But we are taking on His nature. Repentance is death of our will, or nature. Baptism is the burial of that dead body. And being born again of the spirit through the infilling of the Holy Ghost is our new life.

2 Peter 1:4 speaks of believers becoming "partakers of the divine nature" through God's promises. We are partakers of the divine nature, not in the sense of becoming literally God, but in becoming more like God in character and way of life. But we are partaking in that Divine nature/substance of God, we are not made God and we do not loose our human nature/substance. God’s divine nature helps us to become our true human nature. Think about it, Adam and Eve were in communion with God in the garden with human nature. Human nature /substance isn’t inherently bad, sin just corrupts

But bringing that back to the trinity discussion, Nature is referring to God’s substance, what he is made up of. You could never hope to describe the infinite Divine nature/substance using the finite human nature/substance as a reference point

True.
And 4 way stops here in podunkville idaho are where you demonstrate to the village how selfless you are. The purpose is to see who can be last to go.

I think rules of a 4 way stop are:
1. whoever is there first retains the right to wave everyone else through.
2. A more vigorous waver assumes the role and waves cars through.
3. If two cars arrive simultaneously, and only after a false start is made by both then the FIRST one to quickly wave the other through is allowed to sit there while everyone else goes first.

God only knows what happens when you have multiple cars AND pedestrians in the crosswalk. I guess the pedestrian is granted waving rights?

Its either that, or else “tie goes to the runner” i dont remember.

Funny you mention that because the out of towner snowbirds do that here in Arizona. The locals just stomp on the gas pedal. Left, right, straight, turn, whatever, just hit the gas and honk.

New Riff is a great mid range bottle. My group did a single barrel pick a couple of years ago. Phenomenal stuff.

This is a verse trinitarians like to use, but according to what you’re saying we are not actually in God’s likeness. And yes, we do have His nature in salvation. That is precisely what salvation is. It is us being changed from our “natural” way, or nature, to His nature.

Click to expand...

I am a Trinitarian and I never would reference this verse to support the trinity. That is because I understand what it meant it in it originally context. Here God is not talking to himself, he is talking to the heavenly hosts/divine council.

Additionally you seem to misunderstand what is meant by nature. Nature is not a reference to our natural way and does not reference behavior. What nature means in this discussion is what we are made of, our substance. We are made of a physical nature. God is made up of an immaterial nature. There are other spiritual beings that have an immaterial nature, but they do not have God’s immaterial nature. So to respond to what you said, no salvation is not us being turned into God’s nature/substance.

Take all the money and weapons from Ukraine and give it to the afrikaners / bores.

Then what about Genesis 1 where God says “let us make man in our image, after our likeness.”?

Click to expand...

Yes we are created in his image after the likeness of what we would call the divine council (I.e. co ruling/ administrating )But this language in the Hebrew and in the context of the ancient world does not mean what we as moderns have assigned to it. It does not mean we somehow have a piece of God’s divine nature. It means we are his representatives or his vice regents here on earth. The same language is used in ancient times to refer to a kings representative

Decompression chamber. Let them sit in 5 BAR or so, maybe 10 depending on the mood. Then when the time comes, 'instant vent' through a dump valve.

Tom Clancy had the right idea. I'm just adapting the principle to modern day expediency.

tree-huggers and fish-kissers can complain all they want. "Oh, too fast you say? Want us to slow down the relief to what 20 seconds?"

When completed, simply get the garden hose/pressure washer, and go again.

But to be a “son” one must be born…

Click to expand...

No son does not mean that. To be a son is a relational thing. How can you call someone who is adopted your son? It’s not that you have birth to him or that he is of your flesh, it is his relationship to you. In the same way, how can we be called sons of God? God does not birth us, rather it is our relationship to him

Also there are spiritual beings that are not born in the OT who are called sons of God. Son-ship does not equal birth

So the eternal Son is not the son because the Father birthed him, the eternal Son is a son because of his relationship to the Father. This language is by Jesus himself to put into human family terms the closeness of the eternal relationship in the Godhead

Correct, I do not understand the trinity, because as the Bible clearly states, I am made in the image of God and I am not triune. I am one person. I am a father, I’m a husband, I’m a friend, I’m a truck driver etc. but that doesn’t make me multiples. It means I am one person that is doing different jobs. God does the EXACT same thing. He is the Father. He fathered a son miraculously then he put that flesh on and walked among us. He was hungry, tired, happy, sad, and even tempted. Just like you and I for us to see that we can do it too. I don’t understand the trinity, but I am not confused as to who God is.

No what you are describing is called modalism and is not what is going on in the Bible. Further you seem to misunderstand what it means to be made in God’s image. That does not mean you somehow have God’s nature, it means you are his representative here as being an image ment in the ancient world.

Also yes you are one person and not multiple, but this is because you are not of a divine nature. You do not have the same attributes or the divine nature

But how can eternal be born? Jesus had a beginning at his physical birth. So was Jesus divine flesh that could do no sin? Was Jesus present at creation? If so then how did he die? Can a God die?

Click to expand...

No Jesus was not present at creation, the eternal Son was. Jesus is the union of the Nature of the Eternal Son with human nature. Jesus’ death on the cross was physical death, not spiritual death, so no God did not die
