Gal 1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead

John 2: 19-20 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up. 20 Then said the Jews, Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

Romans 8: 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.

Looks like God the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit raised Jesus from the dead.

Because the devil is the father of all lies and he shapes things in this world to make himself appear as God or to confuse the people so they will deny the true God.

Only if you add your own interpretation to this and ignore the scriptures that clearly and absolutely say that it was God the father. The verse you quote is saying that it was the spirit of the father.

Gal 1:1 Paul, an apostle (not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father who raised Him from the dead),

The Word = communication. We cant look upon God and our eardrums would likely burst as well as the rest of these fleshy bodies if he actually spoke to us for real?

The spirit of the father = the Holy Ghost = the spirit of God

You seem to ignore scripture that clearly states they are three in one, all in one and one in all.

Absolutely...but not a separate person in a trinity. It's the interaction of God in our world.

All good verses you bring up; to avoid (it appears) dealing with the GRIEVE one.

My position isn't that there is not a holy spirit. My position is that the holy spirit is God's holy spirit...his agency in this world. But it's not a separate person. So yes, we're grieving God when we grieve his interaction in our life.

There is no legitimate scripture that states this. There is a spurious addition to scripture added much later in order to justify the trinity doctrine.

According to the blessings Paul wrote, we humans have a body, a soul, and a spirit. If you believe God’s Word then we can go further, with a Physics lesson. If you doubt God’s Word is as He wants it for us, then I leave you in your doubts for God to deal with you further.

Well we know from history that Paganism preceded christianity, the Greek and Roman gods were in place long before the “Christ event.”

We know from history that Noah preceded the tower of Babel.

I am a practicing agnostic, and I am going to keep practicing till I get to Carnegie Hall.

I chuckled; then I read your tagline.

Well; if the Holy Ghost is NOT GOD; then it/he/she is a CREATED entity.

If this is so; why is it STILL in English translations of the Bible?

Quote- re read post #50, all of it. This time try really hard to comprehend the clear explanation.

Until the people break free from Rome’s chains, they will never see the fullness of Truth.

People would call the popes ‘antichrist’ and yet still not wonder what that says about the Pope Gregory ‘antichrist’ calendar that the world works and worships from..no testing or proving of all things is dangerous.

True blindness MHGinTN.. Vexing but prophetic..

Satan does deceive the whole world. And he does it first by having people believe today is Tiw’s day..

So subtle.. But again, prophetic. It’s why the angel in Revelation 14 says worship Him who made heaven and earth, the sea and the fountains of water..

Not sure what tiw ever did to deserve a day.. His word says to teach me to number my days, so I can attain a heart of wisdom. Not name them after things and false gods and goddesses.

And we also am told to be not conformed to the world but be transformed by the renewing of one’s mind..

Most haven’t gotten that far on the journey in these last days.

All for His Glory people do get led out!
Completely freeing experience!
