That you would see it as a game...hummm
Since this has been covered ad nauseum, and I truly doubt I haven't heard before what you would present scripture wise on the subject, and that has been posted here even on Talk Jesus, I think I'll pass. lol
Be honest. Would you change your mind and believe in the Trinity if I showed you where the Lord God is talking to God in the OT? Don't answer, because I already know the answer. You would not, because you would explain it away, as I would explain what you presented. Is that honest enough for you?
That is why I suggested reading the Statement of Faith (SOF) of Talk Jesus. At least 2 other members here lately have been banned, and I fear more will follow because even though in signing up, they said they'd adhere to what the SOF says, they then instead of avoiding what they don't agree with in it, they go whole hog wild defending their own beliefs that go contrary to it.
I realize that sometimes it is difficult to do so, but in truth you don't have to respond to anyone else's postings. Thereby keeping the peace, and your standing as a member of Talk Jesus.
You'll see by doing a search at the top of the page, you'll be able to find this very subject covered that it will show pages upon pages just in this year alone! Go back 10 years and you'll be inundated with the amount. Thankfully it only shows you 10 pages at a time! lol Understand that this doesn't even count the ones that were deleted!
So, no I won't play the game that I've played before, because I've come to realize that most who have played it, have done so many times before, and play it because in the end they are of the belief that they've come out on top in these exchanges. Even being banned seems to be taken as a badge of honor of how right they were. Never looking at it in a way that in truth the SOF of Talk Jesus is pretty unambiguous in what the position of Talk Jesus is as it pertains to the Trinity and that nobody forced them to join.
However, I do thank you asking.
With the Love of Christ Jesus.

I'm never surprised, by what people say, and what they do.

Hi Garee,
Do you have any scripture that you can share on this comment:
"Our Father Christ lovingly commands us to call no man on earthy Holy Father. Christ alone is our invisible God"
I have never been able to accept anyone who thinks he/she is above someone else, and treats them badly.
As for the pope, I cannot get my head around him being called 'Holy Father'?

Nobody else (human) makes me feel guilty ... it is me. I came by the Father through Jesus, and He is so REAL to me. So I had, for quite a while, a battle in my own head, about who to direct my main prayer time to. I am fine with it all now, as I have also prayed to Father God to help me have a more intimate relationship with Him ... I am so at peace with it all now : )

How should we pray? .. and who should we pray to?
Instruction to pray to the Father: Jesus taught us to ask the Father in His name (John 16:23–24).
A few examples: Praying to Jesus
Acts 7:59-60
2 Corinthians 12:8-9
Revelation 22:20
1Tim 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator also between God and men, the man Christ Jesus,
How about praying through the Holy Spirit?
Rom 8:26 In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words;
Rom 8:27 and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.
Praying to the Father
Jesus’ example: He consistently prayed to the Father (e.g., John 17, Luke 22:42).Instruction to pray to the Father: Jesus taught us to ask the Father in His name (John 16:23–24).

Hi Thanks
I added the word Holy, understanding how I believe Catholicism uses it separately to identify the Pope. Holy venerable one becomes a word of personal dark power
When they come to the loving commandment a difference is created between call no man your father upon the earth. . . by calling him our Holy Father on earth. Blasphemy
Satan the holy king of identity theft king of lying sign to wonder after as if true prophecy unlike Jesus. Not as I will Holy Father in heaven
Matthew 23:8-10But be not ye called Rabbi: for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are brethren.And call no man your (Holy) father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven.Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ.(not the Holy Pope)
