1.I believe that the Lord our God is One God.
2.I believe that there is the Father,Son,and Holy Ghost.
3.I believe that these are three different entities.
4.I believe that these Three must exist in order for God to fully exist in man.
5.I believe that there is One God in heaven, But in order for us to receive the fullnes of God we need all Three parts (or stages) of Him in our lives.That is why we are to be baptized in the name of the Father,Son and Holy Ghost.

Asked yourselves, Can I do without God? Can I do without Jesus? Can I do without the Holy Ghost? And the answer is no we cannot maintain our walk with God without all Three. When we have All Three in us. God becomes One in our lives, just as He is One in Heaven and Earth.

How can all of this be you might ask? He alone is God and He alone can do this.

I remain open to your scripture

teasergirl, How can you not believe in Matthew 28:19 ?

Yes I believe in this, that my God is one, yet He is also three , sometimes I think we get so bogged down in trying to understand what is beyond our understanding we waste too much energy worrying about it, and not just celebrating the joy we have in being a loved by God.
Maybe I'm being naive, but I am not a theologian, and don't have as big a knowledge of the Bible as so many of you have, but I think sometimes we get so caught up in the theological things we lose sight of the simple truth.
God loved us enough so sacrifice his Son for us, and His gift of eternal life is so simple to accept, the only condition being that we live as He would want us to, knowing that - as humans - we will fall, yet ALWAYS there to forgive us and help us.
That is where the three aspects of God come in to it.
We need Jesus, to better understand just what God is like, and we need the Holy Spirit, as a teacher and guide.
All three are separate, but all parts of the one God,
SO - we are back to the start again. See? this is where you can so easily run round in circles getting nowhere..

I'm a bit sad Teasegirl that you don't believe in Matthew 28 verse 19, for without accepting all three aspects of God, how can you know Jesus? and how can you learn without the Holy Spirit to guide and teach?
I hope my answer wasn't too simplistic for you.....
God bless....

Teasergirl you've got the revalation sis
that's it we ARE baptized in the name of the father, son , and holy ghost! And what's the name? JESUS deut. 6:4 says hear o isreal the Lord our God is ONE Lord! John 1:1 has been quoted here all day Jesus is God manifest in the flesh! He is Father in creation, Son in redemption,and the Holy Ghost in regeneration BUT He needs a name! The Jehova
of the old testement IS the Yeshwa (God with us) or Jesus of the new! Jesus told the deciples if you have seen ME then you have seen the father! John 5:7 says there are 3 in heaven that bear witness the father the word and the spirit AND THESE 3 ARE 1

I have to disagree with you on those points. There is One God who exists, has always existed and will always exist in a triune Godhead (See John 1:1). He does not exist as three entities; He is One God with three natures (the intrinsic or essential character of somebody or something), the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.

To suggest that He is three is Polytheism. I am not saying that the Trinity is easily explained, it is not because we are finite creatures attempting to describe an infinite God.

What you are suggesting sounds like “Oneness” or “Oneness Pentecostal” doctrine. That doctrine is Christ-like but it is not Christian. Orthodox Christianity at its core is founded on the divinity of Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah and God incarnate on earth. Any other definition would make His life, death and resurrection moot for only God can act to provide man Salvation.

A few verses directly reference the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit:

• Matthew 28:19: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" (see Trinitarian formula).
• 2 Corinthians 13:14: "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with all of you."
• 1 John 5:7-8: "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one." (This is the controversial Comma Johanneum, which did not appear in Greek texts before the sixteenth century.)
• Luke 1:35: "The angel answered and said to her, "The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you; and for that reason the holy Child shall be called the Son of God."

How on this planet would you probably believe anybody might don't forget the truth that they have no idea probably the most solutions to this universe is an issue on your allah? The perception that allah created the Soul is quite simply absurd seeing that there is not any riskless proof for this kind of God. The 3 portents for instance in which Muhammad explains the primary meal in heaven and why a baby appears just like the mum or dad is simply simple dull so why might anybody take any of this critically? If there used to be a truly writer of the universe I can warranty you that the simpleton portrayed within the Koran and the Hadits via Bukhari point out allah would now not probably had been that writer. Now do not move crying approximately loss of recognize; it's you that don't recognize us, coming right here anticipating us to fall for the nonsense you proselytize!

I can relate with your beliefs but i cannot agree with all of them. Yes there is only one God but not three different entities, that does not agree with your first statement that there is but one God. Maybe you could explain it another way.

God manifest himself in the form of the Holy Spirit, Jesus and Jehovah but all these are one and the same.

I do not believe in baptism in the name of the titles father, son and Holy Ghost as these are not names.

I believe in Baptism in the name of Jesus which bears the title of the father, the son and The Holy Spirit. Acts 2:38; St. John 17:20; Colosians 3:17

I totally agree that we cannot do without God.

God bless you

I like to explain it like this:

When God made man, it was in three parts. He formed a 1) body from the elements of the earth, he breathed into it a 2) spirit and man became a living 3)soul.

So man touches three realms, physical, mental and spiritual. Each has a different purpose and is governed by different rules. Each of those three parts is a "person", and each is just as much "you" as either of the others.

So God appears as a person in each of those realms. In the spiritual (heavenly) realm he is God the Father. In the physical realm he came as God the Son, Jesus. In the hearts (minds) of men he dwells as the Holy Spirit.

Three different "persons" who form One God. Able to manifest in every part of our lives, and to work in every one of the realms of reality that we touch. So, like you stated, we can not do without any of them.

All of the beliefs you stated in your question, while are valid, do not describe my God/Goddess, Divine Being, whatever you wish to label the all knowing mystery as.

I believe that God is Everything or God is Nothing...Simple as that.

Blessings To You All
Blessed Be
