You need to repent of your hate before it leads you to commit the sins of previous trinitarians.

I have no hatred to repent of, and your accusation of it is yet another lie that you need to think about the consequences of. If lies are the "fruits of the spirit" that you exhibit, one wonders what spirit you have in you.
Now, instead of dodging the issue by insulting me, explain how John 1:1-2 makes sense if there is no trinity and God's name is Jesus.
ETA: 100 pages, woot-woot!

Are you saying that Jesus is not God?
In the beginning was Jesus, and Jesus was with Jesus, and Jesus was Jesus. Jesus was with Jesus in the beginning. (John 1:1-2 NIV)

And again, you have zero moral high ground to judge or lecture anyone on what is offensive to women when you support them being silent in church, that they must wear skirts, and that they cannot teach you anything because they had the simple misfortune of being born with a vagina instead of a penis.

I do not hate women as you accuse. I only teach that men and women have different roles, which is Biblical.

You said that Jesus is not God's name and in John 1:1-2, you claim God was someone other than Jesus.

I never said that Jesus is not God. Stop deflecting and answer the question. Does John 1:1-2 make any sense to you, as restated in your "anti-trinitarian, God's only name is Jesus", terms?

Where does NuT accuse you of "hating women"? He says that you oppress and diminish them because of their gender, which is not Biblical.

As usual, your lack of reading comprehension and/or inability to answer a simple question results in your attempt to deflect a reasonable inquiry.
We may now assume that you are in agreement, that your Modalism makes a mess out of the Bible, since you are unable to provide a reasonable defence against that argument.

Actually, I am showing that the trinity makes a mess out of John 1:1-2, by making Jesus not the same being as God.
In the beginning was Jesus, and Jesus was with God, and Jesus was God. Jesus was with God in the beginning. (John 1:1-2 NIV)
In the beginning was Jesus, and Jesus was with Jesus, and Jesus was Jesus. Jesus was with Jesus in the beginning. (John 1:1-2 NIV)

No, you aren't. Here is the trinitarian John 1:1-2:
In the beginning was Jesus, and Jesus was with God, and Jesus was God. Jesus was with God in the beginning. (John 1:1-2 NIV)
Here is the mess that Modalism makes of that:
In the beginning was Jesus, and Jesus was with Jesus, and Jesus was Jesus. Jesus was with Jesus in the beginning. (John 1:1-2 NIV)
Two persons, one God? Makes complete sense.
One person, two roles, one God? Makes the text a complete mess.
There is no way that John would have written that sentence in the fashion that he did if he was a Modalist, so you're either left with either assuming that it is a forgery added later, or accepting that John was not a Modalist. And, if a forgery, you have to make the same assumption of Matthew's depiction of Jesus' baptism, as well as pretty much every other author of the New Testament, as they all clearly depict Father and Son as being separate entities who interact with each other.

No I shouldn't because I didn't do any injustice to her. She was attacking Protestants and it was unnecessary.
