Godhead part2

17 Nov

Godhead Study Cotinued

The Son - came to do the Father's will and is coming again. Acts 1:11
The Holy Spirit -  came to convict the world and bring us closer to God.
John 16:7 - 13. The Holy Spirit does what Jesus tells him to do.
In the Godhead the 3 have different responsibilities but all in union.

In Genesis 1:1 God introduces himself as plural by using the Hebrew word 'elohim'.
Check #430 in Strong's concordance.
It means God is uniplural. Many but One.

Check also Isaiah 6:8 'who will go for us?'
Genesis 11:6 'one' Genesis 2:24 'one flesh' Hebrew word (Echad)
Genesis 3:22 'become like one of us'

We can see the unity of God coming together as one.

It's interesting that so many things are 3 in 1.
E.g. We have earth, sea and sky.
Matter is solid, liquid and gas ...... and many more examples.

Trinity: Oneness in unity not in number: Yachid vs. Echad
"Hear, O Israel! Yahweh is our God, Yahweh is one [Echad]!" Deuteronomy 6:4

Yachid vs. Echad: The most important verse Jews memorized in the Bible was Deut 6:4: "Hear, O Israel! Yahweh is our God, Yahweh is one [Echad]!" There are a few words in Hebrew that the Holy Spirit could have used a word the has one exclusive meaning: the numeric, solitary oneness of God ("yachid" or "bad"). 
Instead the Holy Spirit chose to use the Hebrew word, "echad" which is used most often as a unified one, and sometimes as numeric oneness. For example, when God said in Genesis 2:24 "the two shall become one [echad] flesh" it is the same word for "one" that was used in Deut 6:4.

  1. We serve one God. AMEN

    For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.
