401: Hopkins, E. Washburn: Origin and Evolution of Religion
What the fail to tell you that Hopkins also said: "The beginning of the doctrine of the Trinity appears already in John " (c. 100). "To Jesus and Paul the doctrine of the trinity was apparently unknown; . . . they say nothing about it." (Origin and Evolution of Religion, E. W. Hopkins, p 336) "The early Church declared that Christ was the Logos and that the Logos was God. As such, though the earlier Gospels give no hint of this, Christ in John is represented as remembering his preexistence. Paul does not say that Christ is God, but he identifies Christ with the Holy Spirit and applies to him words of the Old Testament used of God: 'I am God and ... unto me every knee shall bow' (Isa 45:22-23; Phil 2:10)." (Origin and Evolution of Religion, E. W. Hopkins, p. 336) "But the first Christian theology was given in the words 'I and my Father are one' and the plain faith of the early church members who were not doctrinaires was just this and nothing more. Jesus is God. So proclaimed the first ... ...

Interpretation not done today. No accusation of madness. I Cor. 14:23 Today confusion rampant. No confusion allowed. I Cor. 14:33 Today, all in confusion. Women kept silence. I Cor. 14:34 All speak today. In regulating usage of gifts, women had not abilities. Holy Spirit Baptism audible. No mistake in knowing H. S. came upon them. Acts 2:2 None will say so today.

There is nothing wrong with the phenomenon of giving forth ecstatic utterances, but it is error when it is confused with the New Testament gift of tongues. Ecstatic, automatic speech can bring forth a release of tension and can be therapeutic, but when it is substituted for rational, religious expression, it is a delusion. Paul was no doubt talking about such a phenomenon as contemporary tongue speaking when he wrote in I Corinthians 12:2, about pagans, "You know that when you were pagans, ... ...

403: Who Do You Think Jesus Is?
Jesus (God the son) has existed from eternity with God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit. John 1:1,14 says, "In the beginning was the Word (Jesus) and the Word was with God and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God...and the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory." Jesus made reference to his pre-earth existence, "Father, glorify Me with the glory I had with thee before the world was" (John 17:5). Right now Jesus is in heaven with the Father just as He was before creation. No scripture gives us a clearer picture of who Jesus is than Phil 2:6, "Although Jesus existed in the form of God, he did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men. And being found in the appearance as a man, He humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. Therefore, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above ... ...

404: Who Is This Man Jesus?
It is not a fairy tale or a fable, for the story of Jesus has been documented by not only reliable New Testament writers but by major historians as well. It is a story that can be exciting to you and might possibly change your life. Jesus was born in the year 4 B.C., in the city of David, Bethlehem. He was born of the virgin Mary, fathered in her by the Holy Spirit of God. Angels announced to the world in beautiful song, glory to God in the highest and on earth peace among men with whom He is well ... John wrote in his gospel (20:30) "Now Jesus did many other signs ill the presence of the disciples which are not recorded in this book. But these were written so that you might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name." And John recorded that Jesus raised the dead to live again, made the blind to see, made the lame to walk, cast out demons, made food for five thousand from a few loaves of bread and a few fish, stilled the seas during ... ...

405: "Acts 29" Paul's 4th & 5th Missionary Journeys!

C. Of Course Paul was arrested when he returned to Jerusalem and was sent to Rome after "appealing to Caesar" in Acts 25:11 D. So the question now is, did he go to Spain after Nicopolis for a year or was he arrested near Nicopolis for his second and final imprisonment? 1. There is no evidence that Paul went to Spain in 2 Timothy. Surely if he had made the trip, the Holy Spirit would have given us some hint. 2.

Person and work of the Holy Spirit The Trinity Salvation through the Atonement The guidance of our life through prayer The death and resurrection of Christ The return of the Saviour The millennial Reign of Christ We affirm that the above ten Articles of Faith is considered in CECC to be "The Essentials" and beyond these Articles of Faith there is no stress laid on believing and committing to other Christian doctrines. Anyone subscribing to these may become a member of the Body and Assembly of CECC. These Articles of Faith are the cornerstones upon CECC rests and upon which it has grown into an ecclesiastical body of dedicated ministers banded together to spread the gospel. Individuals can hold certain personal views in cultural and doctrinal beliefs, but they are at the liberty to do so if this dose not conflict with Scripture and these Articles of Faith. Discussion of issues is encouraged and diversity of opinion is accepted. We have learned to agree to disagree in the name of Love. ... ...

408: PRAYER IN SYNAGOGUES: "House of prayer" Proseuche
... When non-Christians pray "through us" God will answer their prayers: ""Also concerning the foreigner who is not from Your people Israel, when he comes from a far country for Your great name's sake and Your mighty hand and Your outstretched arm, when they come and pray toward this house, then hear from heaven, from Your dwelling place, and do according to all for which the foreigner calls to You, in order that all the peoples of the earth may know Your name, and fear You as do Your people Israel, and that they may know that this house which I have built is called by Your name."

410: Why are most Jehovah's Witnesses former Roman Catholics?
Both share a similar hermeneutic on how to determine truth: Catholics have a system called, "Doctrine of Development" popularized by Dr. Newman, but anticipated by the German theologian Mohler in his work, Symbolik. This hermeneutic contended that Christ had committed to His Church certain seeds and germs of truth, destined afterwards to expand to definite forms; that He did not intend that the teaching of His Church should be always the same; but ordained that it should go on continually improving under the guidance of His Holy Spirit. Jw's employ exactly the same hermeneutic but call it by a different name: "New Light" Both teach the organization is supreme over the Bible rather than the Bible being supreme over the organization. The average members are told by the organization that they cannot understand the Bible without the help of the official organization. Both discourage independent thinking from the world organization. Both continue to blindly follow the organization in spite ... ...

The shift is from function to ontology, from the "economic trinity" (Father, Son, and Spirit in relation to us) to the "immanent" or "essential Trinity" (Father, Son, and Spirit in relation to each other).

However, the additional words of Job's wife (Job 2:9a,9b,9c, 9d, LXX) found in the Septuagint but absent in the Masoretic are a different matter altogether and likely represent a scribal addition (gloss). To everyone who reads the story in the Masoretic Text, Job's wife simply didn't say enough to satisfy human curiosity, but that's how the Holy Spirit may have left it.

425: What Is Satan Really Like?
He is cast in the role of the adversary of man, an arrogant aspirant to the authority that belongs to God. Satan is a usurper of God's place in the heart of man. See him there, using enticement, deception, and falsehood. His subtle and beguiling ways have earned for him an appropriate name, "devil", or slanderer. There are implications in Scripture that Satan is a spirit being who was formerly an angel. The Bible alludes to fallen angels in II Peter 2:4 and Jude 6. I John 3:8, states that the devil sinned from the beginning. Too, there is an indication that the devil came under condemnation (I Timothy 3:6). Satan is called the "god of this world" II Corinthians 4:4. The world is Satan's arena.

426: Messianic Bible Prophecy Fulfilled: Matthew 24 The Olivet Discourse
Full-Preterists, for example, demand that their detractors pigeon-hole each verse in Matthew 24 and Luke 17 to be speaking either exclusively of AD 70 or the future second coming only to conclude such compartmentalization is impossible since they are synoptic versions of the same speech. In this way, Full-Preterists have violated the way the Holy Spirit himself designed prophetic texts to be understood. Even worse, Full-Preterists fail to notice that Matthew 24 was spoken on the mount of Olives on ... Jesus, the "Son of man" came in AD 33 on the day of Pentecost: "'The sun will be turned into darkness And the moon into blood, Before the great and glorious day of the Lord shall come. 'And it shall be that everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'" (Acts 2:20-21) c. Notice Peter realized that Pentecost and Acts 2 was the fulfillment of Joel 2, otherwise nobody today can call on the name of the Lord for salvation! 8.

427: 1 Corinthians 16:1-2 Weekly giving on Sundays
... At the beginning of each week the Christian is to "lay by him in store" his contribution, systematically planning his giving and setting it aside. Figuring out one's offerings involves a calculation of earnings. If God had transferred the solemnity of the Sabbath to the first day of the week, Paul would not have recommended such activity to be done on that day." We take note that Sabbatarians will agree this verse is connected with the "weekly Sabbath offering." They say this verse merely ... There is plenty of time after the work day on Friday to make any such calculation. If this verse instructs Christians to calculate their Sabbath offering, the most logical time would be right after getting paid Friday afternoon at the end of the work week and the day before the "divine Sabbath service". Seems the Holy Spirit got it backwards for Sabbatarians! According to Sabbatarians, the Holy Spirit told us to make the calculation the day after it was to be given rather than the day before.

429: Lesson 10: Believe in God and in Christ
Our belief must be an obedient belief in all the things that God tells us to do. We cannot have selective obedience and be pleasing to God. Our obedience is how we show our love to God and Christ. John 14:21, "He that has My commandments and keeps them, it is he who loves Me. And he who loves Me will be loved of My Father, and I will love him and manifest Myself to him." Just before Jesus ascended back into heaven, He commanded His apostles in Matthew 28:19-20 to "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you." Our faith in Him must lead us to observe all things the Lord has commanded us to do in order to be pleasing to Him. We cannot select just certain commands of God to obey. We cannot ignore or rationalize away any of His commands that we don't like and expect to be saved. To believe in Him is to obey Him fully. Questions Lesson 10 ... ...

... Neither the word Trinity, nor the explicit doctrine as such, appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Old Testament: "Hear, 0 Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord" (Deut. 6:4). The earliest Christians, however, had to cope with the implications of the coming of Jesus Christ and of the presence and power of God among them-i.e., the Holy Spirit, whose coming was connected with the celebration of the Pentecost. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit were associated in such New Testament passages as the Great Commission: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them mi the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (Matt. 28:19); and in the apostolic benediction: "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all" (II Cor. 13:14). Thus, the New Testament established the basis for the doctrine of the Trinity. The doctrine developed gradually over ... ...

The Christian religion in the 3rd century made no compromise with any of the pagan religions and kept far away from the numerous intersections out of which, under the influence of the monotheistic philosophy of religion, a now religiousness developed itself. But the spirit of this religiousness entered into the Church and produced forms of expression in doctrine and cultus to correspond with itself.

... How vividly the early church experienced the reality of the Spirit, and how definitely it was influenced by that reality, can be seen on every hand in the Pauline letters. The Spirit is called the Spirit of God, as well as the Spirit of Christ (Rom. 8:9)., Here, too, however, the Spirit is not yet conceived in personal terms, at least not in the sense of the later doctrine of the Trinity. The New Testament is not satisfied, however, with these sometimes rather far-reaching assertions about God the Father, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. Some passages present triadic formulas. They are called "triadic," and not "trinitarian," because they name Father, Son, and Spirit alongside one another without reflecting upon the oneness of God and, hence, do not yet contain a doctrine of the Trinity.
