  1. Paul, it is wonderful how you find the time and effort to reach the influential and reason with them.

  3. It stands to reason that a higher form of life is incoherent to a lower form of life or being. What else would we expect?

    The trinitarian aspect of his being must be incoherent or we would know God as he knows himself. Our being would be on the same level as his.

    For example we don’t expect it to be possible for a dog to have any mental concept of the human nature of his master do we?

    • so you think it is coherent to believe in an incoherent concept of God! I’m not sure you realise what you are saying. The dictionary defines incoherent as follows:

      something expressed in an incomprehensible or confusing way; unclear.

      1) unclear, confused, muddled, unintelligible, incomprehensible, hard to follow, disjointed, disconnected, unconnected, disordered, mixed up, garbled, jumbled, scrambled;

      2) not logical or internally consistent.

      So your concept of God is confused, muddled, disjointed, disordered, illogical etc

      As the Bible says ‘God is not the author of confusion!’

  4. If my belief in the trinity stays within the confines of it’s scriptural delineation then it is most certainly not incoherent. If I take the whole of the bible at face value I must believe in the triune nature of God. I may not be able to explain it to the satisfaction of those who do not believe it. I can only go as far as God has revealed in his word. If others need further explanation beyond what scripture has given that is their problem. I can live with that.

    But your “God Jesus” is NOT a tri-personal being. He’s a different “God”

  8. @ Burhanuddin1,

    Another incoherent comment.

    There is only one triune God. If there is a being that is the same as this one triune God that would imply that there are two triune Gods would it not? But that is nonsense as we all know.

    Then Jesus is not the triune God and so Jesus is not God.

    If Jesus is the triune God, then we have 2 triune Gods and worshiping them is polytheism.

    Thanks.
