If God is the only one God, and yet there is Jesus, but he is god, but he sits at the right hand of god, does'nt that mean there are two gods? And if Jesus is in fact the Son of God, then why do you have to go to the #2 man in order to see the #1 man.
If you dont belive that Jesus is your personal saivoior, you die...but then again the bible says you must not worship any gods before me...lol so why can you worship Jesus?
No, he cant be the same as god, cause he sits at the right hand of god.
And if all men are born with sin, that makes it natural, then why would Jesus have to "die" to pay for our sins?
And if there is only one God, why is it that there hundreds around the world that have never even heard of Jesus.
If he is the one and only God, why do you have to guilt trip people in to beliving in him?
Wow christians are both hippocritical, and confusing!

Right, Trinitarianism is a lot of hooey. But when they elevated Jesus the man into Christ the God, they ruined monotheism, and the absurd doctrine of the Trinity was the only way to rectify it, however poorly.

Sitting @ the right hand of God is a manner of speaking. In the days of kings/queens this was common. In Heaven there is one throne and one God on the throne-Jesus, see Revelation 4:2. Jesus was God manifested in the flesh on earth. God is/was omnipresent,omnipotent, and omniscient. To worship the one true God. We must worship Jesus, and him alone. Adam was created w/o sin, he chose to sin. He brought sin onto the human race thus. People are going around the world asap to tell about Jesus. The Word says the end won't come til the ends of the world have been reachd. I can't speak for others but I never guilt trip others into believing in God. But we're obligated to preach/teach. Or else we'll be held accountable to God. I don't strive to be hypocritical nor confusing. Ask me to elaborate further anytime about any of the Bible. See upci.org, that will help!

God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are one and the same. I know that is hard to understand, but there is one only God, in three persons. That is the meaning of the Trinity.

Sin is natural in the sense that it has existed since the beginning of time, but that doesn't make it okay. Jesus was God sending himself in the form of a man, to suffer life as we do now and DIE for our salvation. Why isn't that something amazing?

There are hundreds of people around the world who have never heard of the Internet, does that make it any less real?

I'm sorry you feel that way about Christians, we're not all that bad.

A good way to understand the concept of the Trinity is through visualization. There exists God the Ultimate, the Eternal Son, and the Infinite Spirit. All three are individual personalities on Paradise, which shine one brilliant light. Imagine Paradise as an elliptical sphere with 2 sided mirrors all the way around it. These mirrors reflect the singular light of this pattern down through the cosmos and the lights found within time and space are reflected back up to Paradise in the same manner. The pathway of this light can be traversed many different ways, but the end result is the same. Men are not "born" into sin. All men/women are edowed with the prepersonal spark (light) of God, our Father. Sin is merely deviation from God's divine plan.

no.
Jesus is divinely God. There are 3 Divine Persons in 1 God. They are God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Most atheists think of God only as God the Father. All three of them [God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit] are 3 persons, yet all God.
Sins are like gifts to the Devil. Jesus was sinless, and he had to die so that he could make up for our sins.
No, we're not hypocritical [you spelled it wrong].

heres the doctrine of the trinity best way put....its hard to wrap our heads around even for christians but the bible speaks of different parts and speaks of only 3 but in the same way as the other....not in english but in Greek, translated from the Hebrew, the first language and most original it was written in.
They're different personality but the same person, yet separated yet different....confusing right? well hears the best way of explaining it.

A diamond is found while mining....they send the diamon to the cutter (now the aspect of the trinity): the diamond is cut into 3 fascits, one on the right, middle (top) and left. Each fascit is part of the same diamond, but when the light shines on the diamond each fascit shines beautifully in its own way reflecting light different from the other. It's still the same diamond, but its fascits each shine differently. Same with God: he is one God, but his "fascits" (godheads they call em) work differently in the world and thru the lives of ppl

men are born with sin and jesus died so that that sin wouldnt hinder them from being with him in the end...thats simple

and Jesus told the disciples to tell the world about him.....so if anything about the whole hundreds of ppl its the christians fault but we are trying to get everywhere we can its just hard u know cuz there are those who really dislike christians and/or what they believe in

AND GUILT? no way thats not exactly how most things work in Christianity.....its more of seeing the glory and power of Christ and having the gratitude of what he did for you when he was crucified and you take that gift


u prolly think all that is a bunch of bogus b/c ur not a christian and this place is definitely not the place to convince someone...but theres the doctrine of the trinity right there for ya, and the answer to all of your other questions

I know exactly how you feel. I was raised Christian, and everytime I asked these sort of questions I got these non helpful statements back:

"You just don't understand it fully." <-- Well no duh...no one does

"Read the Bible more." <-- That confused me even more.

"Pray about it."<-- Newsflash...I have!


I was in the same position as you, and I explored other faiths, and guess what is the ONLY one that makes perfect sense?

{thumbs down are just one word away............lol......here I go}

ISLAM!

I'm serious...they are the only religion that teaches the belief in one god and God only, and they believe in all the other prophets that were sent to us like Jesus, Moses, David, etc. They follow rules like no eating pork, and covering womens hair...they are in the Bible AND the Torah, but for some reason Christians overpass these laws. So...if you are interested in exploring other religions...please look into Islam. But hey, I was where you were....and I NEVER got a clear answer from Chrsitians. Good luck!



EDIT-

I see alot of mumbo jumbo here! lol Still don't understand it

God exists everywhere at every time. Jesus is that portion of God that exists in our universe and time frame, The holy spirit is that portion of God that exists inside us all.

That's the best I can do on short notice.

Jesus Christ is not God.
I worship the God of my fathers, not Jesus Christ.
I follow Jesus Christ's teachings and example, as best I, a mortal man, can.
I, as a Christian Preacher place guilt on no one.
