If you know of Creeds during the times of those called by the Lord; Adam, Moses, Abraham, Israel or Matthew, Mark Luke and John etc which the Lord taught.

Please enlighten!

You made the assertion, not me. Do you know that your assertion is true? If so, how do you know?

A creed is a statement of belief. A good example would be "Thou art the Christ, the Son of the Living God" - St Peter.

God never said we need to understand how the Trinity works...He only said we have to believe in it...

All three entities of the Trinity in one place or another in the NT are referred to as the Lord...

****

this is putting words in God mouth he never said anything about using the word Trinity.

I too believe in the Father Son and Holy Ghost they are three seperate personages.

I went to the local County Fair here yesterday. There was a booth set up by the LDS and they have a new pamphlet about Joseph Smith.
The picture on the cover has him even more handsome than the one you often post! He gets purtier and purtier, and more deified ever year!

Think of a working wife (and mom)

On the job, people see her as a colleague.
To her kids, she’s their mom.
To her husband, she’s his lover.

Same entity, three distinct ways she’s seen.

He gets more white pure and delightsome by the year!

Then I'll repeat my original question: What is your purpose in posting this?

And which of those three is the one whose image we are created in???

Gen 1:26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

Here's a picture of the image of God...The Trinitarian God...

Gen 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

This is the 'our image' referred to in the previous reference...

Oh, I am there, I have no issues with the power of the true and only God.

Any one powerful enough to create the universe and yet loving enough to sacrifice himself in the flesh for my failings can be anything he wants...

The blog site is owned by an Atheist who derides and belittles all faiths.

Again I ask, what are you doing using it?

I think it is a valid point everyone needs to ask you.

Sad that you have grown desperate enough to do such.

You did notice the type of person who owns the blog site she has linked to.

Interesting.

Desperate.

EXACTLY!

Some things are revealed, not explained. And where revelation stops, so should we.

Well, at least this is an "OPEN" thread, LOL...maybe the caucus tag was inadvertently left off?

Look for an appeal to change the tag any time now. ;)

So apparently you do believe in three gods. Got it.

Yes. Have you noticed the posts from some ldsers? The fact that the blog site is a (really bad) anti-faith satire site does not take away from the responses from lds to posters and posters to lds. (Sorry, if this sounds snarky.)

Interesting. Desperate. CORRECT

I don't think it detracts from the post to post exchanges, but I do find it interesting where the LDS are getting their “ammo” now...

You are correct. There does seem to an obsession with naked people, homosexual innuendo and anti-Christian satire sites. Well, I guess you need your ammo where you can find it.
