Trinitarian Evidence All False

TRINITY EVIDENCE FALSE

Everything that the trinitarians claims makes Jesus God. Are the same things we can do also. And it doesnt make us God. Trinitarians have tried to form a belief on circumstantial verses, not factual verses. And they base their belief on principles that are not even in the Word of God. A Believer bases all their beliefs on what is written, not on what is not written.

Transgenders in the Pulpit, What say you?

feeds@yuku.com (OldSchool7) — Thu, 29 Oct 2009 11:16:34 GMT

Hi all,

Fort Worth, Texas -- Efforts to remove a transgender pastor from ministry in the United Methodist Church died quietly at the denomination's General Conference.

The failure to enact a ban most likely means the Rev. Drew Phoenix, a pastor in Baltimore who entered the ministry as the Rev. Ann Gordon, cannot be defrocked solely because he is a transgender man before the next General Conference in 2012.

Conservative Methodists had proposed a...

Biblical Evidence Against Purgatory

feeds@yuku.com (Faith Unashamed) — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 21:10:39 GMT

The Bible tells us that Christ has already, by Himself, suffered to atone for all sins (Hebrews 1:3, Hebrews 9-10). The Catholic Church claims that a person can be forgiven of a sin, yet have to suffer to further atone for the "temporal" portion of that sin. Yet, the Bible teaches Now where there is forgiveness of these things, there is no longer any offering for sin. Hebrews 10:18

Be God's People for God's Glory -- Surrender to God

A man's pride will bring him low, but a humble spirit will obtain honor. Proverbs 29:23

In order to be on fire for God, to live the radical life He wants us to live we have to first surrender to Him. What keeps us from doing this? Pride.

I'm often a prideful person unwilling to surrender to Him. God is continually humbling me and reminding me that my pride and arrogance is getting in the way of...

The Roman Catholic Church did not Give us the Bible

feeds@yuku.com (Faith Unashamed) — Sun, 25 Oct 2009 15:33:39 GMT

By the time of Origen (185-254 A.D.), there was general agreement about most of the New Testament. However, there was disagreement as to whether the following six epistles should be part of the New Testament canon: Hebrews, James, 2 Peter, 2 John, 3 John, and Jude. This was sixty years before Constantine's "conversion" and the formation of the Roman Catholic Church in 314 A.D. By 367 A.D., all of the books of the New Testament were acknowledged as being...

Evidence Against Transubstantiation

feeds@yuku.com (Faith Unashamed) — Fri, 23 Oct 2009 17:28:54 GMT

Catholics will use Matthew 26:26-28 as a proof text (along with a few others) for the theory of transubstantiaion. They key in on the word "is" to prove that Christ meant that it was literally His body. As you will see, they must ignore other literal things in order to make this work. In other words, it is pick and choose literalism.

Mat 26:26 Now as they were eating, Jesus took bread, and after blessing it broke it and gave it to the disciples, and said,...

Be Radical for God -- A Life of Reverence

To live a radical life for God we need a radical change. Today's Christians don't have a respect for the Word of God nor a reverence for the presence of God. Today's church is lukewarm and decaying.

Early Christians Deny Perpetual Virginity of Mary

feeds@yuku.com (Faith Unashamed) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 18:15:38 GMT

Contrary to what Roman Catholics often suggest, there were many people in the early centuries of Christianity who rejected the doctrine of the perpetual virginity of Mary. Though the doctrine was popular among the later Christians, there was opposition to it even in those later centuries. The early Christian Basil commented that the view that Mary had other children after Jesus "was widely held and, though not accepted by himself, was not...

Early Christians Deny Mary's Sinlessness

feeds@yuku.com (Faith Unashamed) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 18:13:25 GMT

For hundreds of years, no church father said that Mary was sinless from conception onward. During that same time, many church fathers and Roman bishops said that she *was* a sinner. Roman Catholics try to counter such widespread evidence by arguing that at least *some* church fathers did believe in the sinlessness of Mary. One of the most commonly cited fathers in this context, if not *the* most commonly cited, is Ephraim. Catholic Answers cites him as...

Catholicism -- ECFs on John 6

feeds@yuku.com (Faith Unashamed) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 18:10:44 GMT

Catholics use John 6 to prove transubstantiation. They also point to what they call the "Early Church Fathers" or what I like to call the early Christians to prove their point. Do they actually support the Roman Catholic understanding?

When Jesus spoke the words of John 6, the eucharist hadn't yet been instituted. He said that He *is* the bread of life, and that people *are* responsible for eating His flesh and drinking His blood, even though there was no eucharist...

Argument Against Central Hierarchy (Infallible Interpreter)

feeds@yuku.com (Faith Unashamed) — Tue, 20 Oct 2009 18:05:50 GMT

Roman Catholics claim that your hierarchy must interpret scripture for the individual believer. They point to the disagreements among groups that don't claim to have an infallible interpreter as evidence that individuals need a hierarchy to interpret scripture for them. They believe that recognizing such an authority supposedly would result in more unity. They cite the disunity among the churches within evangelicalism as evidence that an infallible interpreter of scripture is...

Be Radical for God

Something has been eating away at me for some time now. God has been lying on my heart that I need a radical change. I've wanted and desired a change in me, a change to serve God the way God wants me to serve Him. He's impressed upon me one thing, that I'm not radical for Him. If I'm not radical for Him how can I expect radical things in my life concerning Him?

God wants to ignite a fire in us, He wants to do something radical in us, to revive us, He wants...

Maccabean Revolt

Jewish resistance came quickly. In the village of Modein (or Modin, as it is also spelled) a royal agent of Antiochus urged an el- derly priest named Mattathias to set an example for the villagers by offering a pagan sacrifice. Mattathias refused. When another Jew stepped forward to comply, Mattathias killed him, killed the royal agent, demolished the altar, and fled to the mountains with his...
