The series of events and people who brought about the Trinity doctrine as it appears today is as follows. We find in the New Testament that the early church preached nothing about a trinity of three eternal persons. The Old Testament was based upon the Oneness of the Godhead as clearly revealed in Old Testament writings. The apostles believed in the fulness of Godhead as dwelling in Jesus Christ bodily. |

There are churches and other groups who advocate pacifism by twisting the words of what Yeshua (Jesus) meant when he spoke of “turning the other cheek”. In fact, what Yeshua was referring to was about maintaining control when confronted by your enemies- not giving up for the sake of avoiding a fight. Turning the other cheek is neither biblical nor practical. King David never turned his cheek and he was called the “Beloved”. Shimshon (Samson) was the strongest man in all the land and he used that strength to fight, destroy, and kill while the spirit of the Lord was upon him. Avram (Abram) who was considered a friend of God went to war with enemy kings to take back Lot and his property who had been captured. |

The “Seven Principles” are Umoja (Unity), Kuji-chagulia (Self-determination), Ujima (Collective Work and Responsibility), Ujamaa (Cooperative Economics), Nia (Purpose), Kuumba (Creativity), and Imani (Faith). |

Rabbi Isaac Levy has taught that in the Hebrew culture, names are important. Names carry meaning and convey the character of a person. Particularly in Hebrew, the names provide a link to the Creator. The importance of names and their meanings came to the Hebrews from the God of Israel. From the very beginning in Genesis to the very end of the bible in Revelations, names are integral to the people of God and to God Himself. |

I thought that it would be profitable to share the origins of the word "Christ" with everyone. To begin, we need to understand that definitions and translations change over time as languages evolve. Today, the Greek word "Khristos" or "Christos" does indeed mean "anointed one". This corresponds to what the word "Christ" means. But the word "Christ" did not come from the Greek "Khristos". It actually came from the Greek word "krissos". Allow me to explain... |
