Re: Is God a person?

And it's tied up at 6 to 6! Too early to call, but it does appear that the Oneness camp is rallying.

That was in another thread. Meant for here. I think.

Re: Is God a person?

At least on this forum, this poll shows 9 out of 16 pollsters don't understand the Trinity, because they don't understand what is meant by a person

can you define person as understood by some trinitarians. Like I said before, most trinitarians believe they will see three bodies in heaven.

Already did that. And besides the fact that you will never be able to prove what most Trinitarians believe, angels have bodies of some sort...does not make them human

I don't think I have ever heard anyone say that and I have asked scores of Trinitarians who they expect to physically see/meet in heaven. All say Jesus Christ.

Hoovie, I have spoken to trinitarians that believe Jesus will show them the Father on the throne and Jesus at His right hand. Have you read about the son of man and the ancient of days in the book of Daniel?
