The Trinity study ,plural references to God in the Old Testament:Plural nouns, pronouns, verbs, adverbs

[DavidTree]

Yep, I am 100% certain.

Immanuel = God with us or God is with us --- God was with us through Jesus Christ - God was not with us literally, but working powerfully throught his Son, just as 2 Corinthians 5:19 indicates: “That God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself” (NKJV). It is important to read exactly what was written: God was in Christ, not God was Christ.

The woman said to him, “I know that Messiah is coming (he who is called Christ). When he comes, he will tell us all things.” Jesus said to her, “I who speak to you am he.”........ Yes, Jesus is the Messiah. And yes, he was 'before Abraham' in the foreknowledge of God.

Not with us personally???

JESUS Says, "If you have seen ME you have seen the FATHER" = EQUALITY of PERSON = PERSON is GOD

"That all men should honor the Son, even as they honor the Father.
He that does not honor the Son does not honor the Father which sent him."

Not with us personally???

Scripture says that God was IN Christ not Christ is God ---- scripture says that the Father was IN Jesus NOT Jesus was God.
God and Christ are IN us spiritually if we are born again of the spirit. Jesus prayed about that --- regarding the Father IN HIM and HIM IN THE FATHER ---- that we also may be IN THEM ---- Jesus IN US and God IN him. CHRIST IN US THE HOPE OF GLORY!

....that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that they also may be in us, so that the world may believe that you have sent me....... I in them and you in me, that they may become perfectly one, so that the world may know that you sent me and loved them even as you loved me. [John 17:21,23]

JESUS Says, "If you have seen ME you have seen the FATHER" = EQUALITY of PERSON = PERSON is GOD

Yea, sure - not equally but qualitatively ---- Jesus perfectly reflected the character of God so when we see him we see the Father reflected through him.

If you had known me, you would have known my Father also. From now on you do know him and have seen him........Have I been with you so long, and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say 'Show us the Father'? (HOW?) Do you not believe that I am IN the Father and the Father is IN me?......Believe me that I am IN the Father and the Father is IN me or else believe on account of the works themselves [John 14:7,9, 10a,11]

Who did the works? Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs that GOD DID THROUGH HIM in your midst, as you yourselves know..... [Acts 2:22]

"That all men should honor the Son, even as they honor the Father.
He that does not honor the Son does not honor the Father which sent him."

Yes, that is correct --- but please NOTE: it is the Father which sent him ---- therefore, the ONE SENT is NOT THE ONE WHO SENT HIM.

The SENDER does not = the one sent nor does the one SENT = the SENDER.

Scripture says that God was IN Christ

CORRECT = IMMANUEL = GOD with us

not Christ in God

FALSE

The Scripture Declares that Christ and God are inseparable = "The WORD was GOD"

Jesus answered them, “I told you, and you do not believe. The works that I do in My Father’s name, they bear witness of Me. But you do not believe, because you are not of My sheep, as I said to you. My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me.
And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of My Father’s hand.
I and My Father are One.”
Believe Me that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me;

JESUS told you = but you do not believe His words
