Your Views on The Trinity

[101G]

The Spirit of God was hovering over the water and God speak with someone whom have also the power to create. (Col 1:16)

Gen 1:2
2 And the earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep; and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters.
NASB

Gen 1:26-27
26 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth."
NASB

First the Spirit of God is God...... for God is ... a .... Spirit. ONE Spirit... that's your FIRST MISTAKE.
your second mistake, "Gen 1:26-2726 Then God said, "Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness".
LISTEN to JESUS, 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," he is ONE person. Jesus said God is a he, one person.... Jesus don't LIE.

We need to tell Albert Einstein that he and I are wrong because according to you two things can be 100 percent at the same time.

You can stick with a man (Jer. 17:5) while I'll stick with what God affirms from the Bible (Jer. 17:7).

Already proven. You deny. Dont ask.

We will never fully comprehend our Triune God. The only kind of god we could fully understand would be a god we made in our own image. But in reality, we are the ones who have been made in His.

As we draw near to God, we can assure ourselves that He reveals Himself to those who seek Him.

The more rightly we perceive him, the more deeply we can treasure him, the more fully we can worship him, and the more passionately we can join him in his work throughout the world of sharing the gospel.

The problem with that is logic and reason along with math and physics that Elbert Einstein teaches was created by God.

ELohim is always THREE = Beginning in Genesis chapter 1


"In the beginning Elohim" = FATHER
The Spirit of Elohim that hovers over the waters is the HOLY SPIRIT
The Spirit that Spoke is the WORD that is Elohim = John 1:1

Genesis 1:26 - THREE = "Elohim said, let Us make man in Our image according to Our likeness

Why were two created in the image of Elohim???

IMPORTANT = Elohim made ONE Man in HIS Image

The woman was made from the man = BOTH made in the image of Elohim

This is a MYSTERY but it Speaks of CHRIST and HIS Church/Body/Bride

The spirit of God, the "Holy Spirit," that is over the waters Isa 40:18,22 says is God's image, His image.
In Our image (Gen 1:26) = two (Gen 1:27), male and female.
God made two in His image, male and female, that is only two! But first He made Adam, and Adam was all alone, then from Adam He made Eve, which is "in Our image (Gen 1:26)" explained! As it asks in Isa 40:21.

Since most Christians believe the Trinity is a mystery and not to be understood is a huge reason why doctrinal discussions about it are often avoided or brushed aside and ignored. Worse, the teaching that the Trinity is a “mystery” has been used as a club to beat down doubters and dissenters, and those people are often branded as “heretics” and their role in Christianity minimized.

 

[Peterlag]

The Bible says in many verses that there is only one God and “God” does not have a God. We read in Isaiah 44:6 “…there is no God besides me” and Ephesians 4:6 says there is “one God and Father of all, who is over all.” Jesus has a God in contrast to “God” who alone is God and does not have a God. Jesus spoke about his God after the resurrection to Mary Magdalene, saying “…I ascend to my Father and your Father, and my God and your God” (John 20:17). Jesus still called God “my God” after his ascension into heaven when he was standing at the right hand of God.

There are also verses in the New Testament that clearly speak of “God” being the“God” of Jesus Christ. Romans 15:6 says “...you can, with one mouth, glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” 2 Corinthians 1:3, Ephesians 1:3, and 1 Peter 1:3 all say “Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.” So the “one God and Father” (Ephesians 4:6) is the God of Jesus Christ. The “one God” of the Bible never says He has a God because He is God, the Father, the Creator, “the Most High God” and He has no equals. Jesus is not “God” because he's a man, the last Adam, the created Son of God, and the God of Jesus is God the Father.

I don't see your point here.
What I mean the three already exist in the book of Genesis. The Spirit and the Father who talks to one that also has the power to create. (Col 1:16)

God's word explains how many the "in Our image" is in verse 27, male and female = two.
All things were created by God's spoken word Psalm 33:6. Jesus is that eternal living word that became flesh, God's literal Son. The living bread from heaven..is my flesh (Jn 6:51).

The spirit of God, the "Holy Spirit," that is over the waters Isa 40:18,22 says is God's image, His image.
In Our image (Gen 1:26) = two (Gen 1:27), male and female.
God made two in His image, male and female, that is only two! But first He made Adam, and Adam was all alone, then from Adam He made Eve, which is "in Our image (Gen 1:26)" explained! As it asks in Isa 40:21.

God made ONLY One in His image = Adam

Eve comes from Adam so Eve also is made in the image of God.

Not two separate images but ONE image of God = Genesis 1:27

So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

 

[DavidTree]

consider this, Jesus said God is ONE PERSON, 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," he is one person, and Jesus said God is a "HE", do you believe Jesus?

101G.

Who is the "he"???

HE the FATHER
HE the SON
HE the HOLY SPIRIT

 

[Bob Carabbio]

To those outside the Christian faith, the doctrine of the Trinity seems a very strange teaching indeed. It seems to violate logic, for it claims that God is three and yet that he is one.

That something violates HUMAN WISDOM isn't important one way or another. God's ways are higher than OUR ways, but the time will come when we KNOW even as we are KNOWN. (1 Cor 13:12)

Thanks for letting us know who your god is.

All I ever asked was for a verse in the New Testament that says only God can forgive sins. And you have never been able to find one.

So you throw away the Old Testament because it does not agree with you

And duh if sin is against Yahweh who else can forgive it

Daniel 9:9 (LEB) — 9 Compassion and forgiveness belong to the Lord, our God, for we have rebelled against him,

Hello forgiveness belongs to God

As I stated, you need to stop allowing your bias to cause you to disbelieve the word of God.

 

[TomL]

How does the Bible contradict me when everything you posted agrees with what I posted?

Hardly one verse shows he is fully man, the other fully God.

Do you have anything beside bald denial of scripture to offer?

 

[7xLightray]

God made ONLY One in His image = Adam

Eve comes from Adam so Eve also is made in the image of God.

Not two separate images but ONE image of God = Genesis 1:27

So God created man in His own image; in the image of God He created him; male and female He created them.

Important: Then God said, “Let us [plural] make man in our [plural] image, after our [plural] likeness. And let them [plural] have dominion.."

 

[Peterlag]

Hardly one verse shows he is fully man, the other fully God.

There is no Scripture that shows Jesus is God.

The New Testament says Jesus can forgive sins and he's not God.

I did not say who my God was. I said logic and reason along with math and physics that Elbert Einstein teaches was created by God.

If you refer the God the Father as one person, yes. Because in Trinity for me is they are one in the nature of being God in three distinct persons.

But if you refer that Jesus is the Father. You will find it hard to explain the text below;

John 17:1 These things Jesus spoke; and lifting up His eyes to heaven, He said, "Father, the hour has come; glorify Thy Son, that the Son may glorify Thee,
NASB
