Do You Know GOD?

B-A-C said:
Trinitarians agree with every verse you've posted here.

Yes Jesus has a God, no argument. Just like you have a family. You are family, you have a family. We've already discussed this.
Jesus is God, Jesus has a God. It's all the same God.

Jesus was made? Yes He was made human at some point. But that doesn't mean He didn't exist before then.
He is the alpha and omega, the beginning and the end. Nothing before Him, nothing after Him.

Almost all of the verses you've posted, enforce the Trinity.

God is the Supreme Being, not Supreme Beings!

Gen 1:26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."

John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:2 He was in the beginning with God.

It seems the Bible would disagree.
 
Acts 13:9- Then Saul, who was also called Paul, filled with the holy spirit, looked straight at Elymas and said,
10 -"You are a child of the devil and an enemy of everything that is right! You are full of all kinds of deceit and trickery. Will you never stop perverting
the right ways of the Lord?
11- Now the hand of the Lord is against you. You are going to be blind for a time, not even able to see the light of the sun."

Paul is "FILLED" with Holy Spirit!
Was he filled with a Ghost-God?
Of COURSE not!

I will get back to you, once I complete my list!
 
Acts 15:7- After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them:
"Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the
gospel and believe.
8- God, who knows the heart, showed that He accepted them by giving
the holy spirit to them, just as he did to us.

If one just LISTENS to the scriptures they CLEARLY show the Spirit to be God's POWER- NOT a God-Ghost.
Even here it doesn't say ANYTHING to support the church dogma: God GIVES them His holy spirit.
Does He give one-third of Themselves?
No- He gives His POWER, which "fills" them as liquid in a glass.
The many references to the Spirit are completely meaningless when trying to pound the Square Peg (Trinity) into the Round Hole (God).
That's why the Catholic Church came up with the term "Sacred Mystery"!
To add credibility to nonsense in the minds of the gullible!
 
The Bible calls the Holy Spirit "whom". Not "what".

John 7:39 But this He spoke of the Spirit, whom those who believed in Him were to receive; for the Spirit was not yet given, because Jesus was not yet glorified.
John 14:17 that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.
John 14:26 "But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all that I said to you.
John 15:26 "When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, that is the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify about Me,
Eph 4:30 Do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption.

Luke 3:22 and the Holy Spirit descended upon Him in bodily form like a dove, and a voice came out of heaven, "You are My beloved Son, in You I am well-pleased."
 
Acts 17:29- Therefore since we are God's offspring, we should not think that the divine being is like gold or silver or stone an image made by human design and skill.
30- In the past God overlooked such ignorance, but now he commands all people everywhere to repent.
31- For he has set a day when he will judge the world with justice by the man he has APPOINTED. He has given proof of this to everyone by raising him from the dead.

Why do the Apostles never say that God raised HIMSELF from the dead?
They never say "God died for us"..
They ALWAYS say God resurrected Jesus.
And that Jesus was APPOINTED, not by Himself- but by GOD.
Trinitarians have to work very hard to fill the endlessly appearing holes
of their little lifeboat with anything they can find...but it always sinks fast!

You think One God sent Another God?
 
Acts 19:5- On hearing this, they were baptized into the name of the Lord Jesus.
6- When Paul placed his hands on them, the holy spirit came on them, and they spoke in tongues and prophesied.
7 -There were about twelve men in all.

Were these 12 men possessed by a Ghost-God, or filled with the "Power of the Most High"?
And what about "in the name of the Father, son, and holy ghost"?
 
Acts 20:28- Take heed to yourselves and to all the flock, in which the holy spirit has made you overseers, to care for the church of God
which he obtained with the blood of his own son. - RSV

Footnote: Greek with the blood of his Own- or with his own blood.
Most translators use the play of choices, choosing the latter in this case to sell more Bibles, or because of personal belief... since
it makes it SEEM like it was God who was killed!
 
Paul's letter to the congregations in Rome~

Romans 1:1- Paul, a servant of Christ Jesus, called to be an apostle and set apart for the good news of God-
2- the good news He promised beforehand through His prophets in the Holy Scriptures
3- regarding His son, who as to his earthly life was a descendant of David,
4- and who through the spirit of holiness was appointed the son of God in power by his resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.

[Was that "spirit of holiness ALSO a Ghost?]

5- Through him we received grace and apostleship to call all the Gentiles to the obedience that comes from faith for his name s sake.
6- And you also are among those Gentiles who are called to belong to Jesus Christ.
7- To all in Rome who are loved by God and called to be his holy people: Grace and peace to you from God our Father and from the Lord Jesus Christ.
 
Rom 1:8- First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world.

Note: Paul never called JESUS God.
 
Rom 1:9- God, whom I serve in my spirit in preaching the gospel of his son, is my witness how constantly I remember you
10- in my prayers at all times; and I pray that now at last by God's will the way may be opened for me to come to you.

Note: Paul never called JESUS God.

Rom 9:5 whose are the fathers, and from whom is the Christ according to the flesh, who is over all, God blessed forever. Amen.

Tit 2:13 looking for the blessed hope and the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior, Christ Jesus,

Php 2:6 who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be held onto,
Php 2:7 but emptied Himself, taking the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men.

We will get to that!
 
Since they both always work together, they have similar titles and roles. We know Christ is to Judge, but notice this:

Romans 2:16- This will take place on the day when God judges everyone's secrets through Jesus Christ, as my gospel declares.

Notice the word "through"?
