The concept of ‘Trinity
God’ is not so easy to understand. Because of its complicity, there have
many cultic and heretic doctrines created about the concept of trinity. As a
result many different denominations had theological dispute over this issue.
And many Christian communities had divided. It is the key doctrines that we
have to understand. Without the clear understand of trinity we cannot
understand the true Christianity and other doctrines which can lead us wrongly.
Therefore, the doctrine of trinity is the basic fundamental doctrine of
Christianity.
TRI mean three and NITY
means one. So Trinity means three in one. We call it Tryon God. It means
one God with three persons. For our easy understanding we can see an example,
such as water, ice and vapor are the three personality of same substance of
water. Though it appears to us in three different forms but it is one of the
same substances.
In Trion God the
three person has been possessing the same quality, quantity, power, position,
authority and with the same vision. But they are different in their functions
and they respect each other. Father God is Planner, Son God is executor and
Holy Spirit God is power giver. The three persons participated in creation. As
Genesis 1:1, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth”.
In Hebrew it (GOD) says ELOH(IM) which means Creator God. ELOH means
one God but IM is the plural in Hebrew. Thus ELOSHIM is a plural word.
In English it translated in singular God. Wherever Bible says God, it means
Elohim means plural God. Because when we say God it means the three God. As a
result, the three persons participated in creation. But their function is
different.
The Trinity God,
Father God as planner, the Son God as executor and the Spirit God was the power
giver. The Father God was active as the chairman of the committee. It doesn’t
mean that the father God was the highest. The chair has the equal power of
authority. In their committee it was decided that the Son God will be sent to
human world as the son was the real executor of the committee. He cannot do his
Job without the power giver the Holy Spirit. So whenever the Son God goes to
somewhere the power giver God always gives power. Jesus is the commander in
chief of the angelic forces the Lord of Host. As He is the Lord of Host the
Angelic Forces follow him. When you portrait Jesus he is the full of Holy
Spirit surrounded by angelic forces. This is the basic picture of Jesus Christ.
These three
persons of God give respect and they are humble to each other. They do not
speak for themselves. They all are so high in their humble mind that does not
speak for themselves. Beside that they witness themselves. Jesus came to this
world never call people that He is God or Son of God himself. Even when He
healing the sick people, though they represent him that He may be Christ, He
told those person not to tell others that He is the Christ. He expected Father
God rebuilds Son’s identity.
When Jesus
baptized at the river Jordon, God testify ‘Son
God’, Jesus at Matthew 3:17, And a voice from heaven said, “This is my
Son, whom I love; with him I am well please. Also Father God testifies Son
God at Matthew 17:5, “While he was still speaking, a bright cloud enveloped
them, and a voice from the cloud said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I
am well pleased. Listen to him!” It was the time of transfiguration
experience, Father God voice was heard by Peter, James and John that this is my
beloved Son.
As well as,
Jesus was the person who testifies ‘Father
God’. In John 3:16 He said, “For God so loved the world that he gave his
one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have
eternal life”. Jesus said Father God Sent me. Also at John 5:37, “And
the Father who sent me has himself testified concerning me”, he said Father
God sent me. Jesus says I will ask Father God to sent Holy Spirit, as John
14:16, “And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to
be with you forever”. Jesus ask
Father God to give His child the Paraclaitus holy spirit, as Acts 1:8, “But you will receive power when the Holy
Spirit comes upon you, and you will be my witnesses, both in Jerusalem and in
all Judea and Samaria, and to the farthest part of the earth”. After that,
the Holy Spirit was testifying Jesus to us.
Creator God and
the creatures are different. Creator God is higher than Creature and they
cannot be equal to the Creator God. That is why bible said our God is the Holy
God. Holy means separation. Our God is separate from creature. Actually top
leader of ELOHIM in relationship with creatures is Jesus the Top King. So we
call Him the King of Kings. So our job is to testify Jesus. And without the
Holy Spirit in our heart we cannot testify Jesus. Therefore, we have to learn
the ultimate respectable relationship among the three persons of God.
We should know who God
is before knowing the purpose of creation. Have to understand the 12 attributes
of the Trion God. There have 12 identity of the God that we have to meditate_
