^ So, let me get this straight, you believe that Jesus is God and that the trinity is Father, Son, and holy spirit where there are 3 but the 3 are one?

Ah, no.

I believe God is a title and not a name. As in God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. 3 deities one God.

This principle works in our world as well. In the United states there is only one governing authority over everything, but within this goverment there are three branches. The executive (The office president) The Legislative (Congress/The house) The judicial (The Courts)

Then by all means, show me. Show me where 'your facts' invalidate the teaching of Paul in Romans 7. Otherwise understand inorder to hold to your doctrine you have to ignore the Teachings of Paul, and Christ to hide behind these elusive 'facts.'

That said, in all my time here I do not spend it correcting 'brothers in the faith' for two reason. One we are told not to do it publically. We are told to bring a matter of contention to them privatly. Two, I understand that not all 'eat meat.' Meaning not everyone has to be on the same page or understanding of God. We are only called to be responsiable for what we can comperhend. If your comperhension ties you to the Law, then know even if Paul and Christ give you the freedom to live apart from the law, that still means you have the freedom to live under the law as well. "For what you bind on earth will be bound in Heaven and what you loose on earth will also be loosed in Heaven."
Meaning in your freedom if you tie yourself to the law of moses then in Heaven it is by the law of moses you will be judged. If in your freedom you wish to tie yourself down then you have freedom to do so.

Not true. Christ make a very Clear distinction between Heart, Mind,(brain) Spirit (Soul in some translations) and Body when He was asked what was our Greatest Commandment. Which was: "You are to love your Lord God with all of your Heart"

as in:
centre of all physical and spiritual life
the vigour and sense of physical life
the centre and seat of spiritual life
the soul or mind, as it is the fountain and seat of the thoughts, passions, desires, appetites, affections, purposes, endeavours
of the understanding, the faculty and seat of the intelligence
of the will and character
of the soul so far as it is affected and stirred in a bad way or good, or of the soul as the seat of the sensibilities, affections, emotions, desires, appetites, passions

Not blood pump, because how can you love with a blood pump? "Mind, Spirit and Strength."

Because Christ shows a clear understand between the seperation of Heart and mind in this passage it stands to reason that when He says 'heart' He is not speaking blood pump in yours.

Close but no banana. I don't recognise where the quote comes from so I am looking forward to a chapter and verse on it.

In the meantime Jesus is showing that the heart and the mind are separate in the same way that we might show the mind and the brain are separate. In other words there is nothing in the above that shows that Jesus understands that the mind is located in the Brain rather than in say, the kidneys, heart, liver or anywhere else.

You are assuming Jesus sees the heart as what we know it to be today - a blood pump - there is simply no evidence for this.

All indications, from the text in Mark, are that Jesus locates the mind in the heart.

keep looking, and when you find what you are looking for i will take that passage and give you the greek words and the definations of those words that support my arguement. (already looked all of this stuff up)
