Kung, Hans: Christianity and the World Religions Click to View How the two quotes appears in "Should you believe in the Trinity", Watchtower, JW's booklet. "Catholic theologian Hans Küng observes in his book Christianity and the World Religions that the Trinity is one reason why the churches have been unable to make any significant headway with non-Christian peoples.

452: Pentecostal tries to defend manifestions with Scripture
A leading Pentecostal tries to explain and defend from the Bible the wild manifestations seen in their assemblies and revivals! A refutation of the tract called, "What's Going On? An Extraordinary Visitation of God!" By Dr. Shirley A. Elenbaas of White Horse Christian Center. This tract was picked up in February 98 in the "Toronto Blessing" tract rack! But first note these quotations: John Wimber actually said: "There's nothing in Scripture that supports these kinds of phenomena that I can see, and I can't think of anything throughout the church age that would,' Wimber writes. 'So I feel no obligation to try to explain it. It's just ... We appreciate and applaud Shirley A. Elenbaas for making this brave and rare attempt to justify the unbiblical manifestations seen throughout Pentecostalism!

453: Sola Scriptura: Scripture tells us John wrote the fourth Gospel ...
If the earliest, universal oral tradition clearly states that Paul wrote the book of Hebrews, why does the Roman Catholic church question this tradition to this day? (The Orthodox, are at least consistent in accepting this tradition, not that they are correct.) All this question about who wrote Hebrews, should embarrass the Roman Catholic church who says by its own inspired, God given authority, determined the 27 book canon. They claim that Rome determined Hebrews was inspired, yet never could say for certain who wrote the book. If knowing who wrote the fourth gospel is so important, they why is knowing who wrote Hebrews any less important? B. Apostle John wrote the fourth gospel: "The disciple whom Jesus loved = John" Scripture does not explicitly say who wrote the fourth gospel, but scripture does clearly reveal that John is the author when you take all the Bible verses together. Several Bible texts that clearly show us John is the author because John is the disciple whom Jesus ... ...

Its membership application (1994) says 'I subscribe to the objects and rules of the Humanist Society of Victoria in order to create a society in which a person may reach their full potential free from supernatural beliefs'. It's difficult to believe that anyone could honestly claim that his book was respectful to religion and not anti-Christian when it's full of puerile mocking of the Scripture, which Jesus said "cannot be broken" (John 10:35).

The developed 12th century "Athanasius creed" version of trinity doctrine is not found in scripture, but that is not the issue.

477: Carpenter, Edward: The Origins of Pagan and Christian Beliefs
The Origins of Pagan and Christian Beliefs Edward Carpenter 1920 1996 "And when at the Council of Nicea (325 AD) it [the early church] endeavored to establish an official creed, the strife and bitterness only increased." "-the Nicean creed had nothing to propound except some extremely futile speculations about the relation to each other of the Father and the Son, and the relation of both to the Holy Ghost," (The Origins of Pagan and Christian Beliefs, Edward Carpenter, quoted by anti-Trinitarians) What they fail to tell you Carpenter trashes the whole of Christianity, arguing that all of Christian faith was borrowed from the pagans!

478: Is your home built with Bible Blueprints?
Everything the architect had drawn was perfect and without flaw, but he provided an incomplete set of blueprints for the builders. Now in our parable, God is the architect of the church and we are the builders. God has provided man with a set of blueprints... the Holy Bible. (Heb 8:5 & 1 Cor 3:10-11) They are the pattern of doctrine and worship for the church. But are the blueprints complete? Did God provide a complete set of blueprints or are we left to guess? Is the Bible complete enough to be considered an all sufficient guide? Jesus made this promise to the apostles in Jn 16:13, "But when He, the Spirit of truth, comes, He will guide you into all the truth". The apostles were inspired directly by the Holy Spirit and thus we have all the truth in the New Testament. This fulfills the very promise that Jesus made to them. Isn't it great to know that we have a permanent written unchangeable record of all the truth in the pages of the Bible. The last book of the Bible to be written was ... ...

483: Why Are There So Many Different Churches?
Down through the centuries, it has always been a tendency of mankind to attempt to improve upon God's divine plan, and in so doing to depart from God's way. In the book of Proverbs Solomon said, "There is a way that seemeth right unto man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." This tendency was true in the days of King ... Paul made the coming departure from the New Testament pattern even clearer if possible, when he described the end of the world in these words. "Let no man deceive you by any means, for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first" II Thess. 2:3. It was not long after the days of the Apostles that these prophecies began to be fulfilled. First one item then another was altered to fit the times. These changes in the New Testament pattern were very gradual, so much so that no one generation became very concerned about them, but eventually they produced religious organizations that were often as different from the New Testament church as day is from ... ...

In the Bible, overseers therefore, are not a power unto themselves over the congregation as we see in most denominations.
