Sonship keeps asking me for this so I thought I’d put him out of his agony. It won’t be complete but it’s what I believe about a few areas of Christianity.

There is one God, one entity, one personality, one personage in the Godhead who is eternal, omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent. He is absolutely sovereign, accountable and in control.

God is spirit and has revealed himself to mankind over the ages in various manifestations and offices of his being. Most notably these being as Jesus Christ and as the given /poured out Spirit, but also as fire, smoke, a priest and as a voice among other manifestations.

Jesus is a veil of created flesh, the right arm of God which is laid bare. His flesh was torn like the temple veil and through him we have access to the almighty God. Jesus human extension of the one entity, he is not another person separate from God. Jesus was/is deity wrapped in human flesh and while free from the curse of sin, he was vulnerable to the weaknesses of the flesh: tiredness, emotion, hunger, pain etc. His flesh needed to draw strength from his spirit the same way we have to in prayer. He extended him and made himself a little lower than the angels in order to humble himself and wash feet. God himself cannot die, so he died by becoming flesh.

The purpose of the office of the son is not eternal, there is no “eternal son” mentioned in the Bible. The office of the son shall hand over all things to the office of the Father, as it says in scripture. The office of the son shall no longer exist but Jesus will forever be the visible physical expression of God the father. His avatar if you like (although I don’t really like that much myself).

The words in the bible are the inspired words of God. The bible is grossly misinterpreted by all of us at vaious times. The book itself is not holy, it is just a book.

There is no such place as a literal hell. Hell was done away with by Jesus when he secured the “keys” during and after his death. The depictions of hell in the Bible are metaphors for what life without the salvation of Jesus would be like, I.e. no mercy, no atonement, no redemption. Hell is what it would be without these things.

That’s it for now.

That is not exactly what I asked from you. It still CONCEALS any group that you have met with.
You're the one it seems in "agony" to say " I MET HERE. AND HERE IS WHAT THEY BELIEVED."

Now let's let you have some of your own medicine, Shall we ?

@sonship

Clarification. I wrote above after your sentence saying the book of the Bible itself is not holy.

That's true.

Elaborate. For example, what exactly do you mean by "various manifestations" and "other manifestations"?

Hypocrisy.
Lenient on Divegeester.
Strict with Christians like myself.

I don’t capitalise “entity” or “office”, I don’t make those words part of a cannon of teaching, I don’t call them “holy” or prefer them with “blessed” or some other sanctimonious adjective. In fact I don’t hold to them at all as teaching, they are just a way of using the English language to explain what I mean.

So why criticize Christians like me who want to believe ALL and EVERYTHING the Scriptures says about this arm of Jehovah God, even if it be very mysterious?

Do you think you did any better then what the co-workers wrote in "The Beliefs and Practices of the Local Churches" ? I found some things wrong with what you wrote. I would not subscribe to such a statement of faith as you have submitted here.
