@DrAlGarza Trinitarians have to inject idiosyncratic semantics in a mountain of verses just to get their theory off the ground.

@PracticalTheolo Oh, you mean how we make arguments based on the grammar, syntax, context, and proper hermeneutics? That’s why there’s so many Trinitarian scholars in the world because we actually know how to read the text properly in context.

@DrAlGarza Trinitarians making arguments based on normal rules of grammar at least has a lot of - what's the word? - oh yes, chutzpah. I'll give you that!

@PracticalTheolo Well, ignorance is bliss because if you parse the Greek carefully, you’ll find that it refutes every Unitarian position.

@DrAlGarza The entire passage, which just gets worse and worse for Trinitarians, including its context and the rest of the letter of Philippians, wouldn't fit in the meme. Sorry.

Actually, if you parse it from the Greek, it states clearly that being in the form of God is the same as being God before he put on the form of a slave and set aside his privileges to take the form of a man. That is what the text says, and it is only one of many that refers to Jesus as the God of Israel

It doesn't say that Jesus was God; but was " in the form of God". What is God's form? John 4: 24 says "God is a spirit '. So are all of God's sons. The Angels are God s sons and spirits also. It doesn't say that Jesus equal to God; but that he did not consider har·pag·mosʹ; lit., “a thing to be seized” it is derived from the verb har·paʹzo, which has the basic meaning “to seize; to snatch.” Some have suggested that this term refers to retaining something already possessed. However, the Scriptures never use the Greek term to mean the holding on to something already in one’s possession. Rather, it is often rendered “seize” or “snatch (away)” or by other such expressions. (Mt 11:12; 12:29; 13:19; Joh 6:15; 10:12, 28, 29; Ac 8:39; 23:10; 2Co 12:2, 4; 1Th 4:17; Jude 23; Re 12:5)

For those who ask, "Where does it say, 'Jesus is YHVH'? In my latest peer-reviewed paper, which will be out next year, I examine the Greek, Syriac, and Hebrew NT MSS to show that Jesus is explicitly called YHVH. Read my 21-page paper, and your feedback is important. It will be published in 2027 in the Journal of Christology, Trinitarian Theology and Apologetics by Codexium Press. academia.edu/169632005/Revi…
