Thank you for helping me to finally understand the meaning of Holy Spirit. I’ve been so confused for so long and now it will help my praying greatly. I think I’ll be watching many more of your vids. You explain the Bible to me unlike any pastor I’ve listened to.
Number 9 is definitely true. In ancient Rome, most of the world were polytheists and the trinitarian position made it easy for polytheists to believe the gospel. But it made it difficult for Jews and Muslims to believe the gospel. The more evident it becomes that the unitarian position is the actual biblical position, the more that Jews and Muslims will believe the gospel.
I can 'try' to put myself in a Trinitarian position to try to make sense of "Hear O Israel Yahweh our God Yahweh is ONE" while believing in the trinity. But if you really think about it, if Jesus is God, the father is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, then we have situations like Jesus praying to his father. Why is Jesus praying to his father? Why did Jesus say that he "obeys his father? To me that's some very strong evidence for the biblical unitarian position. I seriously doubt that if Jesus was truly God in the flesh, that he would have any need to pray to HIMSELF. Obey HIMSELF. Or even speak to HIMSELF and at the same time speak to himself as if he were not himself. I am only of seventeen years of age and I can understand that the Trinity doesn't make any sense whatsoever. I wish I could say the same for the rest of my christian brothers and sisters. I never encountered the trinity in my entire life UNTILL I ironically heard about it from one of YOUR videos and I had to actually look it up. ( I wasn't going to a church at the time, so I wasn't around any other trinitarians ) Wich leads me to my point - We ONLY encounter the trinity when around other trinitarians or reading a false translations
Well done. I'm going to have to apologize that I've made some errors in my book 'Water & Blood' over Jesus being the 'I am', I, thanks to you, know better now. Phil Hinsley
GOD BLESS YOU MY BELOVED BROTHER IN CHRIST, for being willing to revisit doctrine with an open mind. May God continue to bless and leads into ALL TRUTHS
Doesn't the trinity also make Jesus to be an idol? This is what made me start questioning the Trinity even though that was the teaching I was given and had adhered to originally. I started to wonder from my study that God would not want us to worship Jesus if God is one and if Jesus is not 'God the Son' as I had been taught to believe.
The name Jesus is the only name given for salvation so its not an idol. God Gave Jesus his name so that all who prayed to Jesus will gain access to the Father, so this is not an idol but the plan of God.
Seems that people who claim that Jesus is God, forget about The Father, altogether, and it is The one true God who IS The Father. satan has always been jealous of Jesus and if he can get most Christians to claim Jesus is God, then we can't truly believe or confess that Jesus is God's own Son.
How do preachers teach about people that aren't even mentioned in scripture? There is nobody is scripture called "God the Son" or "God the Grandson". The Bible states "you shall not add to the word, and do not go beyond what is written!
@@shanederry2691 Amen, I respect Trinitarians, as long as they stick to the clear word of scripture, and don't explicitly preach any unbiblical doctrines, sadly most of them don't stick to the clear word, and they add their own Trinitarian lingo to it.
@@OurHumbleLife that’s what I began to realize 2 and I’m 18 years old. I was always wondering why is God our Father seems like he’s Forgotten in today’s Christian community like why is he not acknowledged like the apostles and Jesus Christ acknowledged Him. It’s hard to be amazed by The Fatherhood of God with this Trinity doctrine. I started to realize something is weird 😭😭loll
can someone help me please. i am a 63 year old brit and i became a Christian at the age of 53 and became quite evangelistic and spend a lot of my time handing out bibles on the streets here in london. I have from the outset been a keen reader of the king james bible that is a favorite of all trinitarians here. I have liked this little series on the consequences of believing in the trinity and am very persuaded by your arguments. My question is , is it ok still to hand out king james bibles as evangelistic tools and if not what is a good biblicalunitarian alternative. Thank you. By the way the reason I have been persuaded by you videos is your presentation in that you dont come across as being nuts and look like a nice bloke. Unfortunately i got saved in a Pentecostal environment and there are quite a few weird things going on there.
everything i've learned about Gods word throughout my entire life came straight from the King James Bible, and i had never even heard of the trinity until i got on the internet back in the early 1990's, and i still till this day can't see how anyone could ever come up with the trinity doctrine from studying the King James Bible alone, in fact i don't believe it can be arrived at, at all without being indoctrinated into it, from a none biblical source, so in my opinion there is no better Bible to use than the King James Bible, in fact none of the others even comes close, :)
Hello there. I read kjv and many others and will say you can't come to Trinitarian views just reading it for yourself. It must be taught to you. So is say handing kjv out is fine. Just pray as you do it. That God shows them all truth.
Great information. This was a problem for me when I started reading the Bible and I gave up trying to understand. My question is, who created the trinity doctrine and why? Do we know any more about how this doctrine came to be? Do you have any videos or resources about this topic? Thanks!
I appreciate your time to make all these videos. You've made the best case for the Unitarian viewpoint that I've heard I was wondering what you thought about Acts 16:7 which calls the Holy Spirit the "Spirit of Jesus." My question is, how can Luke say that? If the Holy Spirit is God in action (and only the Father is God), then how can he write that it was the Spirit of Jesus? The interchangeable phrases "Spirit of God" or "Spirit of Jesus" seem to indicate that Jesus is God. Thanks so much.
If Christ was fully human and fully man he would have had to be a demi-god and a demi-god couldn't have made the sacrifice on calverys cross because only a full man could pay the price for man!
Really great videos, and humble. Thank you for the best unitarian explanations I've heard. If Moses had to hide in the cleft of a rock to protect him in the presence of God, then could the Spirit of God/Holy Spirit be God's intent, God's will?
God's presence is uniquely found in his Son, Jesus of Nazareth. All worship to God must be mediated through him. God will accept no worship otherwise. This is how exalted our Christ is! I searched for God and I found him in his Son, Jesus Christ.
I’ve come to believe that the Holy Ghost is the resurrected (salvitic) spirit of Jesus. Otherwise, you have God being TWO spirits. He is spirit. If the HG is not the spirit of Jesus, then what happened to the spirit of Jesus???
Honestly the trinity made me hesitant to even accept christianity even though I came to realize God is real. I don't agree with Islam in some ways but I can see how they gain so many converts. Heck even Mormonism sounds more appealing to alot of people when compared to mainstream evangelical christianity. Most of the mainstream christians just worship jesus and obsess over hell and denigrate themselves in an attempt at humility. Who in the world would want to convert to that??
Jesus said if ye believe not I AM HE ye shall die in your sins , this only refers to the Father which he is called in ISAIAH 9:6 and reveals himself as over and over . The trinity is a lie , its idolatry , all of this is right but if you just said Jesus is not God manifest in the flesh , you are in error still like they are and lack understanding of Gods revelation of himself through the son which is the visible image of the invisible God and his word made flesh . "and there are diversity of operations but the same God which worketh all in all" there is only one logical and effective way for God to reveal himself , redeem us , lead us , have an intimate relationship with us and its in the way he chose to do it , create a form he is manifest as as he dwells within , made in the image of his creation . "being in the FORM of God he thought it not robbery to be EQUAL with God but rather took on the FORM of a servant" the FORM of something is not the SUBSTANCE , this is why the FULLNESS of the Godhead dwells IN Christ and "he who hath seen me has seen the Father" because Jesus IS Alpha and Omega , that is Gods name revealed to us right now , Jesus Christ , the book of acts said God himself purchased us with HIS OWN blood , indeed he did , he throws no one under the bus , he needs NO ONE he said , NONE is beside him , HIM ALONE , God redeems us , no one else , do not steal his glory or blaspheme his name with such heresy , the son is given ALL POWER for a reason , its God manifest , its his own power given to his own form unlike you or I or even Adam.
I am an atheist and I find it very hard to accept god and Bible as the word of god. The biggest challenge for Christianity according to me is evolution theory and human history (over 100,000 years). Genesis account of creation and genealogy of Adam to Jesus (origin of Adam dated to 4004 BCE) does not fall inline with scientific facts .
Research Hugh Ross an unbelieving scientist who carefully analyzed every religious book around the world and ended up becoming a christian saying that the holy Bible is the most accurate one both historically and scientifically and I'm saying that as a Muslim
Scientist distort facts to their bias. There are plenty of biblical scientist who can point to truth. Check out answers in Genesis and is genesis history.

It takes a big man and a lot of courage to admit that you're wrong especially after you wrote a book on the subject. Hats off to you sir

Thank you so much for truth! ♡♡♡
Again explained so well and its how I feel, I've subscribed !!
I love you man thanks for your good work for YHWH and Jesus his son our savior!
Trinity is just so confusing. I don't think it is biblical, it is man made religion.
I pray that Yahweh through his holy spirit brings rise to biblical unitarianism and make it flourish till the day of resurrection
That is a very good explanation. Thanks for sharing!
Very good explanation.

ric,
God is ONE; He is The Father.
God sent His SON.
Blessings to you
Yes, if you found a bible and never had a teacher, you could never conclude that Jesus is God

Awesome!

John says if one is a xtn it does not matter about doctrine solely. I think this is best approach. Relationship over RELIGION.
What is the meaning of "the spirit and the bride say come" in the book of revelation?
can you please redo the video ?
the sound has been cut off.
God's presence is uniquely found in his Son, Jesus of Nazareth. All worship to God must be mediated through him. God will accept no worship otherwise. This is how exalted our Christ is! I searched for God and I found him in his Son, Jesus Christ.
