You know, I have ran into a lot of Unitarians that make that same claim to most of the verses we would both use to pove the Deity of Christ. I'm not sure it's a good argument. Something has to be "The Word of God" and at somepoint we also have to have a right translation.

Then you must also accept 1 John 5:7 in the KJV. Are you willing to do that?
1Jo 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
How many are bearing record in heaven? The list is in 7b.

That is NOT going to happen. Even the quips about someone else here being not christ like is seen as a swipe. So I am saying to everyone, let's not go there with the finger pointing.

How many whats are bearing record in heaven? I don't have a problem with accepting this verse, even though most scholars view it as an interpolation

If experience is an indicator, Believer, it's best to call it a night.

Let me first say, I'm not promoting anything here. I'm only trying to show what the verse literally states. My Bible doesn't have this verse. I read from the NASB.
Who are the three in heaven in this verse?
For there are THREE bearing record, as in witnesses...the Father, the Word (Son) and the Holy Spirit, and these THREE are one.
hen (neut.); a prim. num.; one: - agreement (1), alike *(1), alone (3), common (1),
This is the same use of the word hen as we see in John 10:30. Are you sure you don't have a problem with this verse?
RWP: The spurious addition is: en tōi ouranōi ho patēr, ho logos kai to hagion pneuma kai houtoi hoi treis hen eisin kai treis eisin hoi marturountes en tēi gēi (in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
This clearly teaches the Trinity, BUT, I don't use it because it is in dispute.
RWP: Some Latin scribe caught up Cyprian’s exegesis and wrote it on the margin of his text, and so it got into the Vulgate and finally into the Textus Receptus by the stupidity of Erasmus.

Prax, I wasn't arguing, I was serious, if I did or said something that came across as offensive I want it pointed out.

We reject any teaching about the Trinity here, Believer.
Please refer to the sticky in this section where is is NOT acceptable.

What? The first thing I said was that I wasn't promoting. The third thing I said was that my Bible doesn't have this verse in it, and I quoted A.T. Robertson who said "Some Latin scribe caught up Cyprian’s exegesis and wrote it on the margin of his text, and so it got into the Vulgate and finally into the Textus Receptus by the stupidity of Erasmus".
I was disputing the fact that the verse was even in the original manuscript. But, taking the verse Literally is clearly stating there is a Tri-unity of God. I wasn’t promoting, but showing the for what it says.
