No, just process of elimination. In the case of Krishna, it's proven that blue people don't exist. In fact, Hindu's actually believe the odd brightly colored depictions of their deities is not symbolic, but their actual appearance. Krishna literally means black.
Not to burst any bubbles here but...
In the Marine Corps we were taught that ALL Marines were green.
Thats right, shades of green.
Thus there was no Black man, White man, Red man, Yellow man in the Corps.
We believed it and it was true.
Under fire, the cares of color do not matter.
So, if Hindus believe their Gods are blue...
Then we are ALL blue.

Buddha and Kristna came before Christ did my friend... with the same message...
Not before God the Father and certainly didn't come in the same power as Christ.
That is debateable...
They all had the same message... from the same source...
obviously not before the Father...

Obviously Buddha and Krishna were not before the Father and since the Word was with God from the beginning then also B&K not before Christ. Too, their messages aren't the same.
Buddha and Krishna can't, couldn't, and never did offer redemption from the wages of sin.

Buddhists don't believe in sin... Just cause and effect...
According to your book you can't do anything without some sort of sin...
And belief in Christ doesn't save you from said Sin if you don't show that belief in some way....
One might say "i believe in Jesus" but if theres no action to represent that belief... it is dead...
Buddha, and Krishna gave the same message as Jesus did....Love has the same effect no matter who said it...

A lot of people aren't convinced of sin but then again don't they believe in right and wrong? You can't have right and wrong without sin and righteousness.
The product of our faith is good works and a lot of the time the good things we do, we do in secret not to have the praise of men but because our God sees what we do in secret and will reward us openly when he returns so just because you don't see what we do doesn't mean our faith isn't producing good works.

So you believe Right and wrong come from a book?
You openly condem those that follow the words of Buddha or Krishna without noticing the same message as Jesus taught... Love and respect for your fellow man.

you condem other faiths that arn't Christian only because you don't understand what they teach... IF you did understand, you wouldn't condem people for following them...
They are the same... the only differences are the belief systems that are associated with organized religion...

Oh the hypocrisy!
I have not disallowed no one's speech only identified cracks in foundations. Truly, respect to whom respect is due. If your philosophical foundation is garbage then take it to the dumps. Not everything and every belief is worthy of respect and honor.

Before Abraham was, I am.
Do you know what this even means?
Ask Abraham who he is and what do you suppose his reply would be? I am Abraham!
THAT is why the statement is true. I am comes before everyone!
In the beginning was the WORD.
Do you even understand?
What is at the beginning of that sentence? A WORD!
and the word was with God... Where do ALL of our words, even your own come from? Do you know? That unknown void inside you from which comes all your thoughts and feelings!
And the word was God.. Are you figuring this out yet? Our whole reality is nothing but words. Take them away and you still exist, but in an indescribable state. How can you describe anything without words?
When you argue against another description of this reality, all you are doing is blinding yourself from a view you would not otherwise have.
You are hurting yourself by denying yourself a view from outside yourself. You are cutting yourself OFF.
Who are you? Do you even know?
Don't tell me lies by giving me a name which was told to you. Who were you before that name? Who are you without a name? Define yourself, for that is all you can ever truthfully know.

I can call people what ever color I chose.
Would you like your perspective forced away for someone else's?

In context Jesus was telling the pharisees that before Abraham was, He was and is from the beginning and in collusion, from the beginning the Word was and is. (capital "W" denotes a proper noun + all the other references to Jesus being the Word of God made Flesh)

Most know of the Babylon Trinity story where Nimrod Married his Mother, Semiramis, and liked to play god over building a tower to get close to heaven in the skies. Nimrod became so corrupt at playing god that he was killed and cut into little pieces and scattered, and was represented as going to the Sun in death. His wife/mother could find all his pieces but not the procreating bit, so she makes up a story that the Sun (Nimrod) fertilized her (Semiramis) to produce the Son (Tammus). This is the strange Pagan Sun worship Trinity theme of Father becomes the Son via the Holy Spirit of the Sun. This is the heart of Sun Worship belief, and a belief for gods that Egypt Cloned. Moses tossed out the Egyptian Concepts of these pagan gods in favor of one based on god being Nature's Ways.
The problems with Christian Double Talk begins as they plug Jesus into much of these old pagan Sun Worship belief stories. Jesus has a story of Virgin Birth, but it was really more one for an immaculate conception that was planned birth to have a savior come address a better way for god and heaven. Mary is cast into a role, like Semiramis, where she is fertilized by god. The real story is that Mary was never taught the Pagan Sun god worship was valid and thus was pure and pious of religious belief and she was chosen for Jesus Mother by the Essene's methods of piety, and in this way translated as Virgin. Mary and Joseph conceived Jesus in the normal fashion, but they had great plans for their son to became a Messiah to change how the issues of god were presented to the world. It was a great plan and one frought with resistance and much ignorance in the world.
Many of the concepts for god existed in the minds of men as thoughts and ideas, or the spiritual world of beliefs. Jesus teaching for "The Way" was about moving the concepts of the Sprit of god in the mind into that of building heaven on Earth by the clear explanations of how the spiritual concepts of the mind came into understanding. This meant that Jesus Way would be to teach the orgins of god from the natural order of the planet and in doing this greater understanding make heaven upon the Earth where god become reality as nature.
Jesus would show god as a father of all humans and one that serves the childrens needs and is loving toward them, if one understands the ways of nature. Nature provided great medicines like Myrrh, provided great nutrition via bread and wine, and they gave thanks to nature, as god, for these things. There was a logical way to transition god of the Spirit world of the mind into god and heaven on Earth, and it was based in explaining the simple truths and moving from heaven in the skies or spirit world into reality and Earth.
The Christian's Double-Talk attempts to tell that Mary was like Semiramis and got pregnant in thin air, when the real story was one of planned pregnancy from two pious parents with designs for the child to become a Messiah. There is a non-pagan version of Trinity for Jesus with the Concepts of Father (god), the Son (Jesus--born of the truth of god), and the Holy Spirit (the goals for taking Spiritual into reality on Earth). The real Jesus associated Trinity explains why the Babylon Trinity is false and pagan, and explains the roots of god lie in the explanations of nature's ways.
The Double-Talk of Christians make Jesus into Satan when they make his story like Babylon's Trinity. Then like Jesus, The Man, as a Messiah to make Heaven on Earth built on pious truth being told of god's origin in the ways of the Natural Order. It is the Christians that paint Jesus in the vogue of Babylon's Trinity that are dead in Christ. The Christians technically worship Jesus as Satan when they do this in their teaching. Only a very few understand that Jesus Trinity isn't that from Babylon. Those few that see the Jesus theme of "The Way" was about showing the world the ways of Nature to provide medicines like Myrrh and nourishments like bread and wine with Boron nutrition. They gave thanks for Nature's ways as god and the Lord's Prayer with the special word for super foods. Even the Lord's Prayer and the Last Supper theme was of this ultimate purpose of thanks to nature for these foods and the ultimate wish for Heaven on Earth via teaching these simple truths.

We do not fear the godless or their idols. The fear you infer in the tone of our writings is real concern in urgency for those who revel in the wickedness of worshiping gods they have made to serve themselves and filthy desires. To all those truly believing God is One, who trust Jesus and the Word of His Holy Spirit, we know there is great danger and we fear for you, not fear you.

This whole thread is strange. I only got on it to probe into the OPs beliefs. He doesn't care for Judaic Yahwistic monotheism, nor about Jesus ( in the Christian sense of "risen savior" ), yet he wants to portray Trinitarians as if they follow some Nimrodian Babylonian religion. The whole thread seems quite pointless to me.
. . . and the word was with God...
