351: Development of Trinity Doctrine from the Old to the New Testament
Trinity is merely one of a long list of doctrines that developed between the Old Testament and the New Testaments. Only the unlearned would deny this. Jehovah's Witnesses are part of a modern religious movement that teaches a false doctrine called, "New light". They base this on a very bad interpretation of Proverbs 4:18. They use this "new light" excuse every time they find out they made another false prediction of the end of the world, or to explain why the watchtower Magazine once endorsed JW's actually celebrating Christmas! Now here is their hypocrisy: Jehovah's Witnesses believe that God, even in the 21st century, is revealing new doctrines, or clarifying old ... Meanwhile, thousands of Jehovah's Witnesses are also deceived. The Essenes and even the disciples, incorrectly expected the messiah to deliver the Jews from Roman domination and restore an independent Jewish nation, (Acts 1:6) yet they were clearly mistaken about this role of the Messiah because Jesus came and ... ...

353: What does the Bible say about heaven?
The garden of Eden was originally intended to be the eternal dwelling place of man. When man sinned against God, Man was cast out of the garden. The entire hope of mankind it to be permitted to live once again in the physical garden paradise. God will restore the garden on a global basis and there "the faithful" will live a physical existence forever upon the earth. Advocates of this view deny that man has a soul. Their physical view of heaven is therefore a logical outgrowth of their doctrine on the soul. (Jw's, Armstrong, Adventists, Christadelphians etc.) B.

356: Pope Offers Catholics Time Out Of Purgatory By Y2K Indulgences
However, when you read the Bible "from cover to cover" you will never read of a thing called "indulgences." It is purely a tradition of man, established by man's authority, not from God in heaven (Mt 15:1-9; cf., Acts 8:18-24; 1 Jn 1:10; Js 5:16). Moreover, there is no such thing as purgatory. Again, we submit that nowhere in God's inspired word will one find the doctrine that says people leave this world and enter purgatory to cleanse themselves before they get to heaven. Rather, the Bible teaches that upon our death, we will either go to paradise or torments, and can never cross over to the other, to await the final judgment (Lk 16:19-31). Further, the article mentioned "rosary" and "stations of the cross," two things which are not as the oracles of God (1 Pet 4:11). It is worth noting that Martin Luther was right to rebel against the Catholic church and its teachings, but he went FROM BABYLON PAST JERUSALEM TO EGYPT. His disgust for Catholic perversions drove him to an equally ... ...

358: Paine, L. L., A Critical History Of The Evolution Of Trinitarianism
text of Jewish monotheism: 'Hear, O Israel, the Lord our God is one God.'" (L. L. Paine, A Critical History Of The Evolution Of Trinitarianism, p 4, as quoted in, Should you believe the Trinity?, Watchtower publication) Our comment: Although Paine is a Bible trasher, much of what he says in irrelevant to the discussion, as Trinitarians agree that there was a progression of doctrine from the Old to the New Testaments. In the same way that final resurrection and judgement were not present in the Old Testament but expanded in the New, so too with the doctrine of God. After all Gen 1 says, "Let us make man in Our image". So the seeds of trinity are clearly present! Paine was a Bible trasher, who rejected inspiration of God's Word! [The Bible's] "presuppositions of a divine miraculous origin and character, differentiating the Bible from all other religious literature, can no longer be admitted. Historically considered, the Bible is simply a literary product of the Hebrew and Jewish nation... ...

Although the vast library was discovered in 1853 AD, it took many years to translate the Akkadian Cuneiform text.

374: Development from the trinity as taught in the Bible and the trinity ...
... Trinity is used in this quote to refer to the creedal definition of the trinity of the Nicene era 325 AD. All theologians (except for Arians/Jw's and modernists) agree that the New Testament and the earliest Christians viewed Jesus as God. Although Christians correctly says that the "Nicene concept of Trinity" is not in the Bible, they would say that early Christians and the scriptures clearly taught that Jesus was both pre-existent and fully divine! The deception is in creating a false dilemma that attempts to say: If Nicene trinity is not taught in the Bible then that proves the Bible doesn't teach Jesus is divine. But we could just as easily say this to Jw's: "The doctrine of the prohibition against blood transfusions did not form part of the apostles' preaching, as this is reported in the New Testament, but developed only in the 20 century, when transfusions were invented!" "The doctrine the church being governed from one world headquarters did not form part of the apostles' ... ...

380: The Incarnation of God, the Son: Jesus Christ

If Jesus emptied himself of nothing except himself, what else could such a transition imply? Apart from utterly destroying the natural reading of the text, that Jesus gave up the form of God and equality with God at the incarnation, it provides no defense against the Arians who site scriptures that Jesus was in fact not equal to the Father (in rank) while he walked the earth.

383: Sola Scriptura: Mistakes made by the Apostolic Fathers based ...
Clark Carlton explains how Justin's wrong view was used against the church: "Arius was a presbyter of the Church of Alexandria in the early fourth century. The controversy began with his interpretation of Proverbs 8:22ff., where Solomon speaks of Wisdom: The Lord created Me at the beginning of His work, the first of His acts of old (RSV). Everyone, both Orthodox and Arian, understood Wisdom to be Christ. The question was, what does this verse mean. Arius' answer was that the Logos is a creature, albeit the highest, noblest, and best of creatures. Those who sought to uphold the Orthodox doctrine that Christ is the uncreated Son of God had to deal with Arius' interpretation ... What it proves, is that tradition doesn't work, because most Trinitarians today, including the Roman Catholic church, do not apply Prov 8:22 to Christ any more. Although Carlton is wrong when he says the "Orthodox" merely started to apply the text to the "humanity of Christ, not to His divinity", there were some who ... ...
