The Canaanites are not descended from Abraham. Most of you seem to be using Canaanite and Arab interchangeably, but they are not necessarily the same, The Biblical narrative is that the Canaanites were already in the promised land when the descendants of Abraham arrived.

Yeah, Canaanites were descendants of Ham.

That doesn’t really describe the current orthodox understanding of the trinity.

here we are today. Most Christians today believe in a Trinity, a teaching not found in the bible.


The Great Commission in Matthew 28:19 explicitly shows that disciples are to be baptized “in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit.” The singular “name” unifies these three Persons under one divine identity, even as it distinctly lists each.

Berean Standard Bible

Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit -- Matthew 28:19

*********************

What is the Holy Trinity?

Nature and Roles of Each Person of the "Holy Trinity"

1. The Father

Often depicted as the Creator and the source of all that exists (e.g., Genesis 1:1), the Father sends the Son into the world (John 3:16). He is the one to whom Christ prays, demonstrating a relational distinction.

2. The Son

The Son, Jesus Christ, is eternally begotten, not made. He took on human flesh (John 1:14) to atone for sins through His death on the cross and triumphant resurrection. His role involves redemption, revelation, and rulership, sharing fully in the Father’s deity (John 10:30).

3. The Holy Spirit

The Spirit is not merely an impersonal force but a Person, described as Comforter, Teacher, and Advocate (John 14:26). He indwells believers, empowers the Church, convicts the world of sin, and testifies to Christ’s resurrection power (Romans 8:11).

Well. Here are the Biblical facts. Let’s pretend we did not just here a podcast or interpretation of it.

Beginning in Genesis and throughout the Bible we always here about one God. One God worshipped by Abel and Cain (Gen 4:3,4) Noah (Gen 8:20) Abraham, Issac, Jacob, Joseph…you get the picture.

I heard a poster say the Trinity is ubiquitous. Seems strange that a central teaching about worshipping God would not be explicitly recorded in the Bible. What I see from the Ten commandments down is God being referred to as one God.

And in the gospels, i see Jesus referred to as his son, dying for our sins, and teaching is to worship his father. I also see references of Christians being anointed by holy spirit, the same spirit that was used in Genesis to create the earth, descended on Jesus during his baptism. Or God’s power.

And of course, since we are all in on the trinity, Mary, a humble servant of God, privileged to give birth to his son miraculously…is now ‘the mother of God’.
This what is said about her (Luke 1:30, 35, 38).

Why are teachings not found in the bible preached as gospel? Perhaps the great apostasy that Paul and Peter foretold actually happened.

It would make sense that the further we drift from Bible teachings, the more corrupt ‘Christianity’ becomes

If it is not found in the bible, it is even worse to cherry pick scriptures out of context to attempt to support it

An ancient bible reader that disputed the Trinity? No. Just a student of the bible. Don’t know much, but if it is not in the Bible, it likely (at least for me) is a pagan teaching.

Think for a moment: why did Egypt and Babylon all have Trinities they worshipped, and the Israelites were constantly being warned not to adopt it? In fact they even got punished for intermingling their worship.

Read Exodus 20:2,3. What does that sound like to you?

The belief in a triune God isn’t a belief in 3 separate gods.

Trinity or no the fundamental problem with Biblical Jesus to me has always been the same. Everybody runs around saying God gave His only begotten son blah blah blah. They say this as if it's a big deal like if I gave my son. It's framed in human terms. But there's nothing human about it. He knows how it's going to turn out from the start. At least if we accept all of the other beliefs about God. It's not really much of a sacrifice to give up your son that you know you're not really giving up from the very beginning because you have all the power. So why am I supposed to be impressed that he gave up his only begotten son to be crucified on the cross? We are talking about supposedly Eternal beings here.
