One good thing about this bunch around here is that they force me to do my homework by looking up stuff I normally wouldn't bother to look up. They ("critics") would say that you and I are biased with our sources of information but I charge them for being just as biased. jar has absolutely nothing good to say about America. Neither does Theo, unless talking about the woke agenda. I didn't ask Greatpest-I-am for an explanation of "Gnosticism" ... I know a little about that bs already. I asked him what "Gnostic Christianity" is ... which I suspect isn't Christianity at all. I believe that both of them would rather live here than in any other country on earth. I know I would. (Canada is a close second, but they have issues too. ) Edited by Phat, .

I am on topic. Essentially we are talking about God. GIA chimed in with his gnostic belief that we ourselves have a christ consciousness and are god.(Hence Greatest I AM)
His teachers include Alan Watts. (from transcript) transcript writes: what would the real gospel be the real0:11 good news is not simply that Jesus of 0:15 Nazareth was the son of God 0:19 but that he was a powerful Son of God 0:26 who came to open everybody's eyes to the 0:29 fact that you are too Of course I'm about to argue that Gnosticism is heresy, but I will need to get my data together. And as jar mentions, all of this is simply mans attempts to use religion in general as an appeal to authority. You know my counter argument, I hope. The meaning of the Trinity is the essential meaning to the central figure in Christianity. Which, despite GIAs assertion backed by Alan Watts, is NOT man.

New York Times: No wonder you always use "her" and "it" to refer to the Creator of all seen and unseen. Yet without Jesus, there would be no Christianity.

True. Our very own member jar used to have a construct. You may want to ask him about it.

GIA writes: Satan isn't my ruler. I'm not the one going around claiming that I am the only god I will ever know. Now....who is "her" again?
Do you find it strange that God gave Satan extra powers of deception to use against us and made her our ruler?

The Bible clearly states that no one is righteous. I won't use that scripture as an excuse, however. Ringo has a point.

I was challenging what you meant by "her".

You have not read Revelation? We can certainly discuss it. Im assuming you have read it.

I have never met a talking serpent, but I like Donkeys. Even some Elephants, (though you have to watch them). The Elephant will eat all of the Donkeys food.

Wasting whose time? Yours? I certainly waste enough of my own.
Unlike some, I have to work. Talk to you all later. Father=Creator of all seen and unseenSon=the Creators human character. Becoming an ant to relate to we ants. Holy Spirit=The God within. We are not God. We are in Communion with God. There is a clear difference.

candle2, I dont think we should mix religion with politics. Jesus never did.

Candle2, im going to have to put you in check. There has been a valid complaint.
complaint writes: Why is this kind of smear allowed to continue over and over without so much as a comment from admin? This is definitely not "understanding through discussion," instead it's just a firehose of hate straight from Fox! I used to be an administrator here so I'm going to act like one for a minute. (I can also learn from this discipline, by the way) First, lets address the Forum Guidelines.
