Judge
Lawgiver
King

Answer 1

Perfect, to my desires, because there are many trinities you can find and manifest then to your self and into others, and that to me is at lest one purpose in life we should all humans practice to perfect our self and the world. its wonderful to see the good of God growing within Humanity. God bless.

Answer 2

This scripture, taken by itself, does not teach that God is three persons in one. If we were to presume that the mention of three necessitates the teaching of a trinity, then when we read of "Peter, James and John" at Matthew 17:1, we would we forced to believe that these three apostles make up a trinity, yes? Or, when we read of faith, hope and love in 1 Corinthians Chapter 13, do we presume that these three things make up a trinity?

Answer 3

The ancient concept of divinity was different than ours, and to really understand how one thing can have three manifestations, you really need to read some Plato, Aristotle. The Greeks and Romans believed that a single being or object could have multiple aspects to it. For example, for Plato, he used the word "logos" and an ideal form. Meaning being physical object is a conceptual aspect. Let me put it this way. Think of a statue. Picture in your head. Now, I will do the same. If you were to describe your statue to me, would it be the same as mine? No, the differences would be endless. My statues could be made of Bronze, yours marble....etc. So despite the differences, is yours any less of a statue than mine? No, not at all. To Plato, this conception of an object without the constraint of physical forms was the ideal form, he called it "logos" often translated as "word." The Bible itself calls Jesus the "logos" made into flesh. Jesus is this ideal God, made into man. He is both God, and he is man. The are the same. The holy spirit is God made into the connection between God and Man. The Holy Spirit is the link and messanger. But it is fully God. I know, its complicated. Many books have been written about this very subject. Pick up some works by St. Anselm.

According to the bible in Isaiah 42:1 Jehovah spoke about a servant that he choose one of his sons , he has a lot of sons in heaven (Job 1:6 , 2:1 and 38:5-7) and are servants of God (Hebrew 1:7) the bible also call these servants gods (Psalms 82:1-6) he sent one of this sons, which one the first one (colossians 1:15-16)

Answer 5

Not really, (to me anyway). Rather it shows that God makes the laws, God judges according to that law, and He is King over all.

There are better scriptures in Isaiah for the Trinity. My favorite being Isaiah 48:16,

"Come near to Me, hear this: I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; From the time that it was, I was there. And now the Lord GOD and His SPIRIT Have sent ME."

The Holy trinity is not divided up this way. But God does play all these roles.

Interesting find. It's amazing how many analogies like this are in the Bible, and how many center around numbers.
