452: Hades: The conscious realm of the dead!
... Later rabbinic writers clearly taught that Sheol had two sections. The righteous were in bliss in one section while the wicked were in torment in the other. (Death and The Afterlife, Robert Morey, p. 78-80) In the Old Testament, the two expressions "lowest Sheol" and "pit" [Heb: bowr] always denotes the compartment where the ... Jesus said "just as Jonah was in the belly of the sea monster for three days, so also the son of man will be." Of course Arians make a double mistake of arguing that Jesus (God the Son) ceased to exist and became extinct for the three days He was in Hades. "Sheol Fire", "Hades fire" is found in these verses: Lk 16:24 "I am in agony in ... But along with this, we also find the fate in a retribution coming immediately after death and in a life of blessedness for the soul in the beyond." The rabbinic tradition before, during and after the time of Christ describes the soul departing the body and descending into Sheol at death. The rabbis consistently pictured both ... ...

Would it not be necessary, [in that case,] to follow the course of the tradition which they handed down to those to whom they did commit the Churches? 2. To which course many nations of those barbarians who believe in Christ do assent, having salvation written in their hearts by the Spirit, without paper or ink, and, carefully preserving the ancient tradition, believing in one God, the Creator of heaven and earth, and all things therein, by means of Christ Jesus, the Son of God; who, because of His surpassing love towards His creation, condescended to be born of the virgin, He Himself uniting man through Himself to God, and having suffered under Pontius Pilate, and rising again, and having been received up in splendour, shall come in glory, the Saviour of those who are saved, and the Judge of those who are judged, and sending into eternal fire those who transform the truth, and despise His Father and His advent.

454: Dunn, James D. G.: Christology in the Making, 2nd edition, 1989
So, for example, the assumption that the Logos of John 1. 1 can be substituted by 'Christ', or the argument that Col. 1. 15 would have been intended by Paul as a description of Christ, that is, of Jesus Messiah."' 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. Likewise if we assume that the Father/Son language of John's Gospel has in view ... ...

455: Have you been Baptized with The Wrong Baptism?
As a God-fearing person you want, I know, to be certain that your baptism is pleasing to God. Likely you have already noted the divergent views people hold regarding baptism. How are you to know what is right? Since the Bible is the means by which God and His Son, Jesus, have spoken to us, we must find clear directives in the Bible itself. If you are to know whether your baptism is Christ-approved, you must measure it by what the Bible says about three questions: First - What is baptism? Second - Who should be baptized? Third-Why should one be baptized? ... Paul, one of Christ's authorized spokesmen, wrote a letter to the church in ancient Rome, the sixth book of the New Testament, commonly called Romans. In it he said, "Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death; that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life". (See the sixth Chapter of Romans, verse 4). Please observe that Bible baptism ... ...

462: 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). Lack of unity can hinder prayer (I Peter 3: 7). We should pray one for another. ... ...

463: A Christian's Survival guide on any College Campus
Some are so anxious to get away from the limits imposed at home, so desirous to do their thing, they abandon their previous system of values. The prodigal son took the money he had coming from his father and left home, thinking he was free. Actually, he was just entering bondage. He thought that he had the solution to the problem of life, when he had not yet heard the question (Luke 15:11-32). This kind of attitude usually stems from a colossal case of selfishness, not yet discovered. The core solution to anxieties lies in a strong faith that "God is my father". With this assurance no changes in environment or culture will cause us to falter for "neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, or anything else in all creation shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord" (Romans 8:38,39).

received as preachers than those whom Christ appointed; for "no man knoweth the Father save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal Him." Nor does the Son seem to have revealed Him to any other than the apostles, whom He sent forth to preach-that, of course, which He revealed to them. Now, what that was which they preached-in other words, what it was which Christ revealed to them-can, as I must here likewise prescribe, properly be proved in no other way than by those very churches which the apostles rounded in person, by declaring the gospel to them directly themselves, both viva voce [living voice], as the phrase is, and subsequently by their epistles. If, then, these things are so, it is in the same degree manifest that all doctrine which agrees with the apostolic churches-those moulds and original sources of the faith must be reckoned for truth, as undoubtedly containing that which the (said) churches received from the apostles, the apostles from Christ, Christ from God. ... ...

467: Muller, James Arthur: Creeds and Loyalty
What Anti-Trinitarians quote: "This lack of a formulated doctrine of the Trinity reflects the theological thought of the second century. In the works of Justin Martyr, who wrote in about 150 A.D., the preexistence of the Son is stressed, yet in relation to the Father He is spoken of as 'in the second place.'" (Creeds and Loyalty, James Arthur Muller, Episcopal professor of church history, p9) Our comment Biblical Trinitarians totally agree with this quote! The Athanasius creed is nothing more than human attempts to describe the raw Biblical date of the trinity, namely the deity of Christ and the personality of the Holy Spirit. Although they correctly define the Son and Holy Spirit as persons of God, they err in their view that the three are equal and not subordinate. Deception Exposed: The deception is that anti-Trinitarians create a false dilemma by projecting the false impression in the mind of the reader that if the "Formulated trinity doctrine" (of the Athanasius creed) is not in ... ...

Barclay is saying, with our brackets added for emphasis, "John is not here identifying ... I do not think William Barclay was a Christian. In his autobiography he clearly states that he was not a Trinitarian. He did not believe that Jesus is God. He denied the doctrine of the Vicarious Atonement.

The actual form was like this: Instead of writing "Jesus" they would write: "J-s", where the dash was above, rather than as we have shown it in the middle. It was an abbreviation, not a substitution or replacement of one word for another. The Jehovah's Witness argument, therefore is invalid, because there is no substitution, but merely abbreviation.
