Back in the olden days we didn't have the slightest qualms to burn each other on the stake for our differing interpretations of scripture. Hardly a Christian thing to do if you ask me, but here you go: it happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And this starts with holding to a right understanding of the Trinity - One Being, Three Divine Persons, Each Divine Person Fully and Wholly God yet Distinct, Eternally Co-Equal, Eternally Pre-Existing, Even if one cannot really understand how, one can hold this truth by faith. It seems to me that when we get into heated debates, invariably, on or more parties do not hold to the proper and full teaching of the Trinity, because how one sees God influences how they understand many other teachings of Christianity. If the right understanding of the Trinity were indeed the touchstone of opening up all of the forum to posters, rather than just the outer court, I think we would see a great deal less heated arguments.
