Jesus: Trinity is Blasphemy 

Acts 2:22 Ye men of Israel, hear these words;
        Jesus of Nazareth, a MAN APPROVED of God among you
        BY miracles and wonders and signs,
        which God did BY HIM in the midst of you, as ye yourselves also know:
Acts 2:23 Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge of God,
        ye have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and slain:
Acts 2:24 Whom God hath raised up,
        having loosed the pains of death:
        because it was not possible that he should be holden of it
Acts 17:31 Because he hath appointed a day,
        in the which he will judge the world in righteousness
        by that MAN whom he hath ORDAINED;
        whereof he hath given assurance unto all MEN,
        in that he hath raised him from the dead.
1Tim. 2:5 For there is ONE GOD
        and one mediator between God and men,
        the MAN Christ Jesus;
Rom. 5:15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift.
        For if through the offence of one many be dead,
        much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace,
        which is by ONE MAN Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.
1Cor. 15:45 And so it is written, The first MAN Adam was made a living soul;
        the LAST Adam was made a QUICKENING SPIRIT.
Only God the Father exists in Everlasting Life.
God gave Jesus the authority to have life in Himself.
The Promise of The Holy Spirit means that God gave the glorified Jesus the Evangelistiic ROLE in the STATE of Holy Spirit.
Spirit is NEVER a person nor can it be.

John 5:27 And hath given him authority to execute judgment also,
        BECAUSE he is the SON of MAN.
Deut. 18:13 Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.
Deut. 18:14 For these nations, which thou shalt possess,
        hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners:  [empowered with musical instruments]
        but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.
Deut. 18:15 The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee
         a PROPHET from the MIDST OF THEE
         OF thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken
Deut. 18:16 According to all that thou desiredst of the LORD thy God in Horeb
         in the day of the assembly, saying,
        Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God,
        neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not.
Deut. 18:17 And the LORD said unto me, 
      They have well spoken that which they have spoken
Deut. 18:18 I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee,
        and will PUT my WORDS in his MOUTH; [THE meaning of Spirit]
        and he shall SPEAK unto them all that I SHALL command him.

FALSE CREED:
God enthroned Jesus as the Lord of creation.

TRUTH:  Jesus is the creator or PURCHASER of His Kingdom for the Messianic Period.

FALSE CREED: We believe in God the Holy Spirit, the GIVER and RENEWER of LIFE,
TRUTH: God the FATHER has Eternal Life.  God gave the MAN Jesus to have Life in Himself and to Judge everyone BECAUSE He was-is the SON OF MAN.

FALSE CREED: whom the Father, through the Son, POURED out upon us,
TRUTH: In ALL passages where SPIRIT is poured, falls etc the product is the WORDS which God puts into the MOUTH of a few chosen men.

but he that seeketh HIS glory that SENT HIM, the same is TRUE, and no unrighteousness is in him.

There is no  TRICK you can TURN by Theology which can possibly change the Divine statement necessary for being a DISCIPLE or Students.  Students of God as Revealed by His inclusive and exclusive pattern in the PROPHETS only INVOLVEMENT is to Search The Scriptures to discover what Christian Scriptures say unambigiously.  You don't have to believe any of the Teachings of Jesus but if you are His DISCIPLES you will have no need to go beyond the PATTERN of READING or SPEAKING without using means of Sorcery such as Rhetoric, singing, playing instruments or ACTING as a way to understand what you claim and SELL as your own opinion.

Lipscomb's Thesis  Many have seen the Holy Spirit employ the Enneagram as an effective means for the “being made new” part of Paul’s equation. This is not just about “finding your number”; rather this is an invitation to participate in ongoing journey of transformation.

SPIRIT means "God put His WORDS into the MOUTH of A Moses, the Prophets and LASTLY the MAN Jesus of Nazareth when He was Sanctified and Sent at His Baptism.  The Enneragram--something else to sell--is supposed to remove DELUSIONS. However.

Inventing Physical and Legalistic means to understand Spiritual Revelation has LED to the most damaging of all DELLUSIONS: that the ONE ALMIGHTY is really conjoined triplets.  "The Holy Spirit is a God person whih makes the Father and Son INTELLIGIBLE."
   

Isa 8:19And when they shall say unto you,
        Seek unto them that have familiar spirits,
        and unto wizards that peep, and that mutter:

This Arion was a lyre-player second to none in that age; he was the first man whom we know to compose and name the dithyramb1 which he afterwards taught at Corinth.

to work for justice and peace

We believe in the resurrection of the dead,
wait for God’s new heaven and new earth,

Outline

New Hermeneutic: The doctrine of the Spirit, long neglected in the West,
        has come to the forefront as Christendom has collapsed.

Matt. 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them,
        saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.

SPIRIT meant that God put His WORDS into the MOUTH of the MAN Jesus for the LAST time.

Matt. 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations,
         baptizing them in the name [singular]
         of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Matt. 28:20 TEACHING them
        to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:
        and, lo, I am with you alway,
        even unto the end of the world.
        [a165 Aion Messianic Age]
        Amen.

Of the "another Comforter" Jesus promised I will come to you. The Promise of the Holy Spirit was the Evangelistic Office in His glorified STATE of Holy Spirit.

1John 2:1 My little children, these things WRITE I unto you, that ye sin not.
        And if any man sin,
        we have an advocate [paraclete] with the Father,
        Jesus Christ the righteous:
1John 2:2 And HE is the propitiation for our sins:
        and not for ours only, but also for the sins of the whole world.
1John 2:3 And hereby we do know that we know him,
         IF we keep HIS commandments.
1John 2:4 He that saith, I know him,
        and keepeth not his commandments,
        is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
1John 2:5 But whoso keepeth his WORD,
         in him verily is the love of God perfected:
        hereby know we that we are in him.
1John 2:6 He that saith he abideth in him
        ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.

God is WORD in the same class with SPIRIT, LIFE, LIGHT.  Jesus SPOKE God's WORD, Logos or Regulative Principle.

Theologians are doomed to call God a liar or INCOMPETENT.  If God had wanted any kind of music in the tuneful sense He was INTELLIGIBLE But denied by C. Leonard Allen.

        wretched things of shame, mere bellies,
        we know how to speak many false things as though they were true;
        but we know, when we will, to utter true things.”
            ...and they bade me sing of the race of the blessed gods that are eternally,
                but ever to sing of themselves both first and last.

NOT:
Spirit IS a God. But: The Spirit OF God.  Spirit is never the NAME of a God. If The Holy Spirit were a God, it would be an insult to address "him" as a THE.  Holy is an adjective and describes the mental disposition of God or Man.

FALSE CREED: this focus provides a check against distortions and deficiencies in the Body of Christ.

In His Glorified State Jeus REIGN in the STATE (never a person) of Holy Spirit

TRUTH: 2Pet. 1:1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ,
        to them that HAVE obtained like precious faith with us
        through the
        righteousness
        of God
        AND-------------------------------Jesus was NOT God
        our Saviour Jesus Christ:
2Pet. 1:2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you
        through the knowledge of God,  [Just one Theos]
        AND-------------------------------Jesus was NOT God
        of Jesus our Lord,
        [Jesus was made Kurios 30 years after He came in the FLESH]
2Pet. 1:3 According as HIS divine power
        hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness,
        through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
2Pet. 1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises:
        that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.




"The Spirit visited Israel on certain occasions and in certain individuals, but in the new age, God pours out the Spirit, not just on kings and prophets, but on every believer as a permanent possession.

        1 Corinthians 12:13 says that all believers "drink of one Spirit," a verse that alludes to Old Testament prophecies about the Spirit being poured out in the age that is to come."


2Sam. 23:2 The SPIRIT OF the LORD SPAKE by me,
         Parallel: and his WORD was in my TONGUE.

Prepositions are the MISSING LINK an all documents which Corrupt the WORD meaning selling their words at wholesale claiming that they are speaking what GOD commanded to be SPOKEN and never SUNG.

God's WORD is Dabar or Logos or His Regulative Principle.  Logos is a "god" only among Hermes as the father of the New Hermeneutics.  Hermes is the god of thieves and LIARS, homosexual religion, conductors of dead spirits into hell and the INTERCESSOR between his CUSTOMERS and their god. For the LAST TIME God put His WORD into the MOUTH of the MAN Jesus.  Jesus and everyone SPAKE--without change--the SPIRIT without Measure or METRON meaning musical measure always known to deceive the simple minded.

THE ANTITHESIS OF THE NEW LIPSCOMB

2Kings 23:24 Moreover the workers with familiar spirits, and the wizards, and the images, and the idols, and all the abominations that were spied in the land of Judah and in Jerusalem, did Josiah put away,
        THAT
he might perform the WORDS of the law
        which were WRITTEN in the BOOK that Hilkiah the priest
         found in the house of the LORD.

A fact of history is that LAWS or The Book of The Covenant for spiritual training are ALWAYS recorded.  This is the only way to MARK people who claim to be SUPERIOR to God and His SPIRIT or His MIND.

Lesson 2: The Spirit in the Trinity

Key Scriptures: 1 Cor 12:4-6; 2 Cor 13:14; Eph 4:4-6; Rom 5:1-8 Reading: Chapter 3, pp. 59-62, 71-74


The Corinthians, like Leonard Allen, thought that any thing they said was a GIFT.  Not doubt this was psychological violence as it is today.  However, Paul laid down some rules to govern those who prophesied or spoke the WORD by inspiration.  There is no reason that an Apostle had ordained anyone in Corinth with the gift until THAT WHICH IS PERFECT was available.  As each Epistle is written the SALUTATION mentions only the ONE GOD whose Spirit or Breath.
1Cor. 1:1 Paul, called to be an apostle
        of Jesus Christ
        through the will of God, and Sosthenes our brother,


1Cor. 12:1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brethren,
        I would not have you ignorant
1Cor. 12:2 Ye know that ye were Gentiles,
        carried away unto these dumb idols, even as ye were led.
1Cor. 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand,
        that no man speaking by the Spirit OF God
        Calleth Jesus accursed:
        and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
1Cor. 12:3 Wherefore I give you to understand,
         that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calleth Jesus accursed:
         and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
1Cor. 12:4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
1Cor. 12:5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
1Cor. 12:6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.
1Cor. 12:7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit withal.

Because a temporary Gift served a whole Congregation, if you had one TRANSLATOR of foreign tongues, you didn't need another,  The women might have served Apollyon. The only PATTERN for EVERYONE was TO LEARN IN SILENCE.

1Cor. 12:8 For to ONE is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom;
        to ANOTHER the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
1Cor. 12:9 To
ANOTHER faith by the same Spirit;
        to
ANOTHER the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;

That would guard against a pagan who claimed that Jesus was a Fraud.  Unfortunately, that is no longer true in churches with Senior Pastor Persons.

THAT WHICH IS PERFECT

1Cor. 2:13 Which things also we SPEAK, not in the WORDS which man’s  WISDOM  teacheth,
        but which the Holy Ghost TEACHING; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

Spiritual is 4152.pneumatikos, pnyoo-mat-ik-osЂ; from 4151; non-carnal, i.e. (humanly) ethereal (as opposed to gross), or (daemoniacally) a spirit (concretely), or (divinely) supernatural, regenerate, religious: — spiritual. Compare 5591.

Man's Wisdom is g4672 Sophia a practiced skill (legalism) of any art but especially of singing or playing instruments especialliy in a "holy place.."

1Cor. 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God:
        for they are foolishness unto him:
        neither can he know them,
        because they are spiritually discerned.

1Cor. 2:15 But he that is SPIRITUAL judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
1Cor. 2:16 For who hath known the MIND of the Lord, that he may instruct him?
        But we have the MIND of Christ.

Paul quoted Isaiah breathed into the Prophets by the Spirit OF Christ or GOD'S BREATH: the same breath HE breathed into Jesus without measure or METER since there is NO METRICAL Scripture.

Isaiah 40:13 Who hath directed the SPIRIT OF the LORD, or being his counsellor hath TAUGHT him? 

2Cor. 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy

1Cor. 1:3 Grace be unto you, and peace,
from
         GOD our Father,
         AND
         from the Lord Jesus Christ.
1Tim. 2:5 For there is ONE GOD,
        and one MEDIATOR between God and men,
        the MAN Christ Jesus;


2Cor. 13:11 ¶ Finally, brethren, farewell. Be perfect, be of good comfort, be of one mind, live in peace; and the God of love and peace shall be with you.
2Cor. 13:12 Greet one another with an holy kiss.
2Cor. 13:13 All the saints salute you.
 

2Cor. 13:14 The GRACE of the
        Lord [Kurios] Jesus Christ, and the love of God [Theos], and the communion of the Holy Spirit

        and one MEDIATOR between God and men,
        the MAN Christ Jesus;

Eph. 4:2 ¶ With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love;

Eph. 4:7 But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ.
Eph. 4:8 Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.
Eph. 4:9 (Now that he ascended, what is it but that he also descended first into the lower parts of the earth?
Eph. 4:10 He that descended is the same also that ascended up far above all heavens, that he might fill all things.)
Eph. 4:11 And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

Eph. 4:14 That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro, and carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of men, and cunning craftiness, whereby they lie in wait to deceive;

Rom 5: 1-8
  10


Eph. 5:1 ¶ Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children;
Eph. 5:2 And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweetsmelling savour.
Eph. 5:3 ¶ But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
Eph. 5:4 Neither filthiness, nor foolish talking, nor jesting, which are not convenient: but rather giving of thanks.
Eph. 5:5 For this ye know, that no whoremonger, nor unclean person, nor covetous man, who is an idolater, hath any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
Eph. 5:6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience.
Eph. 5:7 Be not ye therefore partakers with them.
Eph. 5:8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:
Eph. 5:9 (For the fruit of the Spirit i
        is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
Eph. 5:10 Proving what is acceptable unto the Lord.
Eph. 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

Eph. 5:12 For it is a shame even to speak
        of those things which are done of them in secret.
Eph. 5:13 But all things that are reproved
        are made manifest by the light:
        for whatsoever doth make manifest is light.
Eph. 5:14 Wherefore he saith, Awake thou that sleepest,
        and arise from the dead, and Christ shall give thee light.
Eph. 5:15 See then that ye walk circumspectly,
        [BUT] not as fools, but as wise,
Eph. 5:16 Redeeming the time, because the days are evil.
Eph. 5:17 Wherefore be ye not unwise,
       
[BUT] understanding what the will of the Lord is.
Eph. 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess;
       
[BUT] but be filled with the SPIRIT;
Eph. 5:19 SPEAKING to yourselves
        in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs,
       
[BUT] singing and making melody in your heart to the Lord;
Eph. 5:20 Giving thanks always for all things unto God and the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ;
Eph. 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
Eph. 2:3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.
Eph. 2:11 ¶ Wherefore remember, that ye being in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands;

Eph. 2:15 Having abolished in his flesh the enmity, even the law of commandments contained in ordinances; for to make in himself of twain one new man, so making peace;
Eph. 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;

Eph. 5:29 For no man ever yet hated his own flesh; but nourisheth and cherisheth it, even as the Lord the church:
Eph. 5:30 For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.
Eph. 5:31 For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall be joined unto his wife, and they two shall be one flesh.
Eph. 6:5 Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters according to the flesh, with fear and trembling, in singleness of your heart, as unto Christ;
Eph. 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

Eph. 1:13 In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,
Eph. 1:17 That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
Eph. 2:2 Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:
Eph. 2:18 For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the Father.
Eph. 2:22 In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.
Eph. 3:5 Which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men,
        as it is now revealed unto
        his holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit;
Eph. 3:16 That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man;
Eph. 4:3 Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace.
Eph. 4:4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
Eph. 4:23 And be renewed in the spirit of your mind;
Eph. 4:30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
Eph. 5:9 (For the fruit of the Spirit is in all goodness and righteousness and truth;)
Eph. 5:18 And be not drunk with wine, wherein is excess; but be filled with the Spirit;
Eph. 6:17 And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
Eph. 6:18 Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints;


Rom    . 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
Rom. 8:3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
Rom. 8:4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us,
        who walk not after the flesh,
        but [
who walk] after the Spirit.
Rom. 8:5 For they that are after the flesh
        do mind the things of the flesh;
        but they that are after the Spirit [
do mind] the things of the Spirit.
Rom. 8:6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually minded is life and peace.




Diving deep—together.

The Institute for Christian Spirituality nurtures the discipleship of Christ followers by cultivating a deeper awareness of and participation in the Holy Spirit’s redemptive activity among us, within us, and through us in the world. We pursue this mission by exploring spiritually forming practices and facilitating the journey with others through spiritual friendships and spiritual direction.

In March 2010, Lipscomb opened the Institute for Christian Spirituality, bringing together several seasoned spiritual formation programs with added programming for nurturing intentional personal spirituality and discipleship through study, seminars and conferences. The institute’s goal is to help students and the greater community understand, enrich and share their experience with God.
