your UCG beliefs are also Mormon-like when it states Douglas, your United Church of God downgrades the Holy Spirit as no longer being God.

Oh? Wow...at least I don't believe in devil worship as you do!

[Mr. Lucky]

...at least I don't believe in devil worship as you do!

That may not be the most effective way to convince others of soundness of your point.

[Cronos]

I do believe people do worship the devil. haven't met anyone, but there are folks on the fringes

however, it is true that your United Church of God downgrades the Holy Spirit as no longer being God. -- correct?

[Cronos]

Oh and Doug, that was incorrect of you to distort what I said. your misquote was your UCG beliefs are also Mormon-like when it states Douglas, your United Church of God downgrades the Holy Spirit as no longer being God.

when I actually said your UCG beliefs are also Mormon-like when it states that Belief that the core of Jesus Christ's message was the coming of a literal earthly Kingdom and that people who are 'saved' will not go to heaven, but will live and rule eternally with Jesus Christ on earth after his second coming, and will subsequently share rulership over the entire universe as part of the 'God Family'.

Now, the downgrading of the Holy Spirit, which IS what the UCG does, correct? that is not Mormon-like but quite frankly implausible -- if Jesus said "I will send another", He is specifically intoning that the Holy Spirit is not just a figment, but, while it is part of the ONE Godhead, has an individual place.
