    Ronald,

    You can trust a fractured message till kingdom come, but having all the scriptures line up with each other is tantamount to Biblical perfection. You are counting 3 when that is not Bible doctrine. The Holy Ghost is not part of a 3 person trilogy; you can't pour out a "person" Acts 2:17.

    17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

    Many people posting here sit on the fence between Jesus being God or not, or a trinity or not. If the Bible's editors, and caretakers had been more diligent and reliable in preserving the Word, this age old confusion wouldn't exist.

    I don't see any confusion to be had, I believe the bible lays out the Trinity (diety of God) quite plain, also as in 2 Peter it also plainly states, 2 Peter 1:21 "For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost."

    Mark 10:15 "Verily I say unto you, Whosoever shall not receive the kingdom of God as a little child, he shall not enter therein."

    1 John 5:7-8 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one." 8 "And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one."

    John 1:14 "And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth."

    John 14:26 "But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you."

    Brother Deshawn, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

    Acts 2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days, SAITH GOD, I WILL...

    Is GOD a person? Do you know anything that can speak other than a person? Saith God, I will pour out MY SPIRIT ( John 4:24 God is SPIRIT); is not he saying that he will pour out HIMSELF?

    1 Corinthians 2:16 KNOW YE NOT that ye are the temple of God, and that the SPIRIT OF GOD (God is Spirit) dwells in you....

    Philippians 2:5 Let this mind (God's mind) be in you, which also was in Christ Jesus:

    Philippians 2:6 Who, being in the FORM OF GOD, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:

    Psalms 82:6 I (GOD SAITH) have said, ye are gods; and all of you are CHILDREN of the MOST HIGH.

    John 10:34 Jesus answered them, Is it not written in your law, I SAID ye age gods?

    John 10:35 If HE called them gods, unto whom the word of God came (GOD POURED OUT HIMSELF ON YOU), and the scripture cannot be broken.
