Wikipedia:
Unitarians adhere to strict monotheism, and maintain that Jesus was a great
man and a prophet of God, but not God himself.[2]
For most of its history, Unitarianism has been known for the rejection of
several orthodox Protestant doctrines besides the Trinity,[3] including the
soteriological doctrines of original sin and predestination,[4][5] and, in
more recent times, biblical inerrancy. |

15. To make him a king.
When those men intended to give to Christ the title and honor of king,
there was some ground for what they did. But they erred egregiously in
taking upon themselves the liberty of making a king; for Scripture ascribes
this as peculiar to God alone, as it is said,
I have appointed my king on my holy hill of Zion,
(Psalm 2:6.)

THE INSPIRED VERSION OF THE BIBLE BY JOSEPH SMITH, JUNIOR
I recognize that the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints does not

then hasn't God failed? Hasn't he failed to give us enough evidence?"
History demonstrates that no matter how clear the evidence or how much of it

听一个朋友说，美国大陆第一批从英国来的是清教徒乘坐五月花。他们当初就是为了要

清教徒(其實就是加爾文派）到了美洲就轉身迫害其他教派。
我記得他們在麻州制定的法律就是不信他們教派的就吊死。
建國是七八代之後的事情了。

发帖数: 1016 | 50 这与男女歧视似乎很难挂钩， 男人的逻辑思维和空间想象要强些， 女人的第六感要强
些， 所以基督天主教会里， 女人不可以做teaching, 但可以做prophet. 其实prophet
的地位比teaching要高。
佛教也规定， 尼姑不能给人剃度和讲经。但女人可以学神通开天眼。 |
