Re: The Triune God in the Old Testament
None of those lines are talking about jesus, when was jesus ever called the mighty one or the mighty god?
zechariah is talking about an angel it even says it in the earlier verses, maybe you would know this if you didn't quote mine it
the trinity makes christianity polythiestic, the celts had tri-gods and christians called them polythiestic

Re: The Triune God in the Old Testament
Plenty of us call Him the Mighty God. Just because you don't doesn't mean that no one has.
if this is true its purely because of the lines being interpreted that way, not because its talking about jesus, i've heard no one call him that.
Reading the verses it is clear that Jehovah of hosts is the sender and the sent one.
umm no it says angel in 2.3, it talks of the angel measuring jeresalam for god, it says man in 2.1 but its an angel in human form, the lord of hosts is an angel of god
The Trinity is not polyttheistic in your belief not in mine.
there are polythiestic religions that have gods that are three but of one substance, this is exactly like the trinity in christianity.
if you consider the trinity to be monothiestic but the other polythiestic then its a double standard.
i don't think the trinity is scriptural or monothiestic in anyway.

Re: The Triune God in the Old Testament
The Trinity is not for man to have a doctrinal formula for its own sake. The Trinity is for man's enjoyment and experience of God.
the trinity is a faulty interpretation of hebrew writtings, and renders christianity polytheistic, unless your definition of monotheistic is different than mine i would say it can't be
how is the trinity helpful if it confuses people?
