Complete and utter nonsense.

First of all, He never claimed to be God.

Secondly, the Thief on the Cross was saved and there is no indication at alll he believe Jesus was God or had teaching about the Trinity.

Honest Trintarians at least admit that the Thief knew nothing of the Trinity.

***He knew Jesus. And Jesus was sitting there dying just like him. He knew Jesus was coming into a kingdom. Sounds to me like he had as solid an understanding as he could have, given his situation.

It’s obvious to me that your mind has been set. The amount of scripture that proves that Jesus is indeed God cannot be denied by any person indwelt by the Holy Spirit through grace.

***And what do honest non-Trinitarians at least admit? Most of the ones I’ve come across seem to throw large chunks of scripture under the bus in order to accommodate their idealogical views.

While a person today is likely saved when he accepts Christ as His Savior with as little faith as the thief on the Cross, the same saved soul who stumbles upon the Trinity, rejecting the Trinity for a false doctrine, falls out of fellowship and fails to advance spiritually.

The Christian walk is a spiritual walk.
