Scriptural Answers — False Doctrine Refuted
Is Jesus a created being rather than divine?
John 1 distinguishes the Word from the things made: the Word was with God, was God, and all made things came through Him. Colossians 1:16–17 likewise places all creation under His creative work and describes Him as before all things.
Does Scripture restrict the Christian inheritance to only 144,000 people?
Revelation’s numbered company must be read within its apocalyptic vision and tribal description. The same chapter presents a multitude no man could number before the throne. A symbolic vision does not by itself establish two different gospel invitations.
Is the Holy Spirit merely an impersonal force?
Acts 13:2 records the Holy Ghost speaking and directing the separation of Barnabas and Saul. First Corinthians 12:11 describes the Spirit distributing gifts as He wills. These are personal actions, not merely measurements of energy.
Are the Father, Son and Holy Spirit simply one person using three names?
At Jesus’s baptism the Son is baptized, the Spirit descends, and the Father speaks from heaven. John 17 records the Son addressing the Father and speaking of glory with Him before the world was. These statements cannot be reduced to one person speaking only to Himself.
Is the promised resurrection merely a metaphor with no resurrection of the dead?
First Corinthians 15 connects the gospel to Christ’s death, burial and resurrection, with witnesses to His risen life. Paul then argues that denying resurrection undermines the gospel and the Christian hope.
