What does the Bible say about the Trinity?
The Bible points to this concept of the Trinity by establishing many things that we CAN understand about God: There is one God—and only one. Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Corinthians 8:4; Galatians 3:20; 1 Timothy 2:5 Actions are associated with the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit—sometimes as separate persons at the same time.
What religions believe in the Trinity?
The doctrine of the Trinity is accepted by all “mainstream” branches of Christianity (Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, Protestant and Anglican) and in fact is one of the major defining factors for what is considered mainstream.
What passages of the Bible refer to the Trinity?
Matthew 3:16-17 16 As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and alighting on him. 17 And a voice from heaven said, “This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.”
Does the Bible support “the Trinity”?
The Word Trinity Is Not In The Bible. There is no scripture in the Bible that says that God is composed of three persons. We know that Jehovah/Yahweh is the one true God and this was clearly taught in the Old Testament to distinguish the True God from false gods.
What Scripture supports the Trinity?
The Bible teaches that the Father is God, that Jesus is God, and that the Holy Spirit is God. The Bible also teaches that there is only one God. Though we can understand some facts about the relationship of the different Persons of the Trinity to one another, ultimately, it is incomprehensible to the human mind.
What are the different roles of the Trinity?
Unlike H2O, however, the persons of the Trinity relate to each other in a living and vital way. Generally speaking, within the Trinity, God exhibits three roles: God the Father initiates and plans, God the Son executes the plans, and God the Holy Spirit applies the plans to believers.
