Trinity

Dear Mr. Froese,Thank you for the prophecy book you sent; it has gone on hopefully to produce fruit after changing hands. It opened a window of understanding on the nature of the trinity of God, being three unique beings, yet one in love, purpose and plan. So many fail to know and appreciate this mystery of God the Creator, the Sustainer and the Savior.The only time I read about the Creator in His three unique persons was in Henry Morris’ The Bible and Modern Science. He had a chapter that mentioned this very thing. “In the likeness of God He created” was the topic, describing a God of wondrous unity, oneness, and power, fantastically glorious.To the young Jewish men thinking we worship three strange gods, they need to know that the Lord their God is One. But, oh, what that means from the fruit of the Old Testament! He has been the same God even to us. Your description of the European Common Market union of nations rang a bell to me; it sounds like the oneness God has. Unique, yet diverse as He is one in the nature of action in His agenda, government and plans. I can’t express it well, but maybe you see it too. Anyway, I hope people will learn what it means to be one in Christ, for Him to be one with the Father, and all of this due to His nature, power, and plan. “Hear O Israel: the Lord your God is One,” which says more than meets the eye. It’s like Him: powerfully glorious and mind-boggling. -B. Willig, IN


Arno's Answer:



Intellectually, we cannot explain the trinity. First Timothy 3:16 comes to mind, “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.” And Isaiah 9:6 reads, “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.” That child is “the mighty God.” In brief, Jesus is God.
