Bible Note: Hi, Kepha... I'm sorry, but what you have presented here is an error known as Modalism. "We worship one God in trinity and trinity in unity, neither confounding the Persons nor dividing the Substance." --The Athanasian Creed "There be three persons in the Godhead, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost; and these three are one true, eternal God, the same in substance, equal in power and glory; although distinguished by their personal properties." --Westminster Larger Catechism "To know this God, who both condescends to share all that we are and makes us share in all that He is in Jesus Christ, is to be lifted up in His Spirit to share in God’s own self-knowing and self-loving until we are enabled to apprehend Him in some real measure in Himself beyond anything that we are capable of in ourselves. It is to be lifted out of ourselves, as it were, into God, until we know Him and love Him and enjoy Him in His eternal Reality as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in such a way that the Trinity enters into the fundamental fabric of our thinking of Him and constitutes the basic grammar of our worship and knowledge of the One God." --Thomas F. Torrance For an excellent outline for the Biblical support for the doctrine of the Trinity, please see: http://www.apologetics.com//articles/doctrinal_apologetics/bowman-trinity.html In Him, Doc |
