1 | Is it right to use the word "Trinity"? | Bible general Archive 1 | Larkspur | 38216 | ||
Is it right to use the word "Trinity"? The dictionary definition implies equality between God, Jesus and Holy Spirit. Even the Bible doesn't use the word Trinity. I've had this question thrown at me from different directions and would value your opinion. My understanding is that God is the head, Jesus is His Son and then the Holy Spirit. | ||||||

Why not? Is it right to use the word rapture? Just because a word does not appear in the Bible doesn't mean that it is the spawn of Hell! "Trinity" is a single descriptive word for a reality presented in the Bible, the same as with the word "rapture." "Rapture" is the sudden taking away. Trinity describes the triune nature of God, three persons, equal in value and essence, yet possessing differing roles in the economy of salvation. They are in that order if you wanted to apply an order. Think of it as three co-equals doing different jobs just like my stomach doesn't do the thinking "well, sometimes! :)", yet I don't regard my stomach of less value than my brain. They both are me! If we were to get technical about words, then we should all be speaking in ancient Greek and Hebrew as it is used in the original autographs. |

"You said" three persons, equal in value and essence, yet possessing differing roles in the economy of salvation. But Jesus said they are not equal: oh 14:28 ΒΆ Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. Joh 13:16 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord; neither he that is sent greater than he that sent him. God bless, Johnny |

Johnny, The Father and the Son are both GOD. "I and the Father are one." John 10:30 However, the Son is distinct from the Father. "For God so loved the world that He sent his only begotten Son, so that whosoever believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life." (John 3:16) - Makarios |

Yes I do believed that Father and Son are both God. What I am trying to say is that, it is Jesus telling us that they are not equal. John 10:30 "I and the Father are one". of course they are one, because Jesus Christ is a very part of the Father:Joh 1:18 No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him. They are one in taking of thier flocks. They are one but not equal as Christ mentioned; "the Father is greater than Him" God bless, Johnny |
