Ray, on 12-24-07 was the first time I ever read any of your written communications. I reviewed some of the mountains of information you have written on your understanding of the Bible and would like to ask a very important question, “are you teachable”.Would you consider yourself teachable by someone who is not scholarly ? If you would honestly answer in the affirmative , I would ask the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob to reveal to you any of his truth found in the next few paragraphs.
The following concerns your dissertation on the trinity and your quote “these are a few reasons why I don’t believe in the trinity theory.” In Geneses 1:28 Then God said "let Us make man in Our image according to Our likeness . . . . . and 1 Thessalonians
5:23 “------- and may your whole spirit, soul, and body ----- . ”, these two partial
verses implies the tri-unity of God and the tri-unity of man. In John 1:1 “ In the beginning
was the Word ----------.”, in the finite realm of man a word is expressed by : (1) being
formulated in the mind [FATHER], (2) animated with the tong and mouth [SON], (3) air
exhaled across the vocal cords [HOLY SPIRIT], with out all three working with one accord
no word could be understood.
Jews and Christians holy book is the Bible, they both worship YHVH (Yahweh) the great
“ I AM ” in the Old and New Testaments. The holy land is Israel, the holy city is Jerusalem
and they are both waiting for the same Messiah --- “ Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” ( Isaiah 9:6 ). Symbolically Solomons Seal ( Star of-
David ) and the Cross of Jesus are compatible in more ways than most people realize.
To many believers in Christ (Hebrew word messiah) the Seal of Solomon represents the
intertwining tri-unity of God with the body, soul and spirit of man. A tetrahedron can
symbolize four facets of God simultaneously with the base representing Jesus on earth
in space and time.
God exists outside linear space and time and is able to survey the past, present and future
at the same time . In Michael Gullen’s book “Bridges to Infinity” he wrote, “According to
Einstein, the universe is a 4-D space-time manifold, because three space coordinates and
one time coordinate are required to map it ---- Because one of its four dimensions is time
the universe is not a purely spatial 4-D world ---- A person in a purely 4-D world exists at
all locations simultaneously.”
To understand the concepts above, one could be seated in a movie theater watching a drama unfold on the big screen. The 3-D (width-height-time) characters on the screen can in no way interact with the 4-D audience but the drama’s screenwriter watching would know the whole story from beginning to end. In some ways, man is like the characters on the movie screen and God is in another dimension not far from each of us.
A simple mathematical example can demonstrate the tri-unity of God. Take three pennies and lay
them side by side on a table top; man counts: 1+1+1=3. Now, take the same three pennies and stack them on top of each other; God counts: 1x1x1= 1 to the 3rd power, the power of FATHER,
the power of the SON, the power of the HOLY SPIRIT and these
Three are ONE.
These are a few of the reasons why I believe in a Triune God.
Sincerely Al
Dear Al: Yes, I am teachable, but I assure you that you have nothing to teach me. I read your email--what a CROCK. Have YOU read your email?
What a hodge-podge of convoluted unscriptural NONSENSE. "The mind is the Father; the tongue and the mouth is the Son; and vocal cords is the Holy Spirit." "A stack of three pennies equals the trinity." "A tetrahedron can symbolize four facets of God simultaneously with the base representing Jesus on earth
in space and time." Where do you come up with such foolish and unscriptural nonsense? Give me a break.
God be with you,
Ray
