Hanson, Richard Patrick Crossland: The Search for the Christian ... "A characteristic exegetical ploy of the Arians was to invoke texts in the interests of what might be called 'reductionism', that is to say they would try to reduce the value of the titles given (or thought to be given) to Christ in the Bible by showing that they were also applied in the Bible to quite ordinary people or things. Asterius played this game extensively in a well-known passage: "'Like" (the Son to the Father): well, it is written about us that "man is the image and is the glory of God" (1 Cor 11:7); as for (the Son existing) ."always", it is written "while we live we are always ..." (2 Cor 4:11); as for (the Son being) "in him", (it is written) that "in him we live and move and have our being" (Acts 17:28); as for (the Son being) "unchanging", it is written "nothing shall separate us from the love of Christ" (Rom 8:35).

His reply stressed the spiritual and moral content and pushed the supernatural into the background. He insisted that 'Jesus himself did not assign that critical importance to his miraculous deeds which even the evangelist Mark and the others all had attributed to them.' Harnack saw the essence of Jesus' teaching grouped under three headings; 'Firstly, the kingdom of God and its coming. Secondly, God the Father and the infinite value of the human soul.

Metzger, Bruce M. and Coogan, Michael D., Editors; Daniel N. ... ... The Gospel starts with the affirmation that in the beginning Jesus as Word (see Logos) "was with God and . . . was God" (i.i), and ends (chap. 21 is most likely a later addition) with Thomas's confession of faith to Jesus, "My Lord and my God!"

For the community of John's gospel, these passages provide assurance of the presence and power of God both in the ministry of Jesus and in the ongoing life of the community.

Paul instructs us, in Galatians 5:13: "For brethren we have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another." To express freedom's first limitation more generally, we ask, "Is this good for my soul?" Humans are not bodies that have souls, rather they are spirits that will live somewhere as long as God exists. Where our spirits spend eternity will be influenced by how our activities meet this first limitation. Will this activity create a harmonious situation, is it good for my soul? Abiding within limitation number I is an obligation to ourselves that we must keep. God's second limitation on our freedom is that we must not be mastered by, or brought under, the power of the things we do. Jesus said that no man can serve two masters.

It tells us of His Word, Wisdom. Spirit, of the Messiah He will send, of a Son of Man and a Suffering Servant to come.

Decrees followed in which the king forbade Jews to observe the commandments of the Torah and ordered them to violate its prohibitions; the king appointed officials to enforce the decrees. On 15 Kislev (6 December), 167 B.C.E., an "abomination of desolation" was set up in the temple; sacrifices there to the abomination began on 25 Kislev. After paying brief respect to the brave but suicidal efforts of pious Jews to disobey the king's decrees, the author introduces the aged priest Mattathias, father of five sons: John, Simon, Judas, Eleazar, and Jonathan.

Newman, John Henry: Essay on the Development of Christian Doctrine ... The Catholic Truth in question is made up of a number of separate propositions, each of which, if maintained to the exclusion of the rest, is a heresy. In order then to prove that all the Antenicene writers taught the dogma of the Holy Trinity, it is not enough to prove that each still has gone far enough to be only a heretic not enough to prove that one has held that the Son is God (for so did the Sabellian, so did the Macedonian) and another that the Father is not the Son (for so did the Arian) and another that the Son is equal to the Father (for so did the Tritheist) and another that there is but One God (for so did the Unitarian) not enough that many attached in some sense a Threefold Power to the idea of the Almighty (for so did almost all the heresies that ever existed, and could not but do so, if they accepted the New Testament at all); but we must show that all these statements at once, and others too, are laid down by as many separate testimonies as may fairly be taken to ... ... https://www.bible.ca/trinity/trinity-Newman.htm

Trinity proof texts: John 1:1 ... 1 Pe 4:11, "theos" is found twice, once with the definite article and once without, yet the NWT renders all of them as simply "God" not "a god" In 2 Cor 4:4, "theos" is used of Satan WITH the definite article, yet the NWT renders this verse, as "the god" If we follow the grammatical rules of the NWT, is Satan Jehovah? It is obvious, then that the Watchtower knows it is translating on theological bias, not "Greek rules".

Teens! Use Your Freedom Wisely! ... Paul instructs us, in Galatians 5:13: "For brethren we have been called unto liberty; only use not liberty for an occasion to the flesh, but by love serve one another." To express freedom's first limitation more generally, we ask, "Is this good for my soul?" Humans are not bodies that have souls, rather they are spirits that will live somewhere as long as God exists. Where our spirits spend eternity will be influenced by how our activities meet this first limitation. Will this activity create a harmonious situation, is it good for my soul? Abiding within limitation number I is an obligation to ourselves that we must keep. God's second limitation on our freedom is that we must not be mastered by, or brought under, the power of the things we do. Jesus said that no man can serve two masters. Thus, servants of Christ must never serve other things. But you say, "I will not be slave to anyone or anything, I shall be free".
