the trinity?

Question

i am being serious in this question and ask that no haters come on because i will delete your answer.

in my understanding of the trinity, it is that fact that the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost are all 1 being. But for example when Jesus is baptized by John the Baptist in the Bible, it clearly says that the Father spoke, the Holy Ghost came down in form of a dove, and obviously Jesus was there, (i can get my bible out later, i am at work)

can someone explain? i have always believed that they are one in purpose kinda like the spurs when they beat the cavaliers. one in purpose but seperate individuals

Answer 1

You said it well:

He is God the Father...
God the Son....
God the Holy Spirit...

One God who is eternally existant in 3 distinct Personalities....and never inferior to one another in nature

Read 1 John 5:7-8

Answer 2

Remember, the bible mentions that Jesus himself said, "The father is greater than I" (John 14:28). Yet, the belief of Trinity says that the Father and the son are "equally God".

Another interesting point is, that if they were both the same, would they not both be aware of the same information? Yet Jesus said “Concerning that day or the hour nobody knows, neither the angels in heaven nor the Son, but the Father.”—Mark 13:32.

One last point to highlight, is that the word "Trinity" never appears in the Bible.

Answer 3

The trinity is one of God's great mysteries.
I believe that God the Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are all God...they serve different purposes. For instance, when I go to work, I am still me. But when I am at work, I am an employee. When with my friends, I am there as being a friend. It's still me, just functioning in different ways.

When water is frozen, it becomes ice. Water can also evaporate and go into the air. It's all still water, just different forms of water. In this way, the Trinity is all still God, just different forms of God.

Hope this helps.

Answer 4

Friend the trinity theory came in through the Catholic system in around 312 to 325 AD, There is ONLY ONE SPIRIT, ONE LORD, ONE FAITH, ONE GOD, Many thinks Jesus was God, let me say, My God has never died, Can you see this earth 2000 yrs ago, as the trinity people want to believe, That if God is dead, Then satan would have the power to not let Jesus raise again. God is a Spirit & remember there is only One spirit, God was never flesh, You have God working in 3 offices or manifestation of the same Spirit, You have this one spirit as God the creator, Then God comes down as you say after John Baptized him at age 30 & not before, & baptize Jesus with the Holy Ghost, too many trinity people think Jesus the flesh was God, & that God was in Jesus before he was baptized, How blind can they get, They can read all of this themselves, but they refuse to acknowledge that God did NOT dwell in Jesus until Jesus was baptized. So now you have God in Jesus reconciling the world back unto himself, Then On the day of Pentacost, you have God coming down to fill his people with the baptism of the Holy Ghost, That is God's 3 manifestation of the self same spirit

Answer 5

The Father and the Son Jesus have seprate bodies, but one in nature, which means they think alike and in agreeement with each other. The Holy Spirit is what dwells in all believers from God for us to have a relationship with God. Jesus sits at the right hand side of God interceeding on our behalf. Jesus is gergous.

Answer 6

The Christians stole the concept from the Pagans...
The Trinity is--- Maiden, Mother, Crone....

Delete me, get your Bible, it doesn't matter..
I am right and I have more proof than you could poke a stick at...

The Bible was made up of many Pagan religion practises over many years....
Do you wish to challenge me ???
I have a very extensive library and I also have your book of hate...
Blessed Be...)O(

Answer 7

Yes you're right.Just like us composed of one but in three persona,the flesh,the soul or living breath from God and Spirit that will face during the final judgment.

Answer 8

They are all God. It's like an apple. One part is the skin, one part is the pulp (white part) and one is the core. All the apple, all working together.

Answer 9

all 3 in one
He spoke with his dad as an emample for us to follow
He also wanted them to know the comforter would come to them

Answer 10

The Christian concept of the Trinity once seemed strange, perhaps even contrived, to me. How could something be three things that are one and one thing that is three? But the Trinity made sense to me once I came to believe in God, to recognize Him in Jesus Christ and to know the part of Him within me. My understanding of the Trinity, and belief in its truth, grew as I came to see that the universe itself reflects the three-in-one nature of the God who created it.
Water as solid, liquid and vaporMatter
Matter has three states, solid, liquid and gaseous. Each element is a single element, but it takes on different forms or manifestations under different conditions.
Three primary colors give white lightLight
Any color of light can be formed from the three primary colors. Light that appears as white, the purest of all, does not exist by itself but is the equal combination of red, green and blue light, and is a manifestation of three colors in one.
Three dimensions in spaceSpace
The space of our universe has three dimensions. You cannot define a point in space without using three dimensions, and yet that point is one.
Time in past, present and futureTime
Time in our universe has three dimensions that are found in past, present and future, yet it is a single continuum and only exists in the present.
Three primary forces of natureForces
There are three physical forces known to control all interactions in matter: gravitational, electromagnetic and nuclear. The Unified Field Theory seeks to identify one set of laws that describes all these forces as different manifestations of one force.
Atoms
The atom defines the most basic unit of every chemical element in the universe. The word atom comes from the Greek word for "indivisible," yet while it represents the purest essence of one element, the atom has three facets, with the positively charged proton and neutral neutron at its core, and the negatively charged electron outside the core that balances its electric charge and interacts with other elements.
Trisecting a line as the basis for design in creationLife
The physical design of the human body, and that of many other life forms, is based on a relationship known as the Divine Proportion, or Golden Section. This proportion is based on trisecting a line such that the ratio of the small piece to the large piece is the same as the ratio of the large piece to the entire line. It is also found by solving an equation with three terms, x3 - x2 - x1 = 0.
Nature of man
The nature of man is expressed as mind, body and spirit, analogous to, and in the image of, the triune nature of God. It's interesting to note that Genesis relates man being made by "us" in "our" image when referring to God, indicating the plurality in His nature.
Life on Earth
Life on Earth inhabits three domains, the sea, the land and the air.
Holy Trinity
Following the three-in-one nature that is found throughout creation, we find the three-in-one nature of the One God manifested in the Holy Trinity, with each Being revealing a different aspect of our God and Creator to us:
The Father, the part of God that is transcendent, infinite and beyond our understanding,
The Son, Jesus Christ, the part of God that is immanent and appeared to us in the way that we could best know Him, in human form. He was both "Son of God," an expression of God as contained in human form, and at the same time "Son of Man," the ultimate expression of who we can be in our most divine form.
The Holy Spirit, the part of God that lives in the heart and soul of each of us, acting as our Counselor for those who believe and listen to His voice within us.
