An Understanding of the Trinity
                                                        Blog #44 - 2/28/2020

1. The Father is God. Paul says, "...for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things
    came and for whom we live..." (1 Corinthians 8:6, NIV).

2. The Son of God. We see the fundamental nature of God in Jesus. John called Him the Word and he
    was with God in the beginning ...without him nothing was made...(John 1:1-3, NIV). The "...Lord
    of lords, who alone is immortal..." (1 Timothy 6: 15-16, NIV). Jesus claims equality with the
    Father. He said, "I and the Father are one" (John 10:30, NIV).

3. The Holy Spirit is God. Isaiah referred to "...his Holy Spirit..." and "the Spirit of the Lord...
    (Isaiah 63:10 & 14, NIV). Peter said to Ananias "...you have lied to the Holy Spirit...You have not
    lied just to human beings but to God" (Acts 5:3-4, NIV).

"The eternal triune God reveals Himself to us as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, with distinct personal attributes (characteristics), but without division of nature, essence (something that exists) or being."
