This thread is a blessing to me.

I'm new here barely day old, so creating thread is not allowed yet.

So this would be my last post here since UFO INC trollers are getting many wild and uncontrollable, back there in Trinity thread

Acquited:

To make things clear the thread "sweet_athea is a lovely troll" should be removed since she is not a troll at all, Nakura knew that.

For the information of many I'm not her. I simply speaks to further the explanation on Trinity.

So wait for athea's resurrection.

I NEVER APOLOGIZED - I'm not dhugz

For the information of many I never say sorry for any people here who cannot see themselves sinners.

You should be careful not to yoke yourself with sinners.

[2 Cor]
{6:14} Do not choose to bear the yoke with unbelievers. For how can justice be a participant with iniquity? Or how can the fellowship of light be a participant with darkness?

We must love everyone, meaning have a concern for their good and especially for their salvation. But this love is spiritual and detached; it is not the mere emotion of love. So Jesus loved the scribes and Pharisees by correcting them, even sharply, even with harsh words. The Church loves sinners, sometimes by excommunicating them, so that they might repent and be saved. We can love those who have left the fold of the Church.

But what we cannot do is treat them as if they have not departed from the fold.

Forgiveness applies after repentance;forbearance applies before repentance. So when someone is unrepentant from serious sin, we should be forbearing toward that person, not cooperating or encouraging their sins, but continuing to be charitable and merciful, praying that they may repent, so as to be forgiven by God, and by all of us.

Question of Clown and John 17:1 -3

[John 17]
{17:1} Jesus said these things, and then, lifting up his eyes toward heaven, he said: “Father, the hour has arrived: glorify your Son, so that your Son may glorify you,
{17:2} just as you have given authority over all flesh to him, so that he may give eternal life to all those whom you have given to him.
{17:3} And this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

Deut 32:39
See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me: I kill, and I make alive; I wound, and I heal: neither is there any that can deliver out of my hand.

Exodus 20: 3
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.


sinong persona ang nagsasalita dyan?

Exodus 20:3
You shall not have strange gods before me.

Deut 32:39
See that I am alone, and there is no other god beside me.

{17:3} And this is eternal life: that they may know you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent.

The Christian belief is that there is only one God, one Divine Nature, but that Nature consists of Three Persons. The Three Persons are the One Nature, and each Person possesses the Nature entirely (not just part of the nature); this is termed 'consubstantial'. That is why we say, in the new translation of the Creed at Mass: consubstantial with the Father.

The attributes of the Nature are not divided among the Persons, as if the Holy Spirit were the love of God, but not the Father or Son, or as if the Son were the knowledge of God, but not the Father or the Spirit. Instead each Person possesses the whole Divine Nature.

What distinguishes the Persons from one another is their relationship to one another, particularly procession. The Father does not proceed. The Son proceeds only from the Father. The Spirit proceeds primarily from the Father and secondarily from the Son.

So the passages from Exodus and Deutronomy indicating one God are of course correct. God is one. But in the NT, God revealed that He is also Three.

The passage from John has Jesus speaking to the Father, saying "the only true God" because each Person possesses the whole Nature. Jesus as two natures, the Divine Nature and a human nature. And so the verse adds: "and Jesus Christ, whom you have sent." The Father sends the Son to become incarnate, because the Son proceeds from the Father.

This is not an indication that Jesus is not God, but rather that each Person is co-equal as God. The Father is God, possessing the whole Divine Nature. He sends the Son, who also possesses the whole Divine Nature.

Also, Scripture often uses language in a non-technical, non-theological manner. So it is not unusual for a passage to require some explanation in order for it to make sense in the manner of speaking that we use today.
