1co1.3 Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from GOD OUR FATHER, and [from] the LORD JESUS CHRIST. |
1co2.10 But God hath revealed [them] unto us by HIS Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God. |
1co3.16 Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and [that] the Spirit of God dwelleth in you? |
1co6.19 What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost [which is] in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? |
1co8.6 But to us [there is but] ONE GOD, THE FATHER, of whom [are] all things, and we in him; AND ONE LORD JESUS CHRIST, by whom [are] all things, and we by him. [de6.4; is42.8; ml2.10; mk12.29-30,32; jn17.3; ro3.30; 1co8.4; ep4.6; 1ti2.5; ja2.19] |
1co11.3 But I would have you know, that the head of every man is CHRIST; and the head of the woman [is] the man; and the head of Christ [is] GOD. |
1co16.23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you. |
1j1.3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship [is] with the FATHER, and with his Son JESUS CHRIST. |
1j4.12 No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwelleth in us, and his love is perfected in us. |
1j4.13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit. |
1j5.5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but he that believeth that Jesus is the Son of God? |
1j5.6 This is he that came by water and blood, [even] Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth WITNESS, because the Spirit is truth. |
1j5.7 For there are three that BEAR RECORD in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and THESE THREE ARE ONE. {These three are one in bearing the record – this verse says nothing about the nature of God} {Father, Son and Holy Spirit are one in testimony – they all agree in bearing the one record – that Jesus Christ is the Son of God} {SDA 7BC p675} |
1j5.8 And there are three that BEAR WITNESS in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and THESE THREE AGREE IN ONE. {Confirms what was said in the previous verse} {these verses are about the Oneness of testimony and witness; not the Oneness of God – the subject of witness even continues in the next verse} {John is not dealing with the identity nor doctrine of God in this chapter; nor even within this letter} |
S.D.A. Bible Commentary No.7 page 675 for 1 John 5:7-8 – portions in bold for easy reading |
7. For there are three. Hebrew practice, based on Deut. 17:6; 19:15; etc., demanded consistent testimony from two or three witnesses before action was taken in certain legal disputes. John is here citing three witnesses in support of the divinity of his Master (1 John 5:5, 6, 8), thus assuring his readers of the reliability of his statement. |
Bear record. Gr. marture?, “to witness,” “to testify.” Marture? is translated “to bear witness” (v. 6) and “to testify” (v. 9). The Greek implies that the witness is being borne continuously. |
In heaven. Textual evidence attests (cf. p. 10) the omission of the passage “in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth.” The resultant reading of vs. 7, 8 is as follows: “For there are three that bear record, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.” The passage as given in the KJV is in no Greek MS earlier than the 15th and 16th centuries. The disputed words found their way into the KJV by way of the Greek text of Erasmus (see Vol. V, p. 141). It is said that Erasmus offered to include the disputed words in his Greek Testament if he were shown even one Greek MS that contained them. A library in Dublin produced such a MS (known as 34), and Erasmus included the passage in his text. It is now believed that the later editions of the Vulgate acquired the passage by the mistake of a scribe who included an exegetical marginal comment in the Bible text that he was copying. The disputed words have been widely used in support of the doctrine of the Trinity, but, in view of such overwhelming evidence against their authenticity, their support is valueless and should not be used. In spite of their appearance in the Vulgate A Catholic Commentary on Holy Scripture freely admits regarding these words: “It is now generally held that this passage, called the Comma Johanneum, is a gloss that crept into the text of the Old Latin and Vulgate at an early date, but found its way into the Greek text only in the 15th and 16th centuries” (Thomas Nelson and Sons, 1951, p. 1186). |
8. The Spirit. The apostle now recapitulates his testimony, but places the Spirit at the head of the list. When Jesus was baptized, the Holy Spirit in the form of a dove bore testimony to John that the one he had baptized was the divinely appointed Messiah, and God Himself proclaimed His Son’s praise (Matt. 3:16, 17). When Christ shed His blood upon the cross, His noble bearing and quiet dignity, aided by the ominous darkness and the earthquake, impressed onlookers with His deity (Matt. 27:45–54). Thus the Spirit operated with the events represented by the water and the blood (see on 1 John 5:6) to affirm that Jesus was the Son of God. |
These three agree in one. Literally, “the three are for the one thing,” that is, the three witnesses have the same objective in view—to testify to Christ’s divinity, that men might believe on Him and be saved. It was for this selfsame purpose that John wrote his Gospel (John 20:31). |
1j5.9 If we receive the WITNESS of men, the WITNESS of God is greater: for this is the WITNESS of God which he hath TESTIFIED of his Son. |
1J5.10 He that believeth on the SON OF GOD hath the WITNESS in himself: he that believeth not GOD hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the RECORD that GOD GAVE of HIS SON. |
1J5.11 And this is the RECORD, that GOD hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his SON. |
1J5.12 He that hath the SON hath life; [and] he that hath not the Son of GOD hath not life. |
1j5.13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God. |
1K1.13 Go and get thee in unto king David, and say unto him, Didst not thou, my lord, O king, swear unto thine handmaid, saying, Assuredly SOLOMON thy son shall reign after me, and he shall sit upon my throne? why then doth Adonijah reign? {Note the parallels between David/God the Father, Solomon/Jesus the Only Begotten Son of God, and Satan as Adonijah/the Spirit of God. In the trinity doctrine, Satan as Adonijah acts as ‘God the Spirit’. Adonijah attempts to seize the throne and reign despite David’s earlier promise that Solomon would reign after him.} |
1p1.11 Searching what, or what manner of time the SPIRIT OF CHRIST which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. |
1th1.1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians [which is] in God the Father and [in] the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from GOD OUR FATHER, and the LORD JESUS CHRIST. |
1th1.10 And to wait for HIS Son from heaven, whom HE raised from the dead, [even] Jesus, which delivered us from the wrath to come. {Note: The One True God of the Bible is a singular “I”, “Me”, “He”, or “Him”. It is never “They” or any other plural.} |
1th4.8 He therefore that despiseth, despiseth not man, but God, who hath also given unto us HIS HOLY SPIRIT. {Paul confirms that the Holy Spirit is an attribute of God; it is not another person nor god.} |
1th5.23 And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and [I pray God] your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. |
1th5.28 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you. Amen. |
1ti1.1 Paul, an apostle of Jesus Christ by the commandment of GOD our saviour, and LORD JESUS CHRIST, [which is] our hope; |
1ti1.2 Unto Timothy, [my] own son in the faith: Grace, mercy, [and] peace, from GOD OUR FATHER and JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD. |
1ti2.5 FOR [THERE IS] ONE GOD, AND ONE MEDIATOR between God and men, THE MAN CHRIST JESUS; [de6.4; is42.8; ml2.10; mk12.29-30,32; jn17.3; ro3.30; 1co8.4&6; ep4.6; ja2.19] {Note: A mediator is an impartial person.} |
1ti5.21 I charge [thee] before GOD, and the Lord JESUS CHRIST, and the elect angels, that thou observe these things without preferring one before another, doing nothing by partiality. {In the order of importance, the elect angels are mentioned after Jesus Christ – no sign of a Holy Spirit person or god.} |
2ch15.1 And the Spirit of God came upon Azariah the son of Oded: |
2co1.2 Grace [be] to you and peace from GOD OUR FATHER, and [from] the LORD JESUS CHRIST. |
2co1.3 Blessed [be] God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies, and the God of all comfort; |
2co1.4 Who comforteth us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort them which are in any trouble, by the comfort wherewith we ourselves are comforted of God. |
2co3.17 Now THE LORD IS THAT SPIRIT: and where the Spirit of the Lord [is], there [is] liberty. |
2co6.16 And what agreement hath the temple of God with idols? for ye are the temple of the living God; as God hath said, I will dwell in them, and walk in [them]; and I will be their God, and they shall be my people. [ex29.45; le26.11-12; zc2.10; re21.3] |
2co13.14 The grace of the LORD JESUS CHRIST, and the love of GOD, and the COMMUNION OF the Holy Ghost, [be] with you all. Amen. {Note: Communion means the sharing or exchanging of intimate thoughts and feelings, especially on a mental or spiritual level. Such implies a spirit and not a person. Notice also that Paul writes that our communion is OF the Holy Spirit, not with the Holy Spirit. As 1 John 1:3 tells us, “truly our fellowship [is] with the FATHER, and with his Son JESUS CHRIST”—the Holy Spirit is not mentioned.} |
2j1.3 Grace be with you, mercy, [and] peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love. |
2j1.9 Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son. |
2p1.1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: |
2th1.1 Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians in GOD OUR FATHER and the LORD JESUS CHRIST: |
2th1.2 Grace unto you, and peace, from GOD OUR FATHER and the LORD JESUS CHRIST. |
2th3.18 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen. |
2ti1.2 To Timothy, [my] dearly beloved son: Grace, mercy, [and] peace, from GOD THE FATHER and CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD. |
2ti1.7 For GOD HATH not GIVEN US THE SPIRIT of fear; but OF POWER, AND OF LOVE, AND OF A SOUND MIND. {With the trinity doctrine being a mystery, mankind could easily fear the unknown / unseen “god the holy spirit”.} |
2ti4.22 The Lord Jesus Christ [be] with thy spirit. Grace [be] with you. Amen. {Despite the Holy Spirit having been given, Paul correctly understands that it is the presence of Jesus – in the form of His Spirit (from the Father) – that will unit with “thy spirit”.} |
Ac2.17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of MY SPIRIT upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: |
Ac2.30 Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that GOD had sworn with an oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the flesh, he WOULD RAISE UP CHRIST TO SIT ON HIS THRONE; |
Ac2.38 Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. |
Ac8.16 (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) |
Ac8.36 And as they went on [their] way, they came unto a certain water: and the eunuch said, See, [here is] water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? |
Ac8.37 And Philip said, If thou believest with all thine heart, thou mayest. And he answered and said, I believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. |
Ac8.38 And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the eunuch; and he baptized him. |
Ac19.5 When they heard [this], they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. |
Cl1.2 To the saints and faithful brethren in Christ which are at Colosse: Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from GOD OUR FATHER and the LORD JESUS CHRIST. |
De6.1 Now these [are] the commandments, the statutes, and the judgments, which the LORD YOUR GOD commanded to teach you, that ye might do [them] in the land whither ye go to possess it: |
De6.2 That thou mightest fear the LORD THY GOD, to keep all his statutes and his commandments, which I command thee, thou, and thy son, and thy son’s son, all the days of thy life; and that thy days may be prolonged. |
De6.3 >Hear therefore, O Israel, and observe to do [it]; that it may be well with thee, and that ye may increase mightily, as the LORD GOD OF THY FATHERS hath promised thee, in the land that floweth with milk and honey. |
De6.4 Hear, O Israel: THE LORD OUR GOD [IS] ONE LORD: [is42.8; ml2.10; mk12.29-30,32; jn17.3; ro3.30; 1co8.4&6; ep4.6; 1ti2.5; ja2.19] |

Ep1.4 According as HE hath chosen us in HIM before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before HIM in love: {Note: The One True God of the Bible is a singular “I”, “Me”, “He”, or “Him”. It is never “They” or any other plural.} |
Ep1.13 In whom ye also [trusted], after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, {for it’s owner see ep4.30} |
Ep2.18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father. |
Ep3.9 And to make all [men] see what [is] the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in GOD, who created all things by JESUS CHRIST: |
Ep3.16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; |
Ep4.6 ONE GOD AND FATHER OF ALL, WHO [IS] ABOVE ALL, and through all, and in you all. [de6.4; is42.8; ml2.10; mk12.29-30,32; jn17.3; ro3.30; 1co8.4&6; 1ti2.5; ja2.19] |
Ep4.30 And grieve not the HOLY SPIRIT of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption. {Note: Ephesians 1:13 spoke about the ‘Holy Spirit of’ Promise; here, at the only other ‘Holy Spirit of’ instance in the Bible, we find it’s owner.} |
Ep5.5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in THE KINGDOM OF CHRIST AND OF GOD. {TWO Divine Beings have a kingdom. GOD, who is THE FATHER, and His Only Begotten Son, JESUS CHRIST. TWO Divine Beings have a throne [See Re22.1 & 3]. The throne is a 2 seater not a 3 seater; there is NO HOLY SPIRIT.} |
Ep6.23 Peace [be] to the brethren, and love with faith, from God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. |
Ex20.1 And God spake all these words, saying, |

Ex20.4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth: |
Ex20.5 THOU SHALT NOT BOW DOWN THYSELF TO THEM, NOR SERVE THEM: for I the LORD thy God [am] a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth [generation] of them that hate me; |
Ex20.6 And showing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments. |

Ge41.38 And Pharaoh said unto his servants, Can we find [such a one] as this [is], a man in whom the Spirit of God [is]? |
Ge41.39 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, Forasmuch as God hath showed thee all this, [there is] none so discreet and wise as thou [art]: |
Ge41.40 Thou shalt be over my house, and according unto thy word shall all my people be ruled: only in the throne will I be greater than thou. {Note, in these 3 verses, the parallels between Pharaoh/God the Father, Joseph/Jesus the Only Begotten Son of God, and the Spirit of God.} |
Ge41.41 And Pharaoh said unto Joseph, See, I have set thee over all the land of Egypt. {God sets Jesus over this sinful world.} |
He1.1 GOD, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, |

Ja1.1 James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting. |
Jn1.1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with {the} God, and the Word was God. {the} occurs in the the Greek Textus Receptus (otherwise known as the Received Text) of the New Testament. This is the koine Greek (or common Greek) from which the King James Version of the bible was translated. At John 1:1 there are two occurrences of the Greek noun the·os’ [god]. The first occurrence refers to Almighty God, with whom the Word was [“and the Word [lo’gos] was with God [a form of the·os’]”]. This first the·os’ is preceded by the word ton [the], a form of the Greek definite article that points to a distinct identity, in this case Almighty God [“and the Word was with [the] God”]. |
Jn1.2 The same was in {the} beginning with God. {Literally in Greek, John 1:2 says: ‘He was in beginning with God.’ Notice that in Greek there is no definite article before the word ‘beginning’. It makes sense to include the definite article ‘the’ in our English translation for the sake of clarity and English idiom. Thus, ‘He was in the beginning with God.’} |
Jn1.3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. |
Jn1.14 And THE WORD WAS MADE FLESH, AND DWELT AMONG US, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of THE ONLY BEGOTTEN OF THE FATHER,) full of grace and truth. |
Jn1.18 No man hath seen God at any time; THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, which is in the BOSOM OF THE FATHER, he hath declared [him]. {So Jesus came from the bosom of His Father} |
Jn3.16 >For GOD so loved the world, that he GAVE his ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. |
Jn3.17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. {3rd person usage} |
Jn3.18 >He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD. {3rd person usage} |
Jn4.24 God [is] a SPIRIT: and they that WORSHIP HIM must worship [him] in spirit and in truth. {Note: So why does there need to be another God the [Holy] Spirit? There already is one.} |
Jn5.26 For as the FATHER hath life in himself; so hath he GIVEN to the SON to have life in himself; |
Jn8.16 And yet if I judge, my judgment is true: for I am not alone, but I and the FATHER that sent me. {But no Holy Spirit.} |
Jn8.42 Jesus said unto them, If GOD were your FATHER, ye would love me: for I PROCEEDED FORTH AND CAME FROM GOD; neither came I of myself, but he sent me. {Literally FROM GOD – like Jn16.27, 16.30 & 17.8 this is not limited just to God’s heavenly location.} |
Jn8.43 Why do ye not understand my speech? [even] because ye cannot hear my word. {How true for those trinitarian believers who just switch off [cannot hear] and will not study.} |
Jn10.30 I and [my] FATHER are ONE. {Holy Spirit is not included.} |
Jn12.28 Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, [saying], I have both glorified [it], and will glorify [it] again. {If Jesus is a trinity god then who was talking to Him? Note that thy and I are both singular.} |
Jn14.10 Believest thou not that I AM IN THE FATHER, AND THE FATHER IN ME? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the FATHER that dwelleth in ME, he doeth the works. |
Jn14.22 Judas saith unto him, not Iscariot, Lord, HOW is it that thou wilt manifest thyself unto us, and not unto the world? {Judas asks HOW? not WHO?}. |
Jn14.23 JESUS answered and said unto him, If a man love ME, he will keep my words: and my FATHER will love him, and WE will come unto him, and make OUR abode with him. {NB: WE and OUR. Notice it’s the Father and the Son who makes their home INSIDE US; NOT THREE, only TWO beings live inside us by their Spirit.} |
Jn14.26 But the Comforter, [which is] the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. |
Jn14.28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come [again] unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. |
Jn15.26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, [even] the SPIRIT OF TRUTH, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me: |
Jn16.13 Howbeit when he, the SPIRIT OF TRUTH, is come, he will guide you into all truth: FOR HE SHALL NOT SPEAK OF HIMSELF; but whatsoever he shall hear, [that] shall he speak: and he will show you things to come. |
Jn16.14 HE SHALL GLORIFY ME: for he shall receive of mine, and shall show [it] unto you. |
Jn16.27 For the Father himself loveth you, because ye have loved me, and have believed that I CAME OUT FROM GOD. {Literally CAME OUT FROM GOD – like Jn8.42, 16.30 & 17.8 this is not limited just to God’s heavenly location.} |
Jn16.28 I CAME FORTH FROM THE FATHER, and am come into the world: again, I leave the world, and go to the Father. |
Jn16.29 His disciples said unto him, Lo, now speakest thou plainly, and speakest no proverb. |
Jn16.30 Now are we sure that thou knowest all things, and needest not that any man should ask thee: by this we believe that THOU CAMEST FORTH FROM GOD. {FROM GOD – see notes for Jn8.42,16.27 & 17.8} |
Jn16.31 Jesus answered them, Do ye now believe? |
Jn17.3 AND THIS IS LIFE ETERNAL, THAT THEY MIGHT KNOW THEE THE ONLY TRUE GOD, AND JESUS CHRIST, whom THOU hast sent. [de6.4; is42.8; ml2.10; mk12.29-30,32; ro3.30; 1co8.4&6; ep4.6; 1ti2.5; ja2.19] |
Jn17.4 I HAVE GLORIFIED THEE ON THE EARTH: I have finished the work which thou gavest me to do. |
Jn17.5 And now, O FATHER, GLORIFY THOU ME WITH THINE OWN SELF WITH THE GLORY WHICH I HAD WITH THEE BEFORE THE WORLD WAS. |
Jn17.8 For I have given unto them the words which THOU gavest ME; and they have received [them], and have known surely that I CAME OUT FROM THEE, and they have believed that THOU didst send ME. {CAME OUT FROM THEE – Again literally, just like Jn8.42, 16.27, 16.30 – see notes} |
Jo24.14 >Now therefore fear the LORD, and serve him in sincerity and in truth: and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the flood, and in Egypt; and serve ye the LORD. |
Jo24.15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, CHOOSE YOU THIS DAY WHOM YE WILL SERVE; whether the gods which your fathers served that [were] on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD. |
Lk1.31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. |
Lk1.32 He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord GOD shall give unto him the THRONE of his father David: |
Lk1.33 And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end. |
Lk1.34 Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man? |
Lk1.35 And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the POWER of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called THE SON OF GOD. {The “POWER of the HIGHEST” is GOD the Father; the Spirit of Christ (the Comforter) had not yet been given. The FATHER of JESUS was GOD.} {From the trinity perspective where you have a “God the Holy Spirit”, the Son of God would be fathered by “God the Holy Ghost” and by God the Father. Therefore, Christ would have a least two fathers [don’t forget “God the Son”] – the LGBTQIAP+ community would have got it right!} {Lesbian refers to a woman who loves other women. Gay refers to a person, often a man, who loves members or their own gender. Bisexual, or Bi, refers to a person who loves both or all genders. Transgender, or Trans, refers to a person who identifies as a different gender then what her/his birth certificate says. Queer refers to anyone who loves people of their own gender, either a gay person or a bisexual person. Intersex refers to anyone born with any of several variations in sex characteristics. Asexual/Aromantic, or Ace/Aro, refers to a person who does not experience sexual/romantic attraction. Pansexual refers to a person who loves any person for their personality, regardless of their gender. The “+” is for anything else “Abnormal” that is still to transpire. Praise God that there remains a Normal category.} {Also note that with Jesus Christ being the Holy Spirit, impregnating the virgin Mary, then He [Jesus] becomes the Biological Father of Himself!} |
Lk3.22 And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven, which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in thee I am well pleased. {With the trinity doctrine we have a Jesus formed from two fathers – if you say that the 3 gods are one then you must also say that Jesus formed himself!} |
Lk4.18 The Spirit of the Lord [is] upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, {Note: With the “Spirit of the Lord” as the Holy Spirit then, if a trinitarian person, we would have a literal god literally “piggy-backing” Jesus Christ.} |
Lk9.26 For whosoever shall be ashamed of me and of my words, of him shall the Son of man be ashamed, when he shall come in his own glory, and [in his] Father’s, and of the holy angels. {Again the holy angels are mentioned but not the Holy Spirit,} |
Mi5.2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, [though] thou be little among the thousands of Judah, [yet] out of thee shall he come forth unto me [that is] to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth [have been] from of old, FROM everlasting. [mt2.5-6, jn7.42] |
Mk12.28 >And one of the scribes came, and having heard them reasoning together, and perceiving that he had answered them well, asked him, Which is the first commandment of all? |
Mk12.29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, O Israel; THE LORD OUR GOD IS ONE LORD: [de6.4; is42.8; ml2.10; mk12.30,32; jn17.3; ro3.30; 1co8.4&6; ep4.6; 1ti2.5; ja2.19] |
Mk12.30 And thou shalt love the LORD THY GOD with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this [is] the first commandment. [de4.29, de6.5, de30.2,6,10; je29.13; mt22.37; lk10.27] |
Mk12.31 And the second [is] like, [namely] this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these. [le19.18; mt5.43, mt19.19, mt22.39; lk10.27; ro13.9; ga5.14] |
Mk12.32 And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: FOR THERE IS ONE GOD; and there is none other but HE: [de6.4; is42.8; ml2.10; mk12.29-30; jn17.3; ro3.30; 1co8.4&6; ep4.6; 1ti2.5; ja2.19] |
Mk12.33 And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love [his] neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices. |
Mk12.34 And when Jesus saw that he answered discreetly, he said unto him, THOU ART NOT FAR FROM THE KINGDOM OF GOD. And no man after that durst ask him [any question]. |
Mk13.32 >But of that day and [that] hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the SON, but the FATHER. [Mt24.36] {Again, no Holy Spirit} |
Mk15.34 And at the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani? which is, being interpreted, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? {thou implies a singular God – as a trinitarian god he would have said the plural you and, by an unexplainable mystery, he would have also been speaking to himself ! } |
Ml2.10 Have we not all one father? hath not one God created us? why do we deal treacherously every man against his brother, by profaning the covenant of our fathers? [de6.4; is42.8; mk12.29-30,32; jn17.3; ro3.30; 1co8.4&6; ep4.6; 1ti2.5; ja2.19] |
Mt3.11 I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that cometh after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to bear: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and [with] fire: {Fire – symbolizes the transforming energy of the Holy Spirit’s actions. In the form of tongues “as of fire”, the Holy Spirit rested on the disciples on the morning of Pentecost.} |
Mt3.16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: |
Mt3.17 And lo a VOICE from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. {Note: Here we see all the heavenly trio in action: God the Father [via His voice], His Only Beloved Son [in person for baptism] and the presence of His Holy Spirit. [The Talmud compares the Spirit of God to a dove that hovers over the face of the waters.] This heavenly trio is NOT in the trinity format.} |
Mt4.10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, THOU SHALT WORSHIP THE LORD THY GOD, AND HIM ONLY SHALT THOU SERVE. [de6.13, lk4.8] |
Mt11.27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and [he] to whomsoever the Son will reveal [him]. {Father and Son knoweth but no Holy Spirit is mentioned – although followers of Jesus are mentioned and will know. Under the trinity doctrine, this just does not make sense – surely a ‘God the Holy Spirit’ should know and would be cited before any mention is made of believers?} |
Mt16.27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works. {Apparently, “god the holy spirit” does bother to come.} |
Mt27.46 And about the ninth hour JESUS CRIED WITH A LOUD VOICE, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, MY GOD, MY GOD, WHY HAST THOU FORSAKEN ME? {THOU implies a singular God – as a trinitarian god he would have said the plural you and, by an unexplainable mystery, he would have also been speaking to himself ! } |
Mt28.18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All POWER is given unto me in heaven and in earth. |
Mt28.19 >Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: {At Matthew 28:19 reference is made to “the name . . . of the Holy Ghost.” But the word “name” does not always mean a personal name, either in Greek or in English. When we say “in the name of the law,” we are not referring to a person. We mean that which the law stands for; its authority. Robertson’s Word Pictures in the New Testament says: “The use of name [onoma] here is a common one in the Septuagint and the papyri for power or authority.” So baptism ‘in the name of the Holy Spirit’ recognizes the authority of the spirit, that it is from God and functions by His divine will.} |
Mt28.20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, [even] unto the end of the world. Amen. |
Ph1.2 Grace [be] unto you, and peace, from GOD OUR FATHER, and [from] the LORD JESUS CHRIST. |
Ph1.19 For I know that this shall turn to my salvation through your prayer, and the supply of the SPIRIT OF JESUS CHRIST, |
Ph2.6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be EQUAL with God: |
Ph4.19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus. |
Ph4.23 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with you all. Amen. |
Pn1.3 Grace to you, and peace, from GOD OUR FATHER and the LORD JESUS CHRIST. |
Pn1.25 The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ [be] with your spirit. Amen. {Despite the Holy Spirit having been given, Paul correctly understands that it is the presence of Jesus – in the form of His Spirit (from the Father) – that will grant the grace “with your spirit”.} |
Pr8.22 The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. |
Pr8.23 I was set up FROM everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. {From, not throughout} |
Pr8.24 When [there were] no depths, I WAS BROUGHT FORTH; when [there were] no fountains abounding with water. |
Pr8.25 Before the mountains were settled, before the hills WAS I BROUGHT FORTH: |
Pr8.26 While as yet he had not made the earth, nor the fields, nor the highest part of the dust of the world. |
Pr8.27 When he prepared the heavens, I [was] there: when he set a compass upon the face of the depth: |
Pr8.28 When he established the clouds above: when he strengthened the fountains of the deep: |
Pr8.29 When he gave to the sea his decree, that the waters should not pass his commandment: when he appointed the foundations of the earth: |
Pr8.30 Then I was by him, [as] one brought up [with him]: and I was daily [his] delight, rejoicing always before him; |
Pr30.4 Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? WHAT [IS] HIS NAME, AND WHAT [IS] HIS SON’S NAME, if thou canst tell? |
Ps51.11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not THY HOLY SPIRIT from me. |
Ps139.7 Whither shall I go from THY SPIRIT? or whither shall I flee from thy presence? {There is one God, a personal, spiritual being, the creator of all things, omnipotent, omniscient, and eternal, infinite in wisdom, holiness, justice, goodness, truth, and mercy; unchangeable, and everywhere present by his representative, the Holy Spirit.} |
Re3.21 To him that overcometh will I grant to SIT WITH ME IN MY THRONE, EVEN AS I also overcame, and AM SET DOWN WITH MY FATHER IN HIS THRONE. |
Re5.13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, [be] UNTO HIM that sitteth upon the throne, AND UNTO THE LAMB for ever and ever. |
Re6.16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of HIM that sitteth on the throne, AND from the wrath of THE LAMB: |
Re7.10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our GOD which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb. |
Re7.11 And all the angels stood round about the THRONE, and [about] the elders and the four beasts, and fell before the throne on their faces, and WORSHIPPED GOD, {The angels worship God the Father} |
Re14.7 Saying with a loud voice, FEAR GOD, AND GIVE GLORY TO HIM; for the hour of his judgment is come: AND WORSHIP HIM that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters. |
Re19.4 And the four and twenty elders and the four beasts fell down and WORSHIPPED GOD that sat on the THRONE, saying, Amen; Alleluia. |
Re22.1 And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of THE THRONE OF GOD AND OF THE LAMB. {NB: TWO Divine Beings sit on a combined throne. GOD, who is THE FATHER, and His Only Begotten Son, JESUS CHRIST. TWO Divine Beings have a kingdom [See v.3 & Ep5.5].} |
Re22.2 In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, [was there] the tree of life, which bare twelve [manner of] fruits, [and] yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree [were] for the healing of the nations. |
Re22.3 And there shall be no more curse: but THE THRONE OF GOD AND OF THE LAMB shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him: |
Ro1.7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called [to be] saints: Grace to you and peace from GOD OUR FATHER, and the LORD JESUS CHRIST. |
Ro8.9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the SPIRIT OF GOD dwell in you. Now if any man have not the SPIRIT OF CHRIST, he is none of his. |
Ro8.11 But if the Spirit of HIM that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by HIS Spirit that dwelleth in you. |
Ro8.14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. |
Ro15.19 Through mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God; so that from Jerusalem, and round about unto Illyricum, I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. |
Ro16.27 To God only wise, [be] glory through Jesus Christ for ever. Amen. |
Tt1.4 To Titus, [mine] own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, [and] peace, from GOD THE FATHER and the LORD JESUS CHRIST our Saviour. |
Tt3.5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and RENEWING of the Holy Ghost; {Note: You can’t renew a person nor a god. The Holy Ghost is an attribute of God; it is not another person or god.} |
Zc6.12 And speak unto him, saying, Thus speaketh the LORD of hosts, saying, Behold the man whose name [is] The BRANCH; and he shall grow up out of his place, and he shall build the temple of the LORD: |
Zc6.13 Even he shall build the temple of the LORD; and he shall bear the glory, and shall sit and rule upon his THRONE; and he shall be a priest upon his THRONE: and THE COUNSEL OF PEACE SHALL BE BETWEEN THEM BOTH. |
