    You did not answer my question. Do you believe that all Three (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) are ONE God or do you believe they are THREE God's??

    The Bible teaches every true Christian has the Holy Spirit dwellling in their body, and their bodies are the temples of the Holy Spirit (1 Cor. 6:19; Rom. 8:9). BECAUSE their bodies are the temple of the Holy Spirit are they GOD also?

    DO YOU BELIEVE YOU ARE GOD or don't you have the Holy Spirit dwelling in your body? Do you believe your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit OR do you believe Paul has lied in 1 Cor. 6:19 and Romans 8:9???

    Why don't you answer my question first: So Jesus was not God prior to coming in the flesh?

    All you posted in reply to my questions was scriptural evidence that is not related to the point you are trying to make. You've made it sound as though the only reason Jesus is God is because His physical body was indwelt by the Holy Ghost. By that reasoning, as Greektim pointed out, the Temple in Jerusalem was God, as it was indwelt by the Spirit. That makes us God, as we are indwelt by the Spirit.

    Do you not see the faulty logic you are employing?

    (and yes, it's pretty clear that you're trolling us, but that doesn't give us liberty to allow blatant misrepresentations of God and God's Word...)

    Is your body the temple for the Holy Ghost?
    Yes or no?

    In other words, Old GT (aka new troll), what is your view of the Trinity? Can you explain your view of the inner-relationship and ontological character of the Father, Son, and Spirit?

    The Holy Ghost is God. The Holy Ghost is the Father of Jesus.

    Jesus is God because His Body is the temple of the Holy Ghost.

    In other words, Jesus is not God because He is God ("I am that I am"), but rather He is God because the Holy Ghost took up residence in His body. Am I reading you right, Old GT?

    If I am, then that's a disgusting theology you're following. You're denying the inherent deity of Christ as part of the Godhead and instead seeing the attributes of God as shifting to Christ through the machinations of the Holy Ghost. In other words: completely unbiblical.

    So you don't have a Trinitarian theology??? Are you saying the Spirit is the Father?

    This is text book trolling when you duck questions. I knew you would.

    No, I believe Jesus is God because He is God. I believe God the Father is God, God the Son is God, and the Holy Ghost is God. Jesus being God is not dependent on the Holy Ghost in any way. Jesus existed prior to His birth, while on earth was fully human and at the same time fully God without any dependency on the Holy Ghost. In other words his divinity was not determined by His being the temple for the Holy Ghost. Anything contrary to that is heresy.

    Before you make statements like this you cannot prove, it would be easier for you to just cut and paste anything I have said that you do not believe. And we can discuss it.

    Why, yes I have already stated that the Holy SPIRIT is the FATHER of JESUS CHRIST.

    Why do you believe this? I want to know exactly why you believe this you have said to me.

    This is not true. Everything is dependent upon the Holy Ghost.

    I'll tell you what. You go back and answer the questions asked of you and I will be glad to answer your questions. Fair enough?
