How can Christians ever recover?
Do Christcucks know that both Islam and Judaism view Christians as polytheistic because of the concept of Trinity - absent from the bible and added in the council of Nicaea?
>>
Christianity = following CHRIST's teachings and putting them into practice in your daily life

Christ did not teach Trinity, so this is not Christianity

there are many Atheists nowadays calling themselves Christians. be careful. to call yourself Christian doesn't make you a Christian

if you look at a person and see Christ in him, then you're before a Christian

>>Christ did not teach Trinity, so this is not Christianity
The Trinity concept was invented to describe the Jesus' relationship with God and the paradox of God watching from the heavens while still being on Earth (through the Holy Spirit). It's why it wasn't taught, it was discovered through analyzing just who Jesus Christ was.

Still not Trinity per se. Some clerics literally added 1 John 5:7 to King's James Bible because the doctrine of Trinity was missing. (Not present in modern editions.) "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one."

Even if we granted that, it doesn't have anything to do with my post. If the concept is so important why isn't it in the book?

The original Christians were fine with Jesus being a man, it's called Arianism, but later Christians wanted to be able to say he was also divine himself, but that comes with the obvious problem of now having two gods instead of one, which was le bad for some reason. So they came up with this ridiculous concept that God is two things but also one thing at the same time. And it's not described in the Bible because of that, and probably also because Saul just didn't think about it hard enough.

You wouldn't know the tangible reality of the Holy Spirit, because you have no belief in Christ. For all this crying out for evidence, The Bible explictly presents the HS as something that can be observed, felt, and revealed that goes outside anything you could accomplish on your own. The problem is that belief is too hard or "not worth it" for the common naysayer, so they'll never get the evidence laid on their lap.

>If the concept is so important why isn't it in the book?
It is in the book, and there's no "hiding" of Jesus proclaiming Himself as God. Doctrinal development only occurs when the book itself is studied and the spirit leads. There is no "Trinity" doctrine if the book doesn't have it.

And anon, every moral value you have came from Christianity. The concept of hospitals and charity were popularized by Christianity. The idea of sharing education with all (aka university towns) came from Christianity. The church funded sciences and your country was built firmly around Christianity. Everything you know to true and good comes from Christianity. More importantly, we already have seen what the demise of Christian practices has done to the country.

It's just 2 different ways of looking at the same thing, conflict is pointless. Christhood is synonymous with Al-Insan Al-Kamil, and Al-Khidr (The Green One), who is modeled on a much older middle eastern dying-and-rising figure, represents the same death and resurrection that Jesus preached. All Sufis aim to go through this death and resurrection, and Al-Khidr is Osiris, who is also known as the Green One. Al-Insan Al-Kamil=Akh, an immortal who has resurrected in the Egyptian Book of the Dead.

Philippians 2:6-8 shows how God humbled Himself into the form of man as Jesus, so it isn't "Jesus isn't God", but that the Father's position in Heaven is greater than Jesus's earthly presence. Has nothing to do with Jesus's divine nature.

>>529795103
Elijah went to heaven without dying, but Muslims say this to take people away from the protection of the cross. If you deny the sacrifice Jesus made for us then you deny Him as your Saviour.

Its not enough to believe Jesus was a "good man." In any case like C.S Lewis said, if Jesus isnt the living God, hes a liar, or a madman.

There is no middle ground. Lord, liar or lunatic. Theres no room for "he was a good man." If he was a man he was insane or just a liar.

He is The living God.

>The Etana myth from ancient Mesopotamia features a world tree (often a poplar) with an eagle nesting at the top and a snake living at its roots; they initially coexisted, but the eagle betrayed their oath by eating the snake's young, leading the sun god Shamash to punish the eagle, who is later rescued by King Etana, who then rides the eagle to the heavens to find the "plant of birth," symbolizing a quest for kingship and progeny. Etana ascends up the tree by riding the eagle.

Monotheism was a concept alien to Christ and the apostles. It was invented by Jews and Muslims long after Christianity had explicated trinitarian theology. First and second temple jews were essentially henotheistic, with a belief in many gods, one of which, Yahweh, was the Most High; the God of gods, so-to-speak. Yahweh Himself was presented in the Torah with a dualistic nature. He was at once infinite and inconceivable, and worldly and incarnate. When Christ claimed to be the Son of God, this wasn't a new concept to Second Temple Jews. They saw this incarnate person of God in the Garden of Eden, with Abraham at the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, and throughout the Old Testament. The only real novel contribution by Christianity to this notion of God's multiplicity was that of the Holy Spirit, which has a few hints in the Old Testament, like the Spirit of God in Genesis 1, but wasn't something that was as clear on Second Temple Jews' radar. The revelation of the Holy Spirit by Christ was timely, because He is embodied in Christ's Church, which wasn't a thing in pre-Christian Judaism.

That's an interesting interpretation. But it would mean that Elijah did already die when John the Baptist was beheaded.

Matthew 17:12-13
But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, but have done unto him whatsoever they listed. Likewise shall also the Son of man suffer of them. Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist.

The trinity isnt biblical and in John when it says "the word was God", its just restating the retarded jewish belief that the universe emanates from their retarded fairy tales.
The Trinity is heavily inspired by Aristotlean metaphysics and aside from the fact that its appropriating our philosophy for jew voodoo crap, its far more dignified than the nonsense in Islam and Judaism.

No B.C. Jew had any concept that they were monotheists. That is a completely modern category. Rabbinic Jews purposely mistranslated the masoretic text to remove any references to the existence of gods other than Yahweh. If you read the Septuagint or Dead Sea Scrolls, there are references to an entire pantheon of other deities. Baal was every bit as real as Yahweh to Old Testament Jews, they were just forbidden to worship him.

Father, son, and spirit, all beings that have claimed to be God, all work in unison, which is where the concept of trinity comes from. I believe the Father is the true progenator, and the term God generally means creator, so this is likely where the errors coincide. The spirits are also likely some sort of phantom He sends with personal messages if not even how He appears Himself, so perhaps even a distinction between Father and spirit is unnecessary. God Himself refers to spirits he imparts on people, and spirit means wind, and God is invisible for most of the Bible although there are certain that see Him formed as an angel like revelations (Ezekiel I believe was one), however he is named the invisible God once as well in scripture.

Many of the events in the Bible describe feverous visions, it’s hard to tell if Ezekiel was in something beyond a trance although I believe it’s less relevant than his messages. God can become whatever form He chooses, and the use of this angelic issue in revelations with his titles is likely an adopted personage similar to that of his son’s body.

So trinity, all one, no, in unison, together, controlled entirely by the one true God, yes. Shitskins have no real contact with God so who cares what they say?

The Sky Father (Dyaus-Pitr/Indo-European Dyeus-Phter, called today by the Vatican Deus-Pater) is the pure consciousness, he's referring to a state one may call "gnosis". This can be summed up as Al-Insan Al-Kamil.
In the Irish Book of Invasions the final invaders who became the ancestor of the Gaels are the Milesians who came via Spain from Anatolia (City of Miletus). During the festival of Hidirellez in Anatolia, Al-Khidrs resurrection and combination with Elijah (who is called that due to Islamic influence, before it was a female deity) is celebrated with bonfires, people jumping over them, etc.
In Ireland, Beltane is celebrated around the same time for the resurrection of the Green Man and his union with the May Queen. This is Osiris and Isis.

Who cares what canaanite cavemen and desert people think? Honestly. That's the least important thing a person could concern themself with.

It is just an assertion and both positions require faith on the part of the believer.
I do prefer things like this over medieval nonsense to try and "logically" prove either position.

the Trinity is in the Old Testament, it's just not obvious.

Genesis 1 "Let us make" over and over. Do you refer to a single person by a group form of address usually?

Daniel 7:
>13 I saw in the night visions, and, behold, one like the Son of man came with the clouds of heaven, and came to the Ancient of days, and they brought him near before him.
>14 And there was given him dominion, and glory, and a kingdom, that all people, nations, and languages, should serve him: his dominion is an everlasting dominion, which shall not pass away, and his kingdom that which shall not be destroyed.
So a person who looked like a male human, rode the clouds up to God (the Ancient of Days) and God gave this "Son of Man" glory and an everlasting kingdom and dominion over all things.

Jews had this understanding of "two powers in heaven" going back, to at least then. Why would God give someone who is not God glory and an everlasting Kingdom and Dominion?
In fact, Jesus citing this passage is what made the Pharisees condemn Him.

Matthew 26
>63 But Jesus held his peace, And the high priest answered and said unto him, I adjure thee by the living God, that thou tell us whether thou be the Christ, the Son of God.
>64 Jesus saith unto him, Thou hast said: nevertheless I say unto you, Hereafter shall ye see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
>65 Then the high priest rent his clothes, saying, He hath spoken blasphemy; what further need have we of witnesses? behold, now ye have heard his blasphemy.
>66 What think ye? They answered and said, He is guilty of death.
Why was He condemned? Because He had claimed to be the "Son of Man" in Daniel 7, and thus equating Himself with God.

I will continue on other angles, I will be quoting Old Testament.

>canaanite cavemen
Jesus was a Canaanite caveman, as well as 11 (?) of the Apostles (all but Paul.)
More importantly polytheism violates the 1st commandment and idolatry violates the 2nd commandment.

Now, more Apologetics:

Isaiah 9:
>6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
>7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.
The Messiah will be referred to as "the Mighty God" and "Everlasting Father"
so right there, the Messiah is in fact, God born as a Human.

Isaiah 11:
>1 And there shall come forth a rod out of the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of his roots:
To give context. David's line would end, even though God had made a covenant with David that His descendants would always rule. Jesse is David's father. So the idea is that a descendent of David will come out of a seemingly dead line, a shoot growing out from a dead stump is the illustration.
Continuing
>10 And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious.
So it is a shoot of Jesse, a descendant.. but it is also the ROOT of Jesse, that came before Jesse.
How can anyone but God been the ancestor of Jesse, David's father, but also the Son of David?
It is God, who is then born as a descendant of King David, as the Messiah.
BTW that verse also shows that Gentiles following the Jewish Messiah was also an Old Testament concept.

Micah 5
>2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
The Messiah, born in Bethlehem, would be eternal "from everlasting"

The Messiah being both human and divine is littered through scripture.

it isn't Polytheism, they are the same God.
they are a union. Just the same as your body, mind, and spirit are different things but also the same person
