If you are a Christian for a significant amount of time you would have no doubt ran into people who called themselves Christians but denied the essential doctrine of Christ being God and also the doctrine of the Trinity. No doubt they will throw out verses and argument to say that Jesus was not God. Is there a witty ditty one can have that helps us remember the principle of how to respond to such doctrinal attack on the person and work of Christ?

There’s a lot of bad arguments against the Trinity, more than I have time to fully respond to. In one of the comments in my previous post “Argument against the Trinity? Jose Ventilacion on the death of Christ” there was a comment from “Alfeo piedad” that tried to argue against the Trinity:
If the trinity is true , it should have been complete from the beginning.”
I want to reply concerning the methodology behind the objection. This objection sets up an artificial standard of proof against the Trinity in that the Trinity can only be true if the Bible has taught it completely from “the beginning.” Here’s my reply:

Sam Shamoun has two videos and a couple of posts on his blog critiquing Inglesia Ni Cristo arguments that Jesus is not God from the James White debate with Iglesia Ni Cristo apologist Joe Ventilacion.
It’s worth praying that God would use these resources knowing that this group is the third largest religion in the Philippines.
Here’s the first video:

One of the comments in my previous post “Argument against the Trinity? Jose Ventilacion on the death of Christ” had a comment from “Javier” that tried to argue against the Trinity:
History and Archeology show that the Trinity comes from the false religion. You can find images and sculptures of trinitarian gods from Babylon and Egypt in museums and ancient churches. The Trinity had its origin and development by men in the councils of Nicaea (325 CE) and Constantinople (381 CE), not in the Bible.
Here’s my reply:

Last month I posted Who Is God? Trinity Debate: Dr. James White vs Bro. Joe Ventilacion. This was a debate between Christian apologist James White and a defender of the cult Iglesia ni Cristo.
Iglesia ni Cristo denies the deity of Christ. In the comment section of my post an individual name Alfeo Piedad argued against the divinity of Christ. In this post I want address this specific argument:
First , John 4:24 says God is spirit and a spirit does not have a human body….1 Timothy 1:17 , praises God saying ,” …immortal, invisible ,the only God …if God has a physical body he could not be in all places at once. How can God then built a church and purchased it with His blood when the true God is invisible., is a spirit and has no flesh and blood.
John 4:24 states “God is spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”
1 Timothy 1:17 states “Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory forever and ever. Amen.”
Does the fact that Jesus has a human body mean that Jesus was not Divine? I don’t think so let me explain.

Iglesia ni Cristo denies the deity of Christ. In the comment section of my post someone introduced some arguments and verses against the divinity of Christ. In this post I want address one of the commentator’s argument:
God dies not get tired Isa40:28 . Christ got tired ,John 4:6 .
Isaiah 40:28 states “Do you not know? Have you not heard? The Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth Does not become weary or tired. His understanding is inscrutable.”
John 4:6 states “and Jacob’s well was there. So Jesus, being wearied from His journey, was sitting thus by the well. It was about the sixth hour.”
Does the fact that Jesus got tired meant that Jesus was not Divine? I don’t think so let me explain.
