The Alexandrian Greeks(Christians)were actually the ones who stood firm on the triune nature of God.
Lol...Are your serious? The Greeks promoted the trinity so of course they are the experts. Geeezzzzz.
The Greeks had many god's not just a trinity god as you suppose.

reasonable arguments? i have never met a trinitarian yet that i could describe as reasonable.
New American Standard Bible (NASB)
6 who, although He existed in the form of God, did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped,
Philippians 2:6
King James Version (KJV)
6Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God
Not a big fan of the KJV but The Who being Christ thought it not robbery though He had the right and privilege to be equal with who? "God" Equal with God? How can that be? God almighty has no equal right? This little bit of scripture says Jesus humbled himself is all. He however is God the same yesterday today and forever!! He was with and was God so John 1:1 says so eloquently states. However a little side note Jesus is now glorified and He is no longer the humble servant he chose to be but is King of Kings and Lord of Lords and just another title showing the true nature of Jesus.

your character.
(Job 32:6-9) . . .Young I am in days And you men are aged. That is why I drew back and was afraid To declare my knowledge to you men. I said, ‘Days themselves should speak, And a multitude of years are what should make wisdom known.’ Surely it is the spirit in mortal men And the breath of the Almighty that gives them understanding. It is not those merely abundant in days that prove wise,. . .
Originally posted by galveston75I don't want to read your cut & paste propaganda from the Watchtower The Philippians 2:6 puts a wrap on it. There are so many scriptures that point to the true nature of Christ that it's overwhelming. Once again I honestly say humbly I have no clue how God the father can be on His throne in heaven while God the Son did his redemptive work on earth but it really matters not so much because it is how God chose to reveal himself. Jesus has so many titles that show and prove who he is and his true nature and cults always twist that so be it I guess. I hope that you will see Christ for who He truly is someday. Just read the book of revelation to see the Glorified Christ in all of His shining Majesty!!! 🙂 Mean that with all of my heart. I'm not really worthy to even speak and yes I'm not a great Christian by any means but I really mean that with sincerity.
