No, you're retarded.

The Scripture literally says Jesus IS the Spirit.

So yeah... proving you WRONG, since you say Jesus is SEPARATE, DISTINCT FROM the Spirit.

Yeah, Jesus is the Spirit, therefore there is no "third person", "non-Jesus spirit" (gee I wonder who THAT could possibly be?). No trinity.

I just deny the trinity which isn't even biblical, and is in fact a cult doctrine.

You have no say in this anyway because you aren't even a Christian.

The US is a legitimate state now. At some point, you have to acknowledge it as legitimate. That being said, Israel needs to do something to help the Palestinians and allow them to feel represented and included as citizens OR give them their own state, and give up some of the good land for that. Can't just let a slow genocide occur or them be eventually pushed out.

BTW for all religious, Jesus was basically a Palestinian if he even existed at all. Remember that.

You called me JW like 6 times now, even though I confess Jesus is God, which they do not confess. Stop lying.

Still waiting for you to confess Jesus is Lord.

Then we can move on to 2 Cor 3:17.

No you are not a Protestant lol. Of course Jesus is Lord.

Eph 4:30And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.

Distinct

Quench not the Spirit. Despise not prophesyings. Prove all things; hold fast that which is good. Abstain from all appearance of evil.

Separate

Jn16:7
Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

Jesus makes clear distinction of a Separate person here, you deny God's own words.
You are a JW

Yes..the Bible is comprised of more than one Scripture, we read the Bible as a whole, not cherry pick verses that agree with our single point of view. You must be in Joel Osteen's camp I guess.

Again..
Jn16:7
Nevertheless I tell you the truth; It is expedient for you that I go away: for if I go not away, the Comforter will not come unto you; but if I depart, I will send him unto you.

Jesus makes clear distinction of a Separate person here, He does not refer to the Spirit as Himself.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

Hebrew word for Spirit here is ruach, a Seperate Being.
That's what Hebrew Class gets you.
But JW's don't know Hebrew..do they?

Israel is a stable power in one of the most unstable regions in the world. We actually gain a lot by supporting them.
-They've successfully prevented victories by radical nationalist movements
-They kept Syria in check while it was a Soviet ally, and continue to do so now that Russia is backing it
-The US makes a ton of money selling arms to Israel and, perhaps more importantly, Israel is able to provide battlefield testing of those arms, often against Soviet/Russian weapons
-We get a TON of intelligence assistance from Mossad
-Israel is a nuclear power. Basic foreign policy dictates that we want nuclear nations on our side whenever possible

Israel is one of the United States' largest arms importers. In the past decade, the United States has sold Israel $7.2 billion in weaponry and military equipment, $762 million through Direct Commercial Sales (DCS), more than $6.5 billion through the Foreign Military Sales (FMS) program.

In fact, Israel is so devoted to U.S. military hardware that it has the world’s largest fleet of F-16s outside the U.S., currently possessing more than 200 jets. Another 102 F-16s are on order from Lockheed Martin.

The United States has also underwritten Israel’s domestic armaments industry, by giving:

$1.3 billion to develop the Lavi aircraft (cancelled)
$625 million to develop and deploy the Arrow anti-missile missile (an ongoing project)
$200 million to develop the Merkava tank (operative); the latest version, the Merkava 4, uses a German V-12 diesel engine produced under license in the U.S. by General Dynamics
$130 million to develop the high-energy laser anti-missile system (ongoing).
https://ips-dc.org/us_arms_transfers...FMS)%20program.

Even with all of the weapons and assistance that we "give" to Israel, we're getting a payoff. For example, we can save money on R&D by giving Israel some money to develop missile defense systems rather than doing it all ourselves; we give them $200m to design a new tank, but the engines for that tank are built in the US, etc.

Lutherans are basically Roman Catholic, they worship the Roman Catholic god. The nicene creed is not Scripture.
