The trinity
The trinity explained:

God is a title and not a name as in Mr.. President, or Doctor.
-or-
God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. Three distinct separate but equals deities but only One God.

How does this work? Because the title God describes a governing bodies, and not an individual deity. For instance there is only one Governing body in control of the United States, subdivided into three branches. One government three incarnations of said government. A similar division is found in the God head.

That doesn't mean question just the questionable, it also means that we should question the foundational. If you have a biblically based question you'd rather not openly discuss i am happy to receive any PM's discretely, or Email Drich0150@Gmail.com

RE: The trinity
So it's three gods with the same "name" (what we refer to as God)? My psychology professor used to joke that "God" was the Christian, Muslim and Jewish god all rolled into one. Maybe he was more accurate than he knew! Lol

God= government or Collective of Governing deity

In that governing body contains 3 individual deity, with three separate names/roles.

1 God, three persons of God.

RE: The trinity
So, it's your position that xtianity isn't actually a monotheistic religion, seeing that it has three deities?

RE: The trinity
This trash again? The trinity is a retarded polytheistic sauce spooned into a putrid tureen to be poured out whenever christians need a convenient time to say "you wouldn't understand." Fact is, only those who have the credulity to believe in omnimpotent deities are subject to this tripe's influence.

What's next, Drich? The Arian mythtake?

Four, if you include the devil. Add in all those lesser demons and saints and you're up into the shitloads.
'The difference between a Miracle and a Fact is exactly the difference between a mermaid and seal. It could not be expressed better.'
-- Samuel "Mark Twain" Clemens

Spending your life waiting for the messiah to come and save the world is like waiting around for the straight piece to come in Tetris. Even if it comes, by that time you've accumulated a mountain of shit so high that you're fucked no matter what you do.

Remember, if we don't sin, poor old Jesus died for nothing.

Again their is only one God. God being a title and not a name.

The devil is not a deity in any way shape or form. For the devil is not the master of the underworld. He repersents the fallen who are sent there for eternal torment.
