should we take the bible literally?  i'm one of those who do while some dont.  one simple example, when god says "my son jesus", i take it literally as that while some tend to assume that's gonna mean jesus is god.

And thus, you believe in a God that you choose to make in your image. Not in His. The bible is taken by almost every Christians as the divine words of God. Either you choose to believe 100% of it or 0%. There is no between.

nonetheless when god says divinely that jesus is his son, we gotta believe him instead of assuming that god is in form of his son jesus.

what's so secretive about the verses below?  nonetheless i'm gonna take them as an acknowledgement that jesus is no god while trinity and twoness gonna say they implied jesus is god.  if one dont take the verses literally, they gonna imply god exalted god.  tough .  

In Philippians 2:9-11 Paul wrote of Jesus, "Therefore God (GOD) exalted him (GOD) to the highest place and gave him (GOD) the name that is above every name, that at the name of Jesus (GOD) every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord (GOD), to the glory of God the Father (GOD)."

I know about the tri, duo, uni beliefs. I have never doubted that. It's very obvious even in this forum. Like you as unitarian, Truth8 who believe two out of three as God, and I myself believe in all three. Peace comes from knowing the truth.

A wise choice of words, but not only to study them but understand them and put them into practice.
