Hey family, I enjoy these discussions immensely as they spur us on to truly consider and understand the great faith that we have. With that being said, please remember the principle of Deut. 29:29 which says, "The secret things of the Lord belong to the Lord." There are just certain things we will NOT understand until we get to heaven. So for us to assume we, in our FINITE minds, could understand an INFINITE God is certainly out of the question. We accept what the word of God says and don't discount it just because it may be beyond our ability to understand. Much love,
THE BEAT by Allen Parr this my respone to this video ruclips.net/video/Fo7ab7Mpz94/видео.html all you did was prove the Trinity is false.
THE BEAT by Allen Parr someone said to me one time when I tried to explain the trinity that the Old Testament does not mention a triune God at all? What do you think?
Teaching Kingdom Truth NYC first off thank you for taking the time to watch my video and share your thoughts. I watched most of your video but did not get a chance to finish watching it. Here is my perspective. I think you’re trying to approach God from more of a logic or reason perspective. And anything that doesn’t make logical sense to you, you throw out. Because you cannot wrap your mind around how God could be both three and one, you say that the Trinity is not biblical. But let me ask you this. Can you fully comprehend and understand how Jesus can be both fully man and fully God? As God challenged Job, can you explain how the planets were formed and how gravity works? So you would agree that there are many things about God that we will not be able to comprehend in our finite minds. The Trinity is one of those things. Can you fully explain how predestination and man’s free will also harmonize? The answer to these questions is obviously no. But we would agree that the Bible teaches both free will and predestination. The Bible clearly teaches that God exists in three persons. And there is ample proof in the Bible that each person is God. There is also ample proof that there is only one God and that we do not believe in many gods. So I think once you approach God from more of a faith perspective rather than trying to figure everything out, I think you’ll be on the right track. Thank you buddy,
datchet11 there as signs of it such as in genesis when God said let “us” make man I. “Our” image. How can we explain that? Why did he not say let me make man in my own image? Also there is pre-incarnate appearances of Jesus Christ in the OT. Finally John 1:1 confirms that Jesus existed eternally as well.
datchet11 The New Testement doesn't mention a triune God either, just 1 God the Father, his Word, His Spirit. Thats Bible.
God - God
Jesus - God with us
Holy Spirit - God in us
Amen. The first one is God above all
Best explanation so far. Thankyou for i am no longer confused. God bless.

Some of us can’t understand Algebra. I’m going to keep it simple, it’s real and I’m putting my trust in God.
I know it's like
laying out a formula
for a rafter for a house
run and rise equals
hypotenuse or rafter
length...the angle...
of the pitch or slope...
It's this formula that's
related to the trinity doctrine
Lol , blind faith
The Trinity is a lie nd is dead, Algebra takes understanding. And is real.
@huhn huhn What has all this as to do with 3 gods?
Don’t compare Algebra with your trinity BS concept.
I love this Channel it helped me alot , this channel challenge me alot in my walk with Jesus , and i can testify i have grown spiritually watching Brother Allen , the hunger to study my bible was born here , and i can say i have really become a STUDENT of God’s word . Thank you The Beat love from Namibia love❤
Elohim Bible verse
Jesus said it Himself: "My Father is greater than I" (John 14:28). The word "God" here is Elohim. It says, "The LORD our Elohim is one LORD." Ta plural noun ." Elohim is the plural of both El and Eloah.
The Trinty if you look at 1 EGG You see the shell And if you crack it open you will see a yolk and you will see the white 3 IN ONE SO EASY TO SEE ,,
@@theodoreritola7641 You keep looking for something material to compare with God. God cannot be compared to anything. God the creator is the most high as Psalm 83:18 says. That’s where Asaph is describing Jehovah as the most high so Jehovah is and always will be the most high. There is no way around that.
God isn't weak, dependent or ignorant as Jesus was, also God doesn't need to pray to God and beg him for help like Jesus did.
Don't worship a brown middle-eastern man that never asked to be worshipped or EVER said "I am God"

Thank you Jesus for your miracles in my life. You are the best doctor
Father = God is Above All
Jesus= God with us (in Human nature )

Simple as that! I don't understand why people argue about this
Because
Makes much sense
Nat Genesis
Jesus is now the God and Father of all to the church which is his body the fulness of him that fills all in all' Ephesians 1:22-23.
1st Corinthians 15:28
Hear o Israel the LORD our God is one LORD' is part of the first of the commandments in the law Matthew 22:35-36-37, Mark 12:29-30 'love God with all your heart and with all your mind and with all your soul and with all your strength' and the second is like namely this love your neighbor as yourself' Matthew 22: 38-40.
To have eternal life is to keep the second summary of the law 'love your neighbor as yourself' Matthew 19:15-19.
The New Testament law, commandment is believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ and love one another as he gave commandment' 1st John 3:22-23.
"Lean NOT on your OWN understanding" Proverbs 3:5
The ultimate copout verse in the bible. Praise, worship and trust God without understanding why.
I dont think Allen understands who Jesus was at all.
It is one thing to look upon Jesus (quite rightly) as an object of worship, a god if you like, but to bestow upon Him a status equal to that of The Father is totally against the teaching of the Bible.
I am not suggesting that Jesus was merely a man, or an Angel of God. He was uniquely the Son of God. In the Bible He is never referred to as God the Son. This is a church title for Him. We read in John 1- 'we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father...'
Jesus said in John 14- 'My Father is greater than I'. The standard trinitarian response to this is usually along the lines- 'while He was on earth, He was subject to the Father', yet the same trinitarians quote John 10:30- 'I and My Father are one' as proof of His equality with the Father!!! Its not difficult to see the contradiction here. In John 10, Jesus is clearly talking about being one in purpose and mind with His Father. The context is the salvation of the sheep and a careful reading of this passage shows that Jesus was not claiming any kind of equal status with the Father.
This is supported elsewhere in Johns gospel (7:16-18; 12:49,50; 8:28,42; 13:16; etc). A careful and humble consideration of these words of Jesus will leave us with no doubt about Him being subservient to His Father. It is clear that Jesus is not stating this relationship with His Father as applying for just a part of His life.
The Apostle Paul clearly understood this subservient aspect of The Lords relationship with His Father and taught it to the Gentiles (I Corinthians 8:6; 11:3; 15:24-28; I Timothy 2:5; Ephesians 4:6; 5:20; etc). Note also the way in which Paul begins most of his Letters (as does Peter and John)- 'Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ'. How is it possible to read all the references above and conclude that Jesus was in any way equal to The Father.
The writer to the Hebrews (chpt 1) gives clarity to the elevated position of Jesus when He says that 'God has spoken to us by His Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things ...Jesus having become so much better than the Angels, as He has by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. For to which of the Angels did He ever say: You are My Son, Today I have begotten You? ...let all the Angels of God worship Him ...Your throne O God is for ever and ever'. It is clear that this elevated status is given to Jesus from His Father, but it is also clear, that Jesus has not been given a position equal to His Father. It goes on to say- 'You have loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; therefore God, YOUR GOD, has anointed You with the oil of gladness more than your companions'.
The doctrine of the Trinity stands on the premise of the equality of The Father and The Son. THIS DOCTRINE IS CLEARLY FALSE, even though it is believed by the vast majority of christians. To this I would say, look to the words of Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew (7:13-15).
Jesus Christ was The Son of God and is the Mediator of Gods Covenant of Peace to all who would believe in Him.

@@user-ek2ms4om7p if you care to read all the Bible passages that I referred to, you will see that Jesus is most definitely not co-equal to The Father - so where does that leave the false doctrine of the trinity?
Like the equally corrupted doctrine of the Immortal Soul, this is a paganised invention of the Catholic church, unfortunately accepted blindly by its daughters.
Read those passages together- THEN tell me where you think I've got it wrong
@@dave6148 The FIRST Christians are from the FIRST century (Acts 11), NOT from the 4 century!!!!

You follow religion, BUT the TRUE followers of CHRIST (YHWH) are NEW CREATIONS!
Jesus is God whether i, you or anyone believes or not, PERIOD!!!
Every knee will bow before YHWH JESUS (YHWH is El Shaddai - Exodus 6:3) - Isaiah 45:23/Philippians 2:10

1 Cor. 12:3 Because of this, I make known unto you that there is no man, who by The Rukha d'Alaha {The Spirit of God}, will speak and say that Eshu {Yeshua} is accursed, and also no man is able to say that MarYa {The Lord-YHWH} is Eshu {Yeshua}, except by The Rukha d’Qudsha {The Spirit of Holiness/The Holy Spirit}.
Shalom!
Thank you Allen. I love your teaching. You explain things beautifully. Thank you for your service to our Lord.
Thank you, Brother Allen, for this video. This helped me a lot, especially knowing what the Trinity was. At first, I was confused, but when I watched your video, I finally had peace. God bless you!
I'm trying really hard to understand but this just confused me even more ☹️
Ur having a hard time understanding becuz there is only one GOD there is no Trinity
THIS VIDEO IS FALSE, THERE IS ONLY ONE GOD, NOT 3 PERSONS, MODERN CHRISTIANITY HAS BECOME PAGANISM AT ITS FINEST
@@cam0987 can you further elaborate, I want to know more about what you commented.
@@ArcticSeraph God is very simple to understand, there should not be any complexity in such a case
@@ArcticSeraph I'll explain it to you. When people talk of "God," they're either conflating the nature with the "person" (which is heresy) or using it as shorthand for "God the Father."God in Christianity is a "nature" or "substance" that exists in 3 distinct persons. All of them are God, but they are still unique persons. Think of it like this: God is like identical triplets. Although identical triplets are three different people, they all LITERALLY share ONE DNA. Genetically they are identical, but are you going to look at three triplets and say they aren't 3 different people? Of course not. So it's the same with "God." God is this "divine DNA" that manifests in 3 different "people." They are not each other, but they are all one "God." It might be a little bit confusing, but once you understand the differences between "person" and "essence" it makes sense.
STEPHEN!!!!!! He experienced the Trinity.
“Now when they heard these things they were enraged, and they ground their teeth at him. But he, full of the Holy Spirit, gazed into heaven and saw the glory of God, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God. And he said, "Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of Man standing at the right hand of God."”
Acts 7:54-56 ESV
He saw the Father and Son side by side. While the Holy Spirit filled him. This verse is distinct in identifying the Trinity at work.
Jarel Washington what is a spirit by Bible definition? Because the definition has to match other scripture....line upon line. For instance when Jesus breathed on his disciples in John 20:22 and said receive ye the holy ghost what was happening? You see scripture such as this doesn't support a Trinity
So you see a 3 in one God here? Why is Jesus or h/s never seen on a "throne". Why is the H/s never seen in a heavenly vision in all the bible.? Your desire to stay in your comfort Zone is showing. Read my lengthy treatise above and think again.
Jarel Washington No because what he saw was only God and Jesus. The Holy Spirit was never there as some claim, for he, Stephen had seen 2 persons just as Zechariah had seen 2 copper mountains, or the very fact John saw 2 names.
Jarel Washington so how many Thrones are in Heaven
It was the time of the holy spirit in operation remember jesus said that the comforter wouldn't come until he ascended up to the father
This is why I love Allen Parr, hes straight to the point and educational.
1. EUSEBIUS (C. 260-C. 340) was the Bishop of Caesarea and is known as “the Father of Church History.” Although he wrote prolifically, his most celebrated work is his Ecclesiastical History, a history of the Church from the Apostolic period until his own time. Today it is still the principal work on the history of the Church at that time. Eusebius quotes many verses in his writings, and Matthew 28:19 is one of them. He never quotes it as it appears today in modern Bibles, but always finishes the verse with the words “IN MY NAME.” For example, in Book III of his History, Chapter 5, Section 2, which is about the Jewish persecution of early Christians, we read:
But the rest of the apostles, who had been incessantly plotted against with a view to their destruction, and had been driven out of the land of Judea, went unto all nations to preach the Gospel, relying upon the power of Christ, who had said to them,
Matt. 28:19 Note that it says " IN THE NAME". This is all in the singular, in other words there is only ONE Name. And it says, "in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.". It does Not say, in the name of the Father, and the Name of the Son, and the name of the Holy Spirit! NAME OF is only used ONCE. Not three times. So there is only ONE Name that fills the requirement. That is JESUS.
There is NO conflict here between Acts 2:38 and Matt. 28:19! Acts 2:38, IS THE FULLFILLING of Matt. 28:19.
Invisible God - The Father
His Eternal Word - The Son
His Infinite Love - The Holy Spirit.
But all three persons are One God
@@reginaldking9906 amen
Trinity is pagans
@@jerrypeter7616 Fake News
Yep. I would add God, the "essence" of God, the part that has no "person" features, only "being" features.
That one is omnipresence, while God as Father is Above, as Son is with us, as Holy Spirit is in us, but God as "only" God is everywhere.
We must take everything from the bible by faith. We don't have to understand everything about it. Just receive it. ☺
Unless a certain doctrine has its ORIGINS in Roman Catholic/Greek Mythology. God bless you, good brother.
We don’t have to understand it??????
Really!!!??
So what does it mean when Jesus said in Matthew 22:37
And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind."
@@raygabrelcik2578 Yep!
It’s true because God is so great past comprehension.
The thing is, trinity is not part of the Bible. Jesus taught that His Father is the only true God. John 17:1-3
Great video thanks for sharing
Wow this just explained this sooo clearly! God bless you!
Does this mean that all this time someone blindly believed the Trinity?
Trust the Bible. Here is a TRUTH.
'No man has SEEN God at ANY TIME.' - 1 John 4:12. is very clear. Jesus was never God.
Man at first, I thought Denzel Washington has now gone preaching God's word. God bless your life, man!

"GOD GIVES MESSAGE TO CHRISTIANS:"
*Most certainly they committed blasphemy, who said, "God is one of the three": whereas there is no deity other than the One Deity. And if these people do not desist from uttering such words, a painful chastisement shall be inflicted on all those from among them who have been guilty of blasphemy. Will they not, then, turn to Allah and ask His pardon?* *Allah is very Forgiving and Compassionate.*
Qur’an Chep 5 [73-74]

*And ˹on Judgment Day˺ Allah will say, “O Jesus, son of Mary! Did you ever ask the people to worship you and your mother as gods besides Allah?”*
He will answer,
*“Glory be to You! How could I ever say what I had no right to say?*
*If I had said such a thing, you would have certainly known it.*
*You know what is ˹hidden˺ within me, but I do not know what is within You.* *Indeed, You ˹alone˺ are the Knower of all unseen.*
I never told them anything except what You ordered me to say:
*“Worship Allah-my Lord and your Lord!” And I was witness over them as long as I remained among them. But when You took me, You were the Witness over them-and You are a Witness over all things.*
*If You punish them, they belong to You after all. But if You forgive them, You are surely the Almighty, All-Wise.*

@@Iamthewarner557 God said about Jesus in Matthew 17:5 “This is My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Hear Him!”
There is one God, yes. And He came to earth in the likeness of human flesh so that he could pay what we couldn't pay. This was Jesus, God come to us in the flesh to take away the sins of the whole world. Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father except through Me." He also said in John 10:30, "I and the Father are One."
The Jews he was talking to made the same mistake as you. They didn't know that God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are all One. Just like we have one sun in the sky. Even though the sun has three distinct parts--the light rays, the heat rays, and the chemical rays--it is one sun.
Likewise, there is one God with three distinct parts. Jesus said in John 12:45, "The one who looks at me is seeing the one who sent me." It is like if God was an ocean of water. Jesus could be compared to a water jar full of the same ocean water. The body is different, but what's on the inside is from the same ocean. God loves you. He wants to give you peace and forgiveness.
Romans 10:9-13 says:
that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.” 12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him. 13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
I love you and Jesus loves you ever more. If you turn to Jesus, He will free your heart. Ask him if this is true. Ask him if he is the One.
@@Iamthewarner557 pls leave why are u even here?
Great video brother! I like what Augustine said:
Yet, when the question is asked, What three? human language labors altogether under great poverty of speech. The answer, however, is given, three “persons,” not that it might be [completely] spoken, but that it might not be left [wholly] unspoken.
TRINITY
1 John 5:7
7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
1 Corinthians 12:4-6
There are different kinds of gifts, but the same Spirit distributes them. There are different kinds of service, but the same Lord. There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work.
2 Corinthians 13:14
14 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
Matthew 3:16-17
16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. 17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him, I am well pleased.”
John 14:16-17
16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another advocate to help you and be with you forever- 17 the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you.

Great video as always!!😄
The trinity doctrine is unscriptural. God said, "Is there a God beside Me? ..
I know not one" (Isaiah 44:8). The one God being referred to is the Father in heaven. The Lord Jesus said, "Father...that they may know You, the only true God..." (John 17:1, 3). The apostles explained, "yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things.." (I Cor. 8:6). But this truth is hidden in mystery from those outside God's commissioning. Let's study God's words in the IGLESIA NI CRISTO (CHURCH OF CHRIST)
If i do not understand how this Trinity is possible and i find this all very confusing but I wish to accept and respect God/Jesus/Holy Spirit with all my heart. Will that effect my salvation? I believe Jesus paid the wages of sin and im grateful but i dont want to go to hell because im confused and struggle to conceptualize the God head and existence of my Lord and savior. I just want to give the God that made me an embrace from gratitude for my life. But if i could give God an Embrace, what would be in my arms and what would the arms around me look like? Would it feel like a group hug or like im just hugging one person? If God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit were with me in a room in heaven, would i be looking at one entity, or would i be looking at multiple spots in the room? I have so many questions. Please pray for me
Trinity debunked, by use of the Bible's own doctrines:
ruclips.net/video/_kHoEDA-Xw4/видео.html
Well why did the word say that he was the first born of all creation colossians 1:15 and 1 Corinthians 25:24-28? Can someone explain this to me?
Great breakdown 😃🙏🏽 the problem with certain doctrines about explaining who God is is that too many people are trying to figure God out with human understanding. Only He can truly explain Himself to each individual, so pray and ask for clarity and truth on the matter rather than arguing/falling out with your neighbour/brothers and sisters in Christ🤦🏽♀️ Anyway that’s not even what saves your soul, our eternal life depends on believing that Jesus Christ, the son of God (through His death and resurrection) brought man’s redemption and a way out from eternal damnation, He is the way the truth and the life, the one who reconnects us back to the Father! Just because something doesn’t make sense, doesn’t make it wrong, it just means we have to seek God truly for who He is with all our hearts in prayer and studying the word of God despite the many philosophies, theologies and theories constructed by man. Regardless, we’ll never have God figured out but we can only trust that He’ll reveal what’s important and lead us to eternal life.
Love this ❤️
The trinity makes so much sense because:
Whenever God wants to do something with his almighty he first wills it, then he does it. That’s how God always works, first willing something and then doing it.
For example: How does God make it that he is eternal. He does the following.
First God wills to be eternal and then he uses the power to realize this will.
so the commandment that God gave himself to be eternal has always existed, he never created it, it has always been there. He can’t just create the commandment to be eternal. Also, the power of God which implements this commandment that he is eternal has always existed, he never created it. He can’t just create the power that makes him eternal
So these things have always existed:
God, the word of God (Jesus) and the power of God that implements the word of God (Holy Spirit)
Only God is eternal because to be eternal you have to be omnipotent , that is why the word of God and the power of God that implements his word (Holy Spirit) are God.
That’s why the the Bible makes soooo much sense when it says
In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God.
It makes soooo much sense why there HAS TO BE three persons that are one God, and not only one person.
If there is an omnipotent being it has to be always triunion otherwise it can’t exist
Trinity = Man seeing God in their image

Thank you, Denzel.
I was raised in the lds church (also know as the Mormon church.) but after I became a teenager I started doing research and long story short I stopped believing in the Book of Mormon and my faith became aligned with the teachings in the Bible. I am still learning things I wasn’t taught in the lds church and I want to understand the trinity but it’s still difficult for me to comprehend because I was repeatedly taught at a young age that God, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit are three separate beings. I am trying my best to understand the trinity that the Bible teaches us but I don’t think I’m doing a very good job at comprehending that they are one. Is god one spirit who dwells in three separate forms at once? or is he three separate beings united as one? And did god send himself to die on the cross in the form of Jesus and still stayed in heaven at the same time? Can someone explain this to me in a way that I can understand? I watched the video and I’m still confused. Either way I love god and have faith in him, I just want to better understand him so I can become closer to him and know the fullness of his gospel and so I won’t unknowingly spread false doctrine.
Hi. How was your journey leaving the lds church? Praise God you came out of it
be careful, trinity is catholic church adopted pagan religious belief. research this. listen to no one but Abba on this matter.
I already posted a comment but in case you don’t read it I’ll share it with you. First off if you wanna make actual sense of the Bible don’t rely on these types of popcorn entertainment videos. In fact it’s clergy like him (and even Jeff Durbin) that makes it more complicated than it has to be. The easiest way to view the trinity is as follows: CEO, CFO & COO. Three separate but one in purpose. It’s my opinion the main reason Christians don’t sub to this idea is if they do that automatically puts them in a position to believe in Joseph Smith’s version & that’s the last thing they want. But that’s just faulty reasoning. Just because you believe in 3 separate Gods doesn’t mean you have to believe in Mormonism. Nor does it mean you’re a “polytheist pagan”. I tell ya there’s so much sophistry in religion it’s not even funny.
Great is mystery of Godliness....this was hidden from the wise and revealed to babes ..... to answer this complicated question ask yourself who raised Jesus from the dead .Was it the father Jesus or the Holy Spirit
Well This Is How He Is .
There Is One God, But Since He Is God, He Has Three copies of himself with different names BUT STILL HIMSELF he can Still Command The Position Of The Father, And The Father Can send his son(But still Himself In The Copy Of The Son ,And The Father Can Use Himself In The Copy Of The Holy Spirit To Resurrect The Son and vise versa , okay let me say he makes copies of himself to work out different things ,Without moving from The Throne.
HE OPERATES IN THREE DIFFERENT VERSIONS OF HIMSELF WITHOUT LEAVING THE THRONE AS GOD..
In fact He can even intercede to His Father Version Of God Through His Version Of The Son and Holy Spirit..NO OTHER SPIRIT IS CAPABLE OF THIS MODE OF MANIFESTATION THATS WHAT MAKES HIM EXCEPTIONALLY GOD!!
Thank you Allen for the video ❤️
God bless you ❤️
I’m aware I’m super late on watching this video from the time it was posted, but does anyone have that link he mentioned for more Scripture?? 1:26
Man is created in the image of God: Body, soul and Spirit. Jesus was the body manifest on earth, He's soul, which is the Father, His Spirit which is the Holy Spirit. That's why He alone could say, if you have seen me you have seen the Father, if you have known me you have known the Father for we are one. He came unto His own and they received Him not. One God, one faith, one baptism. Please read : Isaiah 9 :6
John 10:36
Do you say of him whom the Father consecrated and sent into the world, ‘You are blaspheming,’ because I said, ‘I am the Son of God’?
How do you explain that text where Jesus himself said he is the son of God and not God himself ? And there are more then 100 Bible verses where he says that over and over again.
The prophecies of Isaiah 7:14 & Isaiah 9:6 said that this promised Son would be God in human flesh (Immanuel & the everlasting Father). When Jesus told Philip "When you see me, you see the Father", He was merely echoing what the prophet Isaiah had already said. If you read the four places in the Gospel of John where Jesus was talking about sending the "Comforter", you'll notice that sometimes he said " I will send", other times he said " the Father will send". This comforter is the Holy Ghost as the scripture said; also of which Matt. 1:18 says that Mary was found with child of the Holy Ghost. How then could Jesus send His own Father?
@@daystargospel5566 Jesus did say “nobody can come to my father before coming to me” and that’s just in prayer. Look how Jesus didn’t call himself God he did say when you see me you see the Father hencing he is of the image of his Father. Not in one text in the Bible did Jesus say he is God. Although his disciples called him Lord they didn’t mean that as he is God. That’s a way of addressing someone specially back in those days.The Bible’s answer Jesus’ opposers accused him of making himself equal to God. (John 5:18; 10:30-33) However, Jesus never claimed to be on the same level as Almighty God. He said: “The Father is greater than I am.”-John 14:28. Jesus’ early followers did not view him as being equal to Almighty God. For example, the apostle Paul wrote that after Jesus was resurrected, God “exalted him [Jesus] to a superior position.” Obviously, Paul did not believe that Jesus was Almighty God. Otherwise, how could God exalt Jesus to a superior position? -Philippians 2:9.
@@abbyxg5596 I'm certainly not trying to argue but give my revelation of who Jesus was: John ch 1. In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. Further, all things were created by Him and for Him. Further and the Word became Flesh and dwelt among us and we beheld Him as the only begotten Son of the Father. In other words the Word which is God was revealed to us in the flesh which is Jesus. In Him dwell the fulness of the Godhead bodily. I leave these scriptures with you not to confuse you but that God will reveal to you the truth. I was astounded when it hit me who Jesus really was. Agape love from me and I trust that the Lord will answer you as you do have a sincere heart.
@@rodneydevries749 not trying to argue either but I honestly don’t like when people say Jesus was God when he would say that his Father was God. If you look in the Bible not in one text did Jesus himself say he was God he always said my Father the almighty is God. I don’t know why people use other text describing Jesus as the image of his father and twist it to say he is God. Jehovah God and Jesuscrist aren’t the same . Just look at when Jesus told Peter the disciple to walk the water by the boat and Peter walked on the water . The people and his disciple recognize him “ You really are the Son of God” and not once did Jesus correct them by saying he is God. He always said his Father is God . And he came here to do his Fathers will.
Great video! I’m actually doing a series right now explaining this!
Before u put out your series be mindful on what information you give the people of God talking about something that as never been in the Scriptures. God is not s trinity and anyone who believes in that lie will be thrust into hell.

When they were preaching the Trinity in church, my little one asked "So which God do I pray to?"
I finally came to my senses.
Matthew 11:25 Jesus said "I praise You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise & intelligent and have revealed them to infants." The kingdom of heaven belongs to people like these children. Matthew 19:14
The gospels they hid from us (by the miracle of God found this generation) - have warnings not to associate any names to God, as that would lead ppl astray. God has no name known to man in this world. We are all born with a conscience & the knowledge in our heart that there is one God our Creator & we call him God in whichever language we know. It is really simple & straightforward. It is man who teach that God's name is another & fanciful theories of the Trinity, old/new convenant.
Amen brother

You are correct. The bible never said trinity. That has always been a pagan belief since Babylon
That's the truth sister there is only one God these trinatarians don't realize to believe in 3 person's is idolatry, the Lord God is one Lord, they lean to their own understanding instead to Gods word, they have fanciful theories and can use their reasoning and logic and try to get it to "make sense" but it is false and started at the nicean council by the roman catholic church. The God of the Bible always was one same with water baptism people can't see how simple it is, the Name of Father, Son and Holy Ghost is none other than the Lord Jesus Christ. Not one apostle ever baptized any other way than the name Jesus Christ, because Father is not a name, son is not a name and Holy Spirit is not a name, it is what it is his name is Jesus Christ. People want to argue about it but he has hid it from the wise and prudent and revealed it to babes such as would learn.
@@moyreyes3508 John 10;30 “I and my Father are one.”

Yah, MUDDY water.
Thank you for this succinct explanation of the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. God’s blessings...
There is no such thing as a Trinity. Only one God.
Where is the explanation? This belief is garbage man. No 2 trinity beliver carries the same benefits which shows you that you guys are confused. God is one and he says there is none with HIM! If I say there is no one with me at home but I am here father son and husband please tell me your gonna tell me I am home with 2 more persons. Smh father son holy spirit are all titles talking about the one God
Have a great day to you Sir. Sir when God Jesus return and yet it's not for the final judgement. How are we going to recognise him? What identities are we going to use to recognise him that he is the Son of God?
can you help me understand verses that explain the relationship between GOD, CHRIST AND HOLY SPIRIT, using bible verses which are clear. Also where do we learn of the co-existence of the three in scripture. The verses that explain the statement that the trinity is God is existing in 3 distinct
persons
Scripture isn't "clear" about all things. In fact, I would say it is deliberately unclear. Why? Because we cannot just read our way to the truth. We need to experience it through a living relationship with God. For example, when Jesus asked Peter who he thought he was Peter said this:
"Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.” (Matthew 16:16)
And now notice what Jesus said in response:
"Jesus replied, “Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by flesh and blood, but by my Father in heaven."
Why hadn't Jesus told Peter, one of his closest disciples, who he really was? Why didn't Peter respond to Jesus with "clear" scriptures that revealed Jesus identity? The reason Jesus asked Peter who he was, rather than just telling him, is because asking stimulates us in a way that telling does not. It promotes thoughts that inspire us to turn to God for the answer.
The Bible contains mysteries. Jesus identity was such a mystery, not only at that time, but even today. You cannot know Jesus identity, and be absolutely certain of who he is, merely through diligent study, or by way of intellect, or by asking someone else. It has to be revealed.
"We accept human testimony, but God’s testimony is greater because it is the testimony of God, which he has given about his Son." (1 John 5:9)
@@paulbrennan4163
Well, I totally understand, but for us to know God we need scriptures as said in 2 Peter 1 vs 20-21 which reads:
20 Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.
This means that if we compare and study scriptures, we get answers also because 1 John 4 vs 1 says:
1 Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.
This gives the Bible the power to judge prophets, doctrines, philosophies and sermons spoken to enhance Christianity, so if we say this topic (of the Trinity) cannot be easily understood by mortals or should I say, "the finite cannot understand the infinite", then 1 John 4vs 1 should be altered. Therefore, I believe the Trinity should be explained using Bible verses more, for instance the Topic "Jesus died for our sins" cannot be taught without verses that; prophesied of His coming, outlined His mission and proved His accomplishment of the mission, this is meant to show that God planned for the coming of Jesus to die for our sins so as to refute any notions by people that a man just died then Christians want to claim a random act to make it their doctrine.
Now on trinity, I have only managed to see quotes of pieces of scripture, then when I read the entire chapter, I find that the context is different from the one given in trying to explain the existence of the 'Trinity concepts' in the Bible. Also, if the Trinity is central to Christian Faith why can't we explain and defend it Biblically?
I also have a problem on the co-equal concept of the Trinity members, because Jesus prayed to God which means He is inferior to the one He prayed to; then the Holy Spirit is sent which means the one who sends is more powerful; again, Jesus and the Holy spirit have a mission to honor God, give praise to God, convict people of God's word, accomplish God's mission and plan for mankind as well as to bring people to God. So basically, Jesus and the Holy spirit work for God. Jesus once said, 'all that I do I saw from my Father'; and He also said, 'I bear witness to my Father', this means that Jesus' instructions and references was not His but the Father's, a sign that they are not equal.
So, this doctrine, issue or concept called Trinity should be explained using scriptures so that 1 John 4 vs 1 will not be used to dismiss the trinitarian doctrine.
@@ronaldgono208 Oh, I'm sorry, I should have been clearer. I fully understand and believe wholeheartedly that we need scripture to guide us into the truth. My point was only that the very deepest things of God - involving the identity of Christ demands revelation rather than diligent theological studies. If you only knew how much of my life is devoted to getting people support their claims with scripture. And if you only knew the things that God has revealed to me while sudying scripture!
And please notice that I actually did support my comment with scripture, and not just an empty claim.
I'm glad that you take 1 John 1:4 seriuosly! So do I. My whole life is involved in efforts to be as Berean as I can. In every issue I come across I make sure to look carefully at what both sides are saying and _always_ check everything out with scripture. But this takes a lot of patience!
What we need to be on our guard against is confirmation bias, which often comes from deciding too early on what one believes. Confirmation bias comes when we decide to take a stance on something without realizing that we subconsciously listen more to supporting arguments than opposing ones. We read someone's comments and only look for ways to refute what they are saying and miss important things that should be listed to. I decided early on as a Christian to take measures against it. I listen to everyone, check it out with scripture, and weigh things up in my heart.
I wasn't taught by anyone to believe in the trinity. I was aware of the "problem verses" and decided to put the whole question on the shelf - where it stayed for years - until I felt I had confirmation in my heart, and confidence in my mind to know where I stood.
Today, there are quite a lot of things that I feel that God has revealed to me that I don't see being argued in these debates. But it takes time to explain. The criticism you seem to have against the trinity is that it isn't "explained" clearly enough in scripture and that is what I tried to address, but consider it from the opposite perspective. Where is the explanation for opposing views? All one can do is point to the schema - that God is "one" - but that isn't an explanation because it doesn't really explain what is meant by "one", especially when you consider the fact that Jesus used a plurality of persons to describe his being "one" with the Father, that Adam and Eve were one, that almost every word for God in the OT is plural, Genesis 1:26, and so on.
When you look at the objections that people have against the trinity, most of the time it is nothing more than one-liners, unsupported claims concerning Catholic or pagan ideas the church fathers made up, or scripture taken out of context, and not much more than that. When we don't have all the details given in scripture then we have to ask ourselves - which is the best explanation for what we see? My contention is that the trinity is the only one that makes sense of all scripture, and not just cherry-picked verses.
But this is a huge subject and I have to leave it here or I will end up writing a book. But let me know what further objections you have. For example, why Jesus said the Father is greater than he, why Jesus _had_ to be God, why Jesus _had_ to have a God, Why Jesus never claimed to be God, why John 17:3 does not disprove the trinity, why 1 Corinthians 8:6 does not disprove the trinity, and so on. I can answer these questions and more.
Keep seeking--keep knocking." God bless you and your family.
I remember the first time hearing about the 'Trinity.' And getting it explained to me, I was like, WHAT! Fast-forward to this day; its so easy to understand! It just takes a bit of time to wrap your head around it. Our Creator is AMAZING😊😍💙!
Can you please explain how 3 serpste beings all fully God and all coexisting can make 1 God. Either they're 3 separate Gods or each equate to 1/3 of God.
@@sakaria744 Well, maybe if you think of it this way; lets say we have a man named Tim. He's a husband, a son and a father, but yet he is 1 person. So, in a similar way, thats how God is... Does that help in any way?
@@jess1987 I'm sorry but that analogy doesn't work because the father is the husband who also is the son. So you can say theres 1 tim. But when you say jesus is not the father who's not the Son but they're all fully God that's where it doesn't ever make sense
@@jess1987 in Islam we worship Allah alone without any partners and we love jesus he is the slave and messnger of Allah, he was never crucified rather Allah raised him and a look alike was crucified. How can he be crucified when the bible says the one who dies by crucifixion is cursed.

CSB: Christ redeemed us from the curse of the law by becoming a curse for us, because it is written, Cursed is everyone who is hung on a tree.

I believe that no human being can truly and perfectly understand who/what the true God is(as described in the bible), for to do so one must be a god also, like any animal to comprehend any human. How can a finite understand the infinite?

@@sabrina3138 Hebrews 3:1 Consequently, brothers set apart, partakers of a most exalted position, consider the apostle and high priest of our declaration, Jesus Christ, 2 faithful to Him Who created him, as Moses also was in all his house. 3 For he has been counted worthy of more eminence than Moses, since the one having constructed it has more honour than the house. 4 For every house is built by somebody, but He Who built all things is God. 5 And Moses was indeed faithful in all his house as a servant, for a testimony of those things going to be spoken afterwards.
6 Christ, though, is faithful as a son over his house, whose house we are, if we hold fixed the firm confidence and the rejoicing of the hope until the end.
The trinity doctrine is unscriptural. God said, "Is there a God beside Me? ..
I know not one" (Isaiah 44:8). The one God being referred to is the Father in heaven. The Lord Jesus said, "Father...that they may know You, the only true God..." (John 17:1, 3). The apostles explained, "yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things.." (I Cor. 8:6). But this truth is hidden in mystery from those outside God's commissioning. Let's study God's words in the IGLESIA NI CRISTO (CHURCH OF CHRIST)
You see, here's the problem with the concept; you can have your own way of explaining it. That's why you see videos on youtube with titles such as "How I explain Trinity".
God is not a God of confusion and it should not be up to human beings to bring different explainations of the concept that was, by the way, brought up about 3 centuries later.
I want to ask you something brother. You repeatedly said God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirt. Well we can find "God the Father" in the Scripture but where did you bring the rest two from?
So when Jesus is baptized. Jesus is in the water. We hear a voice saying “this is my Beloved Son in who I am well pleased.” Was that Jesus talking to Himself?
No, Jesus is God’s representative on earth, being the only human to achieve perfection and be a perfect temple of God. You could, by analogy, liken a perfect human (a human one with God in heart) to being the physical body of God, and God the mind of said body, and thus you could say when you see Jesus that you saw God, but he is not literally God himself.
Jesus calls God ‘Father’, and God called him ‘Son’, at the cross Jesus said ‘my God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?’ With these words Jesus confirms he is talking to someone separate from him. Much of the Bible is symbolic, metaphorical, and poetic.
No, he was talking to the real God, his Father. The trinity is a false doctrine, that's why so many say it's a 'mystery'. The Bible was written for us to understand, and not confuse people. The trinity does nothing more than waste time arguing about something that is not mentioned once anywhere in the Bible, it's a total fraud. Pray to God THROUGH Jesus, and that will be fine.
Allen, I love your channel. You have a true heart for Yeshua(Jesus). What you're saying, and what I grew up believing, is confirmed in Genesis, when he speaks of mans creation. "HE" spoke the words, "let us make man in OUR image. Its actually quite simple. Thanks. God bless you and yours.🙏😊👍
If it were THAT simple, Mr. "Heavy," the debating would have been OVER long ago. God, in this verse, is speaking "Prophetically." His plan to "save" mankind required a "Savior," a Savior that had not yet COME. But God--being God--clearly KNEW His great plan. He SEES the future as if it has ALREADY HAPPENED. Rom.4:17 says, HE "calls things that are NOT as though they WERE." That means God SEES, in His GREAT MIND, every thing that will TAKE PLACE in the future, but He speaks as if it has already OCCURRED. He DOES that because He's God! Most theologians admit that this is God referring to the "coming Messiah," because the Old Test. is highlighted with prophecy of the coming Messiah, and the "types" that represent him. Notice: Nowhere in the Old
Test., aside from those "prophecies" do we "see" Christ. Jesus did NOT appear until his "Virgin Birth" in the NEW Test. So, in other words, God was pointing to the "work" He would accomplish IN us THROUGH His "Son." And by the way, "image" here is not referring to "anatomical," it refers to "spiritual." God would "create" (re-create) through a "Spiritual regeneration." That is--being "Born-again." I know that's a lot to swallow at one time, but, keep an open heart. This "Tri-theistic doctrine was created by the ancient Roman Catholic church; not one SINGLE trinitarian term is found in the Greek or Hebrew--VERY suspicious! Study. Pray. Don't just read, or listen to what everyone says. Even ME! Study--seek the LORD and His Christ. God bless you, brother.

Thank you brother Allen! People have been arguing with me on this subject & this is what I’ve been telling people But they’re keep saying GOD , JESUS, THE HOLY SPIRIT are the same person & you can pray to all 3. Scripture never says pray to JESUS or the HOLY SPIRIT. Aren’t we lead by the HOLY SPIRIT, saved by the blood of JESUS & our relationship to the FATHER through CHRIST?
Wow great question i see what what you are saying !
You are correct. Many haven’t received that revelation. Matthew 16:16-18
16 And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.
17 And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.
can you explain your question?
I’m still confused. How can 3 be 1. It’s as clear as saying 2 + 2 is 5. I want to get it but I just can’t. When we see God will we see three people? Who am I praying to or depicting during prayer? Why does Jesus say the father is greater than I if they are equal? My head hurts haha.
If your still confused…think of it as this..something tangible and easily relatable
Water (liquid)
Ice (frozen water)
Steam (gas water)
Still ALL WATER just different versions
So….
There is a guy name Benny.
Benny has a son name Tim. (Benny is a dad)
Benny is married to Lucy.(Benny is a husband)
Benny’s father’s name is Mark. (Benny is a son)
Benny is one person but also a husband, son, and dad. 3 in 1
Equal but the same person.
However being a son, is not the same as being a husband, being a dad is not the same as being a son. They are all different ROLES but still the same physical person. 3 in 1
God is the same person also he is the son, father, and Holy Spirit. 3 in 1
God (father)
Son (died on cross to save sins)
Holy spirit(what god left in us after Jesus left and returned to heaven)
Different roles, still all GOD.
When Jesus came down to earth he made him self “less than the angels hierarchy”
He took off his majesty robe left it in heaven and came to earth to live as a human.
Therefore, while he was on earth, he was less than his father. No royality did he have while on earth. He was humble. Equal to man. He had all the feeling you and I have but without giving into temptation. He could hunger, be sad, be happy, angry, feel pain, etc. He was still God nevertheless- perform miracles, heal, and preach. He was 100% God and 100% Human in one body.
“A little lower than the angels" is a phrase from Epistle to the Hebrews Chapter 2 in the Bible.
A problem I have with the trinity is that Jesus always refers to God as his father, receiving his power from him, being his own image, everything being created by the father through him. I can see as I read the Bible that although Jesus is divine, he is submitted towards the father creating a sort of inequality. What are your thoughts on that?
Jesus is all powerful God but when he came in human flesh he humbled himself and didn't use his divine attributes(that doesn't mean he didn't have ) but rather prayed to God the Father . In this way he set a good example to us . Don't forget the fact that he came here to live like a Human Being.

THE TRINITY AND THE WORD MONOS
whoever believe in the trinity can not be considered a monotheistic person the trinity states that there are separation of persons that means more than one person; Monotheism is a word that means only one God as a person no three persons.
THE WORD MONOTHEISM
the word : MONOS in the Greek means only one no more than one body.
the word : THEISM means God. The word MONOS in Greek never, never is used to Christ as God only to the Father. 1 Timothy 6: 15-16; John 17: 3; 1 Timothy 1: 17; Mark 13: 32
it is not possible to be a Trinitarian and monotheistic at the same time. they are two opposites words.

This guy is protestant.
In case you didn’t get an answer somewhere: There’s no difference in your understandings of the Trinity itself. The big issue between your groups is Filioque (who the Holy Spirit proceeds from: the Father alone or the Father *and* the Son).
He said, “What thing soever I command you, observe to do it: thou shalt not add thereto, nor diminish from it.” (Deut. 12:32.)

Hello. I have two questions. If god is one in christianity, then did jesus commit suicide as the 'father' sacrificed his one and only 'son' to save mankind, And then did he ressurect himself? As they are all one god, the three of them.
Brother please once refer this , that 2 Corinthians 3:17 what does it explain?
Tnx Allen for the clear teaching on the Trinity. Difficult belief for humans to grasp this 3 in one God concept. Took me awhile to get it even as a believer.
BecUse there isn’t a SINLE coherent verse in the OT that says, “hey, we’re 1 God up here in 3 persons”
@@Truth397 Excellent point "Johnb 1:18 No man has seen God at any time; the only-begotten god who is at the Father’s side is the one who has explained Him.
Mathew 23.9 Moreover, do not call anyone your father on earth, for one is your Father, the heavenly One.10 Neither be called leaders, for your Leader is one, the Christ.11 But the greatest one among you must be your minister
There are many Christian denominations that teaches the Trinity. However, notice what the Encyclopedia Britannica states: “Neither the word Trinity nor the explicit doctrine appears in the New Testament . . . The doctrine developed gradually over several centuries and through many controversies.”
The fact is, the God of the Bible is never described as being part of a Trinity.
Notice these Bible passages:
“Jehovah (Yahweh) our God is one Jehovah.”-Deuteronomy 6:4.
“You, whose name is Jehovah (Yahweh) , you alone are the Most High over all the earth.”-Psalm 83:18.
“This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ.”-John 17:3.
“God is only one.”-Galatians 3:20.
“My Father is greater than I [Jesus].”-John 14:28. *
“I [Jesus] ascend unto my Father, and your Father, and to my God, and your God.”-John 20:17.
“To us there is but one God, the Father.”-1 Corinthians 8:6.
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.”-1 Peter 1:3.
“These things saith the Amen [Jesus], . . . the beginning of the creation of God.”-Revelation 3:14. *
Great video Allen!!!!
May Jesus Christ Blessed You Always 🌹💖🙏✝️
There is so much mental gymnastics taking place here. What we are being told here is that there is God the Father, who is God, God the Son who is God and God the Holy Ghost who is God. However, they are not 3 God's, there is only one God. But, 3 doesn't go into 1 for a reason.
It really doesn't matter what way you explain the Trinity, it can't be understood and a preacher can claim he understands it but he can't. However, he can make you feel stupid because you don't really get his explanation and you nod your head in agreement not wanting to show everybody else that you must be stupid when in reality, they are all feeling like you but are nor going to admit to it. Its like the Kings new clothes.
When Jesus was teaching in parables, he explained to his disciples why He did so, 'Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of Heaven, but to them it is not given'. ('Them' are those who teach without authority and teach things they do not understand). 'For this people's heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed...'
When you enter into the private, holy, sacred and hallowed attitude of prayer, who or what do you visualise you are praying to? Is it a glorified being that you know hears your heart and your mind or is it 3 person's who are united seamlessly with 6 legs, 6 arms and 3 heads like something out of a Hindu painting, or is it a cloud, or is it a mist with a voice. I pray to my Father in Heaven, who I am the image off and who Jesus told me to pray to. It's very simple really. I know that the Saviour sits at the right hand of God and hears my expressions of love for His atoning sacrifice for me and I can feel the presence of the Holy Ghost who is attending me and hears my prayer too. 3 God's, one in unity, with one mind, one understanding but with different functions. I don't have to let on I understand the nature of the Godhead, I fully get it.
The trinity is not mentioned in the Bible. There are more Scripture that talk about the separateness in the Bible than ones that can be twisted to create concepts like the Trinity. It arose in Carthage around 170AD, created by pagan philosophers including Tertullian. It is not scriptural and although Constantine demanded that it be accepted at the Council of Nicea in 323AD, they were still fighting about the definition 300 years later. It didn't make sense then and it doesn't make sense now.
Thank you. Can we pray to Jesus? Common sense says yes, but how to understand John 16:23.

He's near that passage wasn't in any manuscript until the 1,500's. But if it does solidify anything is that there is 3 manifestations of God. Even though it was added in to justify the Trinity.
monkymonk6 That verse is a forgery.
The very fact you accept the 1245 makes all credibility you have a loss.
The Septugiant of the verse in its original form looks like this:
7 For there are three witness bearers:
7 ὅτι Because τρεῖς three εἰσὶν are οἱ the (ones) μαρτυροῦντες, bearing witness,
7 Διότι τρεις είναι αυτοί που δίνουν μαρτυρία,
So, where is the word God mentioned in the verse? I do not understand what you are saying..
Where is the word trinity in the bible?I can't find it,can someone help?
Why are there 3 persons and not 2 or 4? Is there a natural theology based answer for this?
Hey Allen. I love your content and really helps me to better understand what I believe. Can you give me a simple answer as to why Jesus prays to the Father if He is also God. I get this question all the time. Why would he pray to himself? If you have a video in this, can you direct me to it.
Nobody is going to answer this question ?
@hfoerho thank you!! Someone finally answered my question!!
Actually the (pagan) trinity is wrong; it always have contradicted the scriptures.
Trinitarians say that " all 3 are equal" and "all 3 are persons", but the Bible contradicts this.
-- John 14:28 = "...for my Father is greater than I."
---Matt.1:18 = " she was found with the child of the Holy Ghost." (So are trinitarians changing the concept that the Holy Spirit is the Father of Jesus instead of God the Father?)
To your question: Trinitarians can't explain because it is closed.
However I will explain it: God is a family that consists of two, so that's why they are both God.
The Living Church of God had a great sermon a while back on the Trinity. Make sure you read their two booklets in Tomorrow's World called "John 3:16 = Hidden truths of the golden verse" and "Your Ultimate Destiny".

AND, SINCE GOD IS OMNIPRESENT, WHERE IS HIS HAND?
Assuming Trinity theology is true: would it be accurate to say that "God the Son" loves you more then "God the Father" given that "Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13 KJV?
But is the concept of the trinity a stretch given the biblical presentation of the Oneness of God? (cf. Deut 6:5)

THE TRINITY AND THE WORD MONOS
whoever believe in the trinity can not be considered a monotheistic person the trinity states that there are separation of persons that means more than one person; Monotheism is a word that means only one God as a person no three persons.
THE WORD MONOTHEISM
the word : MONOS in the Greek means only one no more than one body.
the word : THEISM means God.
The word MONOS in Greek never, never is used to Christ as God only to the Father. 1 Timothy 6: 15-16; John 17: 3; 1 Timothy 1: 17; Mark 13: 32
it is not possible to be a Trinitarian and monotheistic at the same time. they are two opposites words.

Please try to be as brief as possible.
@@pastorrodriguez230 🔴 ✝️ TRINITY EXPLAINED ... Praise God 🙌🏽
One God ... Father, Son and Holy Spirit ... ONE GOD.
1 ⭕️ There’s the Father God. The ‘Be All and End All’ ... He’s the Generator of the Lord Jesus and the Holy Spirit. His OWN Two Other Perceptual and Role based Identities.
All Three Are Manifestations Of The One God.
He’s OMNIPOTENT, so He is able to do that. And He did.
1 ⭕️There’s “His Word”, Jesus. God the Son.
‘God’s Word’ can only be IDENTICAL TO GOD, right ? Logically, right ? The Word of God is the EXPRESSION OF HIS WILL, right ? That means Him in Essence. God. The Bible.
1 ⭕️ And there’s God’s Spirit, the HG, which can only be God Himself, rationally, logically.
Because your spirit is you, right ?
And God’s Spirit ... is the same God. That one’s easier than the other true godhead concept that Jesus is God.
He was born without a father. THE ONLY ONE IN HISTORY BORN LIKE THAT, without a biological father.
His Father is God the Father Himself. So Jesus is DIRECTLY ‘Of’ God. He has God nature.
AND THERE’S ONLY ONE GOD. The Bible says that.
So what God did on Christmas night is create a Clone of Himself in Jesus. With the Same identical Will.
So Jesus is the same God as the Father. And the Holy Spirit.
One God. Father, Son and Holy Spirit. One God.
The Father is more mysterious relative to the Lord Jesus Christ …
Nobody ever saw the Father.
But Jesus is very accessible because He was here with us for over 30 years, looking exactly like us … but He’s God nonetheless. It is God come to live with us through becoming like us for a period.
Pray about this, and listen to what God tells you about it.
Jesus is Lord. God bless you.

What ? 😲
I’ve been doing a lot of research, and I’m trying to explain to someone close to me that Jesus was always God and at no point “gave up” or surrendered his divinity... can you expand upon this and clarify this biblically? Thank you!
As long as someone has a connection with the Lord Jesus Christ through constant prayer and obedience, the Holy Spirit inside of us will sort out the gray areas for them.
It’s OK to try to edify them by sharing what you’ve come to understand in and through your own faith walk, but give them time and space to arrive at it themselves directly from God. As long as they hear you out, it is counterproductive to try and make them accepted right now. As long as they understand what you’re saying, God will do the rest.
The main essence of our faith walk is obedience to the Lord Jesus Christ. When we do that, everything else is given to us by the Holy Spirit inside of us.
Jesus is Lord. God bless you. ✝️💙🙂

Thanks Mr Allen Parr ❤❤
I got a good laugh out of the Clark Kent Theology, thanks!
Jesus is GOD in the flesh 1 Timothy 3:16
Mike Blume also in John 14 Jesus says He is the Father.
Larry Darnell Rembert III no that is wrong. Jesus nowhere says He is the Father. He says I and the Father are One. What scripture are you referencing?
THE BEAT by Allen Parr Greetings Brother Allen. I do not mean to spark debate but speak reason. John 14: 8 -9. Philip said to Jesus, " Lord, show us the Father, and that will satisfy us." Jesus replied, I have been with all of you for a long time. Don't you know me yet, Philip? The person who has seen me has seen the Father. So how can you say, ' Show us the Father'? ( God's Word Translation )
And if youll look up the translation of "one" in "I and my father are one" it means the number 1. Singular. ... not in spirit mission or purpose... its 1 as in ... one in the same.
So if Jesus is the same as God the Father, does this mean that Jesus was praying to Himself? You see how this interpretation could cause major theological issues? Jesus was clearly praying and communicating with His Father. They are two DISTINCT Persons coexisting at the same time as I have just proven. And no I don't see your response as debate, this is just a healthy discussion of which I LOVE to have with other believers. Let's continue this. This is good Larry!

But where is the verse in the bible that says that these three are one?
But of the Son [Jesus] he says, “Your throne, O God, is forever and ever, the scepter of uprightness is the scepter of your kingdom. 9 You have loved righteousness and hated wickedness; therefore God, your God, has anointed you with the oil of gladness beyond your companions.”
“For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.“
Isaiah 9:6
Bethany
Isaiah 53 just speaks Jesus
Is. 9:6 simply refers to the "Spirit of God" that would dwell WITHIN Christ. Note: "A CHILD...(a human being)...SHALL BE...(meaning--it hadn't happened yet)...and...BORN." Well, God was NOT "born." These titles, or designations were BESTOWED upon Christ because God (the Father) knew (because He's God) that Jesus would be "obedient "UNTO DEATH (the CROSS)." Bless you, and open your heart, Mr. Robidoux.
@C S The very name, "Christ" means the "Anointed-one." It was God the FATHER that "anointed" the Son. Question: What, according to Acts 10:38, did God "anoint" Jesus with? Scripture ALSO says, God (the FATHER) "gave" Jesus "All Power and authority." There are MANY more examples that CLEARLY illustrate Jesus is NOT GOD. God the FATHER is the One and Only "Holy Spirit!" There are NO MORE than ONE Holy Spirit! If we could JUST get trinitarians to understand THAT--the debate would be OVER! Oh well, the devil is clever, and cunning. It's gonna' be a fight ALL THE WAY TO HEAVEN! Ah, but it's WORTH it!! God bless you all.
@C S Amen!
Ray Gabrelcik Mary gave birth to the Sacrifice of God (man Christ Jesus.) In him God dwelled but limited himself (Phillipians 2 and Colossians 2:9.) Amen
then what are the different roles? i am not disagreeing with what you said, all three are one, so when we pray who do we pray to and for what, and if they have always coexisted, does this mean that Jesus always sat at the right hand of the Father? where was the Holy Spirit? and what about the name Jesus actually was Yeshua and was changed through greek, soooo when the angel appeared to mary did he say you will call Him Yeshua? or Jesus?
Allen does it say in scripture that Jesus is “God the Son” ?

Hello Allen Parr how are you doing brother in Christ ?
I also would say that they are three team members all doing work together as one whole team member
Hey am Richard and I would want you to clarify some statement for me
1. The word distinct refers to one being different in characteristics so therefore what do you mean they are distinct being
2. I would like you to defend the Us in Gen 1:26?
3. I believe God is one he only works or let me say manifest himself in three different ways at the same time of which makes me accept the usage of the word coexist
But i want to call your attention that God is One person and he manifested himself like I said earlier cos he has the power to
Or let me use these illustration to get it better He's similar to we Human in three manifestation which Body,Soul and Spirit but that does not mean we are three person we are one person
What am just bringing out in essence is that we need to carefully check the word we use in describing God
I for one do not accept the word personality because it literally means differences of which in the Godhead there's no difference just a Personality in three different manifestation at the same time
How is what we don't know because he's Great
And if it’s really confuse it’s not from God !
God it’s not the master of confusion but Satan itself inputs doctrines of confusion.
It's common knowledge that when you break down and compare even the smallest part of a simple thing it gets more wordy which some think it gets more complicated because the definition is more in length than the original.
The Word was God and became Jesus, a man in a servant body which made him no longer in his God material Spirit man body with his own Spirit of God within him thereby becoming no more a true God
After he successfully completed his servant work he was begotten of God as God as he had been from the beginning.
The Word had been with the God and the God revealed himself to Abraham as Almighty God to Moses as I AM, and Jehovah/Yahweh/LORD to Israel allowing no knowledge of the Word as Israel's God of worship.
As time passed the God realized his agreement (covenant) with Israel was inadequate (because of man's weakness in Israel) and prophesied of a coming New Testament (New Covenant) revealing the Word to be his equal as God but not while he came to fulfill the Old Testament covenant commandments.
God had sent the Word to make the foundation of the transition from the Old to the New to include the Word's equality with himself known which only began after the Word's resurrection from the dead begotten of God.
This seems simple enough.

Notice: One LORD/Jehovah/Yahweh is God/Elohim/Gods 'I (not we are) am the LORD' Exodus 20:2 'before me' Exodus 20:3, Deuteronomy 6:4 'Hear o Israel the LORD our God is one LORD'.
The Singular God, the LORD God/Elohim/Gods, is Elohim/Gods because he overcame the multiple gods/elohim, under one name, shown in action over the individual gods/elohim of the land of Egypt.

It follows the One God/Elohim/gods/elohim/'object of worship' of Israel was the One God who led them out of the land of Egypt Exodus13:21, 20:2, not the gods/elohim/'object of worship' who followed Israel out of Egypt, nor the One who was to 'save his people from their sins' Matthew 1:21 from which comes all Old Testament covenant commandments and passages which proclaim 'there is none else, no God beside him, he knows of no other God or Rock' that led Israel out of the land of Egypt out of the house of bondage' Exodus 13:21, 20:2. Yes?
The one mediator between God and man is the man Christ Jesus through his crucified flesh Hebrews 10:19-20 'having therefore brethren boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus by a new and living way which he has consecrated for us through the veil that is to say his flesh'.

The Creeds:
If Jesus died in 33 A.D. and the day of Pentecost was 50 days later. The day of Pentecost was a festival that took place 50 days after the Passover. That has Acts 2 taking place in 33 A.D., which would be the beginning of the church. How long after did the creeds come from that most churches follow these days?
I will quote the Encyclopedia Britannica on the Trinity “Neither the word Trinity nor the explicit doctrine appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Hebrew Scriptures: “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord” (Deuteronomy 6:4). The earliest Christians, however, had to cope with the implications of the coming of Jesus Christ and of the presumed presence and power of God among them-i.e., the Holy Spirit, whose coming was connected with the celebration of the Pentecost. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit were associated in such New Testament passages as the Great Commission: “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit” (Matthew 28:19); and in the apostolic benediction: “The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all” (2 Corinthians 13:14). Thus, the New Testament established the basis for the doctrine of the Trinity.
The doctrine developed gradually over several centuries and through many controversies. Initially, both the requirements of monotheism inherited from the Hebrew Scriptures and the implications of the need to interpret the biblical teaching to Greco-Roman religions seemed to demand that the divine in Christ as the Word, or Logos, be interpreted as subordinate to the Supreme Being. An alternative solution was to interpret Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as three modes of the self-disclosure of the one God but not as distinct within the being of God itself. The first tendency recognized the distinctness among the three, but at the cost of their equality and hence of their unity (subordinationism); the second came to terms with their unity, but at the cost of their distinctness as “persons” (modalism). It was not until the 4th century that the distinctness of the three and their unity were brought together in a single orthodox doctrine of one essence and three persons.
The Council of Nicaea in 325 stated the crucial formula for that doctrine in its confession that the Son is “of the same substance [homoousios] as the Father,” even though it said very little about the Holy Spirit. Over the next half century, Athanasius defended and refined the Nicene formula, and, by the end of the 4th century, under the leadership of Basil of Caesarea, Gregory of Nyssa, and Gregory of Nazianzus (the Cappadocian Fathers), the doctrine of the Trinity took substantially the form it has maintained ever since. It is accepted in all of the historic confessions of Christianity, even though the impact of the Enlightenment decreased its importance.”
There were seven ecumenical councils. That took place from 325-787 A.D. While the seventh council The Second Council of Nicaea’s whole purpose was to “affirm the use of icons and images”. Out of the seven councils, there was four creeds written. According to the world-wide church the first creed they follow they say comes from 150-180. While I can’t find the absolute date on that. The Encyclopedia Britannica says that “according to tradition, it was composed by the 12 Apostles, but it actually developed from early interrogations of catechumens (persons receiving instructions in order to be baptized) by the bishop.”
Then there came the Nicene Creed which dates from 325 A.D. I quote the Encyclopedia Britannica on this also which says “Until the early 20th century, it was universally assumed that the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed (the more accurate term) was an enlarged version of the Creed of Nicaea, which was promulgated at the Council of Nicaea (325). It was further assumed that this enlargement had been carried out at the Council of Constantinople (381) with the object of bringing the Creed of Nicaea up to date in regard to heresies about the Incarnation and the Holy Spirit that had arisen since the Council of Nicaea. Additional discoveries of documents in the 20th century, however, indicated that the situation was more complex, and the actual development of the Niceno-Constantinopolitan Creed has been the subject of scholarly dispute. Most likely it was issued by the Council of Constantinople, even though this fact was first explicitly stated at the Council of Chalcedon in 451. It was probably based on a baptismal creed already in existence, but it was an independent document and not an enlargement of the Creed of Nicaea.
The so-called Filioque clause (Latin filioque, “and the son”), inserted after the words “the Holy Spirit,…who proceeds from the Father,” was gradually introduced as part of the creed in the Western church, beginning in the 6th century. It was probably finally accepted by the papacy in the 11th century. It has been retained by the Roman Catholic, Anglican, and Protestant churches. The Eastern churches have always rejected it because they consider it a theological error and an unauthorized addition to a venerable document.”
Then came the Chalcedonian Creed written in 451 A.D.
Then came the Athanasian creed, which took place in about 500 A.D.
So if Jesus died in 33 A.D. and the birth of the church happened 50 days later, how many years is that between the birth of the church and the full revelation of the Trinity? Yep you got it over 467 years! And to the council of Chalcedon in 451 which is 418 years!
Friends don't take some fourth century invention, when reading your Birthday Bible. The Apostle's only knew of One God, not in 3 person's! 3 manifestations which God Almighty can manifest all at once! That's what being Omnipresent is all about!
Quotes from trinitarian historians, and secular Historians:
Jude says in 1:3 “Beloved, while I was very diligent to write to you concerning our common salvation, I found it necessary to write to you exhorting you to contend earnestly for the faith which was once for all delivered to the saints.”
Dr. W. R. Matthews said in his book “God in Christian Thought and Experience page 180” “the doctrine of the Trinity … formed no part of the original message. St. Paul knew it not, and would have been unable to understand the meaning of the terms used in the theological formula on which the Church ultimately agreed.”
Emil Brunner wrote in his book “The Christian Doctrine of God” that “Certainly, it cannot be denied that not only the word "Trinity", but even the explicit idea of the Trinity is absent from the apostolic witness to the faith.”
September 9/10/1990 Mark A Noll wrote in “Christianity Today” a article titled the “Doctrine Doctor”. He wrote about a historian Jaroslav Pelikan that the article says “has written a history of the Christian tradition on a scale no one else has attempted in the twentieth century.” It also reported that this man “The Library of Congress has awarded its annual John W. Kluge Prize in the Human Sciences to Yale University historian Jaroslav Pelikan (along with French philosopher Paul Ricoeur). The $1 million award focuses on those academic disciplines not covered by the Nobel prizes and has only been awarded since 2003.”
Mr. Pelikan said that "For those who believe that you don't need tradition because you have the Bible," he reflects, "The Christian Tradition has sought to say, 'You are not entitled to the beliefs you cherish about such things as the Holy Trinity without a sense of what you owe to those who worked this out for you.' To circumvent Saint Athanasius on the assumption that if you put me alone in a room with the New Testament, I will come up with the doctrine of the Trinity, is naive.”
Walter Martin said in the 1985 debate on the “John Ankerberg Show” “The eternal son is a heresy created by Origen in 230 A.D.”
He also said in his book “Kingdom of the Cults” “The Scripture nowhere calls Jesus Christ the eternal Son of God, and he is never called Son at all prior to the incarnation, except in prophetic passages in the Old Testament. The term "Son" itself is a functional term, as is the term "Father" and has no meaning apart from time. The term “Father” incidentally never carries the descriptive adjective “eternal” in Scripture; as a matter of fact, only the Spirit is called eternal (“the eternal Spirit” in Hebrews 9:14), emphasizing the fact that the words Father and Son are purely functional as previously stated.”
Robert L Reymond said in his book “The Justification of Knowledge: An Introductory Study in Christian Apologetic Methodology” “Now, no matter how one prefers to translate logos in this passage (word, account, esteem, ratio, reason, formula, debate, speech, deliberation, discussion, oracle, sentence), I agree with Gordon H. Clark when he writes, “Any translation of John 1:1 that obscures…emphasis on mind or reason is a bad translation.”
“The Wycliffe Bible Encyclopedia, Moody Press, Chicago, IL, Volume 2 pages 1046-1047 states”
“Many scholars have argued that the apostle John had this philosophical development (of the Greek philosophical LOGOS) in the back of his mind when he wrote the prologue to his Gospel and that he actually tried to impart some of these (Greek Philosophical) concepts. For a long time many have contended that the background of the fourth Gospel was essentially Hellenistic rather than Hebraic. In dealing with such an assertion we may note that studies in the Dead Sea scrolls have tended to confirm the traditional conservative position that the cultural orientation of the Gospel of John was Hebraic. Moreover, we must observe that John was a simple fisherman from Palestine … there is no evidence that he imbibed any Greek pagan philosophical orientation in John Chapter 1. If he intended to be philosophical in the first few verses, he certainly was not anywhere else. We may argue that John used the word ‘logos’ in its ordinary meaning.”
C. Pearl and R. Brookes wrote in their book “A Guide to Jewish Knowledge, pages 96,97” “Having affirmed the existence of God, Judaism really lays down only one basic idea about Him which is a recognised dogma - the Unity of God. ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is One.’ This is immediately a negation of the polytheism of the ancient world with its numerous deities. It is a repudiation of the idea that there are two gods or two creative sources of existence, one of good and the other of evil. It is also a clear denial of the idea of a trinity - three gods in One which is the established doctrine of Christianity. For Judaism there can be absolutely no compromise at all in this fundamental concept of the Only One God who is the ultimate creative source of all life and death, the elements of nature and history and the power behind all forces, physical and spiritual.”

Dr. Benjamin B. Warfield said in his book “Biblical Doctrine” that “The term “Trinity” is not a Biblical term, and we are not using Biblical language when we define what is expressed by it as the doctrine that there is one only and true God, but in the unity of the Godhead there are three coeternal and coequal Persons, the same in substance but distinct in subsistence. A doctrine so defined can be spoken of as a Biblical doctrine only on the principle that the sense of Scripture is Scripture. And the definition of a Biblical doctrine in such unbiblical language can be justified only on the principle that it is better to preserve the truth of Scripture than the words of Scripture. The doctrine of the Trinity lies in Scripture in solution; when it is crystallized from its solvent it does not cease to be Scriptural, but only comes into clearer view. Or, to speak without figure, the doctrine of the Trinity is given to us in Scripture, not in formulated definition, but in fragmentary allusions; when we assembled the disjecta membra into their organic unity, we are not passing from Scripture, but entering more thoroughly into the meaning of Scripture. We may state the doctrine in technical terms, supplied by philosophical reflection; but the doctrine stated is a genuinely Scriptural doctrine.”
Edmund J Fortman said in his book “The Triune God” that “The Biblical witness to God, as we have seen, did not contain any formal or formulated doctrine of the trinity, any explicit teaching that in one God there are three co-equal divine persons. Rather it contained the data from which a doctrine of this kind could be formulated. And it would take three centuries of gradual assimilation of the Biblical witness to God before the formulation of the dogma of one God in three distinct persons would be achieved.”
“The New Catholic Encyclopedia”, 1967, Volume 14, page 299: "The formulation 'one God in three Persons' was not solidly established, certainly not fully assimilated into Christian life and its profession of faith, prior to the end of the 4th century. Among the Apostolic Fathers, there had been nothing even remotely approaching such a mentality or perspective."
“The History of Christianity”, by Peter Eckler: "If Paganism was conquered by Christianity, it is equally true that Christianity was corrupted by Paganism. The pure Deism of the first Christians, (who differed from their fellow Jews only in the belief that Jesus was the promised Messiah,) was changed, by the Church of Rome, into the incomprehensible dogma of the trinity. Many of the pagan tenets, invented by the Egyptians and idealized by Plato, were retained as being worthy of belief."
Oxford University Professor J. N. D. Kelly: "During the first three centuries of its existence, the Christian Church had first to emerge from the [monotheistic] Jewish environment that had cradled it and then come to terms with the predominantly Hellenistic (Greek) culture surrounding it. ... "Most of them exploited current philosophical conceptions. . . They have been accused of Hellenizing Christianity (making it Greek in form and method), but they were in fact attempting to formulate it in intellectual categories congenial [suited] to their age. In a real sense they were the first Christian theologians."
“Dictionnaire Lachatre” "The Platonic trinity, itself merely a rearrangement of older trinities dating back to earlier peoples, appears to be the rational philosophic trinity of attributes that gave birth to the three hypostases or divine persons taught by the Christian churches. . . . This Greek philosopher's conception of the divine trinity . . . can be found in all the ancient [pagan] religions."
Encyclopedia Britannica (1976): "Such a Hellenization did, to a large extent, take place. The definition of the Christian faith as contained in the creeds of the ecumenical synods of the early church indicate that unbiblical categories of Neoplatonic philosophy were used in the formulation of the doctrine of the Trinity."
“The 15-volume Dictionnaire de Theologie Catholique”: "It seems unquestionable that the revelation of the mystery of the Trinity was not made to the Jews."
Jesus says plainly in John 4:22 “You worship what you do not know; we know what we worship, for salvation is of the Jews.”
Arthur Weigall, in his book “The Paganism in Our Christianity, p. 198” “"In the Fourth Century B.C. Aristotle wrote: 'All things are three, and thrice is all: and let us use this number in the worship of the gods; for, as the Pythagoreans say, everything and all things are bound by threes, for the end, the middle, and the beginning have this number in everything, and these compose the number of the Trinity.'"
Millard J Erickson “Christian Theology” (P. 321) “In the doctrine of the Trinity, we encounter one of the truly distinctive doctrines of Christianity. Among the religions of the world, the Christian faith is unique in making the claim that God is one and yet there are three who are God. In so doing, it presents what seems on the surface to be a self-contradictory doctrine. Furthermore, this doctrine is not overtly or explicitly stated in Scripture. Nevertheless, devout minds have been led to it as they sought to do justice to the witness of Scripture.”
W. Fulton “Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics” “The term "Trinity", is not found in the Bible. Theophilus of Antioch around 180 A.D. first used the Greek term trias (a set of three) in reference to God, his Word, and his Wisdom. However, Tertullian in 215 A.D. was the first one to state this doctrine using the Latin term, Trinitas (Trinity), referring to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.”
“The Story of Civilization”: Part III, page 595: "Christianity did not destroy paganism; it adopted it. From Egypt came the ideas of a divine trinity."
"The word triad, or trinity, was borrowed from the pagan schools of philosophy and introduced into the theology of Christians of the middle second century by Theophilus, Bishop of Antioch."-Bibliotheque Ecclesiastique, Dupin
“Nouveau Dictionnaire Universel”: "The Platonic trinity, itself merely a rearrangement of older trinities dating back to earlier peoples, appears to be the rational philosophic trinity of attributes that gave birth to the three hypostases or divine persons taught by the Christian churches.

Dr. Nathaniel J. Wilson "The Godhead". The best in depth explaination, and in the littlest time. I hope this helps! In Jesus Name, God Bless!
3 manifestations which God manifests all at once is the definition of the Trinity I am familiar with
Q. If I were to understand the Godhead in an earthly way, would it be like a family? A dad, a mom & a child, but they are all one family? Is that a picture of the Godhead?
No because if the child dies, you no longer have a family but a married couple.
"so that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in union with me and I am in union with you, that they also may be in union with us, so that the world may believe that you sent me" Jesus, God and Us are not part of a god head
Thank you very much for your sharing this video. Peace of Jesus Christ to all of you. Greetings from Indonesia ❤️🩹
Thank you Allen for delivering such a powerful message.. 🙏💯
The trinity makes so much sense because:
Whenever God wants to do something with his almighty he first wills it, then he does it. That’s how God always works, first willing something and then doing it.
For example: How does God make it that he is eternal. He does the following.
First God wills to be eternal and then he uses the power to realize this will.
so the commandment that God gave himself to be eternal has always existed, he never created it, it has always been there. He can’t just create the commandment to be eternal. Also, the power of God which implements this commandment that he is eternal has always existed, he never created it. He can’t just create the power that makes him eternal
So these things have always existed:
God, the word of God (Jesus) and the power of God that implements the word of God (Holy Spirit)
Only God is eternal because to be eternal you have to be omnipotent , that is why the word of God and the power of God that implements his word (Holy Spirit) are God.
That’s why the the Bible makes soooo much sense when it says
In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God.
It makes soooo much sense why there HAS TO BE three persons that are one God, and not only one person.
If there is an omnipotent being it has to be always triunion otherwise it can’t exist
Thank you For sharing God’s word to us
It’s fake
This wasn't God's words sister this message is of the devil. God isn't a trinity and anyone who believes that will be thrust into hell. I wanna ask u, is father a name? Or son a name? Or holy spirit? Those are titles not name the name who holds all those titles is Jesus the christ.
Dear Mr Allen , would you PLEASE answer my question about Holy Ghost being the Father of Jesus as in Matt 1:20
It is obvious that no answer would be forthcoming.
The holy spirit is God's power in action that made the transfer of an angel into a human form. Compare Philippians 2:7.
This may help.
Luke 1:35 In answer the angel said to her: “Holy spirit will come upon you, and POWER of the Most High will overshadow you. And for that reason the one who is born will be called holy, God’s Son.
@@jimjuri6490 Don,t you believe that there are THREE SEPARATE, EQUAL, EVER EXISTING PERSONS IN GODHEAD.
EACH ONE FULLY GOD WHO ARE IN PERFECT HARMONY. Yes? and that Gods POWER(holy spirit) transformed ANGEL in to HUMAN? right?
please help me understand
how can God the father , God the Son and God the Holy Spirit be three different persons and we have to believe equally, while still being one God? I just can't seem to understand this
