  • Juphil on Genesis 1:26 - 9 years ago
    read the following verse 27- God created them n0t They created them for God is One. When we read Luke 1:19, means He is talking to the angelic hosts,

    I agree with you, Juphil. God is not three in one. He has always been and will always be One. Throughout the Bible, God has presented himself as One. ( I Timothy 3:16; Isaiah 43:10; Revelation 1:13; Revelation Chapter 5,etc) In fact, He has said if there was another God--He did not him( Isaiah 43:11) When God created man, there was only one other being that possessed His image and likeness--angels. While the Bible says that God counsels Himself, There was no Trinity Present in Creation. In the beginning, was the Word, and the Word was with God and the Word was God. God cannot be separated from his Word--the same way we cannot be separated from our words. Our words define who we are. God gave dominion to mankind. Therefore, man is responsible for the mess that man has created. Perhaps one of the greatest commandments was "Hear o Israel the Lord our God is one Lord. Jesus is God in human form. Jesus said "I have manifested thy name ( John 17:6) Jesus is not God Jr; He is exclusively God.

    If I could use some of your Scripture references: 1 Tim 3:16 speaks of the mystery of Godliness. What was it? That God came in the flesh. Who was He/What was His Name? You know the answer. And indeed it was Jesus Who was preached unto the Gentiles. Isa 43:10: "..before Me there was no god formed, neither shall there be after me. Amen to that, that our God is from Eternity to Eternity & beside Him there is no-one else. Jesus is certainly not another god formed, He IS God's Word come in the flesh ( Jn 1:1-14). Rev 1:13: "..like unto the Son of Man". Left with this description, we could be wondering, but v18 qualifies the Man: "I am He that liveth & WAS DEAD.." Likewise with Isa 43:11: "beside Me there is no Saviour", Yahweh was Israel's Saviour. Heb 1:2: "..His Son..heir of all things, by Whom He made the worlds": the Word's creative work. Not 3 gods.
