| Rom 10:9 Because if you acknowledge and confess with your lips that Jesus is Lord and in your heart believe (adhere to, trust in, and rely on the truth) that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. |

How does that conflict with 'God is one person revealing himself in different ways (prosoopa)'? |

That wasn't the issue. You quoted this:
| Quote: | | 1. Christ is Lord (Rom. 10:9). Jesus Christ is truly God, and yet is a Person distinct from the Father and the Holy Spirit (Jn. 1:1, 14, 5:18, 8:24; Mat. 28:19). |
and replied with this:
| Quote: | | He isn't that. God is one person revealing himself in different ways (prosoopa). |
Scripture proves that your assertion is incorrect; Christ Jesus is Lord, and He is truly God. |

That isn't the issue. Jesus is not 'a Person distinct from the Father and the Holy Spirit'. God is one person revealing himself in different ways (prosoopa)'; not three persons. |

My apologies rst, your inability to communicate your meaning clearly seems to have caused unnecessary problems.
However, you are still wrong. |

Maybe I communicated too well.

It's still 0/100 for your essay. Writing the title is not enough, you know. |

The one that commences 'However, you are still wrong.' If you don't get on with it, people will begin to suspect that you don't have the first clue how to justify that comment, I hope you realise. |

| The essay is called: Scripture. I need not add to what God has already provided. |

As it is for every (other) heresy. |

| I've yet to see you explain your meaning or attempt to support anything through scripture. |

I'm at a complete loss to explain how someone can repeatedly and categorically tell me 'Scripture disagrees with you' without understanding what I meant. Do I now understand that the statement 'Scripture disagrees with you' is withdrawn? |

| Thus far you've said nothing compatible with scripture. If you would care to explain something different than please proceed. |

That's not for someone whose statements don't even agree with his own statements to decide!
Talk to yourself. |

Firstly, I've not made any statements in disagreement with any other statements I've made.
Secondly, it is entirely up to me, or any other Christian, to discern and expose assertions that deny or contradict the Word of God. |
