Answer 1

Father, the son (Jesus) and Holy Spirit, they are one but divided into three.
Like God have 3 Jobs, 1 to create the world, 2 to save the human and 3 to give the human a spirit

Answer 2

I don't understand why this question seems to be so difficult to people. First of all, you have to understand we are talking about a person/power who was able to create anything, just merely by speaking it into existence. So why does it seem impossible that he couldn't be 3 things in one?

I will give you several examples that I have heard although I have no difficulty understanding this.

In an EGG you have a shell, the egg white and a yolk. They are three separate things but they all consist of the egg.

Also you have an ice cube. It consist of water/liquid in the beginning. When frozen it is a cube, nevertheless, it is still water. As it is heated it becomes steam,,again though, it is still a form of water.

So God, the so-called nucleus of the whole world, the center the being, the existant creator, chose to put flesh on him and become a human. That did not take away from the fact he was still God.

After death, that Human became a Spirit. The Comforter. A third person....meaning a third part of God....the Creator. Does that make the nucleaus disappear? Be weak? No, the whole person, which is God still exist although His spirit walks among man here on earth.

Eventually our spirit and our non-corruptible body the Lord will give us will be reunited with our Spirit when Christ comes.

The Bible says when God created man He breathed into man the Spirit fo Life. That is why you are alive. God created you but no-one can live unless God allows the Spirit of Life to be breathed into their nostrils upon birth. You have only been given life because God breathed life into you upon birth. That's why humans are 3 in one beings also. We have a body, a soul (heart), spirit.

Our Spirit is what will live on reunited with a new incorruptible body....that is a body that will never die....at a later time in life.

Why couldn't He resurrect himself? He was watching the whole thing, from His Heavenly home. It was just a fleshly creation of Him.

Hope this explanation makes it clearer to you.

Answer 3

Many volumes could be written on this topic. Although the Bible does not mention the term 'trinity', it certainly has the doctrine of it established.
I will start off with a metaphor. Imagine God(all 3 persons) as all the water on the earth. Some of the water is liquid, some is solid (ice), and some is gas (invisible vapor). It is all water and yet has 3 distinct forms. Each has a different role in the water cycle yet all are in perfect balance. If you have one kind of water you can know the characteristics of the others.

Also, keep in mind that we cannot undersand all that God is. We can only see what He has revealed to us. I do not believe we will fully understand the concept of the trinity while we are on earth. However, the concept is certainly biblical.

Answer 4

May the peace, blessing and mercy of God be upon you

Due to the mercy of God upon me, I know this
[005:072] Surely, they have disbelieved who say: "God is the Messiah Jesus, son of Mary." But the Messiah Jesus said: "O Children of Israel! Worship God, my Lord and your Lord." Verily, whosoever sets up partners (in worship) with God, then God has forbidden Paradise to him, and the Fire will be his abode. And for the polytheists and wrong doers there are no helpers.

[005:073] Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "God is the third of the three (in a Trinity)." But there is no god (none who has the right to be worshipped) but God alone. And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall on the disbelievers among them.

[005:074] Will they not turn with repentance to God and ask His forgiveness? For God is Oft-Forgiving, Most Merciful.

[005:075] The Messiah Jesus, son of Mary, was no more than a Messenger; many were the Messengers that passed away before him. His mother [Mary] believed in the Words of God and His Books (see Verse 66:12)]. They both used to eat food (as any other human being, while God does not eat). Look how We make the Ayât (proofs, evidences, verses, lessons, signs, revelations, etc.) clear to them; yet look how they are deluded away (from the truth).

I won't even go into the concept of trimurti in hinduism....

Answer 5

I believe the facts, not man-made doctrines or dogmas...

"You alone, Jehovah, are the God above all other gods in supreme charge of all the earth." (Psalms 83:18)

Answer 6

There are 3 Persons in 1 God. Father, Son and Holy Spirit. They all share the 1 nature - God or the Divine nature. They all act together and in full knowledge of eachother.

The Son took on human nature. This means He was now both human and Divine.

God raised Jesus from the dead, but as Jesus is both human and divine, then in a way, acting as God, He raised Himself.

Confusing I know. But that's how it is.

Cheers :-)

Answer 7

God is everything. He creates everything. I would imagine that He is a spirit, who created a man to do his will on Earth. Bad analogy, but sort of like when you make a robot fall over, and then pick him back up. You "told" the robot what to do, and that was Christ's calling. God could resurect him, because He was God. I'm not sure if that helps you. Of course, even in heaven, we might not have the divine priveledge of finding that out.

Answer 8

He did it like this:

Hebrews 1:6 And again, when God brings his firstborn into the world, he says,
"Let all God's angels worship him."
7 In speaking of the angels he says,
"He makes his angels winds,
his servants flames of fire."
8 But about the Son he says,
"Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever,
and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom.

Answer 9

tuberoot, your reference in Romans is not clear. The word theos was also translated god small g at other times. You are reading the interpreters theological position which agrees with yours but is not confirmed by the rest of scripture.

Answer 10

1 Cor 12::4-6 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit. There are differences of ministries, but the same Lord. And there are diversities of activities, but it is the same God works all in all.

God is one but He manifests in three persons the Father who is in charge of activities, the Son who is charge of ministries and the Holy Spirit who is in charge of gifts.
