To a trin it wouldn't.

Common sense logic escapes trins.

You should not take another trin with you should you ever go shopping for a car.

You too, might end up spending $15k on a bucket of water instead of a car.

CONCLUSION --- JESUS CHRIST IS ALMIGHTY GOD!

Only those who willfully, volitionally reject what the Word of God says, choose to deny that Jesus Christ is Almighty God. I believe the Bible is the Word of God! If you do not believe what it is written in it, Jesus Christ is of no effect to you, you are yet in your sins.

======
Did you ever consider the possability that you are in unbelief of what the Bible does teach?

God raised up a man through Mary by His Word and temporarily dwelt in him during his ministry and at the resurrection made it permanent and more so.

Your idea gives it that Jesus came down from Heaven into the womb of Mary, into a little baby who had to learn wisdom, hide that He was God the creator, had no power as He had left it somewhere until God sent the Holy Spirit upon Him, who partly died on the cross, and raised Himself from the dead where He had been preaching to dead people for 3 days, entered Heaven where the Father God gave Him His Heavenly powers back to Him.

Trinitarians have learnt unbelief.

Let me see if I can simplify it even further.

Your dog is at your right hand.

A trin believes that since Jesus Christ is at the right hand of God, that Jesus is God.

Your dog is on your right hand, therefore, using your logic, your dog is Bright Raven.

Since your dog is at your right hand, your dog and you make up a binity.

However, common sense logic teaches that since your dog is not in the same place as you, but at your right hand, that you and your dog are two separate beings. You are Bright Raven, the dog next to you is not Bright Raven.

That's rather absurd.

Let me see. Oatmeal is standing with his dog at his right side. Since i do not bark I'm not a dog so I must be Oatmeal

King David believed it:

In Psalm 110:5 king David used the special form of "adon" which is "adonay." This special form is the name used for God only, (see Strong's #136).

See also the TWOT:

Quote:
When adon appears in the special plural form, with a first common singular pernominal suffix (adonay), it always refers to God

Theological Wordbook of the Old Testament, pages 12-13.
Psalm 110:1:

The Lord said to my Lord (adon),“Sit at My right hand,
Till I make Your enemies Your footstool.”


Psalm 110:5:

My Lord (adonay) is at Your right hand;
He shall execute kings in the day of His wrath.


In verse 1 David called His Lord at Jehovah's right hand by the name "adon." But in verse 5 he says that the One at Jehovah's right hand is "adonay" which is used for God only.

Caiaphas believed it:

Caiaphas asked Jesus if he was the Christ, the Son of God and Jesus answered saying that he would see the Son of Man sitting on the right hand of power. Caiaphas then rent his clothes which was a sign to all that Jesus had just profaned God's name, Leviticus 24:16.

Trinitarians agree with king David and Caiaphas!

If the Bible verses DID NOT convince you, this won't either:

If Jesus is only a man and not God, then we are of all men most miserable, because Jesus would not be sitted at the right hand of the Father. He could not be the Lamb in the Throne room spoken of in Revelation, because the sacrifice had to be perfect and only God can be perfect — humans are imperfect as hell and — He only as a man — would have been imperfect and therefore dying on the Cross, being the sacrifice he offered, had to be rejected by God because it was imperfect. If this scenario is true men has not hope.

If Jesus is only God and not man, then we are of all men most miserable, because God would never have died on the Cross, because God cannot die. If this scenario is true men has not hope.

Man sinned. God did not sin. Therefore, man had to pay for the sin, but man could not pay for the sin committed. So, God in His infinite justice, love, mercy and grace, came himself in the form of His Son in a body prepared just for Him, because the infinite cannot be placed in the finite and died on a cruel cross, so that EVERYONE can come and receive eternal life, without works. Because there is not one human being in the world that can be good enough for God, no matter what we do say. So, He came Himself.

Either Jesus has to be God and Man at the same time, and that Man had to be perfect, and only God can be perfect, or we are of all men most miserable, there is no hope for anybody, Trinitarian or otherwise.





Truth is truth, it matters not if you believe it or not.
==========
No man can come to God except through Christ. (Jn. 14:20)
No man can come to Christ unless he comes through the Cross. (Jn. 3:16; Eph. 2:13–18)
No man can come to the Cross without a denial of self. (Lk. 9:23–24)
==========
If the “Oughts” of the Old Testament were difficult to obey, Our Lord’s teaching is unfathomably more difficult. Remember, the commandments were given irrespective of human ability or inability to keep them; then when Jesus Christ came, instead of doing what we all too glibly say He did—put something easier before men, He made it a hundredfold more difficult, because He goes behind the law to the disposition. —Oswald Chambers

Thanks for acknowledging that I spanked your Theology!

I love how you spiritual children expose yourself to the lies you blindly follow! Key word being... blindly!

You follow the same worn pattern of many here... You claim you did not read my presentation when you actually did read it!

Then you have the audacity to say I'm wrong without even a spiritual whimper as of why!

What your really posting is... I follow the traditions of men with out the need to defend what I am told to believe! As I (Grosnick Marowbecan) not expalin the truth you showed against my beliefs

One day... Grosnick Marowbe... Jesus will point his finger at you and say why did you not believe that I have a GOD!
( John 20:17 ; Rev 3:2 ; Rev 3:12 )

Jesus has a GOD!

Paul





From the cowardice that shrinks from new truth,
From the laziness that is content with half-truths,
From the arrogance that thinks it knows all truth,
Oh God of Truth, deliver us.

Why didn't Jesus reprimand men who worshiped him? Just wondering.





He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose.

They? You mean the Greek converts who over hundreds of years put their platonic world view into Christianity?

Your modern non-Hebraic view is ultimately dependent on the view that religion is a movement from man to God rather than a revelation of God to man! You teach out of the Prophets and into Plato!


No scripture teaches the Trinity or that one must believe Jesus is God in order to be a Christian!

God can do whatever He wants to do. If He chooses to come in the flesh, He has no problems doing it. No problem at all.





Truth is truth, it matters not if you believe it or not.
==========
No man can come to God except through Christ. (Jn. 14:20)
No man can come to Christ unless he comes through the Cross. (Jn. 3:16; Eph. 2:13–18)
No man can come to the Cross without a denial of self. (Lk. 9:23–24)
==========
If the “Oughts” of the Old Testament were difficult to obey, Our Lord’s teaching is unfathomably more difficult. Remember, the commandments were given irrespective of human ability or inability to keep them; then when Jesus Christ came, instead of doing what we all too glibly say He did—put something easier before men, He made it a hundredfold more difficult, because He goes behind the law to the disposition. —Oswald Chambers
==========
"No serious scholar has ventured to postulate the non-historicity of Jesus." ~ Otto Betz
