Dear 7777: If, sir or madam, you are "one-ness," you don't agree with me at all, not on that doctrine at least, for I am trinitarian through and through. To speak to your question of whether I can find the word "trinity" in Scripture, I, like you, cannot, because the word itself simply isn't there. But you will find the teaching of the triunity of God throughout Holy Writ. The concept of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit is not lacking in Scripture. ...... (1) God the Father, being the first person of the Trinity, orders and disposes all things according to His own purpose and grace (Psalm 145:8,9; 1 Cor. 8:6. .... (2) God the Son is Jesus Christ, the second person of the Trinity, who possesses all the divine excellencies, and in these He is coequal, consubstantial and coeternal with the Father (John 10:30; 14:9). ...... (3) God the Holy Spirit is a divine Person, eternal, underived, possessing all the attributes of personality and deity, including intellect (1 Cor. 2:10-13), emotions (Eph. 4:30), and will (1 Cor. 2:11), eternality (Heb. 9:14), omnipresence (Ps. 139:7-10), omniscience (Is. 40:13,14), omnipotence (Rom. 15:13), and truthfulness (John 16:13). In all the divine attributes He is coequal and consubstantial with the Father and the Son (Matt. 28:19; Acts 5:3,4; 1 Cor. 12:4-6; 2 Cor. 13:14). ...... Thanks, 7777, for your inquiry. I trust my response suffices. The doctrine of the triunity of God is well established in Scripture and in the church. It is, therefore, not a subject open to debate, and hence it will not be debated on this Forum. --Hank | ||||||
