Scripture for Trinitarians
#41
RE: Scripture for Trinitarians
Been watching this from the wings and I'd just like to pass a few comments which I know will be ignored or sidelined by certain parties.

First off, this whole 3=1 thing. I'm really struggling to get my head around the concept, truly I am. The closest I can figure is that Yahweh, Jesus and Holy Ghost are all seperate entities with individual personalities etc, but they are all part of the same global organisation; I imagine it as GodCorp International. When any single one of them speaks or acts in terms of a single entity, in practise it really means that individual is representing the Company. Am I on the right lines? I know I may have some little reputation as a piss-taker, however this is really quite a genuine question and it's the only way I can make "separate, but also the same essence" work for me.

Right, billions of people who experience a qualitative improvement in their lives are just imagining those benefits.

I realise it's all too easy simply to post videos and links to articles in lieu of forming one's own thoughts on the matter - which is precisely why I'm about to do just that.

Again I'm not trying to be facetious; I'd just like to ask by what definition of 'quality' were all these lives improved?

Finally I thought I'd throw in this little titbit of my own personal testimony for those among who may be amenable to such things. All I can say is I swear this is a genuine anecdote. Several nights ago I dreamed that a blazing light beamed down at me through pearlescent clouds, accompanied by choral music, and God appeared before me with a message. He told me he doesn't exist.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'
