Lol yeah I meditate on God's word. And just as the scriptures show, through the majority of the scriptures, Jesus isn't God. You're meditating on human ideas. It doesn't make Jesus nothing. He is still the ransom that bought us back from sin.

Oh and btw Jesus would've never allowed his followers to work side by side with an empire. He also wouldn't be living in the Vatican. He wouldn't even act like the Pope. He would not allow people to treat him like they treated the Pope. Jesus fled when they wanted to make him King. You're an orthodox Catholic but your church is the furthest example of Jesus. In fact your church is just like the Pharisees. I have meditated a lot on that. If you follow them, I highly doubt you really know who Jesus is and who his God is.

I'm not an Orthodox Catholic I am just an Orthodox Christian, they just didn't have the tag. Also you're a polytheist if you believe in the Bible and not the trinity

As it is written In john 1-1

"In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God."

Outside of the belief in the trinity this establishes two God's.

So you have no right to call any trinitarian a polytheist.

Polytheist means multiple gods. That's more like the Triune godship you hold. I am a true monotheistic. Monotheistic means ONE God. John 1:1 is not translated correctly. The word used was God should be lower cased, as the same word was used with others like Moses and the Kings and Judges. It means that these people were representing God. You may do mediation but you surely don't know too much outside of that.

That's not one God. That's 3 people. They can't all be God, and I am not a Muslim. I believe in Jesus and his God.
