That there was nothing greater than God I also believe that God is a title and not a name. They believe that God is the name of the Father/exhuman who literally had a son with some goddess/mother type. Which redefines the word 'God' and the role christ would play as God. Because before the beginning that 'being' was once man, who was awarded God hood by some other deity/power.(March 24, 2015 at 8:14 pm)Drich Wrote: Ah, no.
Mormons believe the Father had sex with a celestial mother and Jesus was the first born 'spirit' to populate this world. In essence Jesus is of the same stock we all are. Therefore not apart of a triune God.
Oh and the father was a man just like everyone else's at one point a long time ago on another earth like planet.
So again no not like the mormons.
Mormons believe that there are three beings in one "Godhead". How is your description of God different from theirs? Yours doesn't sound Trinitarian to me.
Again just so you don't try and "Mormon"/twist what I said. I believe that the God head are titles of three different being who always were and ever will be God. There was none before nor will their ever be any other God.
That is how they are different. Again not simply beings, but eternal (past/present) deities.

I hope not... I've told a lot of black jokes in my day.

No connection? Not the same god?
Pray tell, how is that?
It's a very simple precept.
This precept starts with the defination of the word religion. It is defined as specific patern of Faith and method of worship.
Meaning a religion is man's rights and rituals use to worship God/gods
In OT Judaism worship consists of a strict adhearence to what is identified as "The Law."
In NT Christianity worship is centered around freedom from Jewish practices of worship of said law.
Two complete opposite ways of worship= 2 different religions.
