Return to "The Shepherd's Chapel and Dr. Arnold Murray" Main Page
The following is an email from someone who has read my Shepherd's Chapel page (they claim to have read it, some have, some haven't, you judge) followed by my original responses and sometimes followed by additional commentary. All edits are duly marked (except spelling).

XXXXXXInformation withheldXXXXXXXX I'm a Greek Christian Orthodox my religion teaches us about the father son and holy spirit. Do you have a problem with this? I believe in reading the Bible myself and making my own decisions. I don't believe in a local flood. Mr. Murray opened my eyes to a few things liked food laws I don't eat pork anymore and his Ishtar explanation about Easter I researched and believe it to be true. In the end it all is a matter of faith and how you live your life and treat others. Jesus was God in the flesh I believe we are to try to be like him. Even though we all fall short. God Bless

XXXXXX, I don't have any problem with the father, the son, and the holy spirit. And if the doctrine of the Trinity was as simple as that, I wouldn't have a problem with it either. But the doctrine of the Trinity doctrine goes beyond what the scriptures say about the father, son, and holy spirit; and even contradicts some of the things the bible says about the father, son, and holy spirit. So that is why I do not accept some of what the Trinity Doctrine says about the father, son, and holy spirit, and neither do I accept some of the things Dr. Murray says about the father, son, and holy spirit.I discussed this extensively on my webpage http://oraclesofgod.org/emails/email014.htmBeing convicted in what we are doing is no measure of right. Many of the men who crucified Christ were convinced that they were doing the right thing. So where the men who flew planes into the world trade center.Sincerely, Paul
I address the "Ishthar" issue in a later exchange.
