That’s nice. Are you looking to fight about it or something?I obey God, not man concerning the things of salvation.
No, I did not create the thread under any pretenses. Are you Oneness Pentecostal by any chance? I do understand the different perspectives between Oneness Pentecostal and Trinity, but where we stand together is One God, who is beyond understanding. The Bible presents One God as Creator, as Word, as Loving Communication and Purveyor of Truth between Father and Son. In other words, God is beyond how we define a human, but the Bible and therefore the Church take a stab at furthering our understanding of this difference of the enormity of God.I dont care anything for the Catholic trinity. Neither to do I adhere to the false Catholic trinity
I would NEVER enter into any kind of a relationship with a Catholic trinity - nor a trinity period. They created this trinity thread under the false pretenses of prayer.
Your translation has a comma error=When Christ rose from the dead, He told Mary not to touch Him as He had not yet risen.
The day Jesus died, He told the thief hanging next to Him that He would be with Jesus in Paradise that day. So, you know He wasn't referring to Heaven.
They went to Abraham's Bosom, also called Paradise. It is where those who belonged to God, but had not yet had their sins removed by Christ were congregated.
God's solution was to create “Abraham's Bosom” (Luke 16:22), a special place that was set apart from the rest of hell by a great gap or gulf. This arrangement was temporary, because after Jesus died, he went to Abraham's Bosom, and He emptied it. They came back with Him.
Where they were waiting for Him:
^
Luke 16:19-31
The Rich Man and Lazarus
“There was a rich man who was dressed in purple and fine linen and lived in luxury every day. At his gate was laid a beggar named Lazarus, covered with sores and longing to eat what fell from the rich man’s table. Even the dogs came and licked his sores.
“The time came when the beggar died and the angels carried him to Abraham’s side. The rich man also died and was buried. In Hades, where he was in torment, he looked up and saw Abraham far away, with Lazarus by his side. So he called to him, ‘Father Abraham, have pity on me and send Lazarus to dip the tip of his finger in water and cool my tongue, because I am in agony in this fire.’ “But Abraham replied, ‘Son, remember that in your lifetime you received your good things, while Lazarus received bad things, but now he is comforted here and you are in agony. And besides all this, between us and you a great chasm has been set in place, so that those who want to go from here to you cannot, nor can anyone cross over from there to us.’ "He answered, ‘Then I beg you, father, send Lazarus to my family, for I have five brothers. Let him warn them, so that they will not also come to this place of torment.’ “Abraham replied, ‘They have Moses and the Prophets; let them listen to them.’ “‘No, father Abraham,’ he said, ‘but if someone from the dead goes to them, they will repent.’ “He said to him, ‘If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, they will not be convinced even if someone rises from the dead.
Where Jesus said He was going:
^
Matthew 12:40 For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. < which gives us the location of Hell.
2 completely different events.Your translation has a comma error=
Truly i tell you, today you will be with me in paradise=error
truly i tell you today, you will be with me in paradise= correct
Proof= the resurrection occurs on the last day=Rev 20:6 during Jesus 1000 year reign when satan is abyssed. All things will be made back to perfection during that 1000 years, including earth transformed into an Eden( Paradise)
Jesus was in Hades on that first day=the grave.

So, does this mean we are "one" with the father too? If so, "one" refers to purpose, not the same personage. Thus, when Jesus says he is one with the Father, that doesn't mean Jesus is Father in Heaven. The trinity thinking that there are 3 in one is silly and priestcraft like.
Now, to your question, why would true believers with faith in Christ think the Holy Ghost isn't important and ignored? He is the "AT&T" connection to the Godhead. He communicates back to us the answers to our question whether yes or no. If given to us with proper authority, the HG lives with us consistently 24 hours a day.
It's your scholars who have altered the translations.Because you believe error out of your altered translation before you believe Jesus.
No they don't. They pray to the Father in the name of the Son. The communication conduit is the Holy Ghost. I've never heard a Christian pray to the Holy Ghost. Jesus taught us to only pray to the Father and do it in the name of the Son, himself. The Baptismal ordinance prayer isn't a personal prayer. It's part of the ordinance and must be done properly without mistakes. When I baptize I take the person's right wrist with my left hand and he grabs my left wrist with his left hand. I raise my right arm to the square and say, "Having been commissioned by Jesus Christ, I baptize you in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, amen. Then I put my right hand in the small of the back of the person and begin to put them into the water. To help, we teach the person to bend their knees and to hold their nose with their right fingers and hold their breath. Down they go and everything including the clothing must go fully under the water. Then, I bring them back up.Christians pray in the name of the father, son and holy ghost.
There is the... "good fight of faith" I'm always looking to defend that.That’s nice. Are you looking to fight about it or something?
I think you are lying to yourself about that. What is it that you think I have attacked that you must defend? All I have said is that the trinity is not a mystery to be solved. The trinity is a relationship to be entered into. If you think the Holy Spirit is guiding you into fighting with others, I think you must be lying to yourself. Jesus said brush the dust off of your sandals and move on. He didn't say force others to believe.There is the... "good fight of faith" I'm always looking to defend that.
any more questions?
You brought up the word "FIGHT"I think you are lying to yourself about that. What is it that you think I have attacked that you must defend? All I have said is that the trinity is not a mystery to be solved. The trinity is a relationship to be entered into. If you think the Holy Spirit is guiding you into fighting with others, I think you must be lying to yourself. Jesus said brush the dust off of your sandals and move on. He didn't say force others to believe.
Yes, I did ask you if you were looking for a fight. Because that's what it seems you are looking for. It still seems that way to me.You brought up the word "FIGHT"
ding: " That’s nice. Are you looking to fight about it or something?"
I focused on God as He has told us to, " fight the good fight of faith." You focus on no one but yourself-sad. It's not about you-it's not about you attacking anything. It's about obeying God.
and again I repeat, I'm fighting the "good fight of faith"Yes, I did ask you if you were looking for a fight. Because that's what it seems you are looking for. It still seems that way to me.
The part that you say it's for God when it's for you. That's the part I don't understand.and again I repeat, I'm fighting the "good fight of faith"
What part of that do you not understand?
The good fight of faith is the Word of God. Faith is for both God and man, prayer is for both God and man. God has requested both.The part that you say it's for God when it's for you. That's the part I don't understand.
How is faith for God? How is prayer for God? Do you believe God is lacking in anything?The good fight of faith is the Word of God. Faith is for both God and man, prayer is for both God and man. God has requested both.
