The Holy Trinity, what is
it, and where did it originate from? 1 John 5:7,8 KJV - For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. (the red words are omitted (not in), in early transcripts). Anyway, the original text should read; "For there are three that bear record, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one." | Matt 28:19 KJV - Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:. Anyway, the original text should read; "Go ye, and make disciples of all nations in my name." | 1 Tim 3:16 KJV - And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory. | The word 'God' should be 'which' - The word "God" here is the Greek word "hos", which means "which" [the older texts used the correct word "which."]. | The Nicene Creed & Its Aftermath - In 325 AD, the year of the Nicene Creed, the Roman Emperor Constantine took
the step that forever changed Christianity; he convened the first universal
council of the church at Nicaea in Asia Minor. The Council was convened to
resolve a theological controversy over the nature of God and Christ. The results
of the conference involving 200 to perhaps more than 300 bishops were at least
four-fold: The adoption of a universal statement of Christian faith known today
as the Nicene Creed; The transformation of Christianity from a colloquium of
diverse viewpoints to a rigorously enforced, monolithic and doctrinaire church
(evidenced by the decision that Easter would be celebrated pursuant to the Roman
rather than Jewish calendar – always to be on a Sunday.); The marriage of church
and state – a situation to remain in force throughout much of the Mediterranean
and Europe for over a millennium.; The practice of anathematizing and
excommunicating leaders who would not adopt the newly established doctrine of
the emperor and church at Rome.
Now I understand that many Christians believe in this Trinitarian
doctrine as inspired scripture, but the context of this doctrine does
not fit with scripture as it was given to men of God ages ago, nor was
it included in the original scriptures. It was added to scripture to
give the Catholic church political power and prestige, a way of
increasing membership to this so called "holy Catholic and Apostolic
Church". Anyway, sadly this false doctrine since has contaminated all of
modern Christianity, and therefore has left the churches of today still
bound to the doctrines of men, and not blessed by the doctrines of God.
They are bound by rituals and practices, which make them look good from
the outside, but inside some have lost the simplicity which Jesus Christ
brought, which is simply overall compassion for others. The modern image
of the religious leaders in Jesus' day (without compassion). And the
religious spirit of it, infiltrates globally. | The many bible versions of today have been
gradually watered down to fit with the doctrines of the modern Christian
church, which are modeled after the state church. Fortunately although
most of the scripture context remains intact, unfortunately the parts
which have been corrupted or misunderstood, have been made as though
they were given to us by God. It is in these parts that we worship God
not in spirit (spiritually) as we should, but rather by the flesh
(materially). Therefore I have given the following scripture links on
the Contents page: to show who the Father is; who his Son is; and who
the Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost is; and the true relationship they have
with one another, and what the Word is. Not at all what is taught by
organized religion. |
