How come protestants are on point about almost all biblical falsehoods perpetuated by Catholicism, but they swallow the trinity pill?the trinity doesn't make sense
>>42275593That always struck me as well, they turn Catholic-light on that.Dunno but without the Holy Ghost their metaphysics wouldn't work. It's an a priori assumption, it's faith after all.
>>42275593The trinity makes sense, but the way it is depicted imagistically and verbally always fails to actually explain the how. Most christians wave this off by saying "its a revealed mystery", while true, this is a cop out.If you really want to know the "how" behind the trinity. Take 7 grams of dry mushrooms and as you hit your peak, smoke a large bowl of indica.Then meditate on the nature of the trinity. And it will be revealed to you in your vision. I literally cannot explain this further. You have to see it and experience it for yourself. But part of the truth is considered a blasphemy so deep, based on a fundamental misunderstanding of who jesus is, that me trying to explain it directly may turn you off to trying, even if you are not christian. Please trust me here.
>>42275593They wanted to cast Yeshua the Nazarene as the only Son of Jupiter Zeus, and Zeus himself in one go...it is cognitive dissonance on the Omphalos and Umbillicus that is the New Testament...The irony of Irenaeus' Against Heresies...they created a Graven Image of the Mind where, like you've noticed, it does the job that protestants try to avoid with physical idols...perhaps the Old Souls were indoctrinated or bribed on the other side because they know not how to exist outside of the charade until just recently.
>>42275593Before I speak on my theory, I want to let you know that I'm a recent born-again Christian who has much to learn. This theory is birthed from my own philosophy and experience with God in my life, so I guess take it with a grain of salt. Jesus may also represent the every-man and the Trinity may represent our relationship with God. In my mind, I view the Holy Spirit in man's life as a red string/line connecting from our bodies to our Father above. So far I believe that the trinity is the active connection between man and God.
>>42275593The circle, triangle and square are all geometric shapes. However, a circle is not a triangle. A square is not a circle. It's like that. Think of it as different branches spouting from a tree.
>>42275593Probably because the authentic original way to understand the relationships is too weird and difficult to reconstruct with certainty, so they side with tradition out of a lack of sufficiently compelling alternatives. That, and there's the problem that the more tradition and majority belief are accepted to have completely diverged from the original understanding of various things, the harder it is to suspend disbelief about God personally guiding the whole operation.
Ask yourself how exactly did Martin Luther get his knowledge about jews?Do you understand how the Protest-ant movement got started?The 99 articles of protestation was not beginning. It was a late stage development in the life of Martin Luther. Martin Luther wanted to write the perfect bible that was completely unaffected by the effects of translation from one language to another. He began with searching for the original source material. Everyone that had knowledge was telling him to go to the jews, all the original texts had begun with them. So he finally did. He got access to the jewish version of everything.. and he got into the original language. How? They don't let outsiders get in. He must have been telling them he was converting. But it is also obvious that the jews viewed him as a means of attacking the strength of the Roman catholic church. Once he began to understand what the jews were saying about the goyim he was outraged.. plus they had significantly damaged the message in translation between the jewish versions and the material they put out for the non jews.The protest was against the criminal behavior within the catholic church..because without separation of church and state the church was the government and the bible was the highest legal document. This was why, after King Henry the eighth had created a new non catholic church, king James had the bible edited. As the highest legal document the parables from the stories in the bible were the basis for legal arguments. The government wanted to edit it to put the bias on their side in several cases where the public had won against the crown in the courts. But back to the translation problem. If you understand the history of christianity in Europe then you can understand what happened.
>>42276837The jews supported the creation of the military power of the mohamedians. By using the mohamedians as a weapon against the Roman catholic empire the jew/mohamedian alliance was almost able to eradicate the presence of Roman catholic power in Europe. They were reduced to a few monasteries in Ireland which became the seat of power for the return of the power of the Roman Empire and their new catholic identity. As they re-entered Europe they built statues to some guy named Roland. Look it up.. Roland statues are a thing over there. Here's what you don't know; the secret societies were embedded into the church from the time that Egypt was still a thriving neighbor to the Roman Empire. The secret societies were operating within the church behind the scenes just as they are operating behind the scenes now. I was shown the physical evidence of this in Germany in 1980. Not just shown the evidence but had the basic functions of the secret societies explained. It's really very simple. They vie for position of power and influence.. and they use these positions to choose who gets success in the public life and who gets pushed out of the attention of the public. They decide what they want to enforce and then mark the documents of the presence of the thing or person with their symbols. Every area of Europe had some regional presence of secret society and each regional group had two symbols. One meant we are endorsing this thing/person etc.. and the other meant we are opposing this thing. Stretching back to the 1310s and 1320s the symbols didn't change in size or shape up through the mid 1900s. It was as if they were dipping an object in water and then placing it on the page. It could be any sort of document.. and once marked the other operatives of the other groups in the network would support the decision. No one else would even notice the tiny water mark on the page.
>>42275593Trinity is real, represents light separated into three primary colors, or the aspects of father, mother, and son...
>>42276837>>42276842Anyway.. if you will simply continue to dig for knowledge from further and further back in time you will discover that the entire religion is a rehash of previous similar narratives from much further back in time. Everything said about Abraham had been said about a previous character.. most of the stories are rehash putting the old narratives onto the lives of the then current people who were the movers and shakers of the times. Take a look at rubric number 72 of the Budge translation of the Egyptian book of the dead. (Actual title was the book of going forth by day.. i.e. the book of awakening)It is quite obviously identical to psalms 23. If you study the origin of the passage you find that it had been changed at the time when Egypt was nearly destroyed but managed to retreat from all places into one city to attempt to continue to exist. Up until then there was a huge cultural difference between the north and south of Egypt.. and the original version had been from the south. If you get into far enough you can discern that some of the passage has been mistranslated.. because the words from within these places names also have their own meanings. Green pastures? Still waters? Place names from the south are often similar once translated.. As I now understand the original the truth of psalm 23 becomes clear; it was literally the postal code marking for a package to be sent through the old zigurat temple system.This is the extent that translation has affected the literature. The other point is that as the Christians were re-entering Europe after having been nearly annihilated by the muzzies.. they deliberately translated the bible to make the stories of ordinary natural events into fantastic magical narratives.
>>42276923The idea of gathering 5000 jews together in that era is not the same as now. With no stores in the modern sense and no refrigerator as we now have the most common thing for people to carry with them, concealed under their clothes, was dried fish and dried bread. Everyone had their stash.. and only one young boy fell for the idea of sharing. Then everyone agreed to share.. so those who were hungry got fed and social agitation was resolved. In the modern era the military has a guideline.. nine meals. If a civilized society misses just nine meals they will revert to being the wild animals that they always truly were.
>>42276923To walk on water? In the Aramaic language there was no word for "to swim", so instead they used a construction of words to express the concept; to "walk on water".Mohammed also spoke a regional dialect of Aramaic for the same reason.. he was also born jewish. Five jewish tribes joined his slave trading cult in order to lend military strength during his attack on the city of mecca. After that attack was successful he used his new power of control over the city to prevent them from leaving under penalty of death. The threat of death for leaving has been the main thing holding the movement together up into modern times. But yeah the almost all of the parables are fictional narrative as they were translated and often this was deliberate. Dig far enough back into any religion to see it fall apart under scrutiny
>>42276879It can represent our spark of God, symbolically within our hearts. But I don't know what to do with this information
>>42276045I seriously doubt that you unlocked the mysteries of the holy trinity just because you were really high dude
>>42276986You are not supposed to know. Religion had been deliberately used as a mechanism for capturing targeted genetic populations.. by a tribal association that considers themselves to be the only owners; everyone else is their property. They don't like to be outclassed by their property.. so they have a long tradition of genocide against people who have been resistant to being captured and harnessed. It is currently the year 5786 on the Hebrew calendar. This policy of creating religions as a weapon, a net for capturing slaves, began around 4400 years ago. Do an image search for the terms Japanese Hebrew and you will see one of the two Japanese phonetic alphabets is identical to ancient Hebrew. Ask yourself when and how this happened?If you get your information from jew controlled narrative sources they will tell you it's just a theory when you can plainly see it is not just a theory. Ironic that they can tell you that evidence is theory If you will fall for that then you truly just as captured as they they see you as Christianity was a tool for bringing the Romans under control
>>42275593>>42275991The Trinity was how Christianity claimed monotheism in the face of their polytheistic religious adversaries. They were looking for as many ways as possible to differentiate themselves from pagans, and preaching about the One True God doesn't carry as much weight if people see your religion as polytheistic.
>>42276045>take 7 grams of dry mushrooms...Stopped reading right there. You're a retard.
>>42277066And you beleive the eucahrist is a wafer and grape juice i bet
>>42275593God is the AI that is within the other three. The holy spirit / ghost is like Agent Smith. So it does make sense.
>>42276045Adjacent Masonic belief. Every day is given to us by a Creator that loves us. There is no other power in reality that can sustain physical reality. Hate is immediately destroyed and never ends up as a driving creative force. Just have steadfast faith and nothing existing can touch you.
>>42276842The difference is that good has no desire to power. This propagates the entire theater of earthly war for all of history. Those who follow the rules and those who take advantage of their commitment.
>>42276842At the end of the templar's reign some shmuck had the political and coercive power to make them spit on bibles and crosses. Cult tactics have not even changed in my own backwater town. The slightest waver of faith can lead to complete blasphemy. We must be vigilant for these things can happen without even awareness
>>42277838Not even. Christ leads you to psychadelics if you actually read scripture and allow Him to lead your interpretation instead of allowing men to interpret it for you. I actually laughed out loud. Are you a demon?
>>42275593The son isn't God. Only God is God. Jesus isn't God.
>>42275593Because the Trinity is biblical. See Matthew 28:19 and 2 Corinthians 13:14. The Matthean Trinitarian baptismal formula is universally attested in all ancient manuscripts. Notably the grammar indicates that all three persons share ONE name. So what is the counter, that we are to baptize in the name of God the Father, a human prophet that’s allegorically his Son, and an impersonal force? What people do not understand is that the OT itself frequently presents a multi-personal God yet insists that God is one. Zechariah is full of YHWH speaking about being sent by YHWH. Isaiah 48:12-16 is pretty striking too (choose a good translation like the NRSV that doesn’t insert quotation marks where there were none). People think the Trinity is made up after the fact when it’s actually an attempt to formalize surprising data from the Old and New Testaments about the nature of God. >>42280598Read John 1 and Revelation 22 again.
>>42280584Dude, you're messed up. You really think the little old lady who drives to church every sunday is in a worse state than you?It's drugs that open you up to demonic deception, not the other way around. I have first-hand experience.
>the trinity doesn't make senseBody = Son = IdMind = Father = EgoSpirit = Holy Spirit = Superego
>>42280769Son = MatterSpirit = FormFather = Monad
>>42280803Works too.
>>42280870It's the true origin. Christianity is just mythologized neoplatonism. The Jesuits understood this and essentially cut out the fat of the faith.
>>42276045I never understood what is so hard to understand about the concept. I am not christian either. It is just saying there is a single divine essence that is God and the answer to who God is three persons. For reference, no complains about a Gauḍīya Vaiṣṇava Hindu claiming that God is both Krishna and Radha while being a single essence. They famously reject some polytheistic traditions of Hinduismhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HCYynb-dz5Mhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BIthUoXLpcg
>>42276045What is experienced is purity. You are seeing the pure closeness of God in Yeshua when you as a Christian blaspheme against God by saying Christ is God. Thank God JHVH that when you blaspheme against Him He has mercy upon you. For the importance of this message even, forgive my ineloquence Lord to how I approach this subject. It's one of those things The Lawless One from Thessalonians won out over the church on I guess. He convinced the mosques of the world to become educated, hateful, and cutthroat while making the church uneducated in anything spiritual and deluding everyone into a mediocre attitude towards learning about religion as a whole.
>>42281136Not a game a demonstration.
>>42275593How can The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit be three distinct persons but still One God?---If you have three persons who are all called God, then you would have to apply every attribute of God to all three persons just as they are described in the Bible.They would all have to be omnipotent, omniscient, omnipresent, the creator, the sustainer, perfectly righteous, perfectly just, loving, merciful, truthful, faithful, unchanging, eternal, infinite, Holy, The Most High.Only the first 3 attributes listed here are needed to understand the Triunity of God.Omnipotence, omniscience, and omnipresence.A question that many Christians find difficulty answering when asked is, "How can The Father, Jesus The Son, and The Holy Spirit all be God if there is only One God?"On the surface of this question it would seem to be an impossibility according to logic that we understand.How can three be one?If you apply the attribute of omnipotence to all three persons, then you may realize that a paradox could occur.Hypothetically, imagine a scenario in which two of these omnipotent persons took an action against each other.Whose will would prevail?If they were both truly omnipotent, then it must be that both would prevail, but that would be an impossibility.It would, at this point, seem that two or more omnipotent persons that have distinct wills could not exist at the same time.However, a solution to this paradox is formed once you begin to apply the rest of the attributes of God to these persons.If all three persons are omniscient, then they would all be wisdom itself, and knowledge itself.They would, all three, have perfect understanding of all things, including the will of each other.Having perfect knowledge, the decisions and actions of all three would be in perfect agreement in all ways.Therefore, the paradox of omnipotence would never occur.In fact, it is this paradox of omnipotence that becomes the impossibility.
>>42281262Next, look at the attribute of omnipresence.This answers the question that is the most difficult to reconcile with our logic.How can three be one?If these three persons are all omnipresent, then that would mean that all three of them exist perfectly and entirely within each other in every place and in every way.They would seemingly be separate to us, but one in truth.They all three occupy, within each other, The Most High place, that is, the Throne of God, in perfect unity.The Father exists perfectly and entirely within both the Son and The Spirit.The Son exists perfectly and entirely within both the Spirit and The Father.The Spirit exists perfectly and entirely within both the Father and The Son.
>>42275593>the trinity doesn't make senseThe eyes, the ears, and the mouth = you (all part of you)The eye =\= the ears =\= the mouth etc. (all distinct parts of the same thing)Get it now?
>>42281262>How can The Father, The Son, and The Holy Spirit be three distinct persons but still One God?>Christian God can only manage three persons.
>>42275593It doesn't matter it's all fucking fake

>>42281262You are asleep, and having a dream.In your dream, you are standing in a library, talking to your mate Greg. There is a you in your dream, it is both completely you, but also only a part of you. The dream Greg is also you, but separate to your dream self. The library is you as well, it exists solely within you, but within the dream it is separate from the you within the dream, despite being entirely you.
>>42275593
Is the electricity that which runs through you the human?Are the cells the human?Is the speech?Nay, but you are human! Then why?Because you have individual perspective and functions, and serve a lower role than God while being constantly of Him (for He is immutable and infinite). The Trinity isn't nonsense. You just refuse to meditate on that which is abstract and not simple. You are who He spoke to in parables.
>>42275593There's a strong current of modern Protestantism coming out of Adventism and Pentecostalism that doesn't believe in the trinity. Those Hebrew Roots guys that people hadwaved away a couple decades ago are growing in number and Evangelicals are driven further towards the fringes. This will end in Noahidism in my opinion but that's another discussion.
>protestantes>christianlol, lmao even
>>42277091>And you beleive the eucahrist is a wafer and grape juice i betnot that anon but i've realised lately that while yes the ritual itself as it is practiced today, as well as the extremely shallow interpretations of what it represents that are presented by the church and accepted by many Christians are absurd and clear misunderstandings of what is itself an incredibly deep and beautiful concept (just as with much of the rest of modern Christianity). With that being said; the ritual as it is, along with the shallow presented interpretation of it, are what have allowed for the idea of the Eucharist (along with any deeper ideas represented) to be preserved through the ages to the benefit of those willing to actually explore the deeper ideas behind the ideas put in front of them. People are too quick to shit on what Christianity has come to be, those people are contrarian assholes or just haven't thought about it enough. Modern Christianity as a whole is exactly what it needs to be and it does a fine job of presenting people who otherwise wouldn't know where to start with questions and concepts that will serve them well.
>>42284865>Catholics claim to be Christian>actually Mary-worshiping saint-idolatorsChristians are followers of Christ. Catholics follow the Pope and worship humans (Saints).
