Ceeboo.........I am feeling pretty bruised and battered right now.....caught a right cross from Carol and then a uppercut from Rameumpton...

I am not sure it would be fair to the others if we teamed up......

I've found words to be very stimulating, but very dangerous. An old Benny Hill comedy routine has a young man and woman quietly talking, and she says, "what is this thing called, love?"

Hi Ram,

Just bytor

I would give him an answer to his " still hasn't been answered " but now I am VERY CAUTIOUS of any words that may come across as " explosive " or " offensive " to someone elses " Faith tradition "

Interesting offering about the " words "

I saw one once as to how different an emphasis on a word can have such different meaning. I thought it was pretty neat and probably is exactly why there are " non intended" issues using this method of communication.
Goes like this
( I ) didn't say he killed that man
I didn't say ( HE ) killed that man
I didn't say he ( KILLED ) that man
I didn't say he killed ( THAT ) man

Peace,
Carl

There's also the story of the panda, who goes into a restaurant, eats, shoots, and leaves.

Do millions accept the doctrine of the Trinity because it is monotheistic or is it because they have been taught that they should believe it? I mean, how do you know that the Trinity is true and not just a very old misunderstanding of the Godhead foisted on Christians through out the past centuries?

Hi bytor, I'll have to answer you when I get home. I need to do some fancy stuff and my computer at work makes a mess of everything.

Deuteronomy 6:
3 ¶ Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do it; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the Lord God of thy fathers hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey.
4 Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord:
5 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
6 And these words, which I command thee this day, shall be in thine heart:
7 And thou shalt teach them diligently unto thy children, and shalt talk of them when thou sittest in thine house, and when thou walkest by the way, and when thou liest down, and when thou risest up.

Believing and understanding that God is one is central to the Christian faith. The verses above testify to that. The trinity doctrine says there is one God in three persons and I believe it with all my heart. I believe that scripture has shown this to be true. The realization for me, that Jesus was and is God, was the catalyst to my conversion. I have genuine faith that the Father is God, the Son is God and the Holy Spirit is God - they are one God.
