james white vs Dr brown is always a good debate to watch but watching Dr brown and james white on the same side is like watching the avengers come together lol.

Isaiah 45 (KJV) ²¹ Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me. ²² Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. “For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.” - Isaiah 54:5 (KJV) Psalms 22 (KJV) ¹⁶ For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet. ¹⁷ I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me. ¹⁸ They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. “And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.” - Zechariah 12:10 (KJV) “And he saw that there was no man, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.” - Isaiah 59:16 (KJV) “But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.” - Micah 5:2 (KJV) “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel; for he hath visited and redeemed his people,” - Luke 1:68 (KJV) John 1 (KJV) ¹ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ¹⁴ And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. “I and my Father are one.” - John 10:30 (KJV) “And he that seeth me seeth him that sent me.” - John 12:45 (KJV) John 14 (KJV) ⁶ Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. ⁷ If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him. ⁸ Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. ⁹ Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? “Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.” - John 8:58 (KJV) “In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.” - 2 Corinthians 4:4 (KJV) “For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.” - 2 Corinthians 4:6 (KJV) “To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.” - 2 Corinthians 5:19 (KJV) Colossians 1 (KJV) ¹⁵ Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature: ¹⁶ For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: ¹⁷ And he is before all things, and by him all things consist. “Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high;” - Hebrews 1:3 (KJV) “For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.” - Colossians 2:9 (KJV) “Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us: and we ought to lay down our lives for the brethren.” - 1 John 3:16 (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.” - Acts 20:28 (KJV) “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.” - 1 Timothy 3:16 (KJV) “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:” - Matthew 28:19 (KJV) “And that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.” - Luke 24:47 (KJV) “Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.” - Acts 2:38 (KJV) “Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.” - Acts 4:12 (KJV) “But when they believed Philip preaching the things concerning the kingdom of God, and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, both men and women.” - Acts 8:12 (KJV) “(For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.)” - Acts 8:16 (KJV) “And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord.

The important point there is you can differ *sharply* on more peripheral issues, but Christians will agree on *central* doctrines touching the heart of the Gospel itself.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God John 1:1... the word and God are described as distinct separate persons and yet both Identified as God.....
Eric Velez , Am I the only one whom can understand grammatical english???? The text says the Word *was* God, past tense. To prove your point I would need to read the Word is God.
I read the scriptures provided and I don't see your point, The God mentioned is clearlythe Father, the scriptures you presented are talking about two separate beings one God the father and the other the Son of God read carefully . Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ; 2 Peter 1:1-2 1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, Romans 9:5 Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen. Revelation 1:6 and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father--to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen. Here in Revelation 1:6 it says that Jesus has a God and Father what is your point?
REVELATION 1:6 and made us a kingdom, priests to *his God and Father*, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. IT SAID HIS GOD AND FATHER, CHRIST HAS A GOD AND A FATHER. I did ADDRESS John 1:1, It says the Word *was* God.
***** , I was using voice command but thankyou for pointing that out, I am busy so I apologize for the short responses, I will elaborate more later....So in the KJV it says "God and His Father". Even though pretty much every other bible version says "His God and Father", all of those are all wrong?...I will go with the KJV then just for you brother. Rev.1:6 in The KJV is stating God has a Father.Revelation 1:6 (KJV) And hath made us kings and priests unto *God and his Father*; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. SO CLEARLY THIS TEXT IS SAYING *GOD HAS A FATHER*....RIGHT???
***** , I have read the information you have provided carefully, it has taken me almost four days. Now concerning 1 Jn.5:7, The text says there are three that testify, indicating the subject matter of the verse concerns a united witness between these three and there is no reason one should suppose it would imply anything else. 1 John 5:7 literally says, "and these three are one." The very next verse, concerning the Spirit and the water and the blood, literally says, "the three are unto the one" also translated "these three agree in one."meaning these too have a common and united testimony,witness. To be consistent, the Trinitarian advocate of 1 John 5:7 should also then conclude these three, the water, the Spirit, and the blood, are also a Trinity of one being. It is quite reckless to interpret this text as declaring the Father, Word and Holy Spirit are one God when all the verse says is the three are a united witness, one testimony. The oneness in question is a oneness of purpose and function, United in the record they bear, not a oneness of identity or ontology and substance of being. In other words, the three, the Father, the Word, and the Spirit are in one united agreement concerning their witness/testimony. In a similar sense, Jesus prayed for this same unity of oneness between himself the Father and the church. We would not therefore assume these three are "God" or "One God." John 17:20-23 I do not pray for these only, but also for those who believe in me through their word, *that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you*, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory which thou hast given me I have given to them, *that they may be one just as we are one*, I in them and you in me, that they may become *perfectly one*. As we can see, Jesus prayed that he and the Father and all the disciples would be *one*. Shall we then suppose all these are God??? Of course not. And there is not reason to do so with 1 Jn.5:7 either. Both of these passages, John 17:20-23 and 1 John 5:7, are referring to function, not substance of being. This passage simply does not suggest a Triune God even if it was valid. It simply says that there are three who testify and these three are one. It also says the Spirit, water, and blood are one in the same sense. Neither of the two groups of three are to be understood one other thing(such as God), but as one unified testimony.
I am going to say that the Trinitarian side seems much more unified, well spoken and well studied. But let us all remember that a well presented argument does not always equal the truth. Please let us keep studying the Word of God for ourselves with humility and open, obedient hearts. God will never leave a true seeker in the dark.
@@jacquesvoigt8239 jacques... but where was (in scripture) the first baptism ever recorded... take in mind that these churches in the new testament were not trinitarian, but unicitarian.... they didn't see God as a trinity but as a God w/ diverse manifestations.... so please... if its not in the scripture, then you guys are obligated to tell us WHAT CHURCH (outside the Biblical margin) baptized in the three names (or holy trinity).... IT WAS THE CATHOLIC CHURCH RIGHT?
@@jesus7es7dios7 “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the NAME [singular, my emphasis] of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit...” - Matthew 28:19 Boom.
@@michaeldukes4108 Matthew 28:19 is not an effectuated baptism... its the COMMISSION given by Jesus... Where in the scripture did such type of baptism occurred? in which of the seven churches in the Bible... or by which Apostle or Disciple in the Bible?....
Colossians 1:13-18 and Colossians 2:2-10 are very clear on the deity of Christ. This is why Paul wrote this letter to Colossae- there were wolves who had come into the church there speaking heresies about the nature of Christ. (I think it was the Gnostic's)
This is not correct. The problem for the earliest believers wasn't whether Jesus was divine, but whether he was man. Pagans in the roman territories had zero problem with Jesus divinity, they struggled with his humanity. Read 1 John 4:2, John makes it obvious which thing the early church struggled with.
Joel Splawn It's true. It's good to see them working together in this case. They just happen to be on the opposite end of most other debates (modern gifts of healing, Calvinism vs Arminianism, etc.) but they fully recognize each other as brothers in Christ. They agree in the essentials of the faith (salvation by grace through faith in Christ, the Trinity, the authority of the Bible as scripture, etc.) but disagree on the "non-essentials" (or adiophra).
I'm a pre-incarnate believing Unitarian . After meditating on the word; Yeshuah is Yahweh . I don't know how , it's complicated but I know the spirit of truth. I am tearing now, truth frees me and brings tears to my eyes.
Scripture>personal emotions. I know it’s hard. May God, the kind and all seeing and knowing Vine dresser, prune us of all deception and incorrect thinking.
I have since changed to orthodox triune God . Either way as long as you understand Jesus is Jehovah in some way or another you're on the right path. Thank you Jesus.
@@Justadudeman22 I am amazed and curious at how you could have come to such a conclusion. Hopefully it’s based on evidence and not emotion. No I can not say he is God literally in any sense. And I think Jesus himself would strongly dislike that as he loved his Father and wanted him to get the rightful attention and importance and dignity he deserves. I can say he was Gods image for us in that he faithfully represented God to us and acted as his vessel, and in this way when we’ve seen him (which really means heard him/seen his actions) we’ve seen the Father.
@@youngknowledgeseeker I am the first and the last I am the shepherd The glory I had with you before the world began Honor me as you honor the father He is sinless , which is impossible considering we are inclined to sin Me and the Father are one Etc etc I saw God face to face (even though that would kill a man, they had to have seen Jesus) I am the rock 🪨 I have received all authority on heaven and earth . That would mean God is sharing His glory (which he does not do) He is the Spirit made flesh , the Word made flesh that dwells among us. Baptize in the name of the Father Son Holy spirit . Again sharing Glory with the Father which the Father does not do . Hear o Israel the Lord our God is one. The word one being Echad which is the same word used for when the man and women become one(same word Echad) flesh. Let Us make man in Our image. It goes on. 3 persons in one being. There are three witnesses in heaven The Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost and these three are one. Over and over sharing Glory with the Son . There is no other savior but God. Jesus is God Jehovah the Father , Son, Holy Spirit . Three persons in one being. God is love , love needs a giver and receiver , one cannot love themselves there is only being . This is all I've learned so far as I have not read the whole bible yet. James white does great debates about it. The spirit of God in the flesh of Jesus is God not the flesh . Human language falls short of explanation of the triune God. I hope you can see from the scripture He is fact the Son of God only begotten(unique) which has shared the glory with the Father since before the world began . It took me a whole year to wrestle with this. Again speaking of wrestling Jacob wrestled with God and broke his bone. Either you take this figuretly or literal if you take it literal jacob had to wrestle with Jesus being in the form of man in order to wrestle with Jacob.
I agree, we need to hear all sides of the debate, which is why I recommend reading “Jesus’ Biological Father was Joseph: According to the New Testament” (DS WAGGONER), too. This cites the birth narratives from the King James Version, then points out how Rome added words and events, and in some cases, superimposed over certain words, to arrive at a Virgin Birth story. If you haven’t read it, it’s mind-bending!
While watching debates it is always quite clear what side God is backing in my opinion. You can see it in the way things are presented, in the clarity, conviction, texts used etc. On the unitarian side you can see to separate men making individual presentations, repeating the same points over again instead of bringing fresh ones or textual supports, and I wont comment on their individual demeanors. On the trinitarian side you see multiple texts, correct use of sources and the original languages, and a tremendous unity between the two. You can see how their presentations flow together seamlessly and are of one thought. United and clear.
Professor James White writes, “We hang a person’s very salvation upon the acceptance of the (Trinitarian) doctrine… We must know, understand, and love the Trinity to be fully and completely Christian” (James White, The Forgotten Trinity, 1998, pp. 14-15). Is it humanly possible from a biblical standpoint to truly understand the Trinity? “It has proved impossible for Christians actually to understand the doctrine or to explain it in any comprehensive way. The doctrine of the Trinity…surpasses our human ability to understand and that must be respected as a divine mystery” (Harold Brown, Heresies: Heresy and Orthodoxy in the History of the Church, 2003, p. 128). Are you confused by the doctrine of the Trinity? Know this, “God is not the author of confusion” (1 Corinthians 14:33). Martin Luther preached, “It is indeed true that the name ‘Trinity’ is nowhere to be found in the Holy Scriptures, but has been conceived and invented by man” (The Sermon’s of Martin Luther, Vol. 3, 1988, p. 406). Where in the Bible does it tell us that you must believe in the Trinity to be saved? “The formal doctrine of the Trinity as it was defined by the great church councils of the fourth and fifth centuries is not to be found in the NT” [New Testament] (The HarperCollins Bible Dictionary, 1996, see “Trinity”). “Many doctrines are accepted by evangelicals as being clearly taught in the Scripture for which there are no proof texts…It is fair to say that the Bible does not clearly teach the doctrine of the Trinity… In fact, there is not even one proof text, if by proof text we mean a verse or passage that clearly states that there is one God who exists as three persons” (Professor Charles Ryrie, Basic Theology, 1999, p. 89). According to history, “There is no evidence that the apostles of Jesus ever heard of the trinity-at any rate from him” (H.G. Wells, The Outline of History, Vol. 2, p. 499). Are we to understand that the Trinitarian doctrine is so important to our salvation that believing the doctrine is essential to receiving eternal life? What of the apostles and disciples who never heard of the Trinity? How could our Lord and Savior neglect such a fundamental truth required for our salvation?
It's amazing that the Unitarians just ignore the holy scriptures. They clearly say Jesus Christ is God is the flesh. Jesus Christ is the great I AM Exodus 3:14---John 8:58. Isaiah 9:6, Isaiah 44:6, Zechariah 12:10, Zechariah 14:9, Acts 20:28, John 1:1, John 1:14, John 2:18-21, Matthew 1:23, 1 John 1:1-2 Eternally existed with the Father, Genesis 1:26, Genesis 3:22 no angels involved here, Hebrews 8:10, Hebrews 1:8-10, Revelation 1:8, Revelation 1:11, Revelation 2:2, 22:12-13, 1 Timothy 3:16, Jude 1:25, John 20:28, Titus 2:13. And i could keep going on and on the triune nature of God. Jesus Christ is God in the flesh, and no has refuted Dr. Brown or Dr. White. Also, some of the Unitarians comments are mind boggling. You're blind to the Holy Scriptures, and I'm not saying that to be mean, but it's true. Read all of the Holy Scriptures!
Trust Jesus Yes brother, I agree. Not only Jehovah Witnesses, but Mormons, HRM, etc. It's mind boggling that People reject the triune of God, its everywhere in the Holy Scriptures. You might have already done this, but next time you talk to a Jehovah Witness, show them John 2:18-22, and you can even use their bible, it's another Trinity or Godhead verse. I see it everywhere, that more people are denying the Lord Jesus Christ's deity, and the triune nature of God, but I think it's part of the great falling way talked about in the book of Thessalonians. Peoples excuses are, The Trinity came from the RCC, and that's so ridiculous. Jesus said himself he is the great I AM, Exodus 3:14----John 8:58. God bless brother, Keep fighting the good fight.
The point of the New Testament isn’t that Jesus is God, but that he is the Anointed one of God. Perhaps you should re read the Gospels, while asking yourself honestly who they are teaching that Jesus is.
1 Corinthians 15:20-29 explains the authority given to Jesus by YHWH and that it doesn't include YHWH and that Jesus will bow to YHWH when he is finished doing his Fathers will. Deut 18:18-19 explains the word being God. Not Jesus. Genesis 1:26 YHWHs speaking to/about Adam and Eve that is the only time he uses plural form when speaking about making mankind. Only YHWH rested on day seven... Where's Jesus just one day later? Or on day 5,4,3,2,1 All scripture you referenced can be refuted by scripture in context. Keep in mind the shema, Deut 6:5 always when reading Scripture. Don't forget Numbers 23:19!👍 May YHWH bless you! 🙏

Who can forgive sins but God alone?” John 14:11 11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves. (Disciples calling Jesus God in the GOSPELS and some letters) John 20:28 28 And Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!” Matthew 13:51 51 Jesus said to them, “Have you understood all these things?” They said to Him, “Yes, Lord.” Matthew 14:28 28 And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.” Titus 2:13 looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 2 Peter 1:1 Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ Philippians 2:5:11 5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. 9 Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. John 1:1&14 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God& John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

I'm not including the once where the apostles called Jesus God in their letters.) _______________________ Jesus said He is the Son of God. John 3:16-18 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 18 “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 17:1-3 17 Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, 2 as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. 3 And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. John 9:35-38 35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had found him, He said to him, “Do you believe in the Son of God?" 36 He answered and said, “Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?” 37 And Jesus said to him, “You have both seen Him and it is He who is talking with you.” 38 Then he said, “Lord, I believe!” And he worshiped Him. Mark 14:61-62 61 But He kept silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?” 62 Jesus said, “I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.” Matthew 26:63-64 63 But Jesus kept silent. And the high priest answered and said to Him, “I put You under oath by the living God: Tell us if You are the Christ, the Son of God!” 64 Jesus said to him, “It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.” Matthew 16:15-17 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. Luke 22:70 70 Then they all said, “Are You then the Son of God?” So He said to them, “You rightly say that I am.” John 5:23 23 that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him. John 6:67-69 67 Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” 68 But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69 Also we have come to believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” ____ GOD calling Jesus His Son Mark 1:9-11 9 It came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove. 11 Then a voice came from heaven, “You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Mark 9:7 7 And a cloud came and overshadowed them; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!” Matthew 3:17 17 And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Luke 3:22 And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”
“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.” Hebrews 1:8 KJV
Michael James Go to Psalm 45 from which is that quote and you will see for yourself who said that as it seems you are pretty confused thinking that God said about the Son the is God.
@@michaeljames5881 Look. If you believe that Son of God can be God at the same time, you don't have a problem only with sticking to Jesus's preaching but also with logic.
@@michaeljames5881 Amen! Jesus called himself the Alpha and the Omega. The Father said the same thing in the old testament. Why do people want to be right. It's about what is written. Just believe! Jesus will set you free but you must believe!
these non trinitarians are really not lead by the Spirit and are so misinformed. And they keep referencing books outside the Holy Scriptures to make their points. Lord help them .
Neither does referencing nothing but the New Testament, which was written long after Jesus was here. There is a reason Judaism is monotheistic and is the earliest scriptures on God. Dont let Western interpretations skew your view.
Did you even watch the debate? They made dozens of scriptural references. On top of that, to say someone is not lead by the Spirit is bad but somehow makes you think you're spiritually superior.
I just debated a foremost Trinitarian. The Scripture was clearly on my side, so he kept trying to get me to look at commentaries. He had no answer for the questions I asked him. The center of the debate was around John 17:5. John 17:5 is clearly talking about God's foreknowledge of the suffering servant and his subsequent glorification. To show this, I had him look at John 17:24, which uses similar language, and then at 1 Peter 1:20, which uses the same language as in John 17:24, and 1 Peter 1:20 clearly says that the Son was foreknown, and the same Greek word that means foreknown in 1 Peter 1:20 is also used in Romans 8 to refer to believers that God foreknew. He had no answer for this. He just wanted me to read commentaries on John 17:5, which, of course, are Trinitarian and thus agree with him. If you have a strictly Scriptural debate, you will find that the Trinity is not Scriptural. I've studied all of the verses on this, and if anyone has questions, please ask. Also, I do believe that Jesus is the incarnation of God. But there was not eternally a distinct person called God the Son. That is not found anywhere.
You are correct. These people who quote a verse or two to support their argument have not considered all the verses that say the opposite. A balanced approach is to look at all the verses on a particular subject that are interpreted one way or another, and then to harmonize all the verses. If nine out of ten verses agree on one thing, then the one out of ten verses has to be harmonized, or left on one side until and explanation can be found to bring it into harmony. The overall harmony of the scriptures does not lead teach the pre-existence of Jesus, or the Trinity.
the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” (Rev 1:8). Colossians 1:18 "And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy." In these two verses, the explanation of Alpha and Omega is given. Alpha meaning the firstborn from among the dead, from where the beginning is. And Omega the end of the world, when the mighty God, is to come to judge mankind.. John 5:22"Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son"
@@pozorovatellidi you are making a category error just like the athiests do when they say "Can God create a rock so heavy he can't lift it?" God is the father, the son and the holy spirit. 3 persons one God.
@@aaronquinn6626 No. I'm a Christian and just trying to help by using logic. If Jesus is Son of God, it simply denies his Godship. "Son of God" has a meaning... that the person with this title is not God. Jesus clearly stated that the only true God is Father - his God, our God. Jesus never claimed Godship as it would be not only nonsensical but also against his preaching where he follows Father's will, not own. So... Son of God being God is... 1. a nonsense 2. against Jesus's preaching
Jesus called Himself God Matthew 7:22-23 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’ Mark 2:28 28 Therefore the Son of Man is also Lord of the Sabbath.” Luke 6:46 46 “But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say? Revelation 1:17-18 17 And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me, saying to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last. 18 I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore. Amen. And I have the keys of Hades and of Death. (God calls Himself the First and the Last in Old Testament Isaiah 41:4, 44;6, 48:12.) Matthew 12:8 8 For the Son of Man is Lord even of the Sabbath.”(Sabbath day is God' Deuteronomy 5:14) John 8:58 58 Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.” (God's name is "I AM" Exodus 3:14) John 10:29-30 29 My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand. 30 I and My Father are one.” Matthew 28:19 19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, (God forgives sins in old testament, Jesus can also forgive sins) Mark 2:5-7 5 When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven you.” 6 And some of the scribes were sitting there and reasoning in their hearts, 7 “Why does this Man speak blasphemies like this? Who can forgive sins but God alone?” John 14:11 11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves. (Disciples calling Jesus God in the GOSPELS and some letters) John 20:28 28 And Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!” Matthew 13:51 51 Jesus said to them, “Have you understood all these things?” They said to Him, “Yes, Lord.” Matthew 14:28 28 And Peter answered Him and said, “Lord, if it is You, command me to come to You on the water.” Titus 2:13 looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, 2 Peter 1:1 Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ, To those who have obtained like precious faith with us by the righteousness of our God and Savior Jesus Christ Philippians 2:5:11 5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, 7 but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. 9 Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, 10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, 11 and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. John 1:1&14 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God& John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.

Also way, truth, life is one of 99 names, Jesus called Himself The Way, The Truth, The Life in John 14:6(now mind you these are only the once were Jesus called Himself God in the Gospels and Revelation. I'm not including the once where the apostles called Jesus God in their letters.) _______________________ Jesus said He is the Son of God. John 3:16-18 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17 For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. 18 “He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. John 17:1-3 17 Jesus spoke these words, lifted up His eyes to heaven, and said: “Father, the hour has come. Glorify Your Son, that Your Son also may glorify You, 2 as You have given Him authority over all flesh, that He should give eternal life to as many as You have given Him. 3 And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent. John 9:35-38 35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had found him, He said to him, “Do you believe in the Son of God?" 36 He answered and said, “Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?” 37 And Jesus said to him, “You have both seen Him and it is He who is talking with you.” 38 Then he said, “Lord, I believe!” And he worshiped Him. Mark 14:61-62 61 But He kept silent and answered nothing. Again the high priest asked Him, saying to Him, “Are You the Christ, the Son of the Blessed?” 62 Jesus said, “I am. And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven.” Matthew 26:63-64 63 But Jesus kept silent. And the high priest answered and said to Him, “I put You under oath by the living God: Tell us if You are the Christ, the Son of God!” 64 Jesus said to him, “It is as you said. Nevertheless, I say to you, hereafter you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Power, and coming on the clouds of heaven.” Matthew 16:15-17 15 He said to them, “But who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter answered and said, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” 17 Jesus answered and said to him, “Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. Luke 22:70 70 Then they all said, “Are You then the Son of God?” So He said to them, “You rightly say that I am.” John 5:23 23 that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him. John 6:67-69 67 Then Jesus said to the twelve, “Do you also want to go away?” 68 But Simon Peter answered Him, “Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life. 69 Also we have come to believe and know that You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.” ____ GOD calling Jesus His Son Mark 1:9-11 9 It came to pass in those days that Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee, and was baptized by John in the Jordan. 10 And immediately, coming up from the water, He saw the heavens parting and the Spirit descending upon Him like a dove. 11 Then a voice came from heaven, “You are My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Mark 9:7 7 And a cloud came and overshadowed them; and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, “This is My beloved Son. Hear Him!” Matthew 3:17 17 And suddenly a voice came from heaven, saying, “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.” Luke 3:22 And the Holy Spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, “You are My beloved Son; in You I am well pleased.”
If group of people are working in unity, then it does not mean that they are one in physical nature. They are distinct individuals that work with one purpose
Perhaps I may be wrong here, but i think this holds: What you say may be true in the relationships between people, but should precisely the same logic be applied to God? I don't think so. It's like to be one with the Father means to work perfectly with Him, having the same will, etc. But this is not possible if one is a created being, for God cannot create someone or something which has equal power; there are some things that even an omnipotent God cannot do, like making rock too heavy for Him to lift, or creating a married bachelor. Our wills can be aligned to those of the Father perfectly as it will be in heaven, but this is only through Christ. And if through Christ who is one with the Father I can come to the Father, even when I see Jesus I see the Father, then Jesus is God with the Father. This is by necessity, for it is not created things we are dealing with here, but the very nature of God Himself, who being infinite cannot be known except by someone who is also infinite. This should make sense, but it is very late that I am writing this and it is after all a TH-cam comment. God bless you! (The One God complex in unity as Brown says)
Unity can't be equated to personhood! The Trinitarian theory just creates confusion whereas our God is pretty clear & straightforward! How can there be 1 God in 3 persons and each distinct...and if all three are deities...then it drifts into polytheism! God is monotheistic! How can you have one God submissive to the other! Doesn't make sense! God gave man Creation! To manage & walk with Him in Spirit, Truth & Obedience! Man dropped the ball with his disobedience and ushered sin into a perfect world! God gave us Christ! To redeem & save us to His Glory! And we have distorted the very being of Christ by deifying him. Christ was the perfect son of God that Adam wasn't. He was born of the Spirit to be sinless in this world and not like from the actual lineage of Man to be born in sin.
What I find interesting is.., trinitarians call the Roman Catholic Church false but believe in a vote taken at the council of Naceana for a trinity God. The vote was very close. So, then priest tell uneducated people how to believe. But, people still did not believe on a wide scale, not even close to a majority. Not until around the year 650 ad. Why, hundreds of years of uneducated people just were brainwashed into believing the strong hold of the Roman Catholic Church. Then today preachers still insist on the trinity and how do they explain what was never mentioned in the Bible.., it’s a mystery.., cannot be explained and as a few preachers state.., they don’t want to serve a explainable God. Are you really serious...!!!!!????? Then they try to force down your throat.., if you don’t believe in the trinity.., you’re going to Hell. What they are also saying.., the 1st 650 years after the resurrection that all the people who never believed this, they are all in Hell, maybe 2 billion people. All trinitarian Christians do is throw everyone into Hell. Weird but true, but it turns out trinitarian Christians are the evil doers. How sad...!
This is false. There were around 300 bishops at the Council of Nicaea and only 2 didn't sign the resulting creed. The Trinitarian position was absolutely the overwhelming majority position of the early Church.
@@HomegrownHydra Them signing it doesn't doesn't necessarily mean that they sided with the position, but just that they conceded, under threat of excommunication.

the Unitarianian lost the debate at tape time 52:55 when Dr. Buzzard admitted that the Lord Jesus was called God. the scripture, Psalms 45:6 and its confirmation in Hebrews 1:8 & 9. that was the first mistake, but he compounded his mistake by adding emphasis to the fact, trying to cover up his mistake by calling the Lord Jesus God, he said, "the Lord Jesus have a God over him". that's a dilemma. for if the Lord Jesus is called God, and then have a God over him, then you have TWO GODs. and Dr. Buzzard preach against 2, or 3 Gods as he say, 2 or 3 Yahweh. but here admits two God, one over another God. and that's against scripture, Isaiah 43:10 "Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me”. and Dr. Buzzard states that the WORD, the Messiah came after, or Later when Mary birth him. that in itself nullifies the Unitarianism doctrine, for it violates Isaiah 43:10. for if the Lord Jesus came after, or later on, then Isaiah 43:10 is comprise by saying a "God" was formed "AFTER". NO GOD IS BEFORE, OR "AFTER" HIM. nor is there a God beside him, which comprise the Trinitarian doctrine also, so again, both doctrine is in ERROR. may God bless
Edward Pierce GINOLJC, Oh yes, the Unitarianian lost the debate when Dr. Buzzard admitted that the Lord Jesus was called God in Hebrews 1:8. and he embarrassed himself by applying a God on top of him. how ignorant could he be to make such a statement like that. when one put another God, or god on top of the almighty, that's not only blasphemy, but also polytheistic in nature. so that is the failure of the unitarianian position. It make no difference how many times God is reference to as the father, (whom the Lord Jesus really is, in his natural state Spirit), it takes only one reference to nullify all those other misunderstood, and men wisdom of ignorance reference to the father as God. as I been saying, the Lord Jesus is the "diversity", or the OFFSPRING of himself in flesh. the scriptures, old and new testaments proves that out. but cheer up, because both position unitarianian, and trinitarian positions are in ERROR. the Lord Jesus is God, (the Holy Spirit), the Father, the ROOT, without flesh, Old Testament. and Son, shared, "diversified", in flesh, the OFFSPRING,. hence the terminology, the root and the offspring, the alpha and the omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end, who is the SAME ONE, and ONLY PERSON, the HOLY SPIRIT, (smile).
Re watch the video maybe you will understand..... Your Faith is so based on fear and ignorance....Be present while watching the video not based on your ego or selfishness maybe you will hear the deeper meaning of the debate...
As a former atheist who’s recently been exploring Christianity, this stuff is fascinating. Right now I’m leaning toward the trinity but obviously am open to the truth wherever it comes from.
Anyone who searches for truth must go to Jesus. Do not worry just read the teaching of Jesus and you will know the truth, and Jesus is truth himself. Here is a fact- Jesus denies Trinity!
@Saint DragonThus saith Jehovah, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am Jehovah that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;- Isaiah 44:24 In mark 12:29-30 29Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, Jehovah our God, Jehovah is one. 30 And you shall love Jehovah your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength. 32 So the scribe said to Him, "Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth, for there is one God, and there is no other but He. 33 And to love Him with all the heart, with all the understanding, with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices." 34 Now when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, He said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God."- mark 12:32-34. Jesus said Jehovah is the one true God and he commanded to love him. Likewise the scribe also said there is just one God, not 3 in 1. Jesus also said 3And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.- John 17:3 6 But from the beginning of the creation, God(Jehovah) 'made them male and female.'- mark 10:6 I am Jehovah, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:- Isaiah 45:5
@@renitv real quick no one is saying there's a God besides him, since there is 1 God, so those verses are fine. Jesus, father, holy spirit are God. One God. You can argue against it, but be careful to not misrepresent trinitarian thought.
@@quil8322 The trinity doctrine teaches 3 gods. You do not have three co equal, co eternal, co powerful persons, who are all separate from each other, to equal one God. That’s a contradiction.
@@Standing_on_the_word is there any scripture that shown that Jesus says "my flesh come from heaven" in the new testament? If so, can you help me to point out that verse? Thank you sir
YHWH is eating and speaking to Abraham in human form, then He says He will rain down fire from YHWH in heaven, 2 persons. No one is arguing against that. Why is it ok that YHWH is 2 persons, but He cannot be 3? And why would it be ok to Unitarians that YHWH can be in human form for half a day, yet He simply cannot dwell in human form for 33 years?
Oftentimes, in the OT when someone would send messengers in their place it would be said that you spoke with the one that sent them. To argue that YHWH actually sat with and talked with Abraham makes the scripture out to be a lie. Jesus Himself said that no one has seen the father, yet you claim that Abraham spoke with and ate with yhwh?
Deut 6:5 is clear there is only one YHWH. So Genesis 18.... it says YHWH twice I agree, but there is only ONE as per scripture. When I looked into the Hebrew of Genesis 18 I learned about the 'Mark of accusative' which seems to mean, saying the same thing in two ways. This makes more sense because we are told over and over and over again there is only one Almighty God. Who is also not man Numbers 23:19 Because He is Spirit that no man has seen before John 1.
It’s appropriate to worship Jesus, because of his sacrifice. He is the go-between as the “mediator” for the world and our “advocate” as the church class. He is our elder brother and sacrificed all on our behalf and is therefore worthy of our admiration and praise. Through him we, in our lowly and filthy condition, are able to approach the Creator of the Universe. Without him, we would continue to die until we all extinguished ourselves. See Philippians 2:8-11. It’s all about God’s plan and Jesus’ sacrifice.
@@Nikzww187 Jesus existed before he was a human. He was only in the flesh for a time here with us. Jesus is the word of God and the word of God is uncreated. This is because God ONLY creates through his word. If the word was not as eternal as God the father, then how could God create anything? This is why the bible states in the beginning was the word, and the word was with God (the father) and the word WAS GOD.
bo ang 1 Timothy 2:5 is about as clear as you can get, note that I do not believe that Christ was just an ‘agent’ he was the unique son of God but he was clearly GIVEN the Holy Spirit (that is Gods power - not a seperate being) and he gave up this Spirit when he died
For God(Father) so love the world, that He (Father) gave His Begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but will have everlasting life.
As a Christian with little knowledge, what I get from this discussion is the concept of trinity is what makes all of the bible make sense. The other belief (that Jesus is not God, just a glorified being) will make the bible have many contradictions.
You are right about having little knowledge, because extra biblical concept of the Trinity makes the Bible an incomprehensible mess. The other belief, that Jesus is the Christ the Son of God, a virgin born man whom God resurrected and glorified, has zero contradictions.

What i can't understand the logic if God said you shall have no others GOD besides me, YET Unitarians believe it's ok to pray to YESHUA. and he's just the messiah and slightly under God... How is that logical?? How is that not worship?? Okay here's one for you God said: Let's make man in our own image, who was he speaking to? In Rev when he said: i am the alpha the omega which was which is to come. Yet that whole passage is about Yeshua coming to earth to rule again - He said which was / which was is a past tense. I love how ppl try to box God, how can he not come into his own creation? He's God he can do whatever he wants. Your logic makes no sense at all... We have one God / his holy spirit / Yeshua manifested into man. YET still ONE, And i find it funny how the bible says shall cling to a wife and become one flesh yet there's still 2 ppl.

Jesus said to Samaritan women: "You Samaritans worship what you do not know; We Worship What we Do Know, for salvation is from the Jews." Jesus is Not claiming here that the Jews Did not understand the full Nature of God, rather he emphatically states that "we [including Jesus] worship what WE KNOW". Jesus, in Mark 12:29 stated oneness of God which is the Shema found in Deuteronomy 6:4 and Jews agreed with Jesus. It is clear that Jesus worshiped God whom he called "Father". The Father of Jesus is the God of both Old Testament and New Testament. According to Jesus' own mouth, the Father is the "Only True God" (John 17:3), "who alone is God" (John 5:44), and "who is Lord of heaven and earth" (Matthew 11:25). It is the Almighty Father who is the Father and God of Jesus, and also our Father and God (John 20:17).
+Gold Diamond Jesus is saying that to the Samaritan woman in a general sense in that the Jews, worshiped God. Not him. There is nowhere in scripture where it says that Jesus worshiped the Father. He is talking about the Jewish religion as opposed to theirs. "for salvation is of the Jews." As for Mark 12:29. Paul uses the Shema in 1 Cor 8:6 for both the Father and the Son. "we have but ONE God the Father, and *onelord* Jesus Christ." Mark 12:29 contains "one lord" in it. "Hear O Israel, The Lord (Jesus Christ) our God (The Father) is *one lord.* " If the Son is the not God, then the Father can't be "Lord" by your own standards. Marr 11:25. As for John 20:17, the Father calls the Son "God" in Heb 1:8. So they call each other God because they are.
+preto shohmoofc guy Jesus clearly has a God whom he calls "Father". God being called "Father" is found in the Old Testament as well. Jesus emphatically stated in John 4:22 that "WE" [including himself] "WORSHIP" whom we [Jews] know. The phrase "for salvation is of the Jews" simply means that God's message of Salvation has "first" come to the Jews [Jesus is a Jew too]. As Apostle Paul states in Romans 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: FIRST TO THE JEW, then to the Gentile". Also Acts 3:26 states: "When God raised up his servant, he sent him FIRST to you [Jews] to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways." Mark 12:29 and Deuteronomy 6:4 DOES NOT remotely suggest that it includes Jesus. This is an erroneous interpretation of the Trinitarians and Oneness to show that it includes Jesus or that Jesus is the Father. The Shema of Israel is about the "Oneness" of God, who is known as the "Father" in the Old Testament as well (See: Deuteronomy 32:6, Isaiah 64:8, Malachi 2:10, Isaiah 63:16). It seem that you are unaware that Father/God is LORD (capitals) and Jesus is "Lord" in the English Bibles, to make distinction. Apostle Paul states in 1 Corinthians 8:5-6: "For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"), yet for us there is but ONE GOD, THE FATHER, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live". Jesus is "Lord", Not "LORD GOD". Perhaps you do not know that Jesus was "MADE" Lord. In Acts 2:36 it states: "Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has MADE this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah." Therefore your statement: "If the Son is the not God, then the Father can't be "Lord" by your own standards. Marr 11:25." is illogical and wrong. Sadly your interpretation of Hebrew 1:8 is pagan. It literally makes "Two Gods" calling each other "God". Firstly, the phrase "But about the Son he says" as it appear in bible in Hebrew 1:8 DOES NOT exist in Greek manuscripts. This is deliberately added by the translators to make it look as if "God" is directly saying these things about Jesus, and calling him "Capital-G God". But this verse is actually quotation of Psalm 45:6, where King David is the one who is saying these things!. King David calls Messiah "elohim" in his prophetic visionary experience. The word "elohim" can mean "gods", "God", "god" and it is used of "angels" and "men" as well as God. In the Hebrew culture, anyone who has been given great authority by God to represent Him was called "elohim", meaning "god" (Psalm 82:1,6). Now read from Psalm 45:6-7: "Your throne, "elohim" [god, mighty one] is forever and ever. The scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness; YOU HAVE LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HATED WICKEDNESS. Therefore "elohim" [god], YOUR GOD [eloheka, Almighty God in Context] has ANOINTED YOU with the oil of gladness beyond your companions..". God DID NOT anoint God or Himself!. This passage is about the Messiah [who can be called "god" or "elohim" in the Hebrew culture] who "loved righteousness and hated wickedness" and was "anointed" by Almighty God to function as Lord Messiah. Whether one like it or not, but Jesus has a God whom he praise and worship according to the Bible, and no one can change this truth!!. Jesus calls his Father "God" in the New Testament. Anyone [including Jesus] who understand that there is a higher power or supreme being who is above all that exist will call that being "God", an object of praise and worship. And this is what Jesus does, he calls his Father "God" [both before and after resurrection]. I will leave some verses for you, and I hope that you will realize that Jesus is Not God, but is the "Son OF God" as it is emphatically stated in the Bible. " keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better". (Ephesians 1:17) "And has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father- to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen". (Revelation 1:6) "Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it. I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on him my new name". (Jesus calls Father "his God", even after resurrection and ascension to heaven). (Revelation 3:12). "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead." (1 Peter 1:3) "Jesus said to her, “Stop clinging to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren, and say to them, ‘I ascend to my Father and your Father, and my God and your God.’” (John 20:17) "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort." (2 Corinthians 1:3). "At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, "I praise you, Father, LORD of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do." (Luke 10:21) "A certain ruler asked him, "Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life? "Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good--except God alone." (Luke 18:19) "How can you believe since you accept glory from one another but do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?" (John 5:44). "Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." (John 17:3)
Gold Diamond a. Hebrew 1:8 DOES exist in Greek manuscripts. That's a lie. And the Father has a God when he declared his Son to Be God. Heb 1:8 But unto the Son he says, "Your throne O God.." b. The subject of John 4:22 was the Jewish Nation in general. You need to find me a better verse. This one does not work on me. Can you not find me a verse where Jesus worships God? No? Wow! c. The subject of 1 Cor 8:6 is the Shema. This is why he introduces "there is no God but one." in 1 Cor 8:4. This phrase is only ever used to describe the Shema. Take Mark 12:29 for example: After the scribe quotes the Shema in Mark 12:29 he confirms the Shema by making this quote to Jesus in vs. 32, "He is one, and there is no one else besides him." Jesus didn't say this, the Scribe did. This is why Jesus said to him in Vs. 34. "You are not *far* from the kingdom of God." He didn't tell him that he was correct, but on the right track. d. Elohim is not singular, but plural. "im" in Hebrew is plural. Examples: Ephra im translates as "multiple blessings". What is an angel? Answer: cherub. What's another kind of angel? Answer: seraph What do you call many cherubs? Answer: cherub[im] seraph[im]. Elohim is plural but when it is used can be translated in the singular. Just like "God". It really means, "godS". But just like the Trinity we say "God". Singular. The rest I'll leave for another topic.
+preto shohmoofc guy You wrote: "Hebrew 1:8 DOES exist in Greek manuscripts. That's a lie.". When did I say that Hebrews 1:8 does not exist in Greek manuscripts??. It seems that you are not paying attention when you read. I said that the phrase "but unto the Son HE SAYS" as it appears in English bibles DO NOT exist in Greek manuscripts. The words "he says" was deliberately ADDED by the translators to make it look like as if God is calling Son "Capital-G" God. You also wrote: "And the Father has a God when he declared his Son to Be God". What!. Almighty Father "has a God" ??. One thing I can tell you that you are Not Trinitarian, if you claiming to be. In Trinitarian doctrine, only Son [Jesus] has a God [as a man, as they say] and Not Father. To say that "Father has a God" denotes that there is a power which is higher than Father. Again, it is your wrong reasoning that is unable to see that God is NOT the speaker in Hebrew 1:8 [which is a quotation of Psalm 45:6]. Psalm 45:6 is believed by some to be written by King David (some think it was written by Solomon). But the person who wrote Psalm 45:6 is the speaker who says in Psalm 45:6-7 "Your throne, God [Elohim], is forever and ever; A scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; Therefore God [Elohim], Your God [Eloheka], has anointed You With the oil of joy above Your fellows". Here it is clear that someone is getting "anointed", because "he loved righteousness and hated wickedness". This is a clear reference to the Messiah (not Almighty God). I wrote to you before that in the Bible the word "elohim" can mean "gods", "God", "god" and it is used of "angels" and "men", it is also used for a "single" pagan deities in the Old Testament (See: 1 Kings 11:5, Judges 11:24, 2 Kings 1:2). Also, one has to consider the "context" and the "verb" [whether singular or plural] to properly translate the word "elohim". Notice, a single person "Moses" in exodus 4:16 and 7:1 is called "elohim". Now, would this make Moses "Almighty God" since he is called "elohim" ?. You are trying to ignore the fact that in the Hebrew culture, anyone who has been given great authority by God to represent Him was called "elohim", meaning "god" (Psalm 82:1,6). Even Jesus claimed to be "god" NOT "Almighty God" in John 10:34, where he quoted Psalm 82:6, where Judges of Isarel were called "gods" and "Sons of God". Each of those human Judge were "god" and collectively they were "gods" functioning as "representatives" of God. You have an interpretation of Hebrews 1:8, where you have literally "Two Gods", and One God anoints other God, because the other God [Jesus] "loved righteousness and hated wickedness". Sadly this sounds pure paganism. God DID NOT anoint God or Himself!. Again I say, that this passage is about the Messiah [who can be called "god" or "elohim" in the Hebrew culture] who "loved righteousness and hated wickedness" and was consequently "anointed" by Almighty God to function as Lord Messiah. Acts 10:38 states: "GOD ANOINTED Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, BECAUSE GOD WAS WITH HIM". God anointed Jesus of Nazareth [as fulfillment to the prophecy found in Psalm 45:6-7]. The notion as if Capital-G God anointed other Capital-G God is really absurd. Please don't twist and divert what is being discussed about John 4:22 in an attempt to escape the fact that Jesus tells plainly to the Samaritan women that "WE [including himself] WORSHIP whom we know". You say that subject of John 4:22 was Jewish nation. So is Jesus not part of the Jewish nation?, is he not King of the Jews?. Jesus "includes" himself with his brethren [Jews] by saying that "We" know whom we worship. In the same way Jesus says in John 3:11 to Nicodemus: "Very truly I tell you, WE [including himself with others] speak of what WE know, and we testify to what WE have seen.." As Jesus "worships" Father in spirit and truth, he desires everyone to worship Father in spirit and truth (John 4:24). The fact that Jesus calls Father "God" with his own mouth [both before and after resurrection] is of No significance to you?. All those verses that I gave you and many other verses in the Bible where Father is Jesus' God is of no significance to you?. Common sense dictates that anyone [including Jesus] who understand and believe that there is a higher power or supreme being who is above all that exist will call that power or being "God", an object of praise and worship. Jesus calls Father "God". Trinitarianism has blinded many people to this simple thing. In 1 Corinthians 8:6, "ONLY" the Father is being spoken as "God". It states: "...to us there is One God, THE FATHER..". Jesus is "Lord" in 1 Corinthian 8:6, because God "MADE" him to be Lord and Messiah (See Acts 2:36). Shema of Israel is about the Oneness of God, and only the Father is being spoken as God of Jesus and God of all. Jesus is the Son of God and representative of God, who can be called "god" in Hebrew culture, but NOT Almighty God. I hope that you will realize sooner or later that the things that you believed about Jesus and nature of God were all based upon wrong interpretation and assumptions.
Gold Diamond A. You said to me and I quote: "the phrase "But about the Son he says" as it appear in bible in Hebrew 1:8 DOES NOT exist in Greek manuscripts. This is deliberately added by the translators to make it look as if "God" is directly saying these things about Jesus, and calling him "Capital-G God". " End quote. But you've been lied to. The phrase But unto the Son he says, " IS IN THE MANUSCRIPTS and I will prove it. This is The Codex Sinaiticus one of the oldest and complete Manuscripts that we have in existence and * λεγει "He says"."he says," ειπεν * are present in the Manuscript. It starts in vs. 5 and continues on right into vs. 13. From vs. 5 to vs. 13 the author of Hebrews has included quotes from the Father. codexsinaiticus.org/en/manuscript.aspx?book=46&chapter=1&lid=en&side=r&verse=8&zoomSlider=1 So you have been lied to!! B. The phrase a) "he says," ειπεν is present in Vs 5. b) And continues on in vs 6 λεγει "He says". c) Vs. 7 has it as well, λεγει "He says". The opening of Vs. 8 is a continuation of thought from the Father. This is why most translations have Vs 5-13 in "quotations." The author of Hebrews does not put his words in quotations because he is the author and not speaking about another. He is the one who is giving his commentary. And when he quotes the Father, it is in quotations. Get out of the Greek you have no clue what you're talking about!!! ======================== *2.* you said, Psalm 45:6 is believed to be written by King David (some think it was written by Solomon). " End quote. Too bad!! The Father IS applying this to the Son. And the Father is STILL CALLING HIM GOD!!! So the Father calls him God!! The Father has a God too!! But here is where I kill your argument. Heb 1:10 IS a quote from Psalms 102:27 and it ISN'T talking about anyone other than Yahweh God! And the Father calls the Son here in vs. 10 ""Lord". Heb 1:10 "You Lord, In the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the works of your hands.." This is a quote from the Septuagint and "You Lord" is not present in the Text in Psalms 102:27 LXX. Heb 1:10 is in quotations so it is the Father speaking. So not only does the Father call the Son "God" but he also calls him, "Lord". =========================== *.3.* You said, Even Jesus claimed to be "god" NOT "Almighty God" in John 10:34, where he quoted Psalm 82:6, where Judges of Isarel were called "gods" Ready to get spanked? If you read John 10:34 "Jesus answered them, *"Has it not been written in your ((((( *Law* )))) I said you are gods?"* News flash! the Psalms are *NOT A BOOK OF THE LAW*. To Torah which means (5 books of the law.) are. When Jesus was quoting Psalms 82:6 he may have been quoting it, but he was talking about Deut 19:17-18. Deut 19:17-18 "then both the men who have the dispute shall *STAND BEFORE YAHWEH*... The Book Deuteronomy is Greek and means "The 5th book of the Law." Deut 19:17-18 is talking about those very same Judges who stand in place as Yahweh to judge the people. So when they are being called "gods" in Psalms 82:6 they are REALLY being called "Yahwehs". And if you read the context of Psalms 82 it is talking about those Judges who have misused their judgment upon the people of Israel. This is why it reads.. Psalms 82:6-7 "I said, "You are gods, and all of you are sons of the Most High, *NEVERTHELESS YOU WILL DIE LIKE MEN AND FALL LIKE ANY OF THE PRINCES."* ======================== Jesus was using a scripture verse which talked about false judges to counter the Jews in John 10:31. ======================= He was calling them "false judges i.e Yahwehs". Because they didn't believe him. Nothing more. *Now I will give you the reason why they picked up stones to kill Jesus.* Because Jesus in John 10:28-30 was calling himself The Almighty God!! In vs 28 Jesus quotes Deut 32:39 which is talking about Yahweh and applies it to BOTH the Father AND HIMSELF!! John 10:28-29 "And *I give eternal life* to them, and they will never perish ; and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father who has given them to me, is greater than all, and *no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand."* Jesus is quoting Deut 32:39 and is including himself into this Yahweh quote. Deut 32:39 "See now that I, Iam he, and there is *no god besides me,* It is I who put to death and *GIVE LIFE* (Jesus applied this to himself in vs. 28). I have wounded and it is I who heal, *AND THERE IS NO ONE WHO CAN DELIVER FROM MY HAND.* " Jesus here is taking credit for giving Life and that no one can take them out of his hand included!! This isn't taking about David or Solomon Pal!!! This is Yahweh God!! And this verse is telling you that there is no God other then him!!! This is why Jesus then completes quoting Deut 32:39 by saying in vs. 10 "The Father and I are ONE." This is why the Jews picked up stones to kill him!! For claiming to by YAHWEH GOD!
If the trinity is real why then were early believers forced to either accept this new manmade doctrine of the trinity and convert to the catholic religion and if they did not they were called madman, heretics. They were cast out of their churches, persecuted and sometimes killed?
@@amaimonmoore4498 you have no clue what Christendom have done in the name of there God They have influenced many killings to anyone who taught against there traditions of men. Like the trinity dogma
God bless you for sharing this. I've only just started watching this and this is awesome. It's put a real smile on my face. As a premillennial Christian with a heavy concern for the apocalyptic Gospel and apocalyptic Scriptures, I believe with urgency, the Church must reinforce its defence of the Trinity. I believe that this pivotal, fundamental doctrine will come under massive attack shortly.
The Trinity is a man made doctrine. There is one God our Father and One Lord Jesus. They are distinct. Christ is the mediator between man and God. I advise you to study early Christianity. Trinity is false.
@@kinetic7609 read the NT and read the accounts of the earliest church fathers around 100AD. The trinity is the essence of the christian faith revealed by christ’s life on earth.
@@SKgyebaek I have read the NT, and I've come to the conclusion that the Trinity is false. The earliest Christians we're not trinitarian, it wasn't even a thought among them, only 2-300 years after Christ death did the doctrine of the Trinity become enforced and the "norm". Do you really think that the trinity isn't pagan influence? All pagan religions held some form of trinity in their teachings, from Babylon to Egypt.
@@kinetic7609 There is no salvation in a false Jesus Christ. I believe Jesus is God. If I’m wrong, I’m in trouble. Likewise, if you are wrong, you’re in trouble. Read all of the texts which describe, declare, and make known that Jesus is God. Pray about it.
1 John 4:1-3 [1]Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world. [2]Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: [3]And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
I'm a born again Christian (John 3:3)! And the Holy Spirit show me this...(Genesis 1:26) God: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit! Man: spirit, soul and body! So the spirit is not soul and the soul is not the body, but they are part of one being (man)! Unfortunately, most "Christians" are not true Christians (Christ's followers) and therefore do not understand the Creator of all visible and invisible the Triune God Elohim (Yahweh) because they do not know that man is also a triune! So the Father is not the Son and the Son is not the Holy Spirit, but they are part of one being (God)! Ask God for wisdom (James 1:5)! God bless you all!!!
It was not the Holy Spirit that showed you that! That is Greek philosophy, that is trichotomy. It is not a Biblical understanding. Back when I was certain of the trinity, my fellow trinitarians and I viewed trichotomy as heresy.

I got this thought today........ God says we are Body, Soul, Spirit and lets be honest im 1 So our very being testifies 3 is 1 yet all are 100% me/you..... Your spirit will be judged on what the body does they are not separate in Gods eyes. Hebrews 4:12 may help with what im saying. Though it is impossible for the deaf and blind to see. 2 speakers have a religion the other 2 have a relationship with our father. Owe and the 2 Unitarians got destroyed : )
That is a terrible analogy. Let me explain. In the Bible you are a soul. Your souls is the totality of your being. It can be dead or alive, aka you can be dead or alive. You body is your soul. Either alive or dead. The spirit is breath. The mysterious powerful animating principle/force that comes from God and seemingly returns to him at your death. You are not 3 in 1. You are one being either alive or dead. Either animated by God/breath or dead. Jesus is Gods beloved son. Does he not say that over and over and over again?
@@danielgilbert7366 Genesis 2. “God formed man from the dust of the earth, breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living soul” The word “breath” here is the literal word for “spirit” as well. They are the same word and meaning depends on context (Job 27:3). The word for soul here, “nephesh”, is depicted as now being alive and no longer dead thanks to God animating it (See Ezekiel where God says Souls can and will die). Soul wasn’t what a man had but was what a man was. Spirit was the animating principle/force from God that makes the body/mind/heart/lungs/etc function. The breath of a man/woman. Please please please go and see these things for yourself. They don’t teach this in Church, we’re so confused as a people. The word for soul is “Nephesh”. The word for spirit is “Ruach”. The word for body is “basar” I think but it’s not present in Genesis. But it doesn’t matter. Do a word study on these words and see for yourself what they really mean and how they’re used. Note that of course their are subtleties in their usage and that they can be used in multiple ways, just like the words spirit, soul, body, etc can be used in multiple ways in English.
oh boy... 1:04:00 "The Holy Spirit isn't God because He was never worshipped" but when alllll the clear scriptural evidence for Jesus being worshipped is presented, it doesn't count? 🤔 May God have mercy on them and open their eyes...
Wait I'm confused The guy with the mustache says about unitarians worshiping the flesh. But unitarians don't worship flesh they worship God I.e the father. Isn't it trinitarians who worship the son and view him as God in the flesh?
Did everyone in the room including our panelists totally miss verse 5, like I did until just today? Psalm 110:5 (KJV) 5 The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath. "The Lord" from above is adonay, not adoni. All debate over. I checked this in the tanach and it's also adonay. Jesus the Lord, adonay, is at the right hand just as Christ testified.
Yes but aren’t the vowel pointings a later addition? That’s the point Mr.Buzzard was trying to make at times as well. I’m assuming your getting this from the masoretic text but 🤷🏾♂️. So it’s ambiguous to start (for us modern readers) and an educated guess is made based on context and yes thing like the Masoretic text. Imo Jesus is not l’Adonai he is l’Adon,
Great video brother's. Its mind boggling that People reject the trinity or Godhead, its everywhere in the holy scriptures. And its under attack today like never before. People are falling away, and people who reject the trinity or Godhead are doing exactly what 2 Timothy 4:2-4 said they would do.
It’s everywhere in scripture, BUT yet there’s not a explicit scripture stating such a doctrine🤔No one in the Old Testament believes or taught it, no one in The New Testament believed or taught it. But somehow it’s there🤔
Every Christian is going to believe a worldview that includes numerous implicit claims from the Bible. Unitarianism itself, for example. Unitarianism includes positive affirmation of the negative claim that Christ is not God. Where is that explicitly stated in the Bible?
@@leahjames6870 indeed, theres no explicit scripture stating such doctrine the same as the word Omnicient, Omnipresent and Omnipotent..Yet we acknowledge that all the component of these words are written in the Scripture to describe the power of our God...
When the Unitarian referenced the Talmud 17:40 he lost all credibility and the debate. And then the Jew on the trinitarian side referenced it at 25:20. I just turned it off then, I’m not listening to any of these people. Let the Holy Spirit be your teacher.
To me the biggest objection to the 'trinity' is the denial of Jesus words at John 3:16 "God loved the world so much that he gave his only begotten son". If the 'trinity' of necessity must remain intact at all times then the 'Son' didnt entirely come to earth, his 'spiritual essence' was till part of the 'trinity'! Also The Father's supreme, self sacrificing love is nullified. He didnt really give up aanoything!. Yet John said "If this is how God loved us, we should love one another". It was all an illusion, a charade! Jesus didnt really pray to a 'Father' e.t.c!
I wonder how the Trinitarian universe would have looked like if 1 equaled 3😄 Besides that, what would be the point of talking about concepts like „father“ and „son“, if the father doesn't distinguish himself by nothing from the son? Reality, as I have experienced it, tells us that every father predates any son. But hey, that's just me... Maybe my father and I where both just hallucinating at my birth😀 Every hermeneutics that relies on previous hermeneutics stops being the proper understanding of God's Word and breaks down into fallacy.
Yahweh manifested himself in the form of a man on Genesis 18. Why do people have such a problem of God who is all powerful manifesting himself in the form of a man, Yeshua?
Numbers 23:19 God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man that he should repent. No one has seen God at any time John 1 Genesis 18 when studied in Hebrew calls that verse a 'mark of accusative' not saying there are two YHWHs (because Deut 6:5 is quite clear there is only one) but two ways of saying the same thing.
I couldnt get NO ONE to adequately explain the Trinity, they only left me confused,i finally gained understanding when i discoverd the Hebrew meanings of key Hebrew words such as "Elohim" & "Echad" i was set free in my spirit!!!
If it’s possible to be more of a Trinitarian than I already was, I am after watching this debate! The Unitarian position is on the sand, rather than the rock, and the storm is coming. There is NO ONE BESIDES GOD who deserves our worship! Jesus is Lord and King and Savior and High Priest and Prophet only because He proceeds from the Father! I pray the Christian brethren hold fast to sound doctrine and not give in to that which is falsely called knowledge and the doctrines of demons. And I pray that the Lord continues to open the doors for many Jews into the Messianic Judaism movement! In Jesus’s Name. Amen.
Please provide me one verse from the New Testament which explicitly (or implicitly) states that, or tries to convey, that belief in Jesus Christ as being co-eternal and co-equal with God the Father is a salvific issue, on which the promise He made to Abraham rests. I also ask you one simple question: do true believers acknowledge any other God than Jesus Christ's God?
@@edenicchristian335 As Adam Clarke (1760-1832) put it, "The doctrine of the eternal Sonship of Christ is, in my opinion, anti-scriptural, and highly dangerous. This doctrine I reject for the following reasons: - 1st. I have not been able to find any express declaration in the Scriptures concerning it. 2dly. If Christ be the Son of God as to his Divine nature, then he cannot be eternal; for son implies a father; and father implies, in reference to son, precedency in time, if not in nature too. Father and son imply the idea of generation; and generation implies a time in which it was effected, and time also antecedent to such generation. 3dly. If Christ be the Son of God, as to his Divine nature, then the Father is of necessity prior, consequently superior to him. 4thly. Again, if this Divine nature were begotten of the Father, then it must be in time; i.e. there was a period in which it did not exist, and a period when it began to exist. This destroys the eternity of our blessed Lord, and robs him at once of his Godhead. 5thly. To say that he was begotten from all eternity, is, in my opinion, absurd; and the phrase eternal Son is a positive self-contradiction. Eternity is that which has had no beginning, nor stands in any reference to Time. Son supposes time, generation, and father; and time also antecedent to such generation. Therefore the conjunction of these two terms, Son and eternity is absolutely impossible, as they imply essentially different and opposite ideas."
@@edenicchristian335 Not to mention the Council of Chalcedon declared, "One and the Same Christ, Son, Lord, Only-begotten; acknowledged in Two Natures unconfusedly, unchangeably, *indivisibly, inseparably; the difference of the Natures being in no way removed because of the Union* , but rather the properties of each Nature being preserved, and (both) concurring into ONE PERSON and One Hypostasis; *not as though He were parted or divided into Two Persons* , but One and the Self-same Son". Modern day trinitarians love to dance between "that was the human Jesus" or "that was the divine Jesus" in their usual double-talk, but according to the Council of Chalcedon (451) there is ONE person and ONE Jesus and you can't divide or separate the two natures. They taught two natures in one union. Basically, they teach that the divine nature of Jesus Christ also died on the cross which we know is impossible as God is immortal. They also teach Jesus being fully divine and fully human was tempted in the desert by the devil, but we also know God can't be tempted. They also teach Jesus in his full divinity did not know the final hour, but God knows all things in advance.

Zechariah 13:1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness. Zechariah 13:1 is clearly talking about a sacrifice provided by/of God. Jeremiah 2:13 For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.

Romans 8, Ephesians 1 the eternal covenant, last mentioned, first made. Where the trinity made a covenant with themselves before the creation of the universe for the redemption of man. That is why the text states "by myself" it was not made with man but the fellowship of the trinity with themselves so it could not be broken the redemption of man could not be stopped. A covenant is between more than one person. And the result of the eternal covenant? The power of the blood raised Jesus from the dead, thus can do the same for you! Hebrews 13:20 Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant,

Antonio Ada Jr did you know that this is one of the only verses in the New Testament that is considered by almost everyone to be fake or 80-90% surely fake and added on possibly hundreds of years later? Seriously look it up, do a quick Google search it will take 5 minutes. Just type in 1 John 5:7 forgery. You can even find this on Wikipedia(Johannine Comma)
youngknowledgeseeker Did you know that you are Wrong? 1 John 5:7 is scripture, to reject it is Heretical. Here's my proof that it's The Word of God. It is found in many texts along with it existing in Early Church Father quotations... • Prologue to Codex Fuldensis (6th Century, Oldest Latin Manuscript) •Codex Frisingensis (6th-7th Century Latin Manuscript) •Codex Legionensis (7th Century Latin Manuscript) •Traces in Syriac Peshitta (British Library, Add. 14470, 5th -6th Century) • Traces in Syriac Peshitta (British Library, Add. 14472, 6th -7th Century) •Traces in Syriac Peshitta (British Library, Add. 14473, 6th Century) •Traces in Syriac Peshitta (British Library, Add. 18812, 6th-7th Century) •Traces in Syriac Peshitta ( British Library, Add. 17115, 9th-10th Century) •Greek MS.

For the removal of this [passage] out the ancient copies are understandably by those who wished to sever the divinity from the human economy. And thus by the very language of the ancient interpreters, some have corrupted this epistle, aiming at severing the humanity from the divinity. But the humanity is united to the divinity, and are not two, but one. Knowing this, the ancients did not hesitate to call Mary 'Theotokos'." -Socrates of Constantinople (380-450AD), Ecclesiastical History, Origin of Nestorianism, Nicene and Post Nicene Father's Series 2, Vol. 2, Chapter 32, Page 171. "we read in the unity of the trinity is placed in the first epistle of John, where much error has occurred at the hands of unfaithful translators contrary to the truth of faith, who have kept just 'the three words WATER, BLOOD, AND SPIRIT IN THIS EDITION OMITTING MENTION OF FATHER, WORD, AND SPIRIT' in which especially the Catholic Faith is strengthened and the unity of substance of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is attested." -St. Jerome (March 27, 347 AD - September 30, 420 AD), "Jeromes' Prologue to the Canonical Epistle" (Jerome was the translator of the Latin Vulgate).

Over and over, both Brown and White refer to God as "complex in His unity." The word _complex_ means "composed of parts" which of course means that God is a composite being. This is rather curious because both Brown and White accuse the unitarians of "heresy" without apparently realizing that a composite Godhead is also considered heresy by the majority of Christians who affirm the doctrine of divine simplicity (DDS). If God (G) = Father (F), Son (S), and Holy Spirit (H) --- G = FSH --- then F ≠ G, S ≠ G and H ≠ G. Thus, each person (P) is _part_ of G. And even if this hurdle can be somehow overcome, it is then obvious the G is dependent on FSH for its actuation and conservation (G ----> FSH). Thus, G is logically posterior to FSH and is thereby dependent on something less than G in order to be G. All composites are assemblages of parts and are explained and defined by their parts, even if the parts are somehow eternal. Since God is not a second-order being, He cannot be a complex unity. In order to overcome the first objection, it is argued that each P shares the same essence (E) but is distinct in personality. But this equivocates on the definition of G. Clearly, S ≠ G in the first sense for that would identify S with the entire Godhead (which is something "complex" trinitarians reject). Thus, the E is something shared akin to species sharing whatever E they happen to belong to (3 trees, one tree essence), but that is clearly tritheism. For if each P instantiates the E, then 3P = 3G. So, the only way to salvage the Brown/White trinitarian approach is to fall back onto the "complex unity" position which locates the 3P in the one being of God. And that of course fractionalizes G (there is an aspect of G unique to each P). If it is argued that each part of our body is fully human (thus, enabling us to call each P fully G), it cannot be forgotten that though your spleen is fully human, it is not a full human. And it also cannot be forgotten that this acknowledges the ontological dependence of the whole upon the parts which gives the parts logical primacy. And we haven't even touched upon the problem of the impossibility of finite parts coordinating to an infinite whole. No assemblage of finite parts can constitute an infinite whole.
The mistake you've made is that you're trying to use logic to think, which is considered heretical and carnally minded by trinitarian theological standards.
@@jesusisthechristthesonofgod, thought is not even possible without logic. No sense could be made of any word or sentence without relying on the principles of thought which are identity, contradiction and excluded middle. You couldn't have written your post without depending on logical principles to coherently convey your message. Logic is simply the study of coherent communication. And any proposal that is incoherent cannot be affirmed because it cannot be understood. You cannot consistently tell me that God is the ultimate being when your doctrine tells me that He isn't the ultimate being. You cannot consistently tell me that each person of the Godhead is fully God when your doctrine tells me that each person is fractionally God. That's nothing but static over the radio. Moreover, you are mistaken in the extreme about logic's being “considered heretical,” because trinitarian theologians and philosophers have defended logic since the beginning of church history. Christian ethics should dictate to you that it is sinful to allege as true something you're ignorant about. And to prove you're ignorant of the topic, quote me just one trinitarian church father who argued that logic is heretical. Just one. You will look in vain for that quote because it doesn't exist. The most common form of the doctrine of the Trinity is called “divine simplicity.” It was promulgated by the church fathers and systematized by Thomas Aquinas. Said doctrine is the official doctrine of the Catholic Church and several Protestant denominations. Aquinas relied heavily on Aristotle's metaphysics and the logical principles he identified and articulated in his writings. Regardless what you think about my beliefs, if you're serious about your Christianity, you need to quit asserting knowledge of things you know nothing about. Research a matter before you talk about it: _Proverbs 18_ _13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him_ .
@@jesusisthechristthesonofgod Okay, I get where you're coming from now. Your initial post sounds a lot like the trinitarian trolls who will say anything and everything, including telling baldfaced lies, to defend the Trinity.
If I may give a Biblical perspective on the "TRINITY." First, in order to understand the Divine Nature of God, you must stop trying to "put God in a box." His Divine existence is BEYOND human understanding and the physical limits of this world. Let's hear what God Himself says about this in I TIMOTHY 3:16 "And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: A. God was manifested in the flesh, B. Justified in the Spirit, C. Seen by angels, D. Preached among the Gentiles, E. Believed on in the world, F. Received up in glory. You should take a look at Exodus 3 where God appeared to Moses as a burning bush, but the bush was not consumed. And He had a conversation with Moses. Does that sound like something you can comprehend? There are many more Bible verses that point to God's Divine Nature as "TRIUNE." But we must first "stop trying to put God in a box.."
@@Justadudeman22 God can’t be both at the same time since they defies the very meaning of God which means to exist ultimately independently. Call him a god, divine, god-like, in the form of God, in the image of God, whatever you like. But do not call him God almighty which is completely seperate from just the general meaning implied by ‘god’.
@@lets_wrapitup after seeing b1 Timothy 2:5 I agree. That verse shatters the Trinity. As well as Jesus saying we Jews know what we worship . They worshipped literally one(person) God Jehovah. God bless.

[40] As it is, you are looking for a way to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do such things. [41] You are doing the works of your own father.” “We are not illegitimate children,” they protested. “The only Father we have is God himself.” [42] Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on my own; God sent me. [43] Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. [44] You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. [45] Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me! [46] Can any of you prove me guilty of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don’t you believe me? [47] Whoever belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.” bible.com/bible/111/jhn.8.38-47.NIV

Did not '''ONE GOD''' create us? Why do we profane the covenant of our ancestors by being unfaithful to one another? John 17:3 ( NLT ) And this is the way to have eternal life--to know you, the '''ONLY TRUE GOD''', and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.

Michael Brown: "If Joe sends you and you are Joe, I am sure when you go home to snuggle with his wife in bed she won't accept that." At that point these unitarians should have just conceded the debate and gone home (to snuggle with their wives). Gold from Brown!

One big problem with this debate is it was completely loosided due to the fact that the trinitarians were harmonized in their beliefs but the unitarians clearly differed in significant ways. Imagine James White was paired with a modalist instead. That seems to be how the unitarian side was operating.

Jesus clarified that his Father is "the ONLY true God" (John 17:3). Jesus' own words make it clear that he is not GOD. So much debate for something that Jesus made clear from the begining.
2 verses later Jesus also said that he existed before the world existed and he shares the same glory as the Father. John 17:5. 🤣🤣🤣 How can Jesus share the same glory as God if he isn't God. Isaiah 42:8 God shares his glory with no one.
@@KyrieEleisonMaranatha First of all, in the verse you mention, Jesus talks about the glory he (in some bibles) “shared” (in others) “had with” his Father. No where in the verse does it say that sharing a type of glory with his Father made him God’s equal. Jesus called his Father “the ONLY true God” (John 17:3) so obviously Jesus is not God Almighty. Also, when you mention Isaiah 42:8, in a very deliberate way, you don’t mention the rest of the scripture. It states, “I am the LORD, that is My name; And My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to CARVED IMAGES” (The New King James Version). It’s obvious that the giving or sharing of His glory is with carved images or idols. Please try to be more honest next time when quoting scripture.

I started studying New Testament Greek in high school and after a time began to see things that didn't line up well with what my preacher was saying. When I asked my mom about these things, she'd get mad at me for doubting the faith. My argument is that you can't have much faith in a doctrine when the supposed basis of that doctrine doesn't line up with it. On my own, I found that when you look strictly at the Greek of the New Testament and stop relying upon certain translations and theologies, the Bible seems to have more evidence AGAINST the concept of Jesus being YHWH in the flesh rather than for. The problem is that most people calling themselves Christians would rather argue and be right than take the time to give it a serious look and possibly find out that they might be wrong.
That is so true! While I disagree with much of Islam, to be honest, many the points raised about Jesus by Muslims are actually quite true according to the Christians' own book. During the time that I was in the middle of studying how Jesus isn't really God, I came across a Muslim pamphlet that gently mocked Christians for not understanding their Bible while delivering some good arguments against Jesus' divinity that were inline with what I had already found. I think it's funny that Christians jump to John 1:1 and try to use poor, made-up grammatical rules (such as Colwell's rule, which doesn't always apply), when John himself says in 20:30-31 exactly the message that he was trying to say, that "Jesus is the Messiah, the son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name". He does not say that Jesus is God, but that he is the son of God. Paul argues that we can becomes sons of God as well by seeking to be like Jesus. When someone calls Jesus "good teacher", Jesus responds by telling him that no one is good except one: God. Paul opens many of his letters by mentioning "the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ", which clearly separates them. Revelations opens by stating "The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants..." Did God give himself something? Isn't it so obvious? But I can go on and on. I have found (to my dismay at first) that the arguments FOR Jesus' divinity as being God in the Flesh are quite weak compared to the arguments against it.
“Blessed are you Simon bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you but my Father in heaven” …..a lucky and blessed man you are. Be happy and thank God.
Let us make man in our image... that verse resonates with me... God entity is in the form of three distinct beings.. a very unique entity nothing like anything we know of
If the Holy Spirit is a person, what is the power of the Holy Spirit? Is not the power of the Holy Spirit another person? The same logic will continue ad infinitum. Is God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit all equal as three persons? 1 Cor 15:28 speaks of the inequality of Jesus. Jesus acknowledged that the power of God worked through him and the power was of God. How can a force, or power be a person? I can understand how things are personified in the Bible, but personification does not alter the reality that the thing personified is nothing more than the thing it is, which is an "it".
Kings Warriors When God or anyone else refers to themselves as "us" or "we" they are using what is properly called the majestic plural or the plural of majesty. It does not denote a plurality of persons it denotes a plurality of power, authority, and prestige.
Faisal Siraj I'm not a trinitarian but Islam is just a perversion of Christianity. It was created by an illiterate man who knew nothing about scripture (Muhammad) and who contradicted everything Yeshua HaMashiach said.
Faisal Siraj You know what I meant. Almost everything. Like I said before, I don't believe in the trinity and there is no greater foe to the doctrine of the trinity than the Bible. If don't believe that Jesus is the Son of God, that he is our High Priest, the Messiah, and that he died for our sins, you have lost much intimacy with the one true God. Now I know it's not your fault (it's technically Muhammad's) but everyone has to come to the truth eventually. Ask yourself this: Did Muhammad believe Jesus is the Son of God? Did Muhammad believe Jesus is the Messiah? Did Muhammad believe that Jesus is our High Priest? Did Muhammad believe that Jesus died for our sins? Did Muhammad believe that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life and that no one comes to the Father except through him (John 14:6)? If the answer is no to one or all of these questions (it's all by the way), then Muhammad was a false prophet and an antichrist. Yeshua HaMashiach warned us of people like Muhammad: Matthew 24:24 For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect. Matthew 7:15-20 15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.16 You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?17 So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. 18 A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus you will recognize them by their fruits. What are Muhammad's fruits? Well lets see he raised up a group of people who early on invaded all of the Middle East, North Africa, the Iberian Peninsula, etc. Not to mention he contradicted the one true God and led billions away from the one true God. Not to mention the Apostle Paul warned us as well: 2 Corithians 11:3-4 3 But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ. 4 For if someone comes and proclaims another Jesus than the one we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it readily enough. I wish Muhammad would have read this one (if he could have read): Galatians 1:6-9 6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel- 7 not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we *or an angel from heaven* should preach to you any gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. 9 As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.
Faisal Siraj So you get it now... :) I mean that's pretty bad when you have a man claiming to a prophet of God yet he contradicts all of the true prophets before him. If you need me to explain the Godhead or anything like that I would be happy to explain it.

Yet, even being a true God John chapter 17 verse 3 a spirit John chapter 'by law' the Father is a man as God defined a man when he made Adam having his own material body with body parts and rhuach spirit-the Holy Spirit ofGod- within his God-body John chapter 8 verses 17-18.

God cannot die, yet Jesus was killed and then resurrected (Acts 5:30). The Bible does not say that only his “human nature” died; it says that Jesus died, which would include all of Jesus (100%).
Jesus is God and Man. 100% God and 100% Man. He is not a hybrid (50% God and 50% Man). His Divine Nature is completely distinct from his Human Nature. 1 Person, 2 Natures. The person of Jesus died but only his Human Nature died and not his Divine Nature. God can not die.

Gee, I don't know what came over me. Of course! That explains it. They are not three gods, they are three persons. Like, you're a person, I'm a person and someone else is a person, yet, we're all one, like truly one. God is a person, spirit is a person, and the son is a person. Jesus was a person that died. So for three days, the other two persons had to work overtime until the 3rd person came back to being god. God the Father is a person. God the spirit is a person. You, ".common try to looked at the verses and understand it." What is funny is that you want me to believe you or anyone else is capable of understanding the trinity. You're only fooling yourself, not me.
+2fast2block for you're own seek. ok Question: "How is the doctrine of the Trinity not tritheism?" Answer: The doctrine of the Trinity is at the very center of the Christian faith. That God is triune in nature is affirmed not only in Scripture but also in the early ecumenical creeds of the church-specifically, Nicaea (A.D. 325) and Constantinople (A.D. 381). The doctrine is essentially that God is one in being while existing as three co-equal, co-eternal Persons, namely, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. One often-heard objection to the Trinity is that the doctrine logically entails tritheism (a belief in three gods). But is this criticism valid? Is Trinitarian theology at odds with the clearly taught monotheism of the Hebrew Scriptures? Or did the early Christians get it right when they upheld the monotheism of the Old Testament while at the same time affirming the full deity of three distinct Persons? To answer this question, we need to look over the biblical data. The Bible clearly affirms that there is but one God (Isaiah 43:10; 1 Corinthians 8:4). In addition, the Bible teaches the deity of the Father (John 6:27; Romans 1:7; 1 Peter 1:2), the Son (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 1:2; Titus 2:13; Colossians 1:16-17), and the Holy Spirit (Acts 5:3-4; 1 Corinthians 3:16). Moreover, the biblical writers go out of their way to affirm that all three Persons are distinct from each other (Matthew 28:19; Romans 15:30; 2 Corinthians 3:14). So, while it is true that the word trinity is not found in the Bible, the concept most certainly is. Does the fact that there exist three divine Persons entail that there exist three separate gods? The answer is no. The same Scriptures that affirm that all three Persons of the Trinity are divine also unequivocally affirm monotheism (Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Timothy 2:5). So, what are we to do with this tension between the idea of three divine Persons and monotheism? A helpful clarification involves what we mean by the word person. PERSON can be defined as “a center of self-consciousness.” A person has a mind, emotions, and a will, can communicate with others, and is capable of performing actions. When we speak of the concept of personhood as it relates to the Trinity, we are describing self-distinctions in God. All three Persons of the one triune God possess the complete attributes of deity. All three Persons are truly divine, yet eternally distinct from one another. The divine Persons can and do communicate with each other (John 17:1-26; Hebrews 1:8-9). Essentially, God has three centers of self-consciousness. Yet this one Being (the triune God of Scripture) possesses one indivisible essence. There is only one Being that is God, and this one Being is tri-personal, with each of the three Persons having full possession of the divine nature.
I cringed for the Unitarians. Painful to watch. They were not only forcing their eieseges onto the text while ignoring or twisting passages they were challenged with; but they were sadly ignorant concerning Judaism and church history.
this was and awesome debate. two of my favorite apologist working together. (cant get any better than that) its kinda annoying how the unitarians beat around the bush. they remind me of biblical pharasees. may the lord bless them.
@22:30 well you have to utilize a Unitarian presupposition as you enter the New Testament because the Old Testament established a singular mindset of the person of God. Dr. White submits to us that the trinity was revealed in between the Testament therefore there's no need for a credal statement of the trinity in scripture but it allegedly permeates all of the New Testament. It seems pretty obvious that the presupposition of the trinity is read into and not out of scripture. Perhaps we should see Jesus as Paul puts it: "God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself" or maybe how Jesus himself put it: "The Father who lives in me he does his works."
Jordan Gardner - Wrong, the trinity comes from scripture, Brown explained it best, but what the Trinitarian failure to say is those are just titles of God, for God is One.
In the video description they don't even mention the names of "the two" who don't believe in the trinity doctrine. James White and Michael Brown's names are right up front as are their credentials (doctor), but you don't even get to know the name of "the two." That pretty much tells you everything you need to know.

The doctrine of Trinity is false. What Jesus said in John 17:3 and Paul in 1 Corinthians 8:5-6 is so clear. There is no concept that God is 3 in 1 in the Bible. God is the Father of Jesus Christ.
@ I also think of this passage from Philippians 2, which has sometimes been used as proof Paul counted Christ Jesus the Son of God as equal to The Father. But look again, to me it seems to say exactly the opposite, what do you think? "Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father." Now we have to ask ourselves, does this mean that Christ, being the Son of God WAS equal to the Father? Or does this mean that Christ was in every way a man, but being in the "form of God" Christ Jesus was Holy as the Father is Holy (1 Peter 1), righteous as He is righteous, and perfect as He is perfect (Matthew 5:48). Thus, being righteous Christ Jesus did not even contemplate or consider his equality with God, for His very essence and nature of goodness was from and of the Father. Thus, being humble and righteous rather than self-righteous, Christ never even CONSIDERED comparing himself as the EQUAL to the Father. Or am I wrong? Also important to note about Philippians 2:6 is that only the KJV translates the idea opposite to the one I quotes you from the ESV. According to the KJV, the correct translation was "thought it not robbery to be equal with God" which gives it a totally opposite meaning. It seems to indicate a trinitarian bias, but I could be wrong. Would love to hear back from you!

@@zachariah7114 Hi, my english is not that good and I dont fully understand your question, so I share this and that's how I understand Philippians 2:6: How can Jesus be God if His Father is Greater Than Him? What did Jesus mean when He said “my Father is greater than I” considering Paul also said that Jesus is equal with God? There is no contradiction in Scripture, so how do we reconcile these verses below? John 14:28 “You have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If you loved me, you would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN I.” 1 Corinthians 11:3 “But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the woman is the man; and THE HEAD OF CHRIST IS GOD.” Philippians 2:6 “Who, being in THE FORM OF GOD, thought it not robbery TO BE EQUAL WITH GOD: ”The Greek word (theotes) for Godhead in Colossians 2:9 means the divine nature. Thus the fullness of the divine nature of God dwells in His Son Jesus Christ. And the word “form” in Philippians 2:6 means “shape/nature,” and so Paul is saying that the way Christ is equal with His Father is in “nature” which He inherited being His Son. The word “greater” in John 14:28 refers to position in the same way it does with a human father and son as well as a husband and wife. 1 Corinthians 11:3 states that the head of the woman is man. But does this mean the husband is a superior being to his wife? The answer is an obvious no. She is a human being just as the man is and so they are equal in nature. The husband is greater than his wife only by position. The same applies to a father and son. The father is greater because he was first being the father, and the same applies to our Heavenly Father and His Son. The Father is greater in position in that He was first, but not greater in nature or form as Philippians 2:6 states.

Dr. James White asTony Stark

Priceless..
The important point there is you can differ *sharply* on more peripheral issues, but Christians will agree on *central* doctrines touching the heart of the Gospel itself.
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God John 1:1... the word and God are described as distinct separate persons and yet both Identified as God.....
Eric Velez , Am I the only one whom can understand grammatical english???? The text says the Word *was* God, past tense. To prove your point I would need to read the Word is God.
I read the scriptures provided and I don't see your point, The God mentioned is clearlythe Father, the scriptures you presented are talking about two separate beings one God the father and the other the Son of God read carefully .
Titus 2:13
Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
2 Peter 1:1-2
1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ:
2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord,
Romans 9:5
Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.
Revelation 1:6 and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father--to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen.
Here in Revelation 1:6 it says that Jesus has a God and Father what is your point?
REVELATION 1:6 and made us a kingdom, priests to *his God and Father*, to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen. IT SAID HIS GOD AND FATHER, CHRIST HAS A GOD AND A FATHER. I did ADDRESS John 1:1, It says the Word *was* God.
***** , I was using voice command but thankyou for pointing that out, I am busy so I apologize for the short responses, I will elaborate more later....So in the KJV it says "God and His Father". Even though pretty much every other bible version says "His God and Father", all of those are all wrong?...I will go with the KJV then just for you brother. Rev.1:6 in The KJV is stating God has a Father.Revelation 1:6 (KJV) And hath made us kings and priests unto *God and his Father*; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
SO CLEARLY THIS TEXT IS SAYING *GOD HAS A FATHER*....RIGHT???
***** , I have read the information you have provided carefully, it has taken me almost four days. Now concerning 1 Jn.5:7,
The text says there are three that testify, indicating the subject matter of the verse concerns a united witness between these three and there is no reason one should suppose it would imply anything else. 1 John 5:7 literally says, "and these three are one." The very next verse, concerning the Spirit and the water and the blood, literally says, "the three are unto the one" also translated "these three agree in one."meaning these too have a common and united testimony,witness. To be consistent, the Trinitarian advocate of 1 John 5:7 should also then conclude these three, the water, the Spirit, and the blood, are also a Trinity of one being. It is quite reckless to interpret this text as declaring the Father, Word and Holy Spirit are one God when all the verse says is the three are a united witness, one testimony. The oneness in question is a oneness of purpose and function, United in the record they bear, not a oneness of identity or ontology and substance of being. In other words, the three, the Father, the Word, and the Spirit are in one united agreement concerning their witness/testimony.
In a similar sense, Jesus prayed for this same unity of oneness between himself the Father and the church. We would not therefore assume these three are "God" or "One God."
John 17:20-23 I do not pray for these only, but also for those who believe in me through their word, *that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you*, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me. The glory which thou hast given me I have given to them, *that they may be one just as we are one*, I in them and you in me, that they may become *perfectly one*.
As we can see, Jesus prayed that he and the Father and all the disciples would be *one*. Shall we then suppose all these are God??? Of course not. And there is not reason to do so with 1 Jn.5:7 either. Both of these passages, John 17:20-23 and 1 John 5:7, are referring to function, not substance of being. This passage simply does not suggest a Triune God even if it was valid. It simply says that there are three who testify and these three are one. It also says the Spirit, water, and blood are one in the same sense. Neither of the two groups of three are to be understood one other thing(such as God), but as one unified testimony.
I am going to say that the Trinitarian side seems much more unified, well spoken and well studied. But let us all remember that a well presented argument does not always equal the truth. Please let us keep studying the Word of God for ourselves with humility and open, obedient hearts. God will never leave a true seeker in the dark.
I am a trinitarian, but well said :) Jesus said: 'Seek and ye shall find' and if I am seeking God, well then.... :)
... and where was the first trinitarian baptism?.. i only see unicitarian baptisms in the book of Acts.. when and where?
@@jacquesvoigt8239 jacques... but where was (in scripture) the first baptism ever recorded... take in mind that these churches in the new testament were not trinitarian, but unicitarian.... they didn't see God as a trinity but as a God w/ diverse manifestations.... so please... if its not in the scripture, then you guys are obligated to tell us WHAT CHURCH (outside the Biblical margin) baptized in the three names (or holy trinity).... IT WAS THE CATHOLIC CHURCH RIGHT?
@@jesus7es7dios7 “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the NAME [singular, my emphasis] of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit...” - Matthew 28:19
Boom.
@@michaeldukes4108 Matthew 28:19 is not an effectuated baptism... its the COMMISSION given by Jesus... Where in the scripture did such type of baptism occurred? in which of the seven churches in the Bible... or by which Apostle or Disciple in the Bible?....
Colossians 1:13-18 and Colossians 2:2-10 are very clear on the deity of Christ. This is why Paul wrote this letter to Colossae- there were wolves who had come into the church there speaking heresies about the nature of Christ. (I think it was the Gnostic's)
You are correct. Gnostics and Doecitists were two major theological heresies of that day.
This is not correct. The problem for the earliest believers wasn't whether Jesus was divine, but whether he was man. Pagans in the roman territories had zero problem with Jesus divinity, they struggled with his humanity. Read 1 John 4:2, John makes it obvious which thing the early church struggled with.
@@logicalcomrade7606 good point!
I wish James and Michael would team up for every debate. They are amazing together
Joel Splawn
It's true. It's good to see them working together in this case. They just happen to be on the opposite end of most other debates (modern gifts of healing, Calvinism vs Arminianism, etc.) but they fully recognize each other as brothers in Christ. They agree in the essentials of the faith (salvation by grace through faith in Christ, the Trinity, the authority of the Bible as scripture, etc.) but disagree on the "non-essentials" (or adiophra).
James is a nice guy.
kevin Mcdonald I am sure that you would probably say John Calvin was a very nice guy also.
kevin Mcdonald instead of saying James is a nice guy, let's just say that he is a smart feller.
Calvin was an idiot.
I'm a pre-incarnate believing Unitarian .
After meditating on the word; Yeshuah is Yahweh .
I don't know how , it's complicated but I know the spirit of truth.

Tell me more
Scripture>personal emotions. I know it’s hard.
May God, the kind and all seeing and knowing Vine dresser, prune us of all deception and incorrect thinking.
I have since changed to orthodox triune God . Either way as long as you understand Jesus is Jehovah in some way or another you're on the right path. Thank you Jesus.
@@Justadudeman22 I am amazed and curious at how you could have come to such a conclusion. Hopefully it’s based on evidence and not emotion.
No I can not say he is God literally in any sense. And I think Jesus himself would strongly dislike that as he loved his Father and wanted him to get the rightful attention and importance and dignity he deserves.
I can say he was Gods image for us in that he faithfully represented God to us and acted as his vessel, and in this way when we’ve seen him (which really means heard him/seen his actions) we’ve seen the Father.
@@youngknowledgeseeker
I am the first and the last
I am the shepherd
The glory I had with you before the world began
Honor me as you honor the father
He is sinless , which is impossible considering we are inclined to sin
Me and the Father are one
Etc etc
I saw God face to face (even though that would kill a man, they had to have seen Jesus)
I am the rock 🪨
I have received all authority on heaven and earth . That would mean God is sharing His glory (which he does not do)
He is the Spirit made flesh , the Word made flesh that dwells among us.
Baptize in the name of the Father Son Holy spirit . Again sharing Glory with the Father which the Father does not do .
Hear o Israel the Lord our God is one. The word one being Echad which is the same word used for when the man and women become one(same word Echad) flesh.
Let Us make man in Our image.
It goes on.
3 persons in one being.
There are three witnesses in heaven The Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost and these three are one.
Over and over sharing Glory with the Son .
There is no other savior but God. Jesus is God Jehovah the Father , Son, Holy Spirit . Three persons in one being.
God is love , love needs a giver and receiver , one cannot love themselves there is only being .
This is all I've learned so far as I have not read the whole bible yet.
James white does great debates about it.
The spirit of God in the flesh of Jesus is God not the flesh .
Human language falls short of explanation of the triune God.
I hope you can see from the scripture He is fact the Son of God only begotten(unique) which has shared the glory with the Father since before the world began .
It took me a whole year to wrestle with this.
Again speaking of wrestling Jacob wrestled with God and broke his bone. Either you take this figuretly or literal if you take it literal jacob had to wrestle with Jesus being in the form of man in order to wrestle with Jacob.
This is why studying scripture is SO important!
I agree, we need to hear all sides of the debate, which is why I recommend reading “Jesus’ Biological Father was Joseph: According to the New Testament” (DS WAGGONER), too. This cites the birth narratives from the King James Version, then points out how Rome added words and events, and in some cases, superimposed over certain words, to arrive at a Virgin Birth story. If you haven’t read it, it’s mind-bending!
there are explicit passages calling Jesus the only God... unitarian's response: I don't accept these arguments. 🤣
Men were called God in scripture. Event the Israelite council in Psalms 82. Jesus points this out and rejected being called God (John 10:31-39).
Romans 1:21-23 rejects the trinity
1 Corinthians 15:23-28 destroys the trinity.
Isaiah 6 is a prophecy. Jesus is seen in a vision. God has never been seen (1 John 4:12).
Yet Jesus did not put himself as God. He worshipped God. Jesus is called God by Thomas as a King just like Solomon was called God in Psalms 45.
Am I the only one who loves the way Dr Brown makes his defense effortlessly with a smile?
He is incredible...
oh yes, as he knows he just slam dunked their arguments.
His smile always looks sinister.
He’s the absolute best
I was thinking that to myself the whole time I watched him
While watching debates it is always quite clear what side God is backing in my opinion. You can see it in the way things are presented, in the clarity, conviction, texts used etc. On the unitarian side you can see to separate men making individual presentations, repeating the same points over again instead of bringing fresh ones or textual supports, and I wont comment on their individual demeanors. On the trinitarian side you see multiple texts, correct use of sources and the original languages, and a tremendous unity between the two. You can see how their presentations flow together seamlessly and are of one thought. United and clear.
... except where Michael Brown said that the Son is the Father.
Let scripture guide you, not appearances. Mr. Buzzard did not get a partner of his choosing…that’s all I’ll say.
Professor James White writes, “We hang a person’s very salvation upon the acceptance of the (Trinitarian) doctrine… We must know, understand, and love the Trinity to be fully and completely Christian” (James White, The Forgotten Trinity, 1998, pp. 14-15).
Is it humanly possible from a biblical standpoint to truly understand the Trinity?
“It has proved impossible for Christians actually to understand the doctrine or to explain it in any comprehensive way. The doctrine of the Trinity…surpasses our human ability to understand and that must be respected as a divine mystery” (Harold Brown, Heresies: Heresy and Orthodoxy in the History of the Church, 2003, p. 128). Are you confused by the doctrine of the Trinity? Know this, “God is not the author of confusion” (1 Corinthians 14:33). Martin Luther preached, “It is indeed true that the name ‘Trinity’ is nowhere to be found in the Holy Scriptures, but has been conceived and invented by man” (The Sermon’s of Martin Luther, Vol. 3, 1988, p. 406).
Where in the Bible does it tell us that you must believe in the Trinity to be saved?
“The formal doctrine of the Trinity as it was defined by the great church councils of the fourth and fifth centuries is not to be found in the NT” [New Testament] (The HarperCollins Bible Dictionary, 1996, see “Trinity”). “Many doctrines are accepted by evangelicals as being clearly taught in the Scripture for which there are no proof texts…It is fair to say that the Bible does not clearly teach the doctrine of the Trinity… In fact, there is not even one proof text, if by proof text we mean a verse or passage that clearly states that there is one God who exists as three persons” (Professor Charles Ryrie, Basic Theology, 1999, p. 89).
According to history, “There is no evidence that the apostles of Jesus ever heard of the trinity-at any rate from him” (H.G. Wells, The Outline of History, Vol. 2, p. 499).
Are we to understand that the Trinitarian doctrine is so important to our salvation that believing the doctrine is essential to receiving eternal life? What of the apostles and disciples who never heard of the Trinity? How could our Lord and Savior neglect such a fundamental truth required for our salvation?
It's amazing that the Unitarians just ignore the holy scriptures. They clearly say Jesus Christ is God is the flesh. Jesus Christ is the great I AM Exodus 3:14---John 8:58. Isaiah 9:6, Isaiah 44:6, Zechariah 12:10, Zechariah 14:9, Acts 20:28, John 1:1, John 1:14, John 2:18-21, Matthew 1:23, 1 John 1:1-2 Eternally existed with the Father, Genesis 1:26, Genesis 3:22 no angels involved here, Hebrews 8:10, Hebrews 1:8-10, Revelation 1:8, Revelation 1:11, Revelation 2:2, 22:12-13, 1 Timothy 3:16, Jude 1:25, John 20:28, Titus 2:13. And i could keep going on and on the triune nature of God. Jesus Christ is God in the flesh, and no has refuted Dr. Brown or Dr. White. Also, some of the Unitarians comments are mind boggling. You're blind to the Holy Scriptures, and I'm not saying that to be mean, but it's true. Read all of the Holy Scriptures!
RIGHTEOUSNESS OF CHRIST I guess they just sadly ignore all those verses like you said, or twist them just like the Jehovah’s Witnesses
Trust Jesus Yes brother, I agree. Not only Jehovah Witnesses, but Mormons, HRM, etc. It's mind boggling that People reject the triune of God, its everywhere in the Holy Scriptures. You might have already done this, but next time you talk to a Jehovah Witness, show them John 2:18-22, and you can even use their bible, it's another Trinity or Godhead verse. I see it everywhere, that more people are denying the Lord Jesus Christ's deity, and the triune nature of God, but I think it's part of the great falling way talked about in the book of Thessalonians. Peoples excuses are, The Trinity came from the RCC, and that's so ridiculous. Jesus said himself he is the great I AM, Exodus 3:14----John 8:58. God bless brother, Keep fighting the good fight.
They spent a lot of time quoting books outside of the Bible. The refused to stick to scripture because scripture does not fit their narrative.
The point of the New Testament isn’t that Jesus is God, but that he is the Anointed one of God. Perhaps you should re read the Gospels, while asking yourself honestly who they are teaching that Jesus is.
1 Corinthians 15:20-29 explains the authority given to Jesus by YHWH and that it doesn't include YHWH and that Jesus will bow to YHWH when he is finished doing his Fathers will.
Deut 18:18-19 explains the word being God. Not Jesus.
Genesis 1:26 YHWHs speaking to/about Adam and Eve that is the only time he uses plural form when speaking about making mankind. Only YHWH rested on day seven... Where's Jesus just one day later? Or on day 5,4,3,2,1
All scripture you referenced can be refuted by scripture in context.
Keep in mind the shema, Deut 6:5 always when reading Scripture. Don't forget Numbers 23:19!👍
May YHWH bless you! 🙏
I prefer this debate on pronouns over the ones we're having now 7 years later😅

these non trinitarians are really not lead by the Spirit and are so misinformed. And they keep referencing books outside the Holy Scriptures to make their points. Lord help them .
Kyle Davis what??? You have no idea what your saying.
Neither does referencing nothing but the New Testament, which was written long after Jesus was here. There is a reason Judaism is monotheistic and is the earliest scriptures on God. Dont let Western interpretations skew your view.
Did you even watch the debate? They made dozens of scriptural references. On top of that, to say someone is not lead by the Spirit is bad but somehow makes you think you're spiritually superior.
I agree Kyle.
I just debated a foremost Trinitarian. The Scripture was clearly on my side, so he kept trying to get me to look at commentaries. He had no answer for the questions I asked him.
The center of the debate was around John 17:5. John 17:5 is clearly talking about God's foreknowledge of the suffering servant and his subsequent glorification. To show this, I had him look at John 17:24, which uses similar language, and then at 1 Peter 1:20, which uses the same language as in John 17:24, and 1 Peter 1:20 clearly says that the Son was foreknown, and the same Greek word that means foreknown in 1 Peter 1:20 is also used in Romans 8 to refer to believers that God foreknew. He had no answer for this. He just wanted me to read commentaries on John 17:5, which, of course, are Trinitarian and thus agree with him. If you have a strictly Scriptural debate, you will find that the Trinity is not Scriptural. I've studied all of the verses on this, and if anyone has questions, please ask. Also, I do believe that Jesus is the incarnation of God. But there was not eternally a distinct person called God the Son. That is not found anywhere.
Jesus: "I am the alpha and the omega. The first and the last.The beggining and the end."
Would a mere prophet made this claims? Jesus is God.
You are correct. These people who quote a verse or two to support their argument have not considered all the verses that say the opposite. A balanced approach is to look at all the verses on a particular subject that are interpreted one way or another, and then to harmonize all the verses. If nine out of ten verses agree on one thing, then the one out of ten verses has to be harmonized, or left on one side until and explanation can be found to bring it into harmony. The overall harmony of the scriptures does not lead teach the pre-existence of Jesus, or the Trinity.
tadm123 You say that Jesus is God... so... is His Father the Father of God? :-)
the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” (Rev 1:8).
Colossians 1:18 "And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy."
In these two verses, the explanation of Alpha and Omega is given. Alpha meaning the firstborn from among the dead, from where the beginning is.
And Omega the end of the world, when the mighty God, is to come to judge mankind..

@@aaronquinn6626 No. I'm a Christian and just trying to help by using logic. If Jesus is Son of God, it simply denies his Godship. "Son of God" has a meaning... that the person with this title is not God. Jesus clearly stated that the only true God is Father - his God, our God. Jesus never claimed Godship as it would be not only nonsensical but also against his preaching where he follows Father's will, not own.

If group of people are working in unity, then it does not mean that they are one in physical nature. They are distinct individuals that work with one purpose
Agreed Reynaldo.
Well put . As we become one in unity in a marriage
Perhaps I may be wrong here, but i think this holds:
What you say may be true in the relationships between people, but should precisely the same logic be applied to God? I don't think so. It's like to be one with the Father means to work perfectly with Him, having the same will, etc. But this is not possible if one is a created being, for God cannot create someone or something which has equal power; there are some things that even an omnipotent God cannot do, like making rock too heavy for Him to lift, or creating a married bachelor. Our wills can be aligned to those of the Father perfectly as it will be in heaven, but this is only through Christ. And if through Christ who is one with the Father I can come to the Father, even when I see Jesus I see the Father, then Jesus is God with the Father. This is by necessity, for it is not created things we are dealing with here, but the very nature of God Himself, who being infinite cannot be known except by someone who is also infinite.
This should make sense, but it is very late that I am writing this and it is after all a TH-cam comment.
God bless you! (The One God complex in unity as Brown says)
Unity can't be equated to personhood! The Trinitarian theory just creates confusion whereas our God is pretty clear & straightforward! How can there be 1 God in 3 persons and each distinct...and if all three are deities...then it drifts into polytheism!
God is monotheistic! How can you have one God submissive to the other! Doesn't make sense! God gave man Creation! To manage & walk with Him in Spirit, Truth & Obedience! Man dropped the ball with his disobedience and ushered sin into a perfect world! God gave us Christ! To redeem & save us to His Glory! And we have distorted the very being of Christ by deifying him. Christ was the perfect son of God that Adam wasn't. He was born of the Spirit to be sinless in this world and not like from the actual lineage of Man to be born in sin.
They are one in essence. You are ascribing human theology to God.
What I find interesting is.., trinitarians call the Roman Catholic Church false but believe in a vote taken at the council of Naceana for a trinity God. The vote was very close. So, then priest
tell uneducated people how to believe. But, people still did not believe on a wide scale, not even close to a majority. Not until around the year 650 ad. Why, hundreds of years of uneducated people just were brainwashed into believing the strong hold of the Roman Catholic Church. Then today preachers still insist on the trinity and how do they explain what was never mentioned in the Bible.., it’s a mystery.., cannot be explained and as a few preachers state.., they don’t want to serve a explainable God. Are you really serious...!!!!!????? Then they try to force down your throat.., if you don’t believe in the trinity.., you’re going to Hell. What they are also saying.., the 1st 650 years after the resurrection that all the people who never believed this, they are all in Hell, maybe 2 billion people. All trinitarian Christians do is throw everyone into Hell. Weird but true, but it turns out trinitarian Christians are the evil doers. How sad...!
"the vote was really close"?? www.americamagazine.org/issue/575/article/real-story-council-nicea
This is false. There were around 300 bishops at the Council of Nicaea and only 2 didn't sign the resulting creed. The Trinitarian position was absolutely the overwhelming majority position of the early Church.

the Unitarianian lost the debate at tape time 52:55 when Dr. Buzzard admitted that the Lord Jesus was called God. the scripture, Psalms 45:6 and its confirmation in Hebrews 1:8 & 9. that was the first mistake, but he compounded his mistake by adding emphasis to the fact, trying to cover up his mistake by calling the Lord Jesus God, he said, "the Lord Jesus have a God over him". that's a dilemma. for if the Lord Jesus is called God, and then have a God over him, then you have TWO GODs. and Dr. Buzzard preach against 2, or 3 Gods as he say, 2 or 3 Yahweh. but here admits two God, one over another God. and that's against scripture, Isaiah 43:10 "Ye are my witnesses, saith the LORD, and my servant whom I have chosen: that ye may know and believe me, and understand that I am he: before me there was no God formed, neither shall there be after me”. and Dr. Buzzard states that the WORD, the Messiah came after, or Later when Mary birth him. that in itself nullifies the Unitarianism doctrine, for it violates Isaiah 43:10. for if the Lord Jesus came after, or later on, then Isaiah 43:10 is comprise by saying a "God" was formed "AFTER". NO GOD IS BEFORE, OR "AFTER" HIM. nor is there a God beside him, which comprise the Trinitarian doctrine also, so again, both doctrine is in ERROR.

Nope
Edward Pierce GINOLJC, Oh yes, the Unitarianian lost the debate when Dr. Buzzard admitted that the Lord Jesus was called God in Hebrews 1:8. and he embarrassed himself by applying a God on top of him. how ignorant could he be to make such a statement like that. when one put another God, or god on top of the almighty, that's not only blasphemy, but also polytheistic in nature. so that is the failure of the unitarianian position. It make no difference how many times God is reference to as the father, (whom the Lord Jesus really is, in his natural state Spirit), it takes only one reference to nullify all those other misunderstood, and men wisdom of ignorance reference to the father as God. as I been saying, the Lord Jesus is the "diversity", or the OFFSPRING of himself in flesh. the scriptures, old and new testaments proves that out. but cheer up, because both position unitarianian, and trinitarian positions are in ERROR. the Lord Jesus is God, (the Holy Spirit), the Father, the ROOT, without flesh, Old Testament. and Son, shared, "diversified", in flesh, the OFFSPRING,. hence the terminology, the root and the offspring, the alpha and the omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end, who is the SAME ONE, and ONLY PERSON, the HOLY SPIRIT, (smile).

As a former atheist who’s recently been exploring Christianity, this stuff is fascinating. Right now I’m leaning toward the trinity but obviously am open to the truth wherever it comes from.
Anyone who searches for truth must go to Jesus. Do not worry just read the teaching of Jesus and you will know the truth, and Jesus is truth himself.
Here is a fact- Jesus denies Trinity!
@Saint DragonThus saith Jehovah, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am Jehovah that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;- Isaiah 44:24
In mark 12:29-30
29Jesus answered him, “The first of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, Jehovah our God, Jehovah is one.
30 And you shall love Jehovah your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.
32 So the scribe said to Him, "Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth, for there is one God, and there is no other but He.
33 And to love Him with all the heart, with all the understanding, with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one's neighbor as oneself, is more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices."
34 Now when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, He said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God."- mark 12:32-34.
Jesus said Jehovah is the one true God and he commanded to love him. Likewise the scribe also said there is just one God, not 3 in 1.
Jesus also said
3And this is eternal life, that they may know You, the only true God, and Jesus Christ whom You have sent.- John 17:3

Mr. Buzzard meant John6:50-51,58…..
The bread of life that comes from heaven is His flesh (symbolical)...
YHWH is eating and speaking to Abraham in human form, then He says He will rain down fire from YHWH in heaven, 2 persons. No one is arguing against that. Why is it ok that YHWH is 2 persons, but He cannot be 3? And why would it be ok to Unitarians that YHWH can be in human form for half a day, yet He simply cannot dwell in human form for 33 years?
Oftentimes, in the OT when someone would send messengers in their place it would be said that you spoke with the one that sent them. To argue that YHWH actually sat with and talked with Abraham makes the scripture out to be a lie. Jesus Himself said that no one has seen the father, yet you claim that Abraham spoke with and ate with yhwh?
Deut 6:5 is clear there is only one YHWH.
So Genesis 18.... it says YHWH twice I agree, but there is only ONE as per scripture. When I looked into the Hebrew of Genesis 18 I learned about the 'Mark of accusative' which seems to mean, saying the same thing in two ways.
This makes more sense because we are told over and over and over again there is only one Almighty God.

It’s appropriate to worship Jesus, because of his sacrifice. He is the go-between as the “mediator” for the world and our “advocate” as the church class.

Through him we, in our lowly and filthy condition, are able to approach the Creator of the Universe. Without him, we would continue to die until we all extinguished ourselves. See Philippians 2:8-11. It’s all about God’s plan and Jesus’ sacrifice.

@@Nikzww187 Jesus existed before he was a human. He was only in the flesh for a time here with us. Jesus is the word of God and the word of God is uncreated.

This is why the bible states in the beginning was the word, and the word was with God (the father) and the word WAS GOD.

bo ang 1 Timothy 2:5 is about as clear as you can get, note that I do not believe that Christ was just an ‘agent’ he was the unique son of God but he was clearly GIVEN the Holy Spirit (that is Gods power - not a seperate being) and he gave up this Spirit when he died

ONCE again Dr. Michael Brown / Dr. James White crushes them.... Just use the WORD it clearly explains that Yeshua was in the beginning... YES it is complex BUT the word explains it. :
In the beginning was the word the word was with God and the word was God.
+GetMooreProductions You, "In the beginning was the word" and "the word was with God and the word was God."
Ok, let's use your "logic" with the trinity way.
In the beginning was God the Son.
and God the Son was with God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit,
and God the Son was God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit.
Makes no sense to me, does it to you? It must because you said, "Just use the WORD it clearly explains that Yeshua was in the beginning... YES it is complex BUT the word explains it. : "
Let's try another trinity way:
It the beginning was God the Son,
and God the Son was with God the Father,
and God the Son was God the Father.
For me, 2 Tim 2:15 says we should have no need to be ashamed of our study of God's word. What trinitarians do is shameful to me for such "study". But you're happy with it. That is why three 100% gods to you only make one god. It is shameful to be so illogical but not to you.
What i can't understand the logic if God said you shall have no others GOD besides me, YET Unitarians believe it's ok to pray to YESHUA. and he's just the messiah and slightly under God... How is that logical?? How is that not worship??
Okay here's one for you God said: Let's make man in our own image, who was he speaking to? In Rev when he said: i am the alpha the omega which was which is to come. Yet that whole passage is about Yeshua coming to earth to rule again - He said which was / which was is a past tense.
I love how ppl try to box God, how can he not come into his own creation? He's God he can do whatever he wants. Your logic makes no sense at all... We have one God / his holy spirit / Yeshua manifested into man. YET still ONE,
And i find it funny how the bible says shall cling to a wife and become one flesh yet there's still 2 ppl. Then you tell God NOPE you cant do that and be complex... Let the scripture speak for itself. I said word as in scripture in one part and then word as in
Yeshua the 2nd part.
+GetMooreProductions Look, if you want an exchange, don't ignore what you brought up and I responded to.
I'll repeat what was said below. Deal with it or have a one-way conversation with yourself.
You got nailed on your logic that YOU brought up about the beginning of John, the trinitarian go-to verses. Now that you're nailed on that, you want to jump to other verses. Remember you said, "Just use the WORD it clearly explains that Yeshua was in the beginning... YES it is complex BUT the word explains it. : In the beginning was the word the word was with God and the word was God."'
No, your trinity does not explain it. As I just shown it shows how foolish your formula is. Notice you didn't care. You don't care about things not fitting and being not logical. Why do you keep on pretending to want to use reason when you clearly have no regard for reasoning? You have no problem even with your conclusion of three 100% gods equalling one. It is impossible to be logical with illogical people such as yourself.

So your logic of understanding is very limited. YOU think you nailed me b/c you replaces the WORD with son. So therefore you got me? This is coming from a mans understanding that it's okay to pray to Yeshua just as a messiah. HOLD UP! what about the other Mashiach's in the bible y not pray to them??? B/c it's idolatry, that's y. Your understanding of scripture is one eye closed (as Dr. White) would say...
LISTEN i don't even have to use the word trinity at all to understand the levels God has presented himself. At this point your talking in circles.
I pray that your salvation isn't on the line here...
+GetMooreProductions You, "So your logic of understanding is very limited. YOU think you nailed me b/c you replaces the WORD with son. So therefore you got me?"
Oh, so it wasn't the god the son? Look if you can't even argue, at least be honest. If you don't like what the trinity formula does, don't blame me for showing the reality of it.
You, "Your understanding of scripture is one eye closed (as Dr. White) would say.."
You're the one that closed both eyes to what you brought up and your trinity formula doesn't make sense in where you said does. You're like all trinitarians, nail them on the verse(s) they bring up, and they immediately want to bring up other topics and verses to distract from their foolishness of what they got nailed on in their previous "proof".
You, " At this point your talking in circles."
No, what I showed you about your first John and how you said to read it, is a foolish circle. You wish to accuse me of what you're doing.
You, "I pray that your salvation isn't on the line here... "
Why would it be? I believe in one true God. You believe in three. You can't even be honest enough to admit that three 100% gods are three 100% gods, not one. I keep saying, it is impossible to be logical with people who have a love for being illogical. Your "study" yields an impossible conclusion. Live with it. You accepted it, not me.
Jesus said to Samaritan women: "You Samaritans worship what you do not know; We Worship What we Do Know, for salvation is from the Jews." Jesus is Not claiming here that the Jews Did not understand the full Nature of God, rather he emphatically states that "we [including Jesus] worship what WE KNOW". Jesus, in Mark 12:29 stated oneness of God which is the Shema found in Deuteronomy 6:4 and Jews agreed with Jesus. It is clear that Jesus worshiped God whom he called "Father". The Father of Jesus is the God of both Old Testament and New Testament. According to Jesus' own mouth, the Father is the "Only True God" (John 17:3), "who alone is God" (John 5:44), and "who is Lord of heaven and earth" (Matthew 11:25). It is the Almighty Father who is the Father and God of Jesus, and also our Father and God (John 20:17).
+Gold Diamond Jesus is saying that to the Samaritan woman in a general sense in that the Jews, worshiped God. Not him. There is nowhere in scripture where it says that Jesus worshiped the Father. He is talking about the Jewish religion as opposed to theirs.
"for salvation is of the Jews."
As for Mark 12:29. Paul uses the Shema in 1 Cor 8:6 for both the Father and the Son. "we have but ONE God the Father, and *onelord* Jesus Christ."
Mark 12:29 contains "one lord" in it. "Hear O Israel, The Lord (Jesus Christ) our God (The Father) is *one lord.* "
If the Son is the not God, then the Father can't be "Lord" by your own standards. Marr 11:25.
As for John 20:17, the Father calls the Son "God" in Heb 1:8. So they call each other God because they are.
+preto shohmoofc guy
Jesus clearly has a God whom he calls "Father". God being called "Father" is found in the Old Testament as well. Jesus emphatically stated in John 4:22 that "WE" [including himself] "WORSHIP" whom we [Jews] know. The phrase "for salvation is of the Jews" simply means that God's message of Salvation has "first" come to the Jews [Jesus is a Jew too]. As Apostle Paul states in Romans 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes: FIRST TO THE JEW, then to the Gentile". Also Acts 3:26 states: "When God raised up his servant, he sent him FIRST to you [Jews] to bless you by turning each of you from your wicked ways."
Mark 12:29 and Deuteronomy 6:4 DOES NOT remotely suggest that it includes Jesus. This is an erroneous interpretation of the Trinitarians and Oneness to show that it includes Jesus or that Jesus is the Father. The Shema of Israel is about the "Oneness" of God, who is known as the "Father" in the Old Testament as well (See: Deuteronomy 32:6, Isaiah 64:8, Malachi 2:10, Isaiah 63:16).
It seem that you are unaware that Father/God is LORD (capitals) and Jesus is "Lord" in the English Bibles, to make distinction. Apostle Paul states in 1 Corinthians 8:5-6: "For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as indeed there are many "gods" and many "lords"), yet for us there is but ONE GOD, THE FATHER, from whom all things came and for whom we live; and there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we live". Jesus is "Lord", Not "LORD GOD". Perhaps you do not know that Jesus was "MADE" Lord. In Acts 2:36 it states: "Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has MADE this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah." Therefore your statement: "If the Son is the not God, then the Father can't be "Lord" by your own standards. Marr 11:25." is illogical and wrong.
Sadly your interpretation of Hebrew 1:8 is pagan. It literally makes "Two Gods" calling each other "God". Firstly, the phrase "But about the Son he says" as it appear in bible in Hebrew 1:8 DOES NOT exist in Greek manuscripts. This is deliberately added by the translators to make it look as if "God" is directly saying these things about Jesus, and calling him "Capital-G God". But this verse is actually quotation of Psalm 45:6, where King David is the one who is saying these things!. King David calls Messiah "elohim" in his prophetic visionary experience.
The word "elohim" can mean "gods", "God", "god" and it is used of "angels" and "men" as well as God. In the Hebrew culture, anyone who has been given great authority by God to represent Him was called "elohim", meaning "god" (Psalm 82:1,6). Now read from Psalm 45:6-7: "Your throne, "elohim" [god, mighty one] is forever and ever. The scepter of your kingdom is a scepter of uprightness; YOU HAVE LOVED RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HATED WICKEDNESS. Therefore "elohim" [god], YOUR GOD [eloheka, Almighty God in Context] has ANOINTED YOU with the oil of gladness beyond your companions..". God DID NOT anoint God or Himself!. This passage is about the Messiah [who can be called "god" or "elohim" in the Hebrew culture] who "loved righteousness and hated wickedness" and was "anointed" by Almighty God to function as Lord Messiah.
Whether one like it or not, but Jesus has a God whom he praise and worship according to the Bible, and no one can change this truth!!. Jesus calls his Father "God" in the New Testament. Anyone [including Jesus] who understand that there is a higher power or supreme being who is above all that exist will call that being "God", an object of praise and worship. And this is what Jesus does, he calls his Father "God" [both before and after resurrection]. I will leave some verses for you, and I hope that you will realize that Jesus is Not God, but is the "Son OF God" as it is emphatically stated in the Bible.
" keep asking that the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the glorious Father, may give you the spirit of wisdom and revelation, so that you may know him better". (Ephesians 1:17)
"And has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father- to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen". (Revelation 1:6)
"Him who overcomes I will make a pillar in the temple of my God. Never again will he leave it. I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which is coming down out of heaven from my God; and I will also write on him my new name". (Jesus calls Father "his God", even after resurrection and ascension to heaven). (Revelation 3:12).
"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead." (1 Peter 1:3)
"Jesus said to her, “Stop clinging to me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren, and say to them, ‘I ascend to my Father and your Father, and my God and your God.’” (John 20:17)
"Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort." (2 Corinthians 1:3).
"At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, "I praise you, Father, LORD of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children. Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do." (Luke 10:21)
"A certain ruler asked him, "Good teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life? "Why do you call me good?" Jesus answered. "No one is good--except God alone." (Luke 18:19)
"How can you believe since you accept glory from one another but do not seek the glory that comes from the only God?" (John 5:44).
"Now this is eternal life: that they know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." (John 17:3)

a. Hebrew 1:8 DOES exist in Greek manuscripts. That's a lie.
And the Father has a God when he declared his Son to Be God.
Heb 1:8
But unto the Son he says, "Your throne O God.."
b. The subject of John 4:22 was the Jewish Nation in general. You need to find me a better verse. This one does not work on me. Can you not find me a verse where Jesus worships God?
No? Wow!
c. The subject of 1 Cor 8:6 is the Shema. This is why he introduces "there is no God but one." in 1 Cor 8:4.
This phrase is only ever used to describe the Shema. Take Mark 12:29 for example:
After the scribe quotes the Shema in Mark 12:29 he confirms the Shema by making this quote to Jesus in vs. 32, "He is one, and there is no one else besides him."
Jesus didn't say this, the Scribe did. This is why Jesus said to him in Vs. 34. "You are not *far* from the kingdom of God."
He didn't tell him that he was correct, but on the right track.
d. Elohim is not singular, but plural. "im" in Hebrew is plural.
Examples:
Ephra im translates as "multiple blessings".
What is an angel?
Answer: cherub.
What's another kind of angel?
Answer: seraph
What do you call many cherubs?
Answer: cherub[im] seraph[im].
Elohim is plural but when it is used can be translated in the singular. Just like "God".
It really means, "godS". But just like the Trinity we say "God". Singular.
The rest I'll leave for another topic.

You wrote: "Hebrew 1:8 DOES exist in Greek manuscripts. That's a lie.". When did I say that Hebrews 1:8 does not exist in Greek manuscripts??. It seems that you are not paying attention when you read. I said that the phrase "but unto the Son HE SAYS" as it appears in English bibles DO NOT exist in Greek manuscripts. The words "he says" was deliberately ADDED by the translators to make it look like as if God is calling Son "Capital-G" God. You also wrote: "And the Father has a God when he declared his Son to Be God". What!. Almighty Father "has a God" ??. One thing I can tell you that you are Not Trinitarian, if you claiming to be. In Trinitarian doctrine, only Son [Jesus] has a God [as a man, as they say] and Not Father. To say that "Father has a God" denotes that there is a power which is higher than Father. Again, it is your wrong reasoning that is unable to see that God is NOT the speaker in Hebrew 1:8 [which is a quotation of Psalm 45:6]. Psalm 45:6 is believed by some to be written by King David (some think it was written by Solomon). But the person who wrote Psalm 45:6 is the speaker who says in Psalm 45:6-7 "Your throne, God [Elohim], is forever and ever; A scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Your kingdom. You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; Therefore God [Elohim], Your God [Eloheka], has anointed You With the oil of joy above Your fellows". Here it is clear that someone is getting "anointed", because "he loved righteousness and hated wickedness". This is a clear reference to the Messiah (not Almighty God). I wrote to you before that in the Bible the word "elohim" can mean "gods", "God", "god" and it is used of "angels" and "men", it is also used for a "single" pagan deities in the Old Testament (See: 1 Kings 11:5, Judges 11:24, 2 Kings 1:2). Also, one has to consider the "context" and the "verb" [whether singular or plural] to properly translate the word "elohim". Notice, a single person "Moses" in exodus 4:16 and 7:1 is called "elohim". Now, would this make Moses "Almighty God" since he is called "elohim" ?. You are trying to ignore the fact that in the Hebrew culture, anyone who has been given great authority by God to represent Him was called "elohim", meaning "god" (Psalm 82:1,6).
Even Jesus claimed to be "god" NOT "Almighty God" in John 10:34, where he quoted Psalm 82:6, where Judges of Isarel were called "gods" and "Sons of God". Each of those human Judge were "god" and collectively they were "gods" functioning as "representatives" of God.
You have an interpretation of Hebrews 1:8, where you have literally "Two Gods", and One God anoints other God, because the other God [Jesus] "loved righteousness and hated wickedness". Sadly this sounds pure paganism. God DID NOT anoint God or Himself!. Again I say, that this passage is about the Messiah [who can be called "god" or "elohim" in the Hebrew culture] who "loved righteousness and hated wickedness" and was consequently "anointed" by Almighty God to function as Lord Messiah. Acts 10:38 states: "GOD ANOINTED Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, BECAUSE GOD WAS WITH HIM". God anointed Jesus of Nazareth [as fulfillment to the prophecy found in Psalm 45:6-7]. The notion as if Capital-G God anointed other Capital-G God is really absurd.
Please don't twist and divert what is being discussed about John 4:22 in an attempt to escape the fact that Jesus tells plainly to the Samaritan women that "WE [including himself] WORSHIP whom we know". You say that subject of John 4:22 was Jewish nation. So is Jesus not part of the Jewish nation?, is he not King of the Jews?. Jesus "includes" himself with his brethren [Jews] by saying that "We" know whom we worship. In the same way Jesus says in John 3:11 to Nicodemus: "Very truly I tell you, WE [including himself with others] speak of what WE know, and we testify to what WE have seen.." As Jesus "worships" Father in spirit and truth, he desires everyone to worship Father in spirit and truth (John 4:24).
The fact that Jesus calls Father "God" with his own mouth [both before and after resurrection] is of No significance to you?. All those verses that I gave you and many other verses in the Bible where Father is Jesus' God is of no significance to you?. Common sense dictates that anyone [including Jesus] who understand and believe that there is a higher power or supreme being who is above all that exist will call that power or being "God", an object of praise and worship. Jesus calls Father "God". Trinitarianism has blinded many people to this simple thing.
In 1 Corinthians 8:6, "ONLY" the Father is being spoken as "God". It states: "...to us there is One God, THE FATHER..". Jesus is "Lord" in 1 Corinthian 8:6, because God "MADE" him to be Lord and Messiah (See Acts 2:36).
Shema of Israel is about the Oneness of God, and only the Father is being spoken as God of Jesus and God of all. Jesus is the Son of God and representative of God, who can be called "god" in Hebrew culture, but NOT Almighty God.
I hope that you will realize sooner or later that the things that you believed about Jesus and nature of God were all based upon wrong interpretation and assumptions.

A. You said to me and I quote:
"the phrase "But about the Son he says" as it appear in bible in Hebrew 1:8 DOES NOT exist in Greek manuscripts. This is deliberately added by the translators to make it look as if "God" is directly saying these things about Jesus, and calling him "Capital-G God". "
End quote.
But you've been lied to. The phrase But unto the Son he says, " IS IN THE MANUSCRIPTS and I will prove it.
This is The Codex Sinaiticus one of the oldest and complete Manuscripts that we have in existence and * λεγει "He says"."he says," ειπεν * are present in the Manuscript. It starts in vs. 5 and continues on right into vs. 13. From vs. 5 to vs. 13 the author of Hebrews has included quotes from the Father.
codexsinaiticus.org/en/manuscript.aspx?book=46&chapter=1&lid=en&side=r&verse=8&zoomSlider=1
So you have been lied to!!
B.
The phrase
a) "he says," ειπεν is present in Vs 5.
b) And continues on in vs 6 λεγει "He says".
c) Vs. 7 has it as well, λεγει "He says".
The opening of Vs. 8 is a continuation of thought from the Father. This is why most translations have Vs 5-13 in "quotations." The author of Hebrews does not put his words in quotations because he is the author and not speaking about another. He is the one who is giving his commentary. And when he quotes the Father, it is in quotations.
Get out of the Greek you have no clue what you're talking about!!!
========================
*2.* you said, Psalm 45:6 is believed to be written by King David (some think it was written by Solomon). "
End quote.
Too bad!! The Father IS applying this to the Son. And the Father is STILL CALLING HIM GOD!!! So the Father calls him God!! The Father has a God too!!
But here is where I kill your argument.
Heb 1:10 IS a quote from Psalms 102:27 and it ISN'T talking about anyone other than Yahweh God!
And the Father calls the Son here in vs. 10 ""Lord".
Heb 1:10
"You Lord, In the beginning laid the foundation of the earth, and the heavens are the works of your hands.."
This is a quote from the Septuagint and "You Lord" is not present in the Text in Psalms 102:27 LXX.
Heb 1:10 is in quotations so it is the Father speaking.
So not only does the Father call the Son "God" but he also calls him, "Lord".
===========================
*.3.* You said, Even Jesus claimed to be "god" NOT "Almighty God" in John 10:34, where he quoted Psalm 82:6, where Judges of Isarel were called "gods"
Ready to get spanked?
If you read John 10:34
"Jesus answered them, *"Has it not been written in your ((((( *Law* )))) I said you are gods?"*
News flash! the Psalms are *NOT A BOOK OF THE LAW*. To Torah which means (5 books of the law.) are.
When Jesus was quoting Psalms 82:6 he may have been quoting it, but he was talking about Deut 19:17-18.
Deut 19:17-18
"then both the men who have the dispute shall *STAND BEFORE YAHWEH*...
The Book Deuteronomy is Greek and means "The 5th book of the Law."
Deut 19:17-18 is talking about those very same Judges who stand in place as Yahweh to judge the people. So when they are being called "gods" in Psalms 82:6 they are REALLY being called "Yahwehs".
And if you read the context of Psalms 82 it is talking about those Judges who have misused their judgment upon the people of Israel. This is why it reads..
Psalms 82:6-7
"I said, "You are gods, and all of you are sons of the Most High, *NEVERTHELESS YOU WILL DIE LIKE MEN AND FALL LIKE ANY OF THE PRINCES."*
========================
Jesus was using a scripture verse which talked about false judges to counter the Jews in John 10:31.
=======================
He was calling them "false judges i.e Yahwehs". Because they didn't believe him. Nothing more.
*Now I will give you the reason why they picked up stones to kill Jesus.*
Because Jesus in John 10:28-30 was calling himself The Almighty God!!
In vs 28 Jesus quotes Deut 32:39 which is talking about Yahweh and applies it to BOTH the Father AND HIMSELF!!
John 10:28-29
"And *I give eternal life* to them, and they will never perish ; and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father who has given them to me, is greater than all, and *no one is able to snatch them out of the Father's hand."*
Jesus is quoting Deut 32:39 and is including himself into this Yahweh quote.
Deut 32:39
"See now that I, Iam he, and there is *no god besides me,* It is I who put to death and *GIVE LIFE* (Jesus applied this to himself in vs. 28). I have wounded and it is I who heal, *AND THERE IS NO ONE WHO CAN DELIVER FROM MY HAND.* "
Jesus here is taking credit for giving Life and that no one can take them out of his hand included!!
This isn't taking about David or Solomon Pal!!! This is Yahweh God!! And this verse is telling you that there is no God other then him!!!
This is why Jesus then completes quoting Deut 32:39 by saying in vs. 10
"The Father and I are ONE."
This is why the Jews picked up stones to kill him!! For claiming to by YAHWEH GOD!
If the trinity is real why then were early believers forced to either accept this new manmade doctrine of the trinity and convert to the catholic religion and if they did not they were called madman, heretics. They were cast out of their churches, persecuted and sometimes killed?

God bless you for sharing this. I've only just started watching this and this is awesome. It's put a real smile on my face. As a premillennial Christian with a heavy concern for the apocalyptic Gospel and apocalyptic Scriptures, I believe with urgency, the Church must reinforce its defence of the Trinity. I believe that this pivotal, fundamental doctrine will come under massive attack shortly.
The Trinity is a man made doctrine. There is one God our Father and One Lord Jesus. They are distinct. Christ is the mediator between man and God. I advise you to study early Christianity. Trinity is false.
If it's so fundamental why did Jesus or the apostles never articulate it anywhere?
@@kinetic7609 read the NT and read the accounts of the earliest church fathers around 100AD. The trinity is the essence of the christian faith revealed by christ’s life on earth.
@@SKgyebaek I have read the NT, and I've come to the conclusion that the Trinity is false.
The earliest Christians we're not trinitarian, it wasn't even a thought among them, only 2-300 years after Christ death did the doctrine of the Trinity become enforced and the "norm".
Do you really think that the trinity isn't pagan influence? All pagan religions held some form of trinity in their teachings, from Babylon to Egypt.
@@kinetic7609 There is no salvation in a false Jesus Christ. I believe Jesus is God. If I’m wrong, I’m in trouble. Likewise, if you are wrong, you’re in trouble. Read all of the texts which describe, declare, and make known that Jesus is God. Pray about it.
1 John 4:1-3
[1]Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
[2]Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
[3]And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.
I'm a born again Christian (John 3:3)! And the Holy Spirit show me this...(Genesis 1:26) God: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit! Man: spirit, soul and body! So the spirit is not soul and the soul is not the body, but they are part of one being (man)! Unfortunately, most "Christians" are not true Christians (Christ's followers) and therefore do not understand the Creator of all visible and invisible the Triune God Elohim (Yahweh) because they do not know that man is also a triune! So the Father is not the Son and the Son is not the Holy Spirit, but they are part of one being (God)! Ask God for wisdom (James 1:5)! God bless you all!!!
It was not the Holy Spirit that showed you that! That is Greek philosophy, that is trichotomy. It is not a Biblical understanding. Back when I was certain of the trinity, my fellow trinitarians and I viewed trichotomy as heresy.

I got this thought today........
God says we are Body, Soul, Spirit and lets be honest im 1
So our very being testifies 3 is 1 yet all are 100% me/you..... Your spirit will be judged on what the body does they are not separate in Gods eyes. Hebrews 4:12 may help with what im saying.
Though it is impossible for the deaf and blind to see. 2 speakers have a religion the other 2 have a relationship with our father.
Owe and the 2 Unitarians got destroyed : )
Daniel Gilbert whats the difference between soul and spirit?
Daniel Gilbert Well yes but I bet you wouldn't admit that your soul and your spirit are other persons would you?
That is a terrible analogy. Let me explain. In the Bible you are a soul. Your souls is the totality of your being. It can be dead or alive, aka you can be dead or alive. You body is your soul. Either alive or dead. The spirit is breath. The mysterious powerful animating principle/force that comes from God and seemingly returns to him at your death.
You are not 3 in 1. You are one being either alive or dead. Either animated by God/breath or dead.
Jesus is Gods beloved son. Does he not say that over and over and over again?
@@youngknowledgeseeker Where in the bible does it say my body is my Soul?
@@danielgilbert7366 Genesis 2. “God formed man from the dust of the earth, breathed into his nostrils the breath of life, and the man became a living soul”
The word “breath” here is the literal word for “spirit” as well. They are the same word and meaning depends on context (Job 27:3). The word for soul here, “nephesh”, is depicted as now being alive and no longer dead thanks to God animating it (See Ezekiel where God says Souls can and will die). Soul wasn’t what a man had but was what a man was. Spirit was the animating principle/force from God that makes the body/mind/heart/lungs/etc function. The breath of a man/woman.
Please please please go and see these things for yourself. They don’t teach this in Church, we’re so confused as a people. The word for soul is “Nephesh”. The word for spirit is “Ruach”. The word for body is “basar” I think but it’s not present in Genesis. But it doesn’t matter. Do a word study on these words and see for yourself what they really mean and how they’re used.
Note that of course their are subtleties in their usage and that they can be used in multiple ways, just like the words spirit, soul, body, etc can be used in multiple ways in English.
oh boy... 1:04:00 "The Holy Spirit isn't God because He was never worshipped" but when alllll the clear scriptural evidence for Jesus being worshipped is presented, it doesn't count? 🤔 May God have mercy on them and open their eyes...
Wait I'm confused
The guy with the mustache says about unitarians worshiping the flesh.
But unitarians don't worship flesh they worship God I.e the father.
Isn't it trinitarians who worship the son and view him as God in the flesh?
Did everyone in the room including our panelists totally miss verse 5, like I did until just today?
Psalm 110:5 (KJV)
5 The Lord at thy right hand shall strike through kings in the day of his wrath.
"The Lord" from above is adonay, not adoni. All debate over. I checked this in the tanach and it's also adonay.
Jesus the Lord, adonay, is at the right hand just as Christ testified.
Adonay in verse 5 is the Father.
Yes but aren’t the vowel pointings a later addition? That’s the point Mr.Buzzard was trying to make at times as well. I’m assuming your getting this from the masoretic text but 🤷🏾♂️. So it’s ambiguous to start (for us modern readers) and an educated guess is made based on context and yes thing like the Masoretic text.
Imo Jesus is not l’Adonai he is l’Adon,
Great video brother's. Its mind boggling that People reject the trinity or Godhead, its everywhere in the holy scriptures. And its under attack today like never before. People are falling away, and people who reject the trinity or Godhead are doing exactly what 2 Timothy 4:2-4 said they would do.
It’s everywhere in scripture, BUT yet there’s not a explicit scripture stating such a doctrine🤔No one in the Old Testament believes or taught it, no one in The New Testament believed or taught it. But somehow it’s there🤔
It doesn't need to be explicit to be there. Implicit claims and explicit claims are both logically true.
Every Christian is going to believe a worldview that includes numerous implicit claims from the Bible.
Unitarianism itself, for example. Unitarianism includes positive affirmation of the negative claim that Christ is not God. Where is that explicitly stated in the Bible?
@@leahjames6870 indeed, theres no explicit scripture stating such doctrine the same as the word Omnicient, Omnipresent and Omnipotent..Yet we acknowledge that all the component of these words are written in the Scripture to describe the power of our God...
Great compelling arguments Michael and James.
When the Unitarian referenced the Talmud 17:40 he lost all credibility and the debate. And then the Jew on the trinitarian side referenced it at 25:20. I just turned it off then, I’m not listening to any of these people. Let the Holy Spirit be your teacher.
To me the biggest objection to the 'trinity' is the denial of Jesus words at John 3:16 "God loved the world so much that he gave his only begotten son". If the 'trinity' of necessity must remain intact at all times then the 'Son' didnt entirely come to earth, his 'spiritual essence' was till part of the 'trinity'! Also The Father's supreme, self sacrificing love is nullified. He didnt really give up aanoything!. Yet John said "If this is how God loved us, we should love one another". It was all an illusion, a charade! Jesus didnt really pray to a 'Father' e.t.c!
I wonder how the Trinitarian universe would have looked like if 1 equaled 3😄 Besides that, what would be the point of talking about concepts like „father“ and „son“, if the father doesn't distinguish himself by nothing from the son? Reality, as I have experienced it, tells us that every father predates any son. But hey, that's just me... Maybe my father and I where both just hallucinating at my birth😀
Every hermeneutics that relies on previous hermeneutics stops being the proper understanding of God's Word and breaks down into fallacy.
Yahweh manifested himself in the form of a man on Genesis 18. Why do people have such a problem of God who is all powerful manifesting himself in the form of a man, Yeshua?
Numbers 23:19
God is not a man, that he should lie, nor a son of man that he should repent.
No one has seen God at any time John 1
Genesis 18 when studied in Hebrew calls that verse a 'mark of accusative' not saying there are two YHWHs (because Deut 6:5 is quite clear there is only one) but two ways of saying the same thing.
I couldnt get NO ONE to adequately explain the Trinity, they only left me confused,i finally gained understanding when i discoverd the Hebrew meanings of key Hebrew words such as "Elohim" & "Echad" i was set free in my spirit!!!
explain
Yes please explain.
If it’s possible to be more of a Trinitarian than I already was, I am after watching this debate! The Unitarian position is on the sand, rather than the rock, and the storm is coming. There is NO ONE BESIDES GOD who deserves our worship! Jesus is Lord and King and Savior and High Priest and Prophet only because He proceeds from the Father! I pray the Christian brethren hold fast to sound doctrine and not give in to that which is falsely called knowledge and the doctrines of demons. And I pray that the Lord continues to open the doors for many Jews into the Messianic Judaism movement! In Jesus’s Name. Amen.
Please provide me one verse from the New Testament which explicitly (or implicitly) states that, or tries to convey, that belief in Jesus Christ as being co-eternal and co-equal with God the Father is a salvific issue, on which the promise He made to Abraham rests.
I also ask you one simple question: do true believers acknowledge any other God than Jesus Christ's God?
@@edenicchristian335 As Adam Clarke (1760-1832) put it, "The doctrine
of the eternal Sonship of Christ is, in my opinion, anti-scriptural, and highly dangerous. This doctrine I
reject for the following reasons: -
1st. I have not been able to find any express declaration in the Scriptures concerning it.
2dly. If Christ be the Son of God as to his Divine nature, then he cannot be eternal; for son implies a father;
and father implies, in reference to son, precedency in time, if not in nature too. Father and son imply the
idea of generation; and generation implies a time in which it was effected, and time also antecedent to such
generation.
3dly. If Christ be the Son of God, as to his Divine nature, then the Father is of necessity prior, consequently
superior to him.
4thly. Again, if this Divine nature were begotten of the Father, then it must be in time; i.e. there was a
period in which it did not exist, and a period when it began to exist. This destroys the eternity of our blessed
Lord, and robs him at once of his Godhead.
5thly. To say that he was begotten from all eternity, is, in my opinion, absurd; and the phrase eternal Son is
a positive self-contradiction. Eternity is that which has had no beginning, nor stands in any reference to
Time.
Son supposes time, generation, and father; and time also antecedent to such generation. Therefore the
conjunction of these two terms, Son and eternity is absolutely impossible, as they imply essentially different
and opposite ideas."
AManAgainstTime God died physically because he became a man!
@@edenicchristian335 Not to mention the Council of Chalcedon declared, "One and the Same Christ, Son, Lord, Only-begotten; acknowledged in Two Natures unconfusedly, unchangeably, *indivisibly, inseparably; the difference of the Natures being in no way removed because of the Union* , but rather the properties of each Nature being preserved, and (both) concurring into ONE PERSON and One Hypostasis; *not as though He were parted or divided into Two Persons* , but One and the Self-same Son". Modern day trinitarians love to dance between "that was the human Jesus" or "that was the divine Jesus" in their usual double-talk, but according to the Council of Chalcedon (451) there is ONE person and ONE Jesus and you can't divide or separate the two natures. They taught two natures in one union. Basically, they teach that the divine nature of Jesus Christ also died on the cross which we know is impossible as God is immortal. They also teach Jesus being fully divine and fully human was tempted in the desert by the devil, but we also know God can't be tempted. They also teach Jesus in his full divinity did not know the final hour, but God knows all things in advance.

Zechariah 13:1 In that day there shall be a fountain opened to the house of David and to the inhabitants of Jerusalem for sin and for uncleanness.
Zechariah 13:1 is clearly talking about a sacrifice provided by/of God. Jeremiah 2:13 For my people have committed two evils; they have forsaken me the fountain of living waters, and hewed them out cisterns, broken cisterns, that can hold no water.
Hebrews 9:12 Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.
Romans 8, Ephesians 1 the eternal covenant, last mentioned, first made. Where the trinity made a covenant with themselves before the creation of the universe for the redemption of man. That is why the text states "by myself" it was not made with man but the fellowship of the trinity with themselves so it could not be broken the redemption of man could not be stopped. A covenant is between more than one person. And the result of the eternal covenant? The power of the blood raised Jesus from the dead, thus can do the same for you! Hebrews 13:20 Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant,
This is one of the best debates I've seen and Dr. Brown and Dr. White make a great team

It's also brought up by St. Jerome and Socrates of Constantinople that the First Epistle of John was corrupted by Heretics in their day
Here's their quotes
"Now in any event, he did not perceive that in the Catholic epistle of John it was written in the ancient copies, 'Every spirit that severs Jesus is not from God.' For the removal of this [passage] out the ancient copies are understandably by those who wished to sever the divinity from the human economy. And thus by the very language of the ancient interpreters, some have corrupted this epistle, aiming at severing the humanity from the divinity. But the humanity is united to the divinity, and are not two, but one. Knowing this, the ancients did not hesitate to call Mary 'Theotokos'."
-Socrates of Constantinople (380-450AD), Ecclesiastical History, Origin of Nestorianism, Nicene and Post Nicene Father's Series 2, Vol. 2, Chapter 32, Page 171.
"we read in the unity of the trinity is placed in the first epistle of John, where much error has occurred at the hands of unfaithful translators contrary to the truth of faith, who have kept just 'the three words WATER, BLOOD, AND SPIRIT IN THIS EDITION OMITTING MENTION OF FATHER, WORD, AND SPIRIT' in which especially the Catholic Faith is strengthened and the unity of substance of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is attested."
-St. Jerome (March 27, 347 AD - September 30, 420 AD), "Jeromes' Prologue to the Canonical Epistle"
(Jerome was the translator of the Latin Vulgate).
These attestations from both Early Church Father's shows that people were corrupting 1 John, and specifically they corrupted 1 John 5:7 because they hated The Holy Trinity!!!

@@Maricarmjolo Are you a binitarian?
Trinitheist is not monotheist. Idol worship seats better. Visit the churches and be witnesses by opening your eyes wide. Don't ask questions which shall be turned down with wide open eyes.
Over and over, both Brown and White refer to God as "complex in His unity." The word _complex_ means "composed of parts" which of course means that God is a composite being. This is rather curious because both Brown and White accuse the unitarians of "heresy" without apparently realizing that a composite Godhead is also considered heresy by the majority of Christians who affirm the doctrine of divine simplicity (DDS).
If God (G) = Father (F), Son (S), and Holy Spirit (H) --- G = FSH --- then F ≠ G, S ≠ G and H ≠ G. Thus, each person (P) is _part_ of G. And even if this hurdle can be somehow overcome, it is then obvious the G is dependent on FSH for its actuation and conservation (G ----> FSH). Thus, G is logically posterior to FSH and is thereby dependent on something less than G in order to be G. All composites are assemblages of parts and are explained and defined by their parts, even if the parts are somehow eternal. Since God is not a second-order being, He cannot be a complex unity.
In order to overcome the first objection, it is argued that each P shares the same essence (E) but is distinct in personality. But this equivocates on the definition of G. Clearly, S ≠ G in the first sense for that would identify S with the entire Godhead (which is something "complex" trinitarians reject). Thus, the E is something shared akin to species sharing whatever E they happen to belong to (3 trees, one tree essence), but that is clearly tritheism. For if each P instantiates the E, then 3P = 3G. So, the only way to salvage the Brown/White trinitarian approach is to fall back onto the "complex unity" position which locates the 3P in the one being of God. And that of course fractionalizes G (there is an aspect of G unique to each P).
If it is argued that each part of our body is fully human (thus, enabling us to call each P fully G), it cannot be forgotten that though your spleen is fully human, it is not a full human. And it also cannot be forgotten that this acknowledges the ontological dependence of the whole upon the parts which gives the parts logical primacy. And we haven't even touched upon the problem of the impossibility of finite parts coordinating to an infinite whole. No assemblage of finite parts can constitute an infinite whole.
The mistake you've made is that you're trying to use logic to think, which is considered heretical and carnally minded by trinitarian theological standards.
@@jesusisthechristthesonofgod, thought is not even possible without logic. No sense could be made of any word or sentence without relying on the principles of thought which are identity, contradiction and excluded middle. You couldn't have written your post without depending on logical principles to coherently convey your message. Logic is simply the study of coherent communication. And any proposal that is incoherent cannot be affirmed because it cannot be understood. You cannot consistently tell me that God is the ultimate being when your doctrine tells me that He isn't the ultimate being. You cannot consistently tell me that each person of the Godhead is fully God when your doctrine tells me that each person is fractionally God. That's nothing but static over the radio.
Moreover, you are mistaken in the extreme about logic's being “considered heretical,” because trinitarian theologians and philosophers have defended logic since the beginning of church history. Christian ethics should dictate to you that it is sinful to allege as true something you're ignorant about. And to prove you're ignorant of the topic, quote me just one trinitarian church father who argued that logic is heretical. Just one. You will look in vain for that quote because it doesn't exist. The most common form of the doctrine of the Trinity is called “divine simplicity.” It was promulgated by the church fathers and systematized by Thomas Aquinas. Said doctrine is the official doctrine of the Catholic Church and several Protestant denominations. Aquinas relied heavily on Aristotle's metaphysics and the logical principles he identified and articulated in his writings.
Regardless what you think about my beliefs, if you're serious about your Christianity, you need to quit asserting knowledge of things you know nothing about. Research a matter before you talk about it:
_Proverbs 18_
_13 He that answereth a matter before he heareth it, it is folly and shame unto him_ .
@@davidcoleman5860 I'm not a Trinitarian. I agree that Trinitarianism contradicts not only Scripture but Logic itself.
@@jesusisthechristthesonofgod Okay, I get where you're coming from now. Your initial post sounds a lot like the trinitarian trolls who will say anything and everything, including telling baldfaced lies, to defend the Trinity.
If I may give a Biblical perspective on the "TRINITY."
First, in order to understand the Divine Nature of God, you must stop trying to "put God in a box." His Divine existence is BEYOND human understanding and the physical limits of this world. Let's hear what God Himself says about this in I TIMOTHY 3:16
"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:
A. God was manifested in the flesh,
B. Justified in the Spirit,
C. Seen by angels,
D. Preached among the Gentiles,
E. Believed on in the world,
F. Received up in glory.
You should take a look at Exodus 3 where God appeared to Moses as a burning bush, but the bush was not consumed. And He had a conversation with Moses. Does that sound like something you can comprehend?
There are many more Bible verses that point to God's Divine Nature as "TRIUNE." But we must first "stop trying to put God in a box.."

@@Justadudeman22 God can’t be both at the same time since they defies the very meaning of God which means to exist ultimately independently. Call him a god, divine, god-like, in the form of God, in the image of God, whatever you like. But do not call him God almighty which is completely seperate from just the general meaning implied by ‘god’.
@@lets_wrapitup after seeing b1 Timothy 2:5 I agree. That verse shatters the Trinity. As well as Jesus saying we Jews know what we worship . They worshipped literally one(person) God Jehovah. God bless.
This was brutal, Dr. Brown and Dr. White absolutely destroyed this. Wow great job!!! I want to see them go up against the Oneness Pentecostal apologists that would be epic.
You seem to have bit aggressive attitude saying: "I want to see them go against..." of course, it is good to defind the truth but just make sure you are in the truth, because otherwise you are in the wrong team...🙏
Some Jews also thought they were right coming against Jesus, but Jesus corrected them:
John 8:38-47 NIV
[38] I am telling you what I have seen in the Father’s presence, and you are doing what you have heard from your father.” [39] “Abraham is our father,” they answered. “If you were Abraham’s children,” said Jesus, “then you would do what Abraham did. [40] As it is, you are looking for a way to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do such things. [41] You are doing the works of your own father.” “We are not illegitimate children,” they protested. “The only Father we have is God himself.” [42] Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on my own; God sent me. [43] Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. [44] You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. [45] Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me! [46] Can any of you prove me guilty of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don’t you believe me? [47] Whoever belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.”

TRINITY CONTRADICTS the entire bible that TEACHES that God is only One
without any concept, or implication, or insinuation of a Trinity,
God created all things ALONE and by HIMSELF ALONE!
The doctrine of Trinity cannot be found in the bible!
There is no word nor concept of Trinity in the bible!
You cannot find EVEN one verse in the bible that teaches Trinity!
What they did was mixed several verses from different topics,
then interpolate it to arrive at Trinity,
The following cannot be found in the bible:
You cannot find Trinity in the bible,
You cannot find Triune or Unified God in the bible,
You cannot find God in 3 persons in the bible,
You cannot find God the Son in the bible,
You cannot find eternal Son in the bible,
You cannot find God the Holy Spirit in the bible,
You cannot find co equal, co eternal and co existent in the bible,
The bible says that there is only One God, Only the Father,
Therefore it eliminates 'God the Son' and 'God the Holy Spirit'
Malachi 2:10 ( NIV )
Do we not all have '''ONE FATHER'''? Did not '''ONE GOD''' create us?
Why do we profane the covenant of our ancestors by being unfaithful

And this is the way to have eternal life--to know you, the '''ONLY TRUE GOD''',
and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth.

that spreadeth abroad the earth by ''''MYSELF'''';

At that point these unitarians should have just conceded the debate and gone home (to snuggle with their wives). Gold from Brown!
Abraham ForChrist this quotes shows that both of them are wrong in theology.
Abraham ForChrist too snuggle with there wives lol that's funny. Yea the concept of the Trinity is clearly present throughout scripture. The 2 Unitarians don't have eyes too see or ears too hear unfortunately.

If he commits iniquity, I will chasten him with the rod of men and with the blows of the sons of men, By my mercy shall not depart from him, as I took it from Saul, who I removed from before you. And your house and your kingdom shall be established forever before you. Your throne shall be established forever." Psalms 89:24-28 "My faithfulness and my mercy shall be with him, and in My name his horn shall be exalted .Also I will set his hand over the sea, and his right hand over the rivers, He shall cry to me, You are my father, My God and the rock of my salvation. And I will make him My firstborn, The highest of the kings of the earth." This is prophecy of the coming messiah/Jesus in the OT.
thank you sister in the midst of this comment section
Sorry, but "This other smart person agrees with me" is not a sound argument.
Joseph Good is a part of the current movement to rebuild a temple in Jerusalem, and renew animal sacrifices. Apparently, he has cut John 19:30, and Hebrews 8:6-13, and Hebrews 10:16-18, and Hebrews 12:18-24 out of his Bible.
The trinity of the bible is a deity with multiple personality disorder?
People in the comments repeating things hashed out in the debate itself. No new or different arguments advanced. What's the point?
God Bless you Dr. Brown!! You are a wonderful defender of the truth
One big problem with this debate is it was completely loosided due to the fact that the trinitarians were harmonized in their beliefs but the unitarians clearly differed in significant ways.
Imagine James White was paired with a modalist instead. That seems to be how the unitarian side was operating.

Jesus clarified that his Father is "the ONLY true God" (John 17:3). Jesus' own words make it clear that he is not GOD. So much debate for something that Jesus made clear from the begining.
2 verses later Jesus also said that he existed before the world existed and he shares the same glory as the Father. John 17:5. 🤣🤣🤣
How can Jesus share the same glory as God if he isn't God. Isaiah 42:8 God shares his glory with no one.
@@KyrieEleisonMaranatha
First of all, in the verse you mention, Jesus talks about the glory he (in some bibles) “shared” (in others) “had with” his Father. No where in the verse does it say that sharing a type of glory with his Father made him God’s equal. Jesus called his Father “the ONLY true God” (John 17:3) so obviously Jesus is not God Almighty. Also, when you mention Isaiah 42:8, in a very deliberate way, you don’t mention the rest of the scripture. It states, “I am the LORD, that is My name; And My glory I will not give to another, Nor My praise to CARVED IMAGES” (The New King James Version). It’s obvious that the giving or sharing of His glory is with carved images or idols. Please try to be more honest next time when quoting scripture.
The Unitarian gentleman directly left of the moderator is creating a straw man argument repeatedly.

So do you believe Jesus is a different divine person from the Father or the Father Himself? Do you believe in the doctrine of the eternal Son?
I'm a born again Christian and the Holy Spirit show me the Truth! Our great Creator Elohim (YHWH) is Triune God: the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit, who create a triune man: spirit, soul and body! The spirit is not the soul, but 2 parts of one man! Also and the Father is not the Son, but 2 faces of one God! With love from Bulgaria! God bless USA, Bulgaria, Israel and all countries in the world!
Jesus is a divine being separate from the Father;); there is no eternal Son as God said 'I will be to him a father and he shall be to me a son' Hebrews chapter 1 verse 5.

I was raised a Lutheran until I was 12, then a Baptist until I was 22. I started studying New Testament Greek in high school and after a time began to see things that didn't line up well with what my preacher was saying. When I asked my mom about these things, she'd get mad at me for doubting the faith. My argument is that you can't have much faith in a doctrine when the supposed basis of that doctrine doesn't line up with it. On my own, I found that when you look strictly at the Greek of the New Testament and stop relying upon certain translations and theologies, the Bible seems to have more evidence AGAINST the concept of Jesus being YHWH in the flesh rather than for. The problem is that most people calling themselves Christians would rather argue and be right than take the time to give it a serious look and possibly find out that they might be wrong.
That is so true!
While I disagree with much of Islam, to be honest, many the points raised about Jesus by Muslims are actually quite true according to the Christians' own book. During the time that I was in the middle of studying how Jesus isn't really God, I came across a Muslim pamphlet that gently mocked Christians for not understanding their Bible while delivering some good arguments against Jesus' divinity that were inline with what I had already found.
I think it's funny that Christians jump to John 1:1 and try to use poor, made-up grammatical rules (such as Colwell's rule, which doesn't always apply), when John himself says in 20:30-31 exactly the message that he was trying to say, that "Jesus is the Messiah, the son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name". He does not say that Jesus is God, but that he is the son of God. Paul argues that we can becomes sons of God as well by seeking to be like Jesus.
When someone calls Jesus "good teacher", Jesus responds by telling him that no one is good except one: God.
Paul opens many of his letters by mentioning "the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ", which clearly separates them. Revelations opens by stating "The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants..." Did God give himself something? Isn't it so obvious?
But I can go on and on. I have found (to my dismay at first) that the arguments FOR Jesus' divinity as being God in the Flesh are quite weak compared to the arguments against it.
“Blessed are you Simon bar Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you but my Father in heaven” …..a lucky and blessed man you are. Be happy and thank God.

If the Holy Spirit is a person, what is the power of the Holy Spirit? Is not the power of the Holy Spirit another person? The same logic will continue ad infinitum. Is God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit all equal as three persons? 1 Cor 15:28 speaks of the inequality of Jesus. Jesus acknowledged that the power of God worked through him and the power was of God. How can a force, or power be a person? I can understand how things are personified in the Bible, but personification does not alter the reality that the thing personified is nothing more than the thing it is, which is an "it".
Kings Warriors When God or anyone else refers to themselves as "us" or "we" they are using what is properly called the majestic plural or the plural of majesty. It does not denote a plurality of persons it denotes a plurality of power, authority, and prestige.
Faisal Siraj I'm not a trinitarian but Islam is just a perversion of Christianity. It was created by an illiterate man who knew nothing about scripture (Muhammad) and who contradicted everything Yeshua HaMashiach said.
Faisal Siraj You know what I meant. Almost everything. Like I said before, I don't believe in the trinity and there is no greater foe to the doctrine of the trinity than the Bible.
If don't believe that Jesus is the Son of God, that he is our High Priest, the Messiah, and that he died for our sins, you have lost much intimacy with the one true God. Now I know it's not your fault (it's technically Muhammad's) but everyone has to come to the truth eventually. Ask yourself this:
Did Muhammad believe Jesus is the Son of God?
Did Muhammad believe Jesus is the Messiah?
Did Muhammad believe that Jesus is our High Priest?
Did Muhammad believe that Jesus died for our sins?
Did Muhammad believe that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life and that no one comes to the Father except through him (John 14:6)?
If the answer is no to one or all of these questions (it's all by the way), then Muhammad was a false prophet and an antichrist. Yeshua HaMashiach warned us of people like Muhammad:
Matthew 24:24
For false christs and false prophets will arise and perform great signs and wonders, so as to lead astray, if possible, even the elect.
Matthew 7:15-20
15 “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.16 You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles?17 So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. 18 A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.
What are Muhammad's fruits? Well lets see he raised up a group of people who early on invaded all of the Middle East, North Africa, the Iberian Peninsula, etc. Not to mention he contradicted the one true God and led billions away from the one true God.
Not to mention the Apostle Paul warned us as well:
2 Corithians 11:3-4
3 But I am afraid that as the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts will be led astray from a sincere and pure devotion to Christ. 4 For if someone comes and proclaims another Jesus than the one we proclaimed, or if you receive a different spirit from the one you received, or if you accept a different gospel from the one you accepted, you put up with it readily enough.
I wish Muhammad would have read this one (if he could have read):
Galatians 1:6-9
6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel- 7 not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we *or an angel from heaven* should preach to you any gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. 9 As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.
Faisal Siraj So you get it now... :)
I mean that's pretty bad when you have a man claiming to a prophet of God yet he contradicts all of the true prophets before him.
If you need me to explain the Godhead or anything like that I would be happy to explain it.

Yet, even being a true God John chapter 17 verse 3 a spirit John chapter 'by law' the Father is a man as God defined a man when he made Adam having his own material body with body parts and rhuach spirit-the Holy Spirit ofGod- within his God-body John chapter 8 verses 17-18.

God cannot die, yet Jesus was killed and then resurrected (Acts 5:30). The Bible does not say that only his “human nature” died; it says that Jesus died, which would include all of Jesus (100%).
Jesus is God and Man. 100% God and 100% Man. He is not a hybrid (50% God and 50% Man). His Divine Nature is completely distinct from his Human Nature. 1 Person, 2 Natures. The person of Jesus died but only his Human Nature died and not his Divine Nature. God can not die.

Question: "How is the doctrine of the Trinity not tritheism?"
Answer: The doctrine of the Trinity is at the very center of the Christian faith. That God is triune in nature is affirmed not only in Scripture but also in the early ecumenical creeds of the church-specifically, Nicaea (A.D. 325) and Constantinople (A.D. 381). The doctrine is essentially that God is one in being while existing as three co-equal, co-eternal Persons, namely, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
One often-heard objection to the Trinity is that the doctrine logically entails tritheism (a belief in three gods). But is this criticism valid? Is Trinitarian theology at odds with the clearly taught monotheism of the Hebrew Scriptures? Or did the early Christians get it right when they upheld the monotheism of the Old Testament while at the same time affirming the full deity of three distinct Persons? To answer this question, we need to look over the biblical data. The Bible clearly affirms that there is but one God (Isaiah 43:10; 1 Corinthians 8:4). In addition, the Bible teaches the deity of the Father (John 6:27; Romans 1:7; 1 Peter 1:2), the Son (John 1:1-3; Hebrews 1:2; Titus 2:13; Colossians 1:16-17), and the Holy Spirit (Acts 5:3-4; 1 Corinthians 3:16). Moreover, the biblical writers go out of their way to affirm that all three Persons are distinct from each other (Matthew 28:19; Romans 15:30; 2 Corinthians 3:14). So, while it is true that the word trinity is not found in the Bible, the concept most certainly is.
Does the fact that there exist three divine Persons entail that there exist three separate gods? The answer is no. The same Scriptures that affirm that all three Persons of the Trinity are divine also unequivocally affirm monotheism (Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Timothy 2:5). So, what are we to do with this tension between the idea of three divine Persons and monotheism? A helpful clarification involves what we mean by the word person.
PERSON can be defined as “a center of self-consciousness.” A person has a mind, emotions, and a will, can communicate with others, and is capable of performing actions. When we speak of the concept of personhood as it relates to the Trinity, we are describing self-distinctions in God. All three Persons of the one triune God possess the complete attributes of deity. All three Persons are truly divine, yet eternally distinct from one another. The divine Persons can and do communicate with each other (John 17:1-26; Hebrews 1:8-9). Essentially, God has three centers of self-consciousness. Yet this one Being (the triune God of Scripture) possesses one indivisible essence. There is only one Being that is God, and this one Being is tri-personal, with each of the three Persons having full possession of the divine nature.
None of the Apostles said you have to believe in a trinity to be saved. nowhere in scripture does it mention a Trinity

this was and awesome debate. two of my favorite apologist working together. (cant get any better than that) its kinda annoying how the unitarians beat around the bush. they remind me of biblical pharasees. may the lord bless them.
It's the other way around! For crying out loud!
Well handled by Mike Brown and James White. The unitarian pair in comparison seem very poorly prepared, studied and have very basic arguments.
@22:30 well you have to utilize a Unitarian presupposition as you enter the New Testament because the Old Testament established a singular mindset of the person of God. Dr. White submits to us that the trinity was revealed in between the Testament therefore there's no need for a credal statement of the trinity in scripture but it allegedly permeates all of the New Testament. It seems pretty obvious that the presupposition of the trinity is read into and not out of scripture. Perhaps we should see Jesus as Paul puts it: "God was in Christ reconciling the world unto himself" or maybe how Jesus himself put it: "The Father who lives in me he does his works."
Jordan Gardner - Wrong, the trinity comes from scripture, Brown explained it best, but what the Trinitarian failure to say is those are just titles of God, for God is One.
I’m sorry. Unitarianism is infinitely confusing.
How?
Thank you for putting this out there. Unitarianism is always assumed when using scripture when talking about the nature of God.
So is Trinitarianism, it's always assumed.
@@JJFrostMusic it's assumed when discerning scripture, not when discerning the authority of interpretation of scripture
In the video description they don't even mention the names of "the two" who don't believe in the trinity doctrine. James White and Michael Brown's names are right up front as are their credentials (doctor), but you don't even get to know the name of "the two."
That pretty much tells you everything you need to know.
video discription dont mean anything. i see points on both sides. anthony buzzard is pretty solid. i've watched some of his stuff
The concept of the Trinity is clearly present throughout scripture. Stop denying God's word people
mmafan28 Show me.
mmafan28 if Trinity is not there then it's not there it's a Catholic Doctrine. Where Trinity is not in Greek scriptures it's not in Hebrew you lose. And in the end there's only one person on the throne last chapter of Revelations
The doctrine of Trinity is false. What Jesus said in John 17:3 and Paul in 1 Corinthians 8:5-6 is so clear. There is no concept that God is 3 in 1 in the Bible. God is the Father of Jesus Christ.
@ I also think of this passage from Philippians 2, which has sometimes been used as proof Paul counted Christ Jesus the Son of God as equal to The Father. But look again, to me it seems to say exactly the opposite, what do you think? "Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, 6 who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, 7 but emptied himself, by taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men. 8 And being found in human form, he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9 Therefore God has highly exalted him and bestowed on him the name that is above every name, 10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father."
Now we have to ask ourselves, does this mean that Christ, being the Son of God WAS equal to the Father? Or does this mean that Christ was in every way a man, but being in the "form of God" Christ Jesus was Holy as the Father is Holy (1 Peter 1), righteous as He is righteous, and perfect as He is perfect (Matthew 5:48). Thus, being righteous Christ Jesus did not even contemplate or consider his equality with God, for His very essence and nature of goodness was from and of the Father. Thus, being humble and righteous rather than self-righteous, Christ never even CONSIDERED comparing himself as the EQUAL to the Father. Or am I wrong? Also important to note about Philippians 2:6 is that only the KJV translates the idea opposite to the one I quotes you from the ESV. According to the KJV, the correct translation was "thought it not robbery to be equal with God" which gives it a totally opposite meaning. It seems to indicate a trinitarian bias, but I could be wrong. Would love to hear back from you!
@@zachariah7114 Hi, my english is not that good and I dont fully understand your question, so I share this and that's how I understand Philippians 2:6:
How can Jesus be God if His Father is Greater Than Him?
What did Jesus mean when He said “my Father is greater than I” considering Paul also said that Jesus is equal with God? There is no contradiction in Scripture, so how do we reconcile these verses below?
John 14:28 “You have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If you loved me,
you would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN I.”
1 Corinthians 11:3 “But I would have you know, that the head of every man is Christ; and the head of the
woman is the man; and THE HEAD OF CHRIST IS GOD.”
Philippians 2:6 “Who, being in THE FORM OF GOD, thought it not robbery TO BE EQUAL WITH GOD:
”The Greek word (theotes) for Godhead in Colossians 2:9 means the divine nature. Thus the fullness of the
divine nature of God dwells in His Son Jesus Christ. And the word “form” in Philippians 2:6 means “shape/nature,” and so Paul is saying that the way Christ is equal with His Father is in “nature” which He inherited being His Son.
The word “greater” in John 14:28 refers to position in the same way it does with a human father and son
as well as a husband and wife. 1 Corinthians 11:3 states that the head of the woman is man. But does this mean the husband is a superior being to his wife? The answer is an obvious no. She is a human being just as the man is and so they are equal in nature. The husband is greater than his wife only by position.
The same applies to a father and son. The father is greater because he was first being the father, and the same applies to our Heavenly Father and His Son. The Father is greater in position in that He was first, but not greater in nature or form as Philippians 2:6 states.
DR. BROWN + DR. WHITE are2 of the most brilliant Christian apologists of the last 100 years ...
but they teach doctrines contrary to christianity
Wolves who entered the Church.. neither Jesus nor the apostles/deciples believed anything like trinity. It gained its biggest hold in 325 ad and finially excepted in 380 ad. Humn. THATS 330 years AFTER christ . So its Trinity that is the big bad wolf!
wasn't cerberus triune?
I believed in Triune God.
The amount of heresy I heard from the Unitarian side is insane 🤦🏻♂️
Chill
No one forced you to listen
dont burn him please.
Trinitarians are the heretics by the standards of 1st-century Christians.
@@SaintFort yours is an assertion not supported by evidence.
Think of it as an egg. It has a shell and a yolk and a white. It is one yet 3. Without one it is not an egg. So Jesus is God

Everyone should pick up The Forgotten Trinity by Dr James White, he provides a good point that we cannot have anything to try to describe the Trinity with anything within the Universe, so the whole egg/H20 arguments in this Comment thread, though admirable to try to describe the Trinity, is not sufficient
Stop comparing God to an egg.
