A brief survey of anti-Trinitarianism

John 2 19 Jesus answered them, "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."
20 The Jews then said, "It took forty-six years to build this temple, and will You raise it up in three days?"
21 But He was speaking of the temple of His body.

For the non-trinitarian this verse is a problem, because how can Jesus raise Himself up, when Acts 2 states that it was God who did it. If Jesus is God, then not a problem, but if He wasn't then how do you explain it?

So they came and held Him by the feet and worshiped Him.
Matthew 28:9

When they saw Him, they worshiped Him, but some doubted.
Matthew 28:17

See everyone worshiping Jesus!

How could He permit this worship (I mean, check it out, He never once stopped it!),
seeing He had testified to Satan during His temptation in the wilderness:

And Jesus answered and said to him, “Get behind Me, Satan!
For it is written, ‘You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.’”
Luke 4:8, Matthew 4:10

Who Is this Jesus to give us commandments that we should serve and obey Him?

"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another;
as I have loved you, that you also love one another."
John 13:34

He is Elohim.

He is the King of Glory!

Questions like this are worthy of contemplation, surely. Thank you!
