Great teaching, Lex! And very relevant right now, especially in the Torah Observant community.
It is difficult to find a church with solid biblical services. I am blessed enough to have found one without a bunch of loud musical instruments and the Pastor is a true man of God but I am still careful as to what he says. Thank you for your videos, I value your opinions. Blessings
Actually the Lord nafe us as his image and likeness, we are similar but not the same composition as him, for sample we have a 3 density body the Lord doesn't, but we have similar as a human have a body, soul, and spirit 3 bodies, but not 3 persons, but 1 person, the creator is 1 the son is part of the Father, and Ruack Hakodesh, 3 extensions but nit 3 people, only 1 person, as is described there is only 1 Lord as Isaiah says. You. Can call the Messiah yeasuah because is part of the whole deitie, but the son is not the whole Creator, so you can't call yeshuah is the whole Lord himself or as Christians pagans says Yeshuah is not God but part of it.(God is meant as Christian pagan' saying) please subscribe to my TH-cam channel friends.
I literally started going to a Lutheran Church. It has a lot of ceremony; but it is the only church that actually reads scripture rather than trying to stir up false emotion and fake happiness.
Do all works your works on friday then invite your friends on Saturday to get along with each others and talk about the greatness of the Lord Jesus in your life. Read and study Bible together, sing together to worship the Lord Jesus. And also tell them about how you are being careful on what your pastors says because of the false teacher that was prophecied in the Bible. Celebrate the Sabbath with your friends. Friday sundown to Saturday sundown.
You don't need a church to worship. Jesus never taught in a church. He taught on a hillside or under a tree. Churches are for profit only.
Continue researching how the bible was made, who choose the books for the bible, and what the early Christians churches were and said with no bible.
This clarifies a lot. Thank you for your frankness and direct manner of teaching.

Thanks for reviewing these various forms of what people believe in your explanations help me to understand it much better. I believe you speak the truth from both study and experience.
Thanks for another insightful video! Even though I may not agree with you on a few (very few) topics about the faith I am very thankful that God has allowed you to see men today changing God's word and I thank you for sticking to God's word!
Great video! Alot of new words! Thank you for learning and knowing these things and teaching us.
That list is just the tip of the tip of the iceberg. There are many more heresies that crept into the congregation. Great teaching video! Hope to see more in the future.

@@TorahOrthopraxy does the body, soul, and spirit explanation also say those parts are co-equal like the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are said to be co-equal? Our body is flesh, is our flesh equal with our spirit and soul? The only disagreement I have with the trinity teaching is the co-equal part since Jesus said the Father is greater than he on more than one occasion. If it is only the flesh that made Jesus not equal with God while he was in human form, then how can our three parts be co-equal if one of those parts are flesh? So if we can have three parts that are not co-equal, then could we say there is a trinity but the Father is above the Son and Holy Spirit?
Hi Lex. I greatly appreciate your short messages of biblical truth. I have been watching/listening to your vlog for a long time, and I seem to remember a time when some of these truths were not yet on your radar, Thank you for honestly accepting truth as God Opens it to you. All of us walk a path of continual learning but not all
are willing to acknowledge that we are still learning. God bless you.
Thank you for all.
Would really like to hear your point of view on dispensationalism. I appreciate how thorough you are in your studies.
I have a few vids on this subject.
Also, Mr. Scott to get a more well rounded view of all views look at a video by Bruce Gore, he is a partial preterist. Meaning he believes that the letters written to 7 literal existing churches was literally for them, warning them, they actually being the audience. Search Bruce Gore, the preterist approach to Revelation.
Bible says God is one, and also He is a Spirit. Not three separate persons but triune personalities of the Godhead’s glory.
Praise Yah! For this video.. many of my brothers are adopting this heresy!
Isaiah 55:11 Word from His mouth....
John 1:14 His Word (from His mouth) made flesh.
Isaiah 55:11 His Word must fulfill what He wants - His will.
Matthew 5:17-20 Don’t ever think that I (Yeshua/THE Word) came to set aside Moses’ teachings or the Prophets. I didn’t come to set them aside but to fulfill them.
Amen and fullfil does not mean end them, it means to obey them.

Ramon Lamberty Yahweh made us in His likeness. True, not in His sameness.
Yahweh’s Word was made into human flesh, then sacrificed at Passover for the redemption of all man’s sin.
Does it say someplace in the Bible that Yahweh was made human flesh, because that feels blasphemous to me? I don’t recall ever reading that either.
It says that His Word was made flesh, and that He called the Word made flesh His Only Begotten Son. At least that is what I think I read.
Marvelous depth in teaching
Praise God for this video.
I think one of the things that leads people to Christological heresies is the desire to have it all “figured out” in a logical systematic way. It's a desire to have God in a box rather than accepting that God is beyond human understanding. It's a rejection of the mystery of God instead of a humble submission of the intellect. Paradox is not the same as a contradiction.
Excellent video, so glad you're combatting these antichrist/antitrinity teachings!
I am anti trinity, as a doctrine, as the holy spirit, is simply the love and power of God in action. Lex mentioned not, the trinity, but the duality of God, during the majority of the video. God is Elohim, i.e. family, of which, we are to become part. Father , son, the son being the first brethren. If you see the holy spirit, as a distinct, third person, I believe, you are diminishing God, as if he is weak, and needs help. God speaks for himself, through his son, and the holy spirit, giving the impression, there are three persons.
I see the trinity doctrine, by way of it's source, the Catholic church. I see the Catholic church, as the source of many heresies. I can't see how you believe Lex, is combatting anti trinity, but verifies it, through duality. Maybe he addressed it in another video. I prefer you not respond, as I am only pointing out, Lex, had no trinity verified teaching in this video, however, if you do, please do not cite 1 John 5:7-8, as that passage is different in different versions of the bible, bless your heart.
Thank you 🙏🌅

Lex, I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate your work. Keep doing what you're doing because it's so needed.
Thanks for defining adoptionism I didn't know what it meant until you explained it about 11 minutes and 30 seconds in. This is precisely true of the Christadelphians.
Oh gosh! I'll have To watch this at least 3 times to injest all the crimes against the Son of God by anti-christs in our world. Thank you for this very clear teaching.
Great video perhaps I missed it, Marcionism I didn't hear you mention this heresy.
I've been listening to your teaching for awhile now, your awesome would like to find like minded individuals near me in beckley wv
I hope there's some in Bluefield too.
SDA Church. They are everywhere. Same doctrines
This is good on the argument against the Unitarian believe that there is one God but maybe in three modes or manifestations.
Yes I agree! I have no troubles understanding the three different Godhead of Jesus, the father and Holy Spirit, but I struggle to understand how they are also one.
May Yahawah bless you
Interesting. Thinking.
Heresy= A belief or opinion that does not line up with church dogma. Question- Is the majority always right?
That is not the definition that I gave, nor is it the defense I gave. Everything I said was based on Scripture alone, not on church dogma.
UNLEARN the lies Fair enough. I was merely giving the definition of heresy. Also, just because the majority of believers hold to the doctrine of the the trinity does that make it correct? That’s all I was saying. 🤔 👍🏻
@@charnerbenton8698 we are the believers of YHWH and His only begotten Son, not a Trinity god. Thank you for your understanding.
@@arizonabusinessleague918God bless. Trinitarians always take so much for granted that it gets so tiresome. YeHoVaH bless you in the name of Yeshua
Understanding the word Elohim is critical.
This is true. A man named Arius from Alexander preached this Heresies. And this was the main motivation that angered Constantine the Great to call for the Council of Nacaea 325, and Athanasius who also attended the council, recorded the first list of the 27 books in the New Testament bible we all have today in his 367 Easter letter, he devoted his life to expel this Heresies.
No Constantine simply oversaw the council of Nicaea which was to decide how people would worship Jesus as a god. Which is actually worse cause it means no one truly knows what Yeshua taught thanks to all the censorship out here and it means Yeshua's movement became a government cult for thousands of years (statism.) Only now are people really waking up but even then its hard to know what is true. But either way freethinking all the way.
@@TruthTVNZ03 All but 2 of the attendees voted against Jesus not being divine. That's a landslide. All those bishops had knowledge of oral tradition that was passed down through apostolic succession.
@@JJ-cw3nf And only like 10 percent of them were even there. A lot of people didn't get to make it. Anyway just because the majority agrees with something does not make it right. It doesn't matter if 200 people believe in a lie and two know the truth, that doesn't make the 200 people right. The Truth is the The Truth and that's it.
@@TruthTVNZ03 10 percent? Where’d you get that from. Eusebius and Athanasius were there and they are no pushovers. I could say the same thing about your argument. Just because you think something doesn’t mean it’s true. What religion is the truth?
A literary joke on George Santayana's Wikipedia page: The aphorism "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it" is quoted as 'unattributable' in Dan Abnett's novel Prospero Burns. Winston Churchill did indeed QUOTE Santayana when he said this in 1948. Funny way to start an essay about how false ideas get spread around!
Yeshua I'm grateful.
We've just encountered monarchianism. It's very disturbing.
You know them by their fruits. The Holy Spirit be our only guide to the truth. Love the Lord thy God with all thy heart , all thy Soul and all thy Mind and love one another. Deutronomy 29:29
The secret things belong unto the LORD our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words of this law.
Good, compact description of several heresies and refuted by Holy Writ. Well done! { Heretics and cultists only read certain portions of The Holy Bible, never the whole thing from Genesis 1 to Revelation 22. }
For more in-depth information on this topic people ( with extra spending money ;-) ) should get a copy of "Charts of Christian Theology and Doctrine" by H. Wayne House, ThD.,JD, published by Zondervan. He covers many things and uses "pie charts" as a visual aid in keeping track of the heresies and lies of false teachers and groups. Very helpful.
It is amazing that Arius and Arianism were refuted at a famous Church Council by scripture, but sadly the rotten teaching is still around today, most often taught by the J.W.'s and some others.

Hi Kelly, studying the triple point of H2O helped me gain a much better understanding. God does say in Romans 1 that we can understand Him better by studying creation. There are several triple point of H2O videos on You Tube. Basically at the right temp and pressure H2O exists as a solid (ice), liquid and gas at the same time at equilibrium, yet they are all H2O. I have a vid on my channel about the topic as well.
We're at the same page.
You struggle to understand the trinity, because, it is not TAUGHT, in the bible. It's source, is the same source of many heresies. Lex, in this video, clarified the DUALITY, of God. The fact that the trinity, is an ongoing debate, means possible heresy, has entered the picture.
Someone read acts 15: 5-25 in KJV where it says they did not command gentiles to obey the law of Moses and then explain to me how gentiles are supposed to obey the law of Moses. You simply can’t.
Its talking about the laws of scribes and pharisees I believe..not the laws of Yahweh. If you are grafted in through Yeshua you then are no longer a gentile but you are now Israel. I hope that helps.
@@angieadams1902 was circumcision not a law of Moses??
@@anepicflyingbrick_4872 Yes to celebrate Passover a male is to be circumcised physically according to scripture. Those residing amongst Israel from the nations' who wanted to were to do that.
It is the One Law for All Principle @ work. In Israel those strangers ( non native ) residing amongst Israel were expected to adopt & abide in the Law of Moses. A visitor was expected to honour YHVH by not worshipping other gods of His Holy Nation.
Honestly Abba always desired a circumcised heart first like Abraham. An 8 day old child can't make a conscious decision to believe in God as a matter of faithfulness.
That 8 day old Covenant was given to Abraham & ALL males who were dwelling or came to dwell in his household & his descendants to indicate UNITY of worship as the faith of the Head of the Household to YHVH, the One True Creator.

Thanks for mentioning Christadelphian ism is being adoptionism which says that Jesus was created and did not exist before he was born. I used to be in the Christadelphian so this is particularly helpful for me.
3 scriptures say jesus was begotten or created but he was the first, so in heaven jesus was first born, then angels then man, and Jesus was then made lower than angels and became flesh, then died and returned to former life in heaven

I’m so confused on this topic
Someone on social media said that blood bought Christians cannot ever lose their salvation. I found out that blasphemy against the Holy Spirit is the one offense that is unforgivable, which means to me that salvation is lost. Even Jesus himself said that blaspheming the Holy Spirit was the only unpardonable sin, so doesn't that mean anyone can jeoprodize their salvation? There's a self proclaimed pastor who is pushing this narrative and I want the lies to be exposed for the good and spiritual well-being of our brothers and sisters in Christ.
Can u please help me. I'm really not grasping this. I really wan know more

How much heresy is allowed in the church?
Sorry if I missed it in this video but I hear many teach that God the Father , Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are all co-equal with one another. I always considered God the Father to be greater than Jesus and The Holy Spirit. Can someone help me with this?
Yes, there are several times in the NT where Jesus is spoken of implicitly or even explicitly as under God (the Father) and even having "a God" over him, even after his ascension to the right hand of God. Some examples: John 10:29, 14:28, 17:3, 20:17, Acts 2:22-24 & 2:36, 4:27 & 30, 1 Corinthians 11:3, 15:27-28, 1 Timothy 2:5-6, Hebrews 5:5-10, Revelation 3:12.
Kindly explain this Verse , in view of the Trinity “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” Revelation 1:8
This was a great teaching... There are a few heresys I'd love for you to elaborate on. Moral depravity, imputed righteousness, substitution and the big one "original sin/sinful nature" heresy. We love your videos and teachings and agree with everything you've posted so far.
Denying partial and total depravity is a denial of the original sin this isnt a "heresy" your views are extremely unorthodox literally every Christian believes in substitionary atonement you expect this dude to make a video on this? have ever read the Bible?
Beautiful defense of the faith and great hermeneutics but you forgot one. Pelagianism!😊
Matthew 16:13-17 “Who Do You Say That I Am?”
The question of; Who is Jesus? Was asked and addressed by Jesus himself. The answer that he received and he accepted as the correct answer should also be accepted by all true Christians without argument, and without adding to or subtracting from it, the same answer that Jesus accepted .
Matt.16:13-17 When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, “Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?”14 So they said, “Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” 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”.
We learn from scripture by what it says, and sometimes we can also learn from scripture by what it does not say.
When asked by our Savior, "But who do you say that I am?" Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God," Jesus was pleased by Peter's answer. He did not correct him, neither did Jesus add to Peter's answer, instead Jesus praised him, and told Peter that his answer did not come from anyone's own personal opinion or tradition, but was divinely inspired by The Heavenly Father.
So again, when Jesus asked Peter, "Who do you say that I am?" Did Peter give Jesus an incorrect answer? Or did Peter give Jesus only a partial answer to the question? Did Peter forget to mention something else? No, Peter's answer pleased Jesus because it was the perfectly true and correct answer, lacking nothing, and Jesus told Peter his answer to whom Jesus is, was inspired by The Heavenly Father.
(John 20:31) But these are written, that ye might believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God; and that believing ye might have life through his name. (John 17:3) And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.
So why then should we follow the traditions of men, and add to Peter's perfect answer?
Jesus asked Peter "Who do you say that I am?" because our Savior wanted it recorded in scripture for all mankind, both present and future, to know who he really is! If we disagree with or add to Peter's correct answer to whom Jesus is, we are arguing with Jesus and we're also disagreeing with The Heavenly Father, Jesus Christ's God and Father. (John 20:17)Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.(Eph.1:3) Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,
99 percent of Christians today would give a different answer as to who Jesus is, than Peter gave.
Doesn't that some how ..
Look like 3 different gods?
In a Bible study from the church where I usually go, the leader of the study started to tell me , after the class, that to be saved there are 5 things I have to believe in. As he was speaking loud and full of his own admiration for his wisdom, my chest started to ache so hard I had to stop him and I left almost running from him and something was screaming in my head "danger, danger run away you are in danger" while my heart was beating fast, scared. I did not know what that was, why I felt that while he was saying those things to me... Just to realize months later that the salvation is one, and that is believing in Jesus Christ our Lord, and anyone who takes or ADDS things to that falls out of the grace of God and back into the law of Moises. Now I know God was pulling my heart away from this guy, to not listen to his dangerous heresies, because some teachings can do harm to our souls, so we have to be extremely careful what and who we listen to. Thank God for His mighty hand snatching me away from that guy. I never went back to his Bible studies again, I've found better ones where the leaders don't talk out of their proud foolishness.
Strange! What were the five things he claimed you had to believe?? I would be curious to know. People come up with some of the craziest stuff.
Yeah I would be curious too. And I’d ask him to show me, being u were at a “Bible study”. U are just acting silly then and now. Engage learn teach
Kindly read colossians 1 vs15
Done
It’s hard to make sense of verses that say They are One, and verses that distinctly show Them as separate.
The verses where Elohim says He is the only Elohim, and to worship none else, and verses that say you should worship The Son.
How do you reconcile these seeming contradictions?
Because scripture shows that they are one God with three district persons who serve their own role in the trinity. Otherwise, Jesus is not God, but just a man, or other created being who could not satisfy the whole wrath of God upon the cross. When God says he is the only God, he means it, it isn't a metaphor saying that he is God and there are lesser gods that exist. He alone is God, and God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are all equally that one true God.
See Isaiah 45:5-7, Isaiah 43:10-11 and John 1:1-3
Ya this still gets me confused too. Like when God says I don't share my glory etc....oh ya, and the one that says God is the word and the word became flesh. It just seemed so much easier to know Jesus was God to avoid the contradictions. Now after this video I must say I am quit confused. Just saying my brother, you are not alone.
@@jinzjuunanagou if you have not read the Nicene Creed, it is a good place to start to understand the trinity that Christianity was built on. This is what Christians have always believed, and the counsel of Nicea was held to put to rest some of the heretical views of Jesus mentioned in this video, like saying Jesus is the same as God the Father, or that Jesus wasn't God at all, but a created god

Great understanding but I was a bit confused here... So my question is was Christ and is he the FATHER who is GOD? Please forgive me if I'm missing something here and please point me towards a scripture that Answers that. Todah..
When I watch your videos, I see a man full of information but empty of joy.
John 14:9
NO! Lex is full of the Ruach Ha Kodesh. He teaches with conviction and confidence in the Holy Spirit.
Maybe you just don't like his delivery. I have seen him in other videos in different settings and he's quite cheerful.
The issues of father,son and spirit is so confusing. So they are 3 different personalities ? Then how do they meet? If no one created one then which means the 3 had been together right from time? It's easy for me when I use a tree with 3 branches they sprung out from the same source but different personality the the root and the trunk is God; the 3 branches are father son and the holy spirit
Brother Kel 's yt might help a little?
It's confusing, because, the holy spirit, as a third person, is not TAUGHT, by the bible, but by some churches. It is the subject of ongoing debate, which means, heresy could possibly be involved. The video clearly demonstrated the duality of God, without window dressing, like the trinity.
God his word and his spirit is one God, You view God with your human mind thats why you can understand it, read the book who have written by the church father about The Holy Trinity the Holy spirit open their mind to understand about God

There have been many trinitarians who firmly believed that until they actually started studying the topic of the trinity deeply and found that it's actually trinitarians who are practicing those. One example, Kevin George, a (formerly) strict trinitarian who only read the Bible and content published by trinitarian theologians. He came to find that the "experts" admit that pretty much all of the common trinitarian "proof-texts" can or should be understood better in ways that do not prove Jesus is God or the trinity. He ended up becoming unitarian solely based off the Bible and what trinitarian scholars had written. Please consider listening to his story on the UCA podcast episodes 13 and 14. There are plenty of testimonies of people going through a similar process around the internet.
I'm watching Bible-related videos to learn and to expand my knowledge not to have debates with other people. People, you can convey your thoughts and feelings freely but please do it with love and gentleness not out of anger and pride. But i gotta tell u this, I'm also learning just from reading the comments. 😂 But I do not take to heart everything that I hear or read. Need to read the Scriptures first before believing.
I believe I could shock you

Thank you for stating that!
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.
_Per Isaiah __43:10__, Jesus must be God._
Revelation 2:8 And unto the angel of the church in Smyrna write; These things saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive;
_Per Revelation 2:8, Jesus must be God._
John 1:14 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.
_Per John __1:14__, Jesus is God's word become flesh._
_MOREOVER: Jesus is God's voice (God's Word) made flesh._
_The following is a scripture study that Jesus is the Word._
John 7:16 *Jesus answered them, and said, My doctrine is not mine, but his that sent me.*
_When Jesus spoke those words, he would have known (and still knows) that God's doctrine had long been established within the old testament scriptures._
_Just seven chapters later in_
John 14:6 *Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.*
_When Jesus spoke the words; "I am the way, the truth, and the life..." Jesus would have known (and still knows) that God's doctrine of the way and the truth had already long been established in the old testament._
*The Way* is *the law* and *the commandments:*
Psalms 119:32 I will run *the way* of *thy commandments,* when thou shalt enlarge my heart.
Psalms 119:1 [...] Blessed are the undefiled *in the way,* who walk *in the law* of the LORD.
Malachi 2:8 But ye are departed out of *the way;* ye have caused many to stumble at *the law;* ye have corrupted the covenant of Levi, saith the LORD of hosts.
*The Truth* is *the law* and *the commandments:*
Psalms 119:151 Thou art near, O LORD; and all *thy commandments are truth.*
Psalms 119:142 Thy righteousness is an everlasting righteousness, and *thy law is the truth.*
_Jesus would have also known (and still knows) God's doctrine had already long been established as to how to obtain life._
Proverbs 7:2 *Keep my commandments, and live; and my law* as the apple of thine eye.
Proverbs 4:4 He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: *keep my commandments, and live.*
_When Jesus said he is the way, the truth, and the life; he would have known (and still knows) the old testament declared the way and the truth to be God's commandments and laws._
_Also Jesus would have also known (and still knows) the way to obtain life is by keeping God's commandments._
_Jesus would have known (and still knows) that he was (and is) saying that he is God's law and God's commandments and that he is eternal life and the only way to the Father._
_Jesus is God's words made flesh._
_Note that phases “the word of God” and “the commandment of God” are used interchangeably._
_Example:_ Mark 7:13 Making *the word of God* of none effect through your tradition, which ye have delivered: and many such like things do ye.
_Example:_ Matthew 15:6 And honour not his father or his mother, he shall be free. Thus have ye made *the commandment of God* of none effect by your tradition.
_Thus Jesus is the Word[s] or the Commandment[s] of God made flesh._
_Jesus is God's word made flesh in John_
John 1:14 *And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, …*
_Sense it appears through study that God made his commandments (or the words of the covenant/the ten commandments) flesh, do (test) the following:_
_Read some of Jesus's sayings about himself and place God's “word”; that is: “the ten commandments” (which are the words of the covenant Exo __34:28__ & Deu __4:13__) into the very place where Jesus says “I” or “me.”_
_(Example: John __12:46__)_
*John **12:46** I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.*
John 12:46 I _(the ten commandments)_ am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.
_(Example: John 14:6)_
*John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.*
John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I _(the ten commandments)_ am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
(Example John 10:14)
*John **10:14** I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.*
John 10:14 I _(the ten commandments)_ am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.
_It would appear that God made (his voice) his Word flesh._
John 14:9 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?*
John 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
John 14:11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
(Further Example: John 14:9-12)
John 14:9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I _(the ten commandments)_ been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me _(the ten commandments),_ Philip? he that hath seen me _(the ten commandments)_ hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?
John 14:10 Believest thou not that I _(the ten commandments)_ am in the Father, and the Father in me _(the ten commandments/the words of the covenant)?_ the words that I _(the ten commandments)_ speak unto you I _(the ten commandments)_ speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me _(the ten commandments),_ he doeth the works.
John 14:11 Believe me that I _(the ten commandments)_ am in the Father, and the Father in me _(the ten commandments):_ or else believe me _(the ten commandments)_ for the very works' sake.
John 14:12 Verily, verily, I _(the ten commandments)_ say unto you, He that believeth on me _(the ten commandments),_ the works that I _(the ten commandments)_ do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
_Question; How can anyone do greater works than Jesus as stated in this apparent riddle in John __14:12__?_
_Using the ten commandments as a light (Psa 119:105 & Pro __6:23__) within this study this study we can begin to see and understand the riddle in John __14:12__ in a new light in the following way:_
*John **14:12** Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.*
_Howbeit this riddle seem contradictory to Jesus' statement in John __13:16__:_
*John **13:16** Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him.*
_Question followups; How can anyone do anything greater did Jesus did when Jesus never sinned?_
_Pondering an Answer: Jesus never sinned. We on the other hand, are sinners. We have to repent because we are sinners._
_Pondering Answers continued: Jesus never had to repent. Jesus never sinned therefore he could never have any sins to repent of. Jesus cannot repent of sins._
John 14:12 Verily, verily, I _(the ten commandments)_ say unto you, He that believeth on me _(the ten commandments),_ the works that I _(the ten commandments)_ do shall he do also _(he shall also keep the ten commandments);_ and greater works than these shall he do _(repenting of not keeping the ten commandments);_ because I go unto my Father.
_It would appear that “greater works” would mean further or go beyond._
_If this study is correct (using the ten commandments as our light) then what Jesus is saying is that he views repentance of sin as no small matter. In John __14:12__ he is saying repentance of sin is a great thing; even greater (going beyond) what he himself had to do._
_Jesus is God's word made flesh. Thus Jesus was (and is) the new covenant in the flesh. Notice in Matthew __26:26__-28._
Matthew 26:26 And as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and blessed it, and brake it, and gave it to the disciples, and said, Take, eat; this is my body.
Matthew 26:27 And he took the cup, and gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, Drink ye all of it;
Matthew 26:28 For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins.
(Matthew 26:28 “testament” G1242.) = covenant
G1242 διαθήκη diathēkē dee-ath-ay'-kay
From G1303; properly a disposition, that is, (specifically) a contract (especially a devisory will): - covenant, testament.
I think because there is an issue with the understanding of terms (primarily God = Elohim) we get this problem
There is One God/Elohim (Elohim is a plural word like group, family, class, or kingdom) Headed by the Father (King), managed by the Son (Lord) and taught by the holy spirit (governess), And declared by Angels/Prophets (Messengers). At least that's how I best describe it.
Actually the Lord nafe us as his image and likeness, we are similar but not the same composition as him, for sample we have a 3 density body the Lord doesn't, but we have similar as a human have a body, soul, and spirit 3 bodies, but not 3 persons, but 1 person, the creator is 1 the son is part of the Father, and Ruack Hakodesh, 3 extensions but nit 3 people, only 1 person, as is described there is only 1 Lord as Isaiah says. You. Can call the Messiah yeasuah because is part of the whole deitie, but the son is not the whole Creator, so you can't call yeshuah is the whole Lord himself or as Christians pagans says Yeshuah is not God but part of it.(God is meant as Christian pagan' saying) please subscribe to my TH-cam channel friends.
Actually God, comes from 1 if the 1 million babilonian deities and is Gad, in the true Bible that is Hebrew Bible the word god don't appear because is a pagan name....
@@TorahOrthopraxy for this comment I agree linguistically, that's why I put Elohim, but I was talking conceptionally for common understanding
@@TorahOrthopraxy slightly agree depending on some nuances. I agree we are shaped in his likeness but not of the same essence, unlike the Son who is. Same way a Ken doll(humans) compared a child (Yahshua)
I disagree that Yahshua can't be called Lord because of the realm/level at which he is Lord, and the rank between the Son and Creation. My example to this is a servant calls both the King and Prince "Lord"

What if you believe Jesus is the holy spirit in personal form?
Then your belief is incorrect.
@@brotheraugustine Why then did Jesus have to return to the Fathet before the Holy Spirit could come at Pentecost?

I almost got led away by islam. It is a dangerous heresy indeed.
Unfortunately this video is not about exposing heresies, but rather about trying to defend "trinitarianism" using the same verses out of context that's always used while intentionally refusing to present the verses that expose that the "trinity" is false. In addition, much of the information presented here is false. For example, anyone who knows anything about mormons know that mormonism isn't unitarian, but rather polytheistic. Scripture plainly states that Yahuweh is one. Anyone, including trinitarians, who state that Yahuweh is three is contradicting and denying scripture.
I think the Church of God out of Denver now believe that Jesus is God. The Salem conference still seems to teach arianism. The seventh day Baptist teach the Trinity and so that Jesus is fully gone.
SDA church also
I wish someone could get a hold of Lex Mayer for me because at the beginning of this I was on track and I was leaving that God and Jesus the Holy Spirit was a three different entities by the time I got to the end of this that's when I got confused and that everything that had substance to me fell apart in a way that I took it that God was Jesus or where we still on God is God Jesus is Jesus in the holy spirit's the Holy Spirit just looking for clarification.

The next time a Jovie comes to your door, ask them about Yeshua and let them know you only believe what is in your Bible.
The Jehovah’s Witnesses as many cults have their own bible known as the New World Translation. This has been changed and updated many times including changes made to support their false doctrines. (Proverbs 30:6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.)
They also remove many verses, phrases, and words from their bible compared to God’s preserved word found in the King James Bible. It seems grace is often removed such as in Ephesians 2:8. Footnotes are often found in their bible to explain away missing verses or other doctrinal issues. God warned not to add or subtract from his word. (Revelation 22:18-19 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book:
19 And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.)
Yeshua himself said in the book of (Revelation 1:8) I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Yeshua rose from the Dead: The Bible also teaches in (John 2:19-22) Yeshua answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days? But he spake of the temple of his body. When therefore he was risen from the dead, his disciples remembered that he had said this unto them; and they believed the scripture, and the word which Yeshua had said.
The Bible teaches in (1 Corinthians 15:14-17) And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. Yea, and we are found false witnesses of God; because we have testified of God that he raised up Christ: whom he raised not up, if so be that the dead rise not. For if the dead rise not, then is not Christ raised: And if Christ be not raised, your faith is vain; ye are yet in your sins.
And I would like to finish with one final scripture from the book of (Galatians 1:6-9) I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.
I can't understand this. I don't understand how there could be co-equality between Jesus & God, because of the old Testament commandments that you shall have no other Gods. How can it be one God if they are all, equally "God." I can understand that Jesus represents God and he's on a plane with God, above us, but he can't be equal to God. He has to be subservient to God. I guess it distresses me because so many people who I respect promote the Trinity, but it's totally illogical.
This is a really great comment. I'm at a similar place with my understanding of this. I think we have to let the scriptures fill in the gaps of our understanding. We might not get a completely logical explanation so God gives us faith to believe in what the scriptures claim - Jesus is God.
The Roman Catholic church primarily promoted the intial doctrine of the trinity. Look at the first council of Nicea. People who affirmed this were actually being called Nicean Christians
@@a-aron6724 Could; Nicean = Nicolaitans?
Revelation 2:15 So hast thou also them that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate.
@@KeepingWatch95 I think nico means ruler or victory and the word laity is referring to people or people who aren't clergy. So in some sense I've understood it to mean that the nicolations dictated to their church leaders which God hates. The order is god the head of Christ Christ the head of the church and the church the head of the man and the man the head of the woman
@@a-aron6724 So Nicean and Nicokaitans could be very similar...
You’ll have to admit that trinitarianism is hard to articulate. It’s no surprise, then, that there should be variations on it. From what I understand, the theological battle between Athanasius and Arius spurred a debate which lasted a few hundred years. Correct me if I’m rawng. I find it interesting that neither Paul or one of the other apostles dealt with it in a systematic fashion as they did, for example, with love, faith, and grace.
Jesus is God...Father, Son, Holy Spirit are titles of God who is Jesus Christ...
As I understand the Word, Jesus is God when He claims to be God saying things like, “Before Abraham was, I am” (John 8:48-59)and “I and my father are one(John 10:30-36)”. I understood Jesus as God in sinful flesh as the perfect example that we should follow.
For example Jesus didn’t need to be baptized to remit sin because he was sinless. He was being the example for the church.
As this Teacher states this is a great mystery. God ways and thoughts are higher than ours!
It's not that I disagree with his argument for but the limitations of ABBA. Time & space, all things are at Yah's will. The I AM, a being, the God of existence is everywhere & everything, every rule, law, & force. ABBA can do it all & then some. Beyond our limited imagination. We shouldn't limited ABBA to being such as ourselves. "No one", ABBA is the only one
I am not sure I understand what you are trying to say.
Oneness probably. Though I find it hard to make the same degree of distinction between the holy spirit and the other 2 person's in the God head like as can be done between God and the Son

Philippians 2:6-10
6 Though he was God,[a]
he did not think of equality with God
as something to cling to.
7 Instead, he gave up his divine privileges[b];
he took the humble position of a slave[c]
and was born as a human being.
When he appeared in human form,[d]
8 he humbled himself in obedience to God
and died a criminal’s death on a cross.
9 Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor
and gave him the name above all other names,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow,
in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
verse 6 has been translated a couple of ways. "He did not think it robbery to be equal with God" and "He did not consider equality with God something to cling to". Both indicate equality with God as a legitimate ability for Him, which is a quality that is unique to Him. This could not be said of anyone else.
Ya that Verse should not say jesus claim to be equal with God . Jesus said the father is greater than him so he cant be equal
I noticed that if Yeshua (Jesus) was a God’s Law/Word in a flesh then everything becomes easy to understand
Every time when Yeshua speaks about himself change that to “God’s Law/Word”
The meaning of the verses don’t change so Yeshua was born as a mankind from Maria and Joseph but he was completely from God cause as Yochanan had Holy Spirit from his birth
Also it’s completely understandable when Bible says that Yeshua was from the beginning of the world and that everyone can be saved bc of Yeshua and there’s no difference in the main theme between Torah and New Testament
Also this explains why Yeshua said that if they didn’t believe to Moses and prophets then they won’t believe if someone will be resurrected from death
How do you know what the early church believed 2000 years ago? Why should we learn the fallacies if they had them? Ridiculous waste of time. Teach JESUS and HIS Salvation.
