Answer 1

Jesus is the Son of God, his only be-gotten Son, there is no such thing as the Trinity. And the scriptures clearly proof it.


“Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father.” (Matthew 24:36) How do these words confirm that Jesus is not Almighty God?

Jesus says that the Father knows more than the Son does. If Jesus were part of Almighty God, however, he would know the same facts as his Father. So, then, the Son and the Father cannot be equal. Yet, some will say: ‘Jesus had two natures. Here he speaks as a man.’ But even if that were so, what about the holy spirit? If it is part of the same God as the Father, why does Jesus not say that it knows what the Father knows?

1st of all Jesus said: He pointed to God as the Source of his life, saying, “I live because of the Father.” According to the context, this meant that his life resulted from or was caused by his Father, even as the gaining of life by dying men would result from their faith in Jesus’ ransom sacrifice.—Joh 6:56, 57.

Jesus’ being called the “only-begotten Son” (Joh 1:14; 3:16, 18) does not mean that the other spirit creatures produced were not God’s sons, for they are called sons as well. (Ge 6:2, 4; Job 1:6) However, by virtue of his being the sole direct creation of his Father, the firstborn Son was unique, different from all others of God’s sons, all of whom were created or begotten by Jehovah through that firstborn Son. So “the Word” was Jehovah’s “only-begotten Son” in a particular sense,

Jesus is also “Mighty God” and “Eternal Father.” This does not mean that he usurps the authority and position of Jehovah, who is “God our Father.” (2 Corinthians 1:2) “He [Jesus] . . . gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God.” (Philippians 2:6) He is called Mighty God, not Almighty God. Jesus never thought of himself as God Almighty, for he spoke of his Father as “the only true God,” that is, the only God who should be worshiped. (John 17:3;


Rev. 1:1; 3:14, RS: “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him, why did God have to give the revelation to Jesus, if he is God? .

Does the Bible teach that none of those who are said to be included in the Trinity is greater or less than another, that all are equal, that all are almighty? Mark 13:32, RS: “Of that day or that hour no ones knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.” (Of course, that would not be the case if Father, Son, and Holy Spirit were coequal, comprising one Godhead. And if, as some suggest, the Son was limited by his human nature from knowing, the question remains, Why did the Holy Spirit not know?)

John 14:28, RS: “[Jesus said:] If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; for the Father is greater than I.”

1 Cor. 11:3, RS: “I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a woman is her husband, and the head of Christ is God.” (Clearly, then, Christ is not God, and God is of superior rank to Christ. It should be noted that this was written about 55 C.E., some 22 years after Jesus returned to heaven.

A person who is really seeking to know the truth about God is not going to search the Bible hoping to find a text that he can construe as fitting what he already believes. He wants to know what God’s Word itself says. He may find some texts that he feels can be read in more than one way, but when these are compared with other Biblical statements on the same subject their meaning will become clear. It should be noted at the outset that most of the texts used as “proof” of the Trinity actually mention only two persons, not three; so even if the Trinitarian explanation of the texts were correct, these would not prove that the Bible teaches the Trinity.

Answer 2

To your specific question: there's a lot in the New Testament about this, but in short a begotten son shares the nature of the father. If the Father is God, then so is the Son. This is part of the origin of the concept of the Trinity - a concept which is not, by the way, mentioned by name in the Bible.

As to your more general question - there are a few fundamental beliefs that are necessary in order for one to be considered Christian. A belief in Christ is one of these, obviously. There really aren't very many, though. After that, it's just a question of how you practice things - do you have a liturgy or not, are there priests, if so are they celibate, things of that nature. It doesn't mean anyone is all right or all wrong, and that isn't the point really. One does what one believes to be right in the sight of God. If someone else sees things differently - always of course keeping those fundamental beliefs in mind - then fine. We all come to the same God in the end.

Answer 3

Jesus is the Son of God. Jesus is also God. God is the three in one---the Trinity---Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Yet all are distinct. Think of it like water: steam, ice, and liquid. All are still water, yet distinct.

I am a Baptist,yet I was raised Catholic. I am not here to debate the difference in religion. That will go no where and inevitably offend someone. That is not and should not be part of the cause for Christ. Instead, I will ask you to explore your Bible. Most Christians maintain that Christ died on the cross as a sacrifice for man's sin and rose again three days later to prove his divinity. That is the core. John 3:16 tells us that God so loved us that he gave his son, so we could go to Heaven. All truth is in the Word, not the subtle religious differences brought about by man.

Answer 4

Remember, Holy Trinity?????...Father, Son and the Holy Spirit...3 personas in 1! The Son is Jesus!

Answer 5

Jesus is God's only son; He is God in the flesh. Just the same as one person can be a dad, a uncle, a brother; God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

Answer 6

it doesn't really matter what religion you are, as long as you believe in Jesus, that he died for your sins, and arose in three days, then your good. :) Im not sure what Methodist believe, I think its a branch off the Catholic religion.

Answer 7

Drinking holy water??I didnt do that even when I was Catholic

Answer 8

you at a dangerous position. do not try to differentiate what is wrong or right in religions.

however, it is important to differentiate right and wrong outside religions. only when you can be very very neutral can then you go into religions studies in a deeper and wider view.
