God is only one person. not a trio. To understand God’s Plurality as one Person, one must begin at the beginning.
Scripture #1. Genesis 1:26 "And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth."
Here in verse 26 we see the plurality of God as one Person. Because the very next verse confirms this. Genesis 1:27 "So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them."
And this is certified by God himself in flesh. Take special note of verse 4. Matthew 19:3 "The Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?" Matthew 19:4 "And he answered and said unto them, Have ye not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,"
Here God in flesh, the Lord Jesus ….. who cannot lie, states God is a “he” who made man male and female in the beginning. now if one says he or she believes that the Lord Jesus cannot LIE, (which is true), then in earnest we all must return to Genesis chapter 1 and find out why God said, “us” and “our” in verse 26 and in the very next verse say “he” and “his” which are single person designations, or as one poster says single pronouns. And there is nowhere in the bible that say the angels help God in Creation, he was ALONE, and BYHIMSELF according to Isaiah 44:24 which confirms what the Lord Jesus said in Matthews 19:4. Genesis 1: 1 is CLEAR and hold the key as to who made all things. as the saying is true, "if one want to finish correct, start correct. and Genesis 1:1 is the starting place..... the BEGINNING.
and if we start at Genesis 1:1 then we will know why the bible says “us” and “our” in Genesis 1:26, and “he” and “his” in the very next verse Genesis 1:27.
If one is honest, and seek the truth, then one must first, A. accept what the Lord Jesus said in Matthews 19:4 and B. find out why the scriptures states “us” and “our” in Genesis 1:26, and then states “he”, and “his” in the very next verse.
101G will entertain any scriptural answer to this understanding. Let it be scripture pertaining to God as a single person that indicate a Plurality of more than ONE PERSON.
