Trinity

<< < (2/4) > >>

Deborah-Leigh:
Jesus said:

"I will NOT leave you bereaved [comfortless], I am coming to you [in the form of the comforter and spirit of truth]" (Jn 14:18).

Now notice how clear Jesus makes this. Who or What is this spirit, holy spirit, holy ghost, spirit of truth, comforter? Is it really the third person of a triune God? Let Jesus Himself answer:

"IN THAT DAY [the day when the comforter comes] you shall know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I IN YOU" (Jn 14:20).

"Now the consoler [comforter], THE HOLY SPIRIT, which the Father will be sending IN MY NAME, that will be teaching you all, and reminding you of all that I said to you" (Jn 14:26).

"I am going, and I AM COMING TO YOU" (Jn. 14:27).

JESUS CHRIST BY MEANS OF THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD WHICH HIS FATHER GAVE TO HIM IS THE COMFORTER. THE GREEK PROVES THAT CHRIST IS THE COMFORTER!

In the Greek, the "comforter" or consoler is translated from parakleetos. Now, is there any Scriptural proof that Jesus Christ is called "parakleetos?" Yes there is. In I John 2:1 we read:

"And if anyone should be sinning, we have an Entreater with the Father, Jesus Christ, the Just."

In the King James it says we have an "advocate" [with a small "a"]. King James ALWAYS capitalizes the Greek word "parakleetos," so why don’t they capitalize it here? You see, "advocate" or a better translation "Entreater" is translated from the GREEK WORD "parakleetos!"

HERE IS PROOF POSITIVE THAT JESUS CHRIST IS THE "PARAKLEETOS!"http://bible-truths.com/trinity.html

Hi Eileen,

My understanding as what the church believes the Trinity to be is 3 different persons.  All three are eternal, each one is almighty, none greater or less than another, each God, and yet together being one God.

Here is early 20 century art of how the church pictures this to be, it says it all.



mercy, peace and love

Kat, you hit the nail on the head! I think that is almost 100% accurate on what the trinity is all about.

Ray is strongly against this and so are the scriptures. Praise God for His mercy and grace.

In Christ,

Alex

David:
I remember reading about the trnity for the first time in a study Bible. I got realy confused because not only was the word "trinity" not to be found anywhere in the Bible, just about everything Jesus Christ said totally contradicted it.
I'm suprised the Catholic Church hasn't decreed that the trinity is now a quartet, with Mary being added to the equasion as well.

Deborah-Leigh:
Huh! :D  As far as I know they HAVE put Mary into equality with Christ using the miracle of turning the water into wine as their evidence that the Mother is equal to the Son of GOD so we can go to her instead if we find we cannot manipulate the son to turn our waters in wine too!  That is where all the Majagoria apparitions have been getting their nurturing into deception while Satan appears in the disguise of Mary turning whole towns into new tourist attractions. What a twist of deception that is.

Peace to you

Roy Monis:
Hi! Eileen

What is the Trinity doctrine? God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit; three equal and totally separate individuals making up the Godhead. Ray quotes the Word of God and asks; who is Jesus' father? The God the Holy Ghost or God the Father? The Scriptures say;  "Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: when His mother Mary had been betrothed to Joseph, before they came together she was found to be with child by the Holy Spirit......But when he had considered this, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, “Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take Mary as your wife; for the Child who has been conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. (Matt.1:18,20).

The choice is yours. Who are you going to believe?

God bless.

Love in Christ Jesus.

Roy.
