Isn't the beliefe of father, son, and holy spritit as the holy trinity against the first commandment?

Question

Not trying to make a point or anything. Just curious.

Answer 1

I am a practicing Roman Catholic. We believe that the answer to your question is no. What Catholics teach and believe is that the Three (F,S, & HS) are three people that make up one entity. It's one of those great mysteries that one accepts on faith.

Answer 2

The Holy Trinity as stated in the Tesalonic Edict by POPE Damasus , 380 AD , explain that any person who doesn't beleive in the Trinity of the Father , The Son , and The Holy Spirit , ANATHEMA SIT (Latin for cursed) ,and so in every province (in the Roman Empire) who shall not do so , be put to DEATH. The "trinity" is not an Scriptural or Divine Inspiration since we can not find it ,
or even prove it , neither the word can be found in The Bible.

Answer 3

Nice way to understand it yourself. This is a good analysis...if you think about it. If God said not to worship anyone else but him...how can there be 2 other people we can worship? I think you make an interesting point. It is anti-biblical to believe that God is 3 people...to even think that...is just...illogical. There are FAR to many texts in the Bible that prove otherwise...and only but 1 or 2 that can explain the Trinity, considering the word TRINITY is not even in the Bible but began with Constantine...who was trying to attract pagans to christianity.

It's not a mystery that it's inexplicable for others...it's just...impossible for God to be 3 others. Then He's not the ONE TRUE God now, is He?

Answer 4

Not really, thus comes the analogy St. Patrick used, the clover. They have 3 parts to them, but they are still one. If you worship a clover you are still including the 3 leaves of it. If you worship just one leaf, you have to include the clover still. So, the whole Father, Son, Holy Spirit thing isnt supposed to contradict the 1st commandment.

Answer 5

Not really. You see the Father would be God. The Son would be Jesus. And the Spirit is a like an angel I think. Yeah check into that one for yourself but you got the first two.

Answer 6

Ofcourse,, first comandment says,

1- "Thou shalt have no other gods before me. (From the KJV Bible, Exodus 20:3)"

me here refers to God the father. because trinity is not a God, its Godhead. God is one, not three in one.

If God is the Father and also the Son, then He would then be the Father of Himself because He is His own Son. This is illogical!

A person can think of a Father, he can think of a son, he can think of holy ghost, but he cannot think of a being who is the result of superimposing all three

Jesus is called the "Son of God" in the Bible, he is never called "God the Son", which is what the Christians have made him into due to their Trinitarian theology. Jesus pbuh never talk about trinity. The Bible does not support the Christian belief in trinity at all. The word "Trinity" does not exist anywhere in the whole Bible, but it is mentioned in the Glorious Qur’an

In Surah Nisa chapter 4 verse 171
"Say not ‘Trinity’: desist:
It will be better for you for
Allah is one God."
[Al-Qur’an 4:171]



Quran says in Surah Maidah chapter 5 verse 73
"They do blaspheme who say
Allah is one of three
In a Trinity: for there is
No god except One God.
If they desist not
From their word (of blasphemy),
Verily a grievous penalty
Will befall the blasphemers
Among them."

==========================

HOPE THIS ANSWERS.

notice the word "alone" in the following verse if BIBLE.

"Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself; [Isaiah 44:24]

Alone means alone,

Answer 7

no, He is one God in three persons He is spirit and beyond our limited understanding, He says thou shall have no other Gods before me. But He, Himself says He is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. So it's not against the first commandment that by the way, He gave us.

Answer 8

this is actually a really good question. after thinking about it i realized that the whole "only beliveing in one god" commandment does kinda contradict the whole trinity thing. but then i was like well wait.. arent they supposed to represent the same form//belief but only divided into different forms that christians are taught to believe in. We know god from the bible and he is on earth in spirit and we were once on the earth with the son but in truth all of them lead to the same god and belifs. soo no =]

sweet question tho. peace.

Answer 9

No sweet heart. The new testament begins the reign of Christ. God..the father Christ the son and the holy Ghost

Answer 10

I really like (sarcastic...) the Christian's math--- 1 (God) + 1 (Jesus) + 1 (The Holy Spirit) = 1.
HAHA, not!
It equals 3, so obviously there are 3 different beings. Only if you want to believe in that.
I don't believe in God.....Jesus.....of a "Holy Spirit" so that solves all of it for me.

Answer 11

You are exactly correct. There are places where the term "Holy Spirit" is mistakenly referred to as "He" and other places where it is correctly referred to as "It". John 1 verse 32, John 3 verse 8, and I Peter 1 verse 1.
