ArchivedJesus: The Son of Man or The Son of God?The word "trinity" is not used in the bible, but the concept of the trinity is. Again, the trinity is not three gods. The bible teaches that the Father is God, but then the Father gives authority to Jesus(Jesus does not give the Father authority). In Hebrews 1:8, you see that the Father calls Jesus God, but that does not mean that Jesus is the God of the Father. That just shows you that the Father is giving Jesus authority to rule over us. I'm sure I gave you the King and the prince example before. So if you are looking for OT scripture that teaches there are three God's I cannot find it, because that is not what the bible teaches. The OT does teach however, that the Father would give authority to the One who will die for our sins. Finally, the Holy Spirit is not a god, but it is a characteristic of God. The Holy Spirit is part of God's nature. Without the Holy Spirit ALL Christians would be like the Pharisees. Relying on our own self-righteousness, being hypocrites, and trying to earn ou way to heaven when our good works are like filthy rags to God. We are to glorify God, not ourselves, lest any man should boast. We are not saved by good works, but we are saved UNTO good works. Meaning our good works would count for all eternity. |
