GINOLJC, to all
first thanks for the reply, second, if your definition of the Godhead is this, what you posted in #4, you said this,
When Jesus came into the world, He was given the name Jesus (YHWH our salvation).
note you say Jesus is YHWH, our saviour. if he's YHWH how do you make your doctrine the true Trinity? here, you have JESUS who is YHWH and the the one who is really the Father, the Holy Spirit, as the same one person. because you said this,
Notice here that the Lord is God. And also, we have the following statement in Matthew 11:25:
At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them to babes.
Again, scripture teaches that there is one Lord...
ok, if the Father is Lord, and JESUS is YHWH who is the Father, the Spirit, per John 4:24a, then the Lord is one person. and you claim that the Holy Spirit is another separate person, that's only two, no trinity. listen to what you said,
Now, the Holy Ghost.
There is
one Spirit:
Ephesians 4:4,
There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
And He is the Father:
STOP, he, the Holy GHOST is FATHER? (which is right), meaning by your definition that he's the Father also who is JESUS, and that means it's only one "Father". then you compound it with this,
The human Jesus released His Spirit back to the Father (that One who inhabiteth eternity):
released his Spirit back to the "FATHER?". now you're saying that the Spirit and the Father is not the same person in which you establish he is in the first place. THAT'S CONFUSION.
he is the Father, and now he's not the Father, but again he is. NO, that's confusion, that's not even the trinity, nor Oneness.
if you will, may I suggest this to you. there is ONE Lord, the Father, (the Holy Spirit), but he's "ANOTHER" of himself in shared flesh. as Spirit, he, the Father, alway "
Which is",
was, and Which is to come", without flesh, per Genesis 1:1 and comfirmed in Isaiah 9:6
as son, (the Holy Spirit), in flesh, "THE ANOTHER" of himself, he's the ONE Lord who always "Which is, "
Which was", "which is to Come, in the likeness of men, Per John 1:1 comfirmed in Isaiah 9:6
this ONE Lord who rose from the dead, the Holy Spirit, who is the title Holder of "Son" and "Father" for it was he, the "Lord" JESUS who raised himself from the DEAD, see, Acts 2:24, which was made known in (John 2:10), yes, the God who raised up that body was JESUS, the Father. who always, "Which is, "Which was", "
which is to Come". Per Revelation 1:1 comfirmed in Isaiah 9:6.
there you have it, the ONE "Lord", "
Which is, "
Which was", and "
which is to Come"
Listen carefully, "Which is, "Which was", and "which is to Come", is the revelation of Jesus the christ.
Revelation 1:4 "John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace,
from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne;
"
HIM" here is ONE PERSON.
Now let's put it all together
Exodus 3:14 "And God said unto Moses,
I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
Revelation 1:4 reveals that JESUS is YHWH
I AM =
Which is, Spirit, Genesis 1:1, "is" Spirit, no flesh, no bones, and no blood.
THAT = "
Which WAS", John 1:1 "was" a man, with flesh, with bone, and with blood.
I AM = "
Which is to Come", Revelation 1:1 "is" spirit, with flesh, with bome, but no BLOOD. the new CREATION, the REVELATION of Jesus Christ as God almighty as a man, per Luke 24:39 "Behold my hands and my feet, that it is I myself: handle me, and see;
for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see me have".
conclusion, the one Lord is the one PERSON, who is the one God.
I AM THAT I AM is the "
which is/FATHER, and
which was/SON, and
which is to come/Holy Spirit.
these are the THREE dispensatation of God . scripture,
1 Corinthians 12:4 "Now there are diversities of gifts, but
the same Spirit.
1 Corinthians 12:5 "And there are differences of administrations, but
the same Lord.
1 Corinthians 12:6 "And there are diversities of operations, but it is
the same God which worketh all in all.
notice verse 6, "the same God", God is a Spirit, per John 4:24a so it would read, "the same Spirit". ....
Spirit = "I AM", "Which is",
Lord = "THAT", "Which was"
spirit/God = "I AM, "Which is to come".
I AM THAT IA AM, which is, which was, which is to come. GOD, the Holy Spirit.
ps,
this is where the unitarians try to say, JESUS is the "EVERLASTING FATHER"
to come. well they are a dollar short and a day late, because he always is, was, and is to come, the Father/Holy Spirit.
are not the scriptures beautiful, God reveals himself in, CREATION/Father, without a body. and with a body of flesh he's the SAVIOUR/Son. now in a body that is glorified with the Spirit, the COMFORTER/Holy Spirit. and he did it al lby "diversifying" himself in flesh, better known as the "OFFSPRING"... (smile).
what a mighty God we serve.
Justby faith I suggest you re-read this post for clarity. if you have any questions, just ask.
