As per the topic at hand...I have no problem with the terminology, but it's not something that I can think that I'd have a reason to use it. I usually stick with "Jesus", will occasionally mention the Holy Spirit, but "God the Father, tends to bring to mind Big Bully OT god.

MICH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



It's good to see you back. I bob in and disappear and bob in and disappear again. Thanks for weighing in.

This place is extremely helpful for sharpening my debating skills for philosophical discussions with my husband. (Much better than me saying "well, that's just the way I feel, don't ask me to explain it...LOL)

Let me know if you have any problems with that phrase and please briefly explain what your issue(s) is (are) with the aforementioned phrase.
My issue with it is that it is too long. Obviously someone came up with the phrase in order to please as many camps as possible.

Can you imagine how tiring prayers would be if you said "God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit" in every instance where you would have previously said just "God"? It almost reminds me of the story of Tikki Tikki Tembo-no Sa Rembo-chari Bari Ruchi-pip Peri Pembo.
