But BoxJoBox is stuck on the Arius heresy. Sure he has his verses, but our truth must be based on the whole Bible, and nothing but the Bible.
Having been a long-time Christian, I have seen many fine folks stuck on the dumbest of things, and there is no amount of discussion that will ever change them. Perhaps I'm wrong. I was stuck on some things like One Church One City, and I changed. Took me a long time, but I'm not stuck on OCOC any more. So there's always hope. 
And each of these dear Christians, at the core of their argument, is a self-righteous false-standard by which they can judge all others. That's the sad part. Unfortunately, they don't understand the motivation behind their unique dogma. Our only motivation should be love.
I have mentioned this story before about a " dear brother with a verse!" His proprietary verse was the Lord's instruction to the Pharisees to " pray in their closets." Literally! Accept no substitutes! You shall only pray in your closet. No other place is acceptable. And he regularly used his verse as a cudgel to beat every brother and every church he met.  |
I'm not stuck either. Thanks for the reasoned response.
So you don't care for OCOC, or Arianism. But you do care for the trinity, and that Jesus was/is God. And you call it, to be based on the whole Bible, and nothing but the Bible. Of course you can't quote the whole book to refute BjB.
Who says it is you that's stuck.
And any one claiming that they can know someone by 13 letters they wrote, is in dreamland.
