 | What is ‘The Holy Trinity’?posted by Everest John Alexander, Group AdministratorWednesday, June 9th 2010 @ 5:24 AM     (1 ratings) |
Excerpt From My Ebook -
Understanding the 3 Levels of Salvation: Spirit, Soul & Body
Book One: The Salvation of the Spirit
The Hebrew word ‘Elohiym’ is the most commonly translated word for God in the Old Testament and is the plural form of the word “Eloah”.
Obviously being plural means that it’s referring to more than one! Yet, it’s still referring to only ONE GOD, not two or three Gods. ONLY ONE GOD!
This being so and we know that the scriptures declare that there is only one God. “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD," Deut. 6:4
Then it’s reasonable to assume that if He’s referred to in the plural but He’s only ONE BEING, then His fundamental structure must be inherently plural!
He is one corporate Entity comprising different persons! Sounds reasonable but do the Holy Scriptures (God’s revelation of Himself) support this? Yes they do!
Can we reference this “composite structure” from the bible? Yes we can!!! Check out the following scriptures:
“In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God” John 1:1.
“There are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, The Word and the Holy Ghost and these three are one” 1st John 5:7! (Bold print and Italics mine)
Do you need more?
Phil. 2:11 declares that the Father is God; in Heb. 1:8 the Son is called God and Acts 5:3, 4 refer to the Holy Ghost as God, yet the scriptures boldly declare that there is only one God (Mk 12:29, 32)
God is one corporate Entity comprised of and eternally existing as three distinct persons!!! The Father, The Word and The Holy Spirit!
The bible refers to this as the Godhead! (Acts 17:29) We say the Holy Trinity.
