The thread seems to have suddenly taken a different direction. The thread is on whether or not faith is necessary for salvation. You seem to have taken it on a side track into the nature of God and the trinity. So at this point I will inteject an objection that the questions you posed beginning on post 43 are irrelevant.

Can we get back to the topic at hand?

I suppose. As long as you don't repeat your insinuation that a word must appear in Scripture verbatim for it to be a true idea which can be gleaned from Scripture.

This has always been my favorite verse for showing just what is necessary for everlasting life....don't hear it quoted much.

In the Greek so there can be no misunderstanding. John 6:28-29, [They said therefore to him, "What do we that we may work the works of God"? "Answered Jesus and said to them, "This is the work of God: that ye should believe on Him whom sent He."

From the mouth of the Lord..... and further down in verse 40 in plain English, ["For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in Him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.]
