1 | Holy Spirit and the nature of God? | Heb 1:2 | Hiram Abiff | 7963 | ||
Can the Holy Spirit reside in a person who denies the true nature of God? As a new Christian I am very concerned about the makeup of the Godhead. I am not asking for an explanation of different views, I have read the posts on this and other boards and discussed the issue with several lay Christians and Pastors and feel I understand the points of each (oneness and triune). I believe the triune orthodoxy has more Biblical evidence, but I need to pray for guidance. |

2 | Holy Spirit and the nature of God? | Heb 1:2 | Ray | 7964 | ||
Hi Hiram Abiff, How do you answer my question on Heb 2:6? What do you believe concerning the Deity of Christ? God has spoken to us in His Son. Heb 1:2 | ||||||
3 | Holy Spirit and the nature of God? | Heb 1:2 | Hiram Abiff | 7990 | ||
Hi Ray, I have not seen your question on Heb 2:6.I will look for it and answer if I can. I believe Christ was God / man while on earth and I believe He is in heaven now. My confusion lies in whether He is the full Godhead or an equal member of a triune Godhead. But to restate my question. If I believe in the wrong concept of God's nature (meaning the make-up of the Godhead) can I really have salvation? Many atheist and other non-believers believe in a historical Jesus, but deny His nature as God (or part of God) and therefore cannot receive salvation until they accept the nature of Jesus. John 3:15 does not refer to accepting a historical Jesus, but a divine Jesus. Using the same logic, if I don’t understand the true nature, am I saved any more than the atheist who does not understand is? |

4 | Holy Spirit and the nature of God? | Heb 1:2 | kalos | 7999 | ||
Hiram: Thank you for a good question, one in which many others are likely to have an interest. I dare not judge you concerning your salvation. I merely bring the following to your attention for your consideration: "To believe in Jesus Christ [for one's salvation] is to have a confident conviction that: "1) *He is who the Bible says He is* (emphasis added). "2) He will do what He promises. "3) Upon placing my trust in Him, I enter into a personal, eternal relationship with the Son of God." (Quoted from a sermon by Charles Stanley, In Touch Ministries) |
