Bible Question: Many churches teach that Jesus is the name of the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, is there any reference in the bible to prove this? |
Bible Answer: Yumple -- There is, as has been pointed out in other posts on the thread, a large number of verses in the New Testament which put to rest the heretical notion that Jesus is the name of all three members of the Godhead. But there are two verses in particular that I want you to look at, Matthew 3:16,17. Here in these two verses we see the simultaneous appearance of the Trinity on the occasion of Jesus' baptism, the convergence as it were of God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. These two verses from Matthew alone, in the absence of any others, are sufficent to expose the Jesus Only doctrine as pure bunkum and theological claptrap. --Hank |
