Just to clarify, Luther didnt question the Trinity, so most Lutherans have the same understanding of the Trinity as the RCC, correct? It seems to be more & more common to reject the teaching of the Trinity these days. Its difficult to get official denominational teaching conveyed when people are so free to interprete willy-nilly.

Have you noticed the trend moving away from the Trinity? I really cant believe people try & conceptualize the makeup of God & then wonder why they dont understand.

Hi....there was absolutely no problem between Rome and Luther on the Trinity. I don't have "hard stats"..but many evangelical/pentecostal type churches basically turn into "Jesus only churches"...the language of the Trinity is rare...what their OFFICAL teaching is I don't know...but ASSUME that they believe in the Trinity....but there is some truth to your observation....

So can you direct your prayers to Jesus or the father only?

Hi...yes you can direct your prayers to Jesus (or the Holy Spirit) as well as the Father...Pastor Lassman

This is great! I do want to add that I do think that he might have used his power as God fully as he forgave and healed people on earth. His healing/forgiveness (as the case was) completely permeated the body, soul, and spirit of the person. Jesus often times completely forgave them and healed them as he saw fit for the sake of Good.

Hi.I meant He did not always or fully use his power as God FOR HIMSELF. If he had he would not have had to eat and drink, rest and sleep, or suffer and die. Pastor Lassman

The difference is Jesus Christ fills believers with the Holy Ghost and gives gifts to those men which they know without a doubt

[wilby1414]

Jesus came to reveal the Father and to be the Lamb of God, sacrificed for the sin of the world. He pleased his father in everything he did. He spoke what the Father told him to speak. He was the word made flesh. He also gave all these devine powers to his desciples and to the true believers/posessors of everlasting life.

Jesus never yielded to temptation,even though Satan tried his best,however Satan fooled Muhammad many times,as told of in Koran and Hadiths,Muhammed said it was alright to worship the Moon gods 3 daughters,these are known as the Satanic verses,Then he blamed Satan.Then there is the case of Muhammad believing he was having sex with women when he was not,his wife Aisha tells that this also came from Satan.How can anyone trust the Koran,when Allah says that He will protect his prophets from Satan?
