    Understanding the Trinity.

    Christ is the only form of God that become incarnate, meaning God gave to Him a body. Hebrews 10 5 Therefore, when He came into the world, He said: “Sacrifice and offering You did not desire, But a body You have prepared for Me. 6 In burnt offerings and sacrifices for sin You had no pleasure. 7...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    God made man in His image, according to His likeness. Now think about it this way, it is not all that abstract. Man is spirit, soul, and body. 3 parts to make the whole individual man, who is also all of one being. God is Christ (the incarnation of the body), Father (the soul or mind of the LORD...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    In Acts 8, there is something of interest related to being baptized. 14 Now when the apostles who were at Jerusalem heard that Samaria had received the word of God, they sent Peter and John to them, 15 who, when they had come down, prayed for them that they might receive the Holy Spirit. 16 For...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    Another thing of interest is the Father has a will, and the Son has a will. They are distinct persons yet there is only one God, and they are distinct persons, each with their own distinct wills. John 21:22 Jesus said to him, “If I will that he remain till I come, what is that to you? You...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    And I believe in the Holy Ghost, the Lord and Giver of life, who proceeds from the Father and the Son; who with the Father and the Son together is worshipped and glorified; who spoke by the Prophets. This part of the Nicene creed explained The Holy Spirit in the Apostles’ Creed and the Nicene...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    The Nicene Creed defines the Trinity. I believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Maker of heaven and earth, and of all things visible and invisible. And in one Lord Jesus Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of the Father before all worlds, God of God, Light of Light, very God of very...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    yes, but why does Christ signify 3 separate persons when believers are baptized? Matthew 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, For me that proves the Trinity, which is 3 persons but all of one...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    So for you, there is no Father then, just Christ and the Holy Spirit of God? All I see is you keep proving the Trinity. Matthew 10:33 But whoever denies Me before men, him I will also deny before My Father who is in heaven. Subtract the Father from the trinity and what do you call that?

    Understanding the Trinity.

    And also this, who raised Christ from the dead? God raised Christ from the dead. Acts 4:10 let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    So you acknowledge Christ as the one true God then. Which logically then you deny God as the Father separate from the Son. God and Christ are both coequal and equally mentioned in scripture. Then there is this in 1 Corinthians 15, speaking of Christ and the Father being distinctly separate...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    And the Jews even recognized when Christ made Himself equal with God, it made them very angry to hear that, raving mad so they wanted to kill Christ for what he had said made Him equal with God. The Son gives Life to whom He wills, that makes Christ divine and God. John 5 16 For this reason the...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    God with us in the form of Jesus Christ who is in the form of God. they are all of one, yet they are distinct persons. Philippians 2:5-7 New King James Version 5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, 6 who, being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal...

    4 Years Are Left Until the Return of Yeshua

    In Revelation 14, One of God's angels tells us all who are marked will go to hellfire, suffer the wrath of God. I dont know if this punishment is worse than regular old hell, but it sure seems particularly gruesome. 9 And another angel, a third, followed them, saying with a great voice, If any...

    Appearances of Christ in the OT Joshua 5 The Commander of the Army of the Lord 13 And it came to pass, when Joshua was by Jericho, that he lifted his eyes and looked, and behold, a Man stood opposite him with His sword drawn in His hand. And Joshua went to Him and said to Him, “Are You for us...

    Understanding the Trinity.

    Again The Trinity, Those who deny the Trinity, deny Christ as God's divine Son through whom God made all things. Matthew 28:19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 1 John 2:22 Who is a liar but he...

    The Maze

    I get the feeling you think sin kills the sheep of Christ and they will go to hell for it. Romans 4 New King James Version 1 What then shall we say that Abraham our father has found according to the flesh? 2 For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not...
