Is Suicide an answer to life's problems? ... No man's life is purposeless, for God sent you into the world to do some definite thing.

How to Pray Acceptably The kingdom for which they were taught to pray did come in their lifetime (Mark 9: 1). We must always pray in accordance with God's revealed will (I John 5: 14,15). We must live in union with him (John 15: 7). The entire godhead is involved in our prayers. Our petitions are to the Father (Matthew 6: 9), through the name of Christ, who is our mediator (I Timothy 2: 5; Acts 4: 12), and with the help of the Holy Spirit (Romans 8: 26). Just as baptism is in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit, so expressing in Jesus name would indicate unity of godhead (Matthew 8: 19). Prayer should never take the place of our spiritual efforts to get things done. We should pray as if all depended on God and work as if all depended on us. The emphasis is on work and pray, or watch and pray. We should never pray selfishly (James 4: 3). Again, we are taught to put the Lord's business first in prayer (Matthew 9: 37,39).

Dunn, James D. G.: Christology in the Making, 2nd edition, 1989 In contrast, classic orthodoxy is that Jesus Christ is he whom the Word of God became in the incarnation. The mistake, or so it seems to me, is the equivalent of treating 'person' in the Trinitarian formula ('one substance, three persons') as 'person' in the sense that we now understand 'person', or, more to the point, in the way that Jesus of Nazareth was a person. If the preexistent Word of God, the Son of God, is a person in that sense, then Christianity is unavoidably tritheistic. And if we take texts like Col. 1. 15ff. as straightforward descriptions of the Jesus who came from Nazareth we are committed to an interpretation of that text which has broken clearly and irrevocably from monotheism.

Lamson, Alvan: The Church of the First Three Centuries Lamson, Alvan: The Church of the First Three Centuries Click to View How the quote appears in "Should you believe in the Trinity", Watchtower, JW's booklet. "Summing up the historical evidence, Alvan Lamson says in The Church of the First Three Centuries: "The modern popular doctrine of the Trinity . . . derives no support from the language of Justin [Martyr]: and this observation may be extended to all the ante-Nicene Fathers; that is, to all Christian writers for three centuries after the birth of Christ. It is true, they speak of the Father, Son, and . . . holy Spirit, but not as co-equal, not as one numerical essence, not as Three in One, in any sense ... The developed 12th century "Athanasius creed" version of trinity doctrine is not found in scripture, but that is not the issue. What is important is that Justin and all most of the Ante-Nicene Fathers clearly taught that Jesus was uncreated God and the Holy Spirit was a person, being the third person in the trinity.

Thayer, Joseph Henry: A Greek-English Lexicon of the New Testament Here is a portion of Grimm's comments on THEOS in his Lexicon which Thayer translated. "2.

Grimm, Institutio theologiae ... No one disputes whether the Greek word "THEOS" (and the corresponding English translation: GOD) applies to Jesus. The question is the "theological meaning" of theos/god as it applies to Jesus. Even Jehovah's witnesses believe that THEOS/GOD is applied to Jesus because they openly call Jesus "A GOD" (Jn 1:1), "GOD" (Jn 20:28), "MIGHTY GOD". (Isa 9:6) If you don't ... Even though Thayer was theologically close to Jehovah's Witnesses in their view of Jesus, his footnote really doesn't help them.
