  • In this video, I look at the ontological foundations of Christian society with reference to the Church Fathers. Beginning with the distinction between nature (or essence) and person (hypostasis), I look at St Gregory of Nyssa's understanding of universals, and how it steers a course between strict Platonism and Aristotelianism.
    I hope that, having laid some of this groundwork, as we proceed with looking at the history of Christian monarchy, we will have a frame through which to evaluate its successes and failures.

    No trinity exists, the trinity is just a CONVENTIONAL (i.e. false) doctrine issued by two CONVENTIONS of the fourth century. It's directly DEBUNKED by Jesus, who is the directly concerned Witness-Person. Contrary to the doctrine He reiterates dozens of times to be ONLY WITH THE FATHER, NEVER WITH THE FATHER AND THE HOLY SPIRIT! One person too many: due to a misunderstanding of the gospels, a non-existing third divine person has been INVENTED by the bishops of the Conventions.
    Jesus tells you that ONLY THE FATHER IS INSIDE HIM
    But that FATHER IS A SPIRIT (no doubt, see Jn. 4:23,24).
    Thus ONLY ONE SPIRIT WHO IS THE FATHER is inside Jesus.
    Contrary to the trinity doctrine, "Holy Spirit" and "Father (who is a spirit)" are not two SPIRITS inside Jesus! They are just two EQUIVALENT NAMES for the same one Spirit. Simply the Father who dwells in Jesus is either called "Holy Spirit" or "Holy Father" by Him.
    He is the SAME ONE Spirit that before led Jesus into the desert and later also helped Him when speaking.
    In a sermon Jesus talks about the TWO blasphemies against Himself and against the Father (i.e. the Holy Spirit), no third blasphemy exists because no third person exists.

      No trinity exists, see the gospels. Jesus CLEARLY SAID who is God: God is made by the Father and the Son. PERIOD.
      "I and the Father are one" (not 2/3);
      "He who has seen me has seen the Father."
      "I am in the Father and the Father in me."
      "the Father is in me, and I in Him."
      "If you know me, you know my Father also, and from now on you know Him and have seen Him."
      "Yet, I am not ALONE, but I and the Father who sent me are one." ( just Father and Son)
      "those who will BELIEVE in me through their word so that they all may be one, as you, FATHER, are in ME, and I in YOU. THEY also may be one in US..." (believers, Father and Son)
      "The WORDS I say to you, I say not on my own but from the FATHER WHO DWELLS IN ME." (just Son and Father are there)
      " On that day you will know that I am in my Father, you are in me, and I am in you." (Apostles, Father and Son, no one else is there)
      " My Father works now, so I work." (no one else works).
      That is what is DISCLOSED BY THE GOSPELS, NOWHERE is a trinity to be found, it's a mere INVENTION!
      The trinity COMES FROM A BLUNDER: a third Person was ADDED because it was misunderstood that the Holy Spirit is A THIRD PERSON. NOT TRUE.
      The difference between you and your spirit is similar to that existing between God and the Spirit of God (aka Holy Spirit). In other words God and "Spirit of God" RELATES TO THE SAME ALMIGHTY God. Hence no third person exists. This means that the Father who is a spirit (Holy Spirit) dealt with Mary's pregnancy, spoke when Jesus was baptized, led Jesus in the wilderness, also helped Jesus later when talking...God doesn't take personally actions here, He is here only in the form of a spirit ("God is a spirit"). This is why no one has ever known or seen God. "God who is a spirit" and the "Spirit of God" are not TWO distinct Spirits, they are the SAME One.
