead of sharing the good news of who Jesus is, why he came, what he did, and how believing in him can transform lives and give non-Christians hope and joy.  You are in sin dude, and you’re so caught up in "what you think you know to be right", you yourself didn't even post your position on who God is.  All you did was yell I am wrong in a hostile fundamentalist manner and shoot scripture in my face like I'm scum.  If you think I am wrong, why not in humility and friendship seek to show me the way you see it?

Don't just get pissed off at people and attack them.  How does it look to non-Christians when seeing two Christians fighting and arguing?  I'm here to share the good news; the news that changed my life.  So many people on here write in these journals about a life that sucks, about not having any hope, about a God who they hate.  This journal is not about me, it's about sharing the gospel, and hopefully by sharing the word of God people can meet Jesus and receive grace.

We have all sinned and fall short of the glory of God, you included.  What you have is a gift, and you can't boast in anything other than what Jesus has done for you because you too deserve to go to Hell.  I deserve to go to Hell too; I'm not better than anyone on here.  I'm not here to be quizzed and argue over theology.  I'm here to know culture, love people, and see lives transformed to live for Jesus Christ.

Why are you here?

This is so true, i completely agree...

I love how u explained it.

This is an excellent entry. And very true.

John 14:28, Jesus has something to say,

"You heard me tell you, 'I am going away and I will come back to you.' If you loved me, you would rejoice that I am going to the Father; for the Father is greater than I."

Question Number 1: If Jesus is God how come he said that God the Father is greater than him?

A: There is submission among members of the Trinity.  Each one has his own role in the relationship, and each submits to the other.

Matthew 24:36
"But no one knows the date and hour when the end will be - not even the angels. No, nor even God's Son. Only the father knows."

Question Number 2: If Jesus is God how come he doesn't know when the end will be?

A: http://www.gotquestions.org/Jesus-know-return.html

God has the question number 3 in Isaiah 46:5

Question Number 3: "Whom would you compare me with, as an equal, or match me against, as though we were alike?"

A: .....So if God recognizes himself as Trinitarian, who can compare to that....You don't see God as Trinitarian, but God does, so nothing else in existence is Trinitarian....The Trinity is so unique, no other religions God compares to it, because thoes other religions are false religions, and they try to make God out of what they understand.  Is it so far-fetched to think God is unique to anything here on Earth?

Question Number 4: Can you show me a verse in the bible wherein I can read the word "Trinity" or "God-the-Father, God-the-Son, and God-the-Holy-Ghost"?

A: Matt 3:16-17 - As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him.  And a voice from heaven said, "This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased." 

Can you show me where it says "grandfather " in the bible?  And is Jesus really "Bread and Water, that you need to eat of him"?

Lastly, Question Number 5: Can you find the word "Rosary" in the bible?

A: I'm not catholic... This is a foolish thing to argue about...

I tend to lean on the side of Adaman. I don't use the word trinitarian to describe what I believe. God is everywhere, and I don't see difference between God as the Holy Ghost and God as the burning bush. Is the burning bush a fourth incarnation of The Lord. I haven't noticed the bible seperating the three as three different God's, personalities, or anything else.

A: Jesus was the burning bush See John 8:58, I also attend a non-denominational church.  If you really want me to I can find all the verses that separate the three of them.

This debate is over, I stand where I stand, the God of the Bible is Trinitarian, you will never convince me otherwise, and the conversation is over.

    I'm very non-denominational, by the way.

    Anyway, that's just my comment. Take it easy.

oh and thank you for trying to hlep me but nothing is going to change my mind on this i have felt too much. the only reason i believe in god is because nothing on earth can make it so i have this much pain at once.

i personally believe that we are reborn as a new human being and we bring what he have learned with us.

so im sorry but nothing is going to change my mind.

ok why would i ask god to forgive me...

he should be asking me to forgive him.

i did nothing wrong i was polite and i helped people all the time and them my mom gets my life messed up and ruins it then god gives me heart problems at the age of 15.

well maybe god loves little children but not bigger ones.

and im sorry if this offends you but if this is so god is a pedifile.

there now god has a reason to make my life a living hell.

and if he is so forgiving then he should know by now that in this world you need help and him sitting there and doing nothing but giving me a hard time is not helping.
