All of the above

A

In His humanity

44
Q

no

The so called doctrine of co equality

50
Q

According to the Bible how was the Son sent (Gal. 4:4)

A

Made of a woman

51
Q

How do you know the Bible’s use of “sent” or “sent from heaven” does not mean sent as an eternal person from heaven, but only commissioned or sent as an agent of heaven

A
  1. Jn 1:6 shows John the Baptist was sent the same way. 2. Apostle, even used of Jesus (Heb. 3:1) means “one sent” proving this is always language of commission or God chasing to send a human representative. 3. If you say “sent” means Eternal person, you must have an eternal cousin named John.
52
Q

What is the major flaw of arguing for the trinity based on the idea that God could not be a god of love and show the capacity of relationship before He created unless He existed as a trinity

A

It is a philosophical argument that doesn’t start with scripture

53
Q

Could God have loved us before we were ever created

56
Q

Jn 5:19 says, “The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do; for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise.” What does this distinction point to and how do you know

A

The difference between the natures and roles of Christ as deity and humanity. 2. This scripture cannot be about two co-equal persons. 3. The Spirit is also missing so it cannot be about a “trinity” or there would be three.

57
Q

What were the two witnesses Jesus pointed out that testified of His ministry

A

Deity and humanity

58
Q

How many witnesses did the OT call for and why is this significant in disproving the trinity

A

The law said two witnesses were enough, but three was better if you could have them. If the testimony was about separate persons why not mention three
