T***h is a person Tommy. And that person is Jesus Christ who I am in.

John 14:6 (NASB)
Jesus said to him, “I am the way, and the t***h, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me. (emphasis mine)

Because I know Him and do what He commands, the t***h that I am in tells me to refrain from what my flesh wants to say to you so instead I’ll keep quiet.


Comes to the Father?

I think you mean "comes to me"... Right?

Because why would anyone need to come to the Father if they were already with Jesus (if Jesus were God)???

It's always good to be civil to one's brothers

You should not mock God’s word. Its not cute or funny. It was quoted correctly. Are you calling God a liar?

They are one and you did mock the verse. Its not a good idea to be flip with God’s word. He gave it to us to know Him. Every verse has a purpose even though we may not know what that is.

I agree...

Except it was not the verse that was being mocked...

My apologies... It was a poor gesture....

There is the Unitarian belief that God is a monadic god, which separates Him from His children, removes Him from a personal connection to His dev**ees. (similar to Allah - testimonials by every Muslim convert to Christianity has addressed this impersonal aspect of Allah. It is one of the reasons they converted.)

There is the Tritheistic belief that God is three separate gods (similar to Brahma (the creator), Vishnu (the preserver), and Shiva (the destroyer).

There is the atheistic belief that God is non-existent.

There is progressive Christianity, sometimes called theological liberalism. Many of its tenets are in conflict with Scripture. Churches and faith groups that adopt this ideology risk not only departing from the t***h of the Gospel, but also declining membership.

There is Postmodern Christianity. It is about experience over reason, subjectivity over objectivity, spirituality over religion, images over words, outward over inward. Because experience is valued more highly than reason, t***h becomes relative. This opens up all kinds of problems, as this lessens the standard that the Bible contains absolute t***h, and even disqualifies biblical t***h as being absolute in many cases. If the Bible is not our source for absolute t***h, and personal experience is allowed to define and interpret what t***h actually is, a saving faith in Jesus Christ is rendered meaningless.

I could go on all day listing false doctrines that have butchered and bastardized the teachings of Jesus and the Apostles. The Word of God Himself - the Holy Bible - is not subject to man conceived doctrine, opinions, and relativistic, progressive, or secular interpretations. Doctrines of Christianity formed through human derived extrinsic ideas and egoistic self-centeredness are blasphemous, sometimes to the point of being downright evil.

There are five tests for determining false Christian doctrines.

1: The Test of Origin: Sound doctrine originates with God; false doctrine originates with someone or something.

2: The Test of Authority: Sound doctrine grounds its authority within the Bible; false doctrine grounds its authority outside the Bible.

3: The Test of Consistency: Sound doctrine is consistent with the whole of Scripture; false doctrine is inconsistent with some parts of Scripture.

4: The Test of Spiritual Growth: Sound doctrine is beneficial for spiritual health; false doctrine leads to spiritual weakness.

5: The Test of Godly Living: Sound doctrine has value for godly living, false doctrine leads to ungodly living.


There are two tests for T***h.

Correspondence to reality and Coherence. A t***h statement must be logically consistent, empirically adequate, and experientially relevant. The purpose of these tests is to seek answers to Origin, Meaning, Morality, and Destiny.


There are five disciplines that must be applied to realizing the t***h.

Metaphysics: the branch of philosophy that deals with first principles, abstract concepts, such as being, knowing, substance, cause, identity, time and space.

Epistemology: The theory of knowledge with regard to methods, validity, and scope. This is the investigation of what distinguishes justified belief from opinion.

Ethics: The branch of knowledge that deals with moral principles.

Anthropology: The study of human societies and cultures and their development. (The study of human biological and physiological characteristics and their development.)

Theology: The study of God and religious beliefs and theories when systematically developed.


It is a shame that so many do not realize that religion as a concept is a path of you seeking God; the Christian faith is God looking for you.

In T***h, the Bible is rich with proof of a Triune God. Easy to deny, difficult to comprehend.

Believe as you wish, rumi, but please understand that those of us who believe, believe in, have faith in, and praise our magnificent multi-dimensional Creator (Triune God - Father, Son and Holy Spirit) are resolute, unshakeable in our faith and will not, under any circumstance, succumb to false doctrines and the opinions of any and all detractors.
There is the Unitarian belief that God is a monadi... (show quote)




Amen and Amen

They claim to be one. Does each function separately? How do we come to the Father through Christ? And not through the Father? Read as it is written. If every verse has a purpose, why separate Christ from the Father?

Very interesting! I see where you have attempted to revive 6 threads that you created and had been abandoned! Will you be successful?
