bottom line: the reason no one can explain why this ghost is not in the ONE is because IT IS NOT IN THE ONE.
God is a family, the Father and the SON and they are bring sons into their family.

with that have a good night
 
My purpose on this blog is to cause folks to prove what "they have been told" is the truth. prove scripture by scripture. here a little there a little. When I study a doctrine or any subject I write a paper using every scripture I can find, some paper are 50 or more pages long -- I prove all things as Paul instructed us to do, no mans word works for me.


Except you know when the entirety of the scriptures starting from the very first three verses of the Torah affirms the trinity doctrine, then it becomes the classic cult tactic of twisting the words and literally alledging the entire Bible is wrong and implying that Jesus and Stephen were just lying when they say that Jesus sits at the right hand of the Father.

So the bottom line is you reject God, you resist the Holy Spirit, and he has no part in you, which means you will certainly go to the hellfire for all of eternity, praise Jesus.

You have received different scriptures, here a little there a little. And all you seem to be doing is dismissing what people say and their references. You wont discuss it unless you get the answer you want? That's weird.
 
Sorry I find nothing confirming this “ghost’ exist. [/QUOTE]

It's not a ghost, it's the Holy Spirit. The archaic language of the King James leads a lot of people into error or confusion.

God is Spirit, so Jesus said. Jesus claimed to be God many times. He was accused of blasphemy by Jews who sought to kill him. Jesus said that we should be baptised in the name of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. I do not understand how you can be so ignorant of these truths.
 
if that means I must accept the party line's' of the 40,000 flavors of confusion --- "lines" as in a multitude, like 40,000
I hate confusion not a chance in a trillion trillion.
I want to be in the "little flock" not the flock with billions.
I know Jesus Christ and My Father and they Know me.
I am thinking that there is a high probability that - perhaps, without even realizing it - you have put yourself in a place of rare belief and stance so as to convince and assure yourself that you are in fact part of the chosen few.

How many people could this be referring to?

Revelation 7:

9 After this I beheld, and, lo, a great multitude, which no man could number, of all nations, and kindreds, and people, and tongues, stood before the throne, and before the Lamb, clothed with white robes, and palms in their hands; 10 And cried with a loud voice, saying, Salvation to our God which sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb.

Does this represent a "little flock"...?

Could there possibly be billions?

There are no clear statements that have been submitted, all have problems and no one yet addressed the question, of the ONE
Being one doesn't require all having the same role or acclaim at a particular focus. The Bible is basically about Christ, but He is largely cryptic in the first testament.

Is a wife not one with her husband when she defers to him? Likewise, the Spirit remains one with the Father and Son even in His deference.
 
@memberofthebride - somehow, I am thinking that your 60 years of bible study has not yielded a proper and sufficient understanding of scripture. I am also thinking that you have been listening to more of the ideas of men than you realize.

Sorry that was added in the 1600 century, it is not in any earlier bibles

I do not have it on hand but if I remember correctly the doctrine of a trinity was not mention until around 200 AD
How convenient for you to say; however, I have not yet seen you actually prove it to be true with scripture...

The analogy I use to help me understand the triune God, which is a mystery, not saying this analogy explains the mystery, only helps me to understand how something can be both 3 and 1 and also explain your question.

Think of the internet. You can get a message from the server that is at the heart of the internet, or you can get a message from my computer. These are two very distinct things. I do not own the server farm that this forum is operating on, and they don't own the computer I am using to type this message. You can get a message from me, you can also get a message from this forum that originates on the server farm. As far as you are concerned, the two are one. However, you would not receive either message if it were not for the electricity traveling between the two and to your computer.

Your computer is like your spirit, it is designed to hear from God and from the Lord Jesus Christ. Your spirit can connect to "the Spirit" just like you have to plug your computer in for it to work.

So then the internet is one, but it is composed of a server farm (God the Father in this analogy), the wires connecting your computer to the server farm (Christ the Son in this analogy) and the electricity running down the line from the server farm to your computer (the Holy Spirit in this analogy). These are three distinct things, but they are one. Once you hook up to the Triune God you realize you were created for this purpose just as a computer is created for the purpose of accessing the internet. Yes it can work apart from the internet, just as we can operate apart from God. But the applications of the computer increase exponentially once we connect it to the internet just as they increase exponentially once someone connects to the triune God.

God created all

Jesus is His son and we must believe in Him for salvation John 3:16

The Spirit was sent to us as a gift and is in us now and He will teach us all things. John 14:26

You're really digging for something else when the answer is in front of us. The Father, Son and Spirit are one and with us.
If The Spirit wasn't mentioned in the verses you've selected, it doesn't mean He's not mentioned anywhere. We have verses of the Spirit, Jesus and God. They aren't always mentioned together in all the verses, nor do they need to be. From reading the Bible, we know who they are and what they do.
