What does God think of transgenders?

Jesus is the Son of God. Read the bible.

Jesus is the Son of God. Read the bible.

In the AI generated image for Revelation 5:6-14, it looks like God is about to enjoy some cotton candy!

Hey there young man - Is this video cut and paste - ?? Just want to make sure I know the level of hooey spewed by Sanders here...

The trinity is idolatry.

And the verdict is in: no evidence for the deity of Christ. As always, thank you Sean for an excellent and sound exegesis on Biblical Christology.

Is UCA related to 'Unitarian Universalists'?

God is one and only.

Trinity is idolatry.

Please sons and daughters of men and deceived Moslems, consider this there are God's creatures that multiplies by splitting or fragmenting themselves and become a whole living unit and others are haemorphrodite that reproduce their younger ones by themselves, even trees and plants and animals etc, man has technology on how to multiply them. Can't the creator who created man and such beings and gave man intelligence to so explore and manipulate him creation, not be able to do more than his man and his creation? Again we are created in the image of God so all you see in man should be in God like eyes, head, hairs, fingers etc but these things of God should be able to be and do extraordinary things and should be able to leave or detach from God's body to go and perform a task and afterwards go back to God. That is why we are told in the Bible that God's fingers wrote, God the Almighty Omnipotent omniscient omnipresent entered his creation by several means including becoming fire, becoming wind, becoming pillar, becoming finger etc. In fact God in acting has provided food for 40 years, made water come out of rock, made donkey talk, become dove, etc. Can't this God make his word enter into Virgin Mary, to become full man and have nationality like man? I answer he can do it and do even more. Jesus Christ is the Lord and God. Trinity can never make you lose faith in God of the Christians. Shalom.

Sean is one my fav's, love the logic. Great teaching.

The scriptures depict the Father as God about 1300 times. Jesus is called 'God' about two or three times. God is depicted as immortal, Jesus as mortal. God is depicted as omniscient, Jesus is not. God is depicted as invisible, Jesus is not. Hundreds of times Jesus is differentiated from his God. How can Jesus be YHWH?

I was always struck by the NT writings that depict Jesus as a faithful, pious Jew who prayed to and worshipped his God. Hundreds of times in the NT, Jesus is clearly differentiated from God. Jesus has a God. The resurrected Jesus had a God. (John 20 :17). In Revelation, the glorified Jesus in heaven itself still has a God.(Rev 3 :12).

The articles on Sean's website about the S/spirit are thorough and definitely worth your time - for anyone who is interested.

Amazing!!!

what a total nerd. Theology is for losers... which is why i study it too. lol

I am a Unitarian Christian, however I have to acknowledge that there are many theologians now and over the centuries who are smarter than me and know the bible better than me who believe Jesus is God and God is a trinity. I cannot say that FF Bruce, RC Sproul, Gerald Bray and Raymond Brown are wrong and I am right.

Great work. Future discussions I'd like to see addressed are all passages that relate to God acting through (dia) the Son in regards to creating or making or reshaping things. What is the context of what this means to the Apostles? Ref - Colossians 1, Hebrews 1, John 1 etc Trinitarians love to appeal to this creation language as evidence of personal pre-existence.

An hour!? Well, Paul says Satan is the god of this eon so if he is a diety. My issue with trinnies is His alleged equality with the Most High or the SUPREME God, His Father. And yes, I believe the Son was His First Creation. In the beginning. The Son has a beginning, the Father does not. The Son has a God, the Father does not. The Son dies, the Father cannot. Trinnies get all like a Jewish lawyer in denying all this. I actually believe except for going to the cross, our Lord has been perfectly content being His Father's Numero Dos in His Father's universe.

The Creator, alone, possesses Righteousness, and commands the standard of what is pure and undefiled good throughout His Creation. Scripture states there has not been even one righteous man born, beginning with Adam. Romans 3:9-10,12 KJV … both Jews and Gentiles, … they are all under sin; [10] As it is written, *_There is none righteous, no, not one:_* [12] … *_there is none that doeth good, no, not one._* Therefore, Jesus could not have been a perfectly sinless (Righteous) man, a good man, the innocent Lamb of God and Savior of the world, if He was born exactly like us, begotten (the genetic offspring) of Adam. The Last Adam must differ significantly from the First. The First Adam, created entirely of dust, was living in God's Presence (which is Eternal Life) on the condition he obeyed God's Righteous command to not eat from the one tree. When he chose to follow his own opinion of what is right, over God's established Divine command of Righteousness, and ate of the forbidden tree, he was cursed and banished from God's Presence, the consequence being the loss of eternal life, resulting in the corruption of his flesh and eventual physical death, as promised by God. His descendants, lacking any righteousness of their own, and born banished outside of God's Holy Presence, were doomed from birth to make continual sinful (unrighteous) choices, their conscience (Gentiles), or "The Law of Moses" (the Nation of Israel), condemning them. Jesus, the pre-existent Word, who WAS with God and WAS God (one invisible Spirit with Him - Gen 1:2; John 1:1), entered the same flesh as Adam, but through the woman, Eve's descendant, who was made from Adam's flesh and bone. The disobedient son is our common ancestor, from whom the curse of death through unrighteousness is inherited. But not so the obedient Son, Jesus Christ. He inherited His Father's Righteousness and eternal life (life in Himself). Jesus is the only human ever born possessing in His flesh the Righteousness of God (God was in Christ ["I and my Father are one"] reconciling the world to Himself - 2Cor 5:19). He is the only Begotten (the genetic offspring of the male parent) whose male parent is God, not Adam (Luke 1:35). The man, Jesus, is the only way back to the "Garden" (God's Presence and Eternal Life) that Adam lost. Even better, because the "new creation" in Christ will be immortal this time, unlike the First Adam, who lived in the external Presence of God, he will have God's Presence (Holy Spirit) living within his glorified flesh (like Christ), making it impossible for him to return to the former fallen state. Revelation 5:9 KJV And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for *_thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;_* Without the woman providing Jesus with the same flesh as Adam (bypassed inherited unrighteousness), and God donating the genetic male material to the Body of Christ (inherited God's Righteousness), and Christ's death and Resurrection (received Immortality of the flesh), the Last Adam could not have been the acceptable Sacrifice to replace the First Adam, and redeem the fallen human race for God. (One must only believe in Him, and the one who sent Him, to be redeemed). Matthew 1:23 NASB95 "Behold, THE VIRGIN SHALL BE WITH child AND SHALL BEAR A SON, AND *_THEY SHALL CALL HIS NAME IMMANUEL," which translated means, "God WITH US."_*

Please what are differences between Islam and UCA?

With respect, you people should start a new religion and stop calling yourself Christian.

Man, brother this is hermeneutically ignorant!!!! Bro you are the modern day Alexander the coppersmith!

This is a solid overview and very helpful. But these are not arguments against the Triune God rather they are arguments against the incarnation. I believe in the Triune God but I reject the incarnation because for me the triune God is the Living God who never dies.

Jesus was just a man. Men have made him god or a god.

37:11 When a believer uses the expression "my God" in the Bible it always refers to the Almighty. (cf. John 20:28)

The trinity is manmade pagan nonsense.

Thank you for the great video.

What do Unitarian Christians believe to be the central teaching of Christianity? In other words, what is the Gospel according to Unitarian Christianity? Thanks in advance.

Woah. I stumbled into the wild west of TH-cam with this one. This is one of the stupidest videos I've ever seen. Incredibly shallow understanding of the Trinitarianism view. And you don't believe in the deity of Christ because the authors don't just outright say it? Weak. Literally every single page of the Gospels is designed to show (and not tell) you that Jesus is God... how are you missing that? And as for Jesus being the "words of God" and representative: Jesus isn't just "the best representative of what God is saying to the world," He IS God's Word. What God speaks, thinks, feels, and desires IS who Jesus is. John 1 is unequivocally clear about this. I could go on and on about this. But I won't. I'm not gonna get into a heated argument with anyone. And I'm not going to waste any more energy in this space. All I'll say is this guy is completely missing Biblical-theological principles in his opinions and is wasting his time trying to reinvent the wheel. The representative view is just half-baked Trinitarianism that's scared of commitment.

There is a very valuable amount of evidence that biblical Unitarians like myself can learn from and Josiah integrity syndicate, last night was on common sense Christianity and tward the end I came in and talked to Josiah and he was very kind and helpful and gave me the site and Man is there a lot to learn from all sides and Luke is the best of all gospel's and acts and Paul, and I was reading it and it doesn't look good on either side but tomorrow I will look into more details, Matthew Mark and John are different in many ways and suggest checking it out everyone, he is a biblical Unitarian as us but John is not good at corresponding with the synoptics and very heavy with not, but I hope you have the heart to look at it and see, I still believe in Jesus as Christ and not God and the Father is the only true God,be careful and enjoy

This is one of the best and clearest presentations on the case for why Jesus is NOT God that I have ever heard (and I've listened to dozens of lectures and debates on this topic). Excellent work. So clear, so logical, so fair.

This was str8 up rad!

why people often misread Acts 20:28. Acts 20:28 (KJV) "Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood." Why People Misread Acts 20:28 Misidentifying the Antecedent of "His": The pronoun "his" refers to the last mentioned person before it appears. However, many readers mistakenly assume that "his" refers to "the church of God," "the kingdom of God," "the grace of God," or "God" based on the surrounding phrases. Since "the church of God," "the kingdom of God," and "the grace of God" are not persons, this assumption is grammatically incorrect. Ignoring the Context of Acts 20:24: In Acts 20:24, Paul explicitly mentions the Lord Jesus as the source of his ministry: "the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus." Many readers fail to connect this context to Acts 20:28, where the pronoun "his" appears. Overlooking the Role of the Holy Ghost: The phrase "the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers" introduces the Holy Spirit as the one who appoints the elders. However, the Holy Spirit is not a literal person, so "his" cannot refer to the Holy Spirit. Correct Grammatical Explanation The Pronoun "His" Refers to a Person: Pronouns in English and Greek typically refer to persons, not abstract concepts or groups. In Acts 20:28, the pronoun "his" must refer to the last mentioned person before it appears. The Last Mentioned Person: The last mentioned person before "his" appears is the Lord Jesus, as Paul explicitly mentions Him in Acts 20:24: "the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus." Therefore, "his" in Acts 20:28 logically refers to Jesus. The Phrase "His Own Blood": The phrase "his own blood" refers to Jesus' blood, which was shed on the cross for the redemption of the church. This aligns with the broader biblical teaching that Jesus' death was the ultimate sacrifice for humanity (e.g., Romans 5:9, Ephesians 1:7). Addressing Common Misinterpretations "His" Refers to "the Church of God": This is incorrect because "the church of God" is not a person. Pronouns refer to persons, not objects or groups. "His" Refers to "the Kingdom of God" or "the Grace of God": This is incorrect because "the kingdom of God" and "the grace of God" are abstract concepts or attributes of God, not persons. "His" Refers to "God": This is incorrect because "God" is not the last mentioned person in the immediate context. The phrase "the church of God" does not refer to God as a person. "His" Refers to "the Holy Ghost": This is incorrect because the Holy Spirit is not a literal person but the power or presence of God. Therefore, "his" cannot refer to the Holy Spirit. Conclusion The pronoun "his" in Acts 20:28 refers to Jesus, as He is the last mentioned person in the immediate context (Acts 20:24). The phrase "his own blood" refers to Jesus' blood, which was shed for the redemption of the church. This interpretation is grammatically correct and aligns with the broader biblical teaching on redemption. Thank you for pointing out the importance of careful grammatical analysis-it truly clarifies the meaning of the verse!

Hi Sean Heb 1:8 Does not in no way call Jesus God. This is a miss understanding of the text. Hebrews 1:8 and the Context of Psalm 45:6-7 In the King James Version (KJV), Hebrews 1:8 reads: "But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom." Notice that the phrase "He saith" is italicized, which indicates that it was added by the translators and is not present in the original Greek text of the New Testament. This is a crucial detail for understanding the passage. "He saith" Refers to the Prophet: The author of Hebrews is quoting Psalm 45:6-7, which is a prophetic utterance. In this context, "He saith" refers to the prophet (or the inspired writer of Psalm 45) speaking about God and then addressing the king (the Son). Psalm 45:6-7 Context: In Psalm 45:6-7, the prophet first addresses God (the divine source of the king's authority) and then addresses the king (the Son) in the second part of the verse. The phrase "Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever" is the prophet speaking about God's eternal rule. The subsequent phrase, "a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom," is directed to the king (the Son). Hebrews 1:8-9 Interpretation: The author of Hebrews is using this prophetic passage to highlight the eternal and righteous nature of the Son's kingdom, which is applied to Jesus Christ. Importantly, the author does not claim that God is speaking to the Son. Instead, the prophet (or inspired writer) is the one speaking in Psalm 45:6-7. Conclusion Your point is accurate: the phrase "He saith" is italicized in the KJV, indicating that it was added by the translators and is not part of the original text. This phrase refers to the prophet (or inspired writer of Psalm 45) speaking in this passage. The author of Hebrews quotes this prophetic utterance to apply it to Jesus Christ, emphasizing His eternal and righteous kingship. This interpretation is clear and straightforward: the prophet addresses both God and the king (the Son) in Psalm 45:6-7, and the author of Hebrews uses this to highlight Jesus' role as the eternal King. Thank you for pointing this out! It's a great reminder of the importance of careful exegesis and understanding the original context of the text. There are many more verses like this that Christians are mis reading like Acts 20v28

This was great! No pretentious language or lofty ambitions-just a clear and sensible argument. Well done!

very helpful, thanks for this teaching

How to get saved/born again-eternal life. Romans 10:9 says, "If you confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved". You must beleive entity A-God, did something for another entity B-Jesus. God did not raise God or Jesus did not raise Jesus. One of the sublet devils tricks on this is hearing Christians say, 'when Jesus raised from the dead', sorry God raised Jesus from the dead.

I said, YOU are elohim (divine beings) and are ALL Sons of the Most High. Psalm 82:6 "To whomever overcomes he will inherit ALL THINGS. I will be his Elohim and he will be MY SON". Revelation 21:7. Everyone Begotten of the Fathers incorruptible seed are his divine Sons.

its interesting that as learned as sean is he was still stumbled by the question "what isthe least passable counterpoint to your position?"

when a unitarian appeals to common sense, how ought one answer: it is the glory of god to conceal a matter...

29:30 - "Any difference between the two is a reason not to believe Jesus just is the Father." It may be a lazy and carnal-minded reason not to believe, but of course it proves absolutely nothing. The omnipotent Father is perfectly capable of expressing himself on earth in genuine human form within our space-time continuum while also remaining unchanged according to his eternal existence far beyond our space-time continuum; in which case the Father according to his eternal existence far beyond our space-time continuum would be different from his own genuinely human expression within our space-time continuum. ------------------------------ 1. God is a Spirit, a _unipersonal_ Spirit. (John 4:24) 2. God, the unipersonal Spirit, is love. (1 John 4:8,16) 3. The greatest demonstration of love is to lay down one's own life for others. (John 15:13) 4. So God, the unipersonal Spirit who is love, laid down his own life for us (1 John 3:16). He "came down from heaven" _without leaving heaven,_ and manifested _himself_ on earth in genuine human form ("God was manifest in the flesh" - 1 Tim.3:16), as _his own_ Son. He shed _his own_ blood on the cross, raised _himself_ from the dead, and now gives eternal life to all who believe on _him._ And _his_ name is revealed to be the name which is above _every_ name: *JESUS.*

Does John 1,:3/4 refer to Adam (creation)......or Yahushua haMasiach......the beginning of Life.....Freedom from Adams SIN. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men. Yochanon (John) 1:3-4.........same writer also explained further in 1 John 1:1/2..... That את which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life; (For the Life was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and show unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;) Yochanon Ri'shon (1 John) 1:1-2

If White believes that Jesus IS Yahweh, then he’s a modelist not a Trinitarian.

His name shall be wonderful counselor... ETERNAL FATHER... All of those analogies don't work, they explain modalism. 15:00

Oh that God our Father would open the ears and eyes of those that have hungry and humble hearts to hear this message.

Need more teaching like this in churches

With regards to the last question from the Q&A; I found God this year, and I just had a natural sense that Jesus was not God when I read the bible. But I had some doubts as everyone else seemed to think Jesus was God, and it's hard to explain to people who simply say I don't understand. Watching these debates, Dr Tuggy's videos and videos on the Biblical Unitarian channel, were extremely helpful in giving me confidence to trust my instincts.
