God exist as a TRINITY.
When I first began to study the Bible years ago, the doctrine of the Trinity was one of the most complex problems I had to encounter.
I have never fully resolved it, for it contains an aspect of mystery.
Though I do not totally understand it to this day, I accept it as a revelation
of God.
~ Billy Graham
trinity Triangle
The truth about the Trinity is shown by the Bible’s teaching that...
God is ONE.
Father, Son, and Spirit are all called God.
The Father is Called God
Jesus is God
Holy Spirit is called God.
Father, Son and Spirit are Distinct from one another.
Jesus is distinct from the Father.
The Spirit is distinct from the Father.
The Son is distinct from the Spirit.
The conclusion is: God is one being, but he exists in three persons.
Father, Son and Spirit are all one.
Father, Son and Spirit are distinct persons.
The Trinity… on God… Three persons
Anyone who deny’s the Trinity is denying one of these truths about God.
Glimpses of the Trinity
God speaks of Himself as “US” in four places in the Old Testament.
Gen 1:26; 3:22; 11:7; Isa 6:8
All three persons were involved in Creation.
The Spirit - Gen 1:2; The Father - Heb 1:2; the Son - Col 1:15-16
The Spirit
The Father
The Son
We are Baptized in the name of the Father, Son and the Spirit.
All three persons were at Jesus Baptism.
Mark 1:10-11
All three persons were in Jesus Birth Announcement.
LUKE 1:35
All Three persons were the power behind the Resurrection.
Paul’s prayer in 2 CO 13:14
Jesus promise to his disciples in John 14:16-17
Theologically, understanding the Trinity keeps us from adopting an inadequate and wring view of God.
It prevents us from seeing Jesus and the Holy Spirit as less than God.
It prevents us from seeing Jesus and the father as the same person… they are separate, but one.
It prevents us from thinking of God as three Gods.
Personally, understanding the Trinity is a reminder of the majesty and mystery of the God who gave himself for us on the cross.
When you ask for Salvation, the Spirit convicts (john 16:8) the Song sacrifices (Heb 10:10) and the Father gives (John 3:16).
Everytime you pray… the Spirit communicates (Rom 8:26), Jesus intercedes (Rom 8:34), and the Father answers (John 16:23-24)
Relationally, understanding the Trinity shows us that God in his very essence is relational.
Before he created us, there was a perfect relationship between the Father, Son and Spirit.
He did not need to create us to have someone to relate to, he had a perfect relationship.
We're like the fourth grader who was asked by his parents on the way home from church what he had learned in Sunday school.
He said, "We learned that Moses was sent by God to be the general to deliver the Israelites out of Egypt.
He went down there and organized them into an army and led them out to the edge of the Red Sea.
There he ordered his corps of engineers to build a pontoon bridge across the Red Sea.
When all the people of Israel had passed over on the pontoon bridge, the Egyptians tried to follow.
When they got out into the middle, the Israelites blew up the bridge, the Egyptians were drowned, and the Israelites escaped."
His parents were a little suspicious of this story and said, "Is that what the Sunday school teacher taught you?"
And the boy said.
"Well, no, not exactly.
But if I gave it the way she told it, you'd never believe it!"
God is an awesome God.
God is absolutely SOVEREIGN.
Sovereign is not a word we use a lot today.
The idea that someone is absolutely incharge is different that our minds can comprehend.
It’s different than being a president who has the Congress or the Courts to keep you in line… It’s like the King or Queen of England a few hundred years ago.
Sovereignty does not mean we are chess pieces in a chess game.
God is sovereign but is also able to give us genuine choice.
God’s sovereignty means that His will is going to be done… sometime with us and sometimes in spite of us.
Sovereignty refers not to God's attitude but to the reality of who he is.
God is not someone with a dominating personality; he is a person who is absolutely dominant.
God is not controlling; he is in ultimate control.
God does not need to take charge because he always is in charge.
1.
He is greater than and exist above his creation.
He is TRANSCENDENT.
He is greater than time.
He is greater than Place.
He is greater than Circumstance
Put as dot on the paper.
Star at it.
God looks at human history as you are looking at that dot.
He sees it all at one time.
Nothing surprises God.
Ps. 139:2-4
God is not surprised by anything that happens.
2.
He never needs permission or help.
He is ALL-SUFFICIENT.
As much as God loves us, we must remember.
God does not need us.
He is all sufficient.
He did not create us because he was lonely and wanted company.
He didn’t create us to do work on the earth.
He created us as an act of his love.
He does not choose us because he could not get things done without us.
He is not limited in any way, even though he chooses to use us.
3. God can do anything He wants.
He is ALMIGHTY.
56 times the Bible uses the phrase… Almighty One.
Have you noticed that God’s plans don’t alway fit into your schedule?
Planning is good, but we must ALWAYS remember… God is in Control.
Review of some of the words we are using about God.
Holy
Holy does not mean God is picky or judgmental or "holier than thou."
