Many Christians today behave much like the Pharisees of Jesus' day. They rather hold onto the traditions of men than accept the plain truth that is before them. No matter how many great miracles Jesus performed and no matter how many awesome teachings he gave, a certain number of the Jews continued to reject him.
Today I tell you that Christianity as you know it is false. There are a great number of errors being taught and accepted even without biblical support. One of the biggest corruptions is that of the Trinity. No one in the Bible ever speaks of the trinity, no one teaches a trinity, and certainly none of the Jews believed in a Trinity. Yet this doctrine is taught in almost every Christian religion and denomination today.
I can give evidence after evidence, Scripture after Scripture, but people will not hear and will not see what is plainly before them. They, like the Pharisees, would rather hang onto their traditions than admit that they are wrong.
This is not just an issue with pride or being stubborn. Religion is a deep and emotional topic. For Trinitarians to even question the Trinity is like questioning their whole faith. It is questioning the very foundation of what they believe. This is a scary place to be; To think that for so many years you were wrong, or even worse, teaching others in error. To think that your teachers, your pastor, your parents were wrong is enough to put a knot in your stomach. But we owe it to ourselves, our loved ones, and more importantly to God to get this right. We all want to worship in truth.
I understand the fear and fear is a powerful thing. But it is not wrong to question these things. In fact the Bible encourages you to test all things. Take a new look at the Scriptures, with a new mind and ask God for guidance and wisdom. When I searched for truth I found it. The answers are there.
The important thing to realize is that you don't have to abandon your faith, you just have to grow in it. Jesus is our redeemer and we can trust our lives with him. But we must see the distinction between Jesus and God or else we worship in error. God is one and has no equal. Jesus glorified God, his Father, in all things and likewise we should too.
I trust in one God, who is the Father. I trust in one Lord, my Savior, Jesus Christ. We are joined by the Holy Spirit.
I am a Christian.
