251: Trinity proof texts: John 5:18
They imply that Jesus did not teach he was equal with God, but the Jews said this as a false charge because they misunderstood what Jesus was actually saying. Problem is that it is John the apostle who said Jesus was "calling God his Father, making himself out equal with God." This in fact is true! "So take careful note that John, as the narrator the Gospel of John, ... In fact, most of the 39 articles of the "Mishnah, Shabboth" accurately represent the law of Moses without any dispute at all.

God's LAW of respect for HUMAN LIFE came in direct conflict with the SABBATH LAW and the sabbath law gave away to the higher law of MERCY.

252: The Incarnation of God, the Son: Jesus Christ
While Jesus was in a human body he could say, "my character and moral choices are identical to the conduct and behavour of the Father" John 14:8-9.

We believe that the Bible is God speaking in man's language, and in the original writings is exactly as He gave it, word for word without any error whatsoever.

JESUS: The God Who Forgives! Click to View Forgiveness is the perfume a flower leaves on the heel that crushed it. It is an undeserved grace that one who is sinned against grants the one who sinned against them. The word "grace" means literally in the original Greek "unmerited favor".

said, "Go you therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost". The question before us is what was and is the action of that baptism commanded by Christ and his apostles.

for we have learned that he is the Son of the true God Himself, that he holds a second place, and the Spirit of prophecy a third. " (First Apology 13:5-6). 190 AD Clement Of Alexandria "I understand nothing else than the Holy Trinity to be meant; for the third is the Holy Spirit, and the Son is the second, by whom all things were made according to the will of the Father."

(Against Praxeas, ch 12) Does the Bible teach the submission of the Holy Spirit as a third place? The question is whether the Bible teaches the "third place" of rank the Holy Spirit holds.

Our worship becomes vain and useless, if our doctrines come from men when they meet in conventions and conferences to decide what we are to believe and do.

So, if I or any other person cannot point to it in the Word of God, then please do not believe it, because there is too much at stake - your soul!

Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." All of us want to be children of God, but it is our faith in Christ that leads us to become children of God. This verse also tells us how our faith leads us to be children of God. It says, "For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." The word for as used in this scripture is a preposition, which means for the purpose of or in order to be. Therefore, we are baptized for the purpose of or in order to be God's children. To be a child of God and part of His family, we must be born into His family. Our Lord said in John 3:3, "Unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of heaven."
