So jesus is not God again.

God is not a man or human being.. Number23 :19, and he does not change his mind either... So the new testament is roman fabrication to make mockery of God and deceive..
God is one and is the totality of the consciousness of the universe personified... Not a Jewish man up in the sky.. And not a sky daddy.. The yoruba calls him olodumare, the igbo as Chukwu, the Bini as osanobua the jews as marduk.. (the use the title of Lord most times) etc.. Same principle different nomenclature

"Christ, according to the faith, is the second person in the Trinity, the Father being the first and the Holy Ghost third.

Each of these persons is God. Christ is his own father and his own son. The Holy Ghost is neither father nor son, but both.

The son was begotten by the father, but existed before he was begotten--just the same before as after. Christ is just as old as his father, and the father is just as young as his son.

The Holy Ghost proceeded from the Father and Son, but was equal to the Father and Son before he proceeded, that is to say, before he existed, but he is of the same age as the other two.

So it is declared that the Father is God, and the Son and the Holy Ghost God, and these three Gods make one God. According to the celestial multiplication table, once one is three, and three time one is one, and according to heavenly subtraction if we take two from three, three are left. The addition is equally peculiar: if we add two to one we have but one. Each one equal to himself and to the other two. Nothing ever was, nothing ever can be more perfectly idiotic and absurd than the dogma of the Trinity."

So basically, God is not a person but a group of people. Like how the soccer players on a pitch can be 11 people but just one team? This means that every interaction “with God” is actually an interaction with one of the 3 people that make up “Team God”?

If so, why did God pretend to be a single person rather than a team of persons throughout the Old Testament and most of the New Testament? If the trinity is so fundamental to the nature of God, why is it not clearly explained in any of the 66 books that God allegedly inspired?

Sigh. God IS one person. Jesus partakes of God's divinity because Jesus is the Word of God.

If Jesus is part of an Eternal God then that means Jesus is Eternal as well.

If God is worthy of obedience, then His Word (Jesus) is also worthy of obedience.

If God is holy and righteous, then Jesus being the Word of God is also holy and righteous.

The same criterion applies to The Holy Spirit.

We as Christians believe that Jesus is uncreated, the Holy Spirit is also uncreated in the same way that God is.

The Trinity has been there right from the book of Genesis. When God said "Let US make man in OUR own image", who do you think he was talking to?

1) "Yahweh produced me as the first of his works... when there no oceans, I was given birth... then I was the craftsman at his side"
Prov 8:22-30.

Jesus was begotten as the first of Yahweh's creation.

2) "He was with God at the beginning"
"No one has ever seen God, but the only begotten son who is at the Father's side has made him known" John 1:18.

The son said he was at his Father's side, therefore, His Father spoke to him " Let us make man in our own image"

3) Don't come & lie that Jesus is God himself unless U wanna deceive yourself that at a period in time, men saw God & therefore, Jesus who said "no one has ever seen God" has lied.

4) "in beginning was the word and the word was toward the god and the word was a god". (source : John 1:1 wikipedia ) Many bible versions rendered it so. Don't come here & lie about it).
More importantly, don't come here & lie that the word was the god, unless U have deceived yourself that U are actually your Father who had begotten U.

5) Don't come here & twist the definition of begotten unless U wanna deceive yourself.
(U are begotten by God your creator or by a man,your father).


6) Don't come here & lie that God came in the flesh.
Because 1st Tim 3:16 authentic rendition "He appeared in the flesh" is NOT the KJV forgery that "God was manifest in the flesh"

7) Don't come here & lie that God , son & holy spirit are one because 1 John 5:7 KJV is a well falsified addition not in other Greek manuscripts older than the textus receptus (KJV was translated from the 16th century textus receptus). Matt 28:19 is a weak assumption on which to build a man made fallacy.

How is Tom,Dick & Harry one?
Shalom.

So many people are confused and they think Christians worship three 'Gods'; God the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost.
Please what is your understanding of the Trinity?
Happy Sunday!


I understand that trinity is not in the bible.
