Hello fellow Believers,
I would like to address the oft brought up subject of the trinity of God.
First we should consider that the word God is a generic word, not in the original
hebrew bible, but rather added later in the english bibles.
This has caused some consternation in modern Christianity.
But made simple the word God should be thought of as three personalities.
YHVH - Jesus - Holy Spirit
Now we can say God and mean Jesus or The Holy Spirit,
such as God within us. And there is no rule that we should only say God and
mean YHVH or any particular of the triune.
Sometimes people say -
"Who then was Jesus praying to when he prayed?" Simple, he was praying to
YHVH.
Its really as simple as that, we can get into the technicalities of
definition from hebrew to english and proper names. But for the sake of simplicity
thats it.
I will add some biblical references to support this, as should anyone if they
desire to make biblical comments that people may disagree with. So you can see I'm
not making "Wild assertions."
John 14:9 - "Jesus saith unto him, have I been so long time with you, and
yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father;
and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father?"
2 Cor. 4:4 - "In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them
which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the
image of God, should shine unto them."
Col. 1:15 - "Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:"
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
1 John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word,
and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
There my friends.
