The Doctrine of the Holy Trinity is one of the foundational doctrines of Christianity.
Getting this right is the difference between being in a cult or not.
Lets explain in simple terms who God is as revealed by his scripture. Answering who God The Father is, or the who the Son is, or who the Holy Spirit without teaching God is three in one is heresy. In other words to not understand who the Holy Spirit is or who Jesus Christ is or Who God the Father is, would be to not understand who God is. They are One being in Three persons. This is challenging for some to understand as we are one being in one person, God is not. He teaches us so about his nature in Isaiah 55:8-9 where he tells us of himself and how we lesser than him completely.
People often use another analogy that although interesting fails to encompass the nature of God. People will say God is like an egg, you have a shell, a yoke, and the egg white, but the problem with this is:
The egg white, yolk, and shell can exist without the other and are separate in nature, which fails to encompass God.
God is beyond the limitations of a simple analogy. There is no real analogy one can use of anything in creation for God is above creation.
Many other analogies such as a three leaf clover fails in the same way. If you remove one of the pedals, you still have a clover and the other two. With God, this is impossible. He is fully one monotheistic being that subsists in three persons.
What can the bible teach us about God?
#1 : There is only one Monotheistic God.
[Deuteronomy 4:35; 39; 6:4] [Isaiah 43:10; 44:6; 45:5-7] [John 17:3] [Romans 3:30] [1 Corinthians 8:4]
#2: That God is the great I AM, who is the only God, and worthy of all praise and worship.
[Exodus 3:14] [Isaiah 45:5]
#3: God is Perfectly Holy and Immutable and is Triune in nature existing in Three persons.
[Genesis 1:26-27] [Isaiah 48:16] [Exodus 3:14] [1 John 5:7] [1 Peter 1:2] [Matthew 28:19] [John 14:26] [John 15:26]
What does the bible say of the Trinity?
God the Father, God The Son, God the Holy Spirit are all God.
God has scattered all throughout scripture mention of his being as Three in One. When he describes himself to the inquisitive Moses asking who he is, God responds famously with “I AM THAT I AM” which when understood through the original Hebrew it translates as “I am He who is” or “I am He who exists” (TWOT Reference: 491) Exodus 3:14 gives us the picture of who God is and the Trinity all in one place.
““And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.””
When examining this verse, we see:
“I AM” is mentioned three times
“I AM” literally translates here to "I Am He Who Exist".
Another way to understand this verse using the understandings of the words “I AM” in context (hāyâ) you could render this verse as: "I AM HE THAT EXIST, THE ONE WHO IS, and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel. HE THAT IS hath sent me unto you"
I AM, I AM, I AM… What we can simply gleam from this is: God, is God, is God.
The Persons of God
God the Father is fully God he is the creator, the sustainer of all.
Jesus Christ is fully God, he is the word made flesh, the promise of God the law fulfilled.
The Holy Spirit is the same Spirit from the Old testament that is Fully God, and is our intercessor here on earth and dwells within us.
God consists of the Father, The Son, and The Holy Ghost.
Each Person [Hebrew 1:3] is co-equal in Authority, Power and Glory, and is Co-Eternal and Immutable in being, co-identical in nature, all Three persons exist from everlasting, from all eternity. Each person is God who is One in Three persons and lacks nothing either from or apart from another. God is Holy and Perfect in all of His attributes without blemish. God the Father is fully God, Jesus Christ is fully God, The Holy Ghost is fully God, and not one exists without the other nor can one be separated from one another as they are one.
God is the great I AM, Three in One. Each person of God has a specific subsistence
God the Father is God, The Holy Spirit is God, Jesus Christ is God, who was being obedient to the flesh unto death, who is the propitiation of our sins. [Philippians 2:8] [2 Corinthians 5:21] [1 John 2:2]

Can the souls of the wicked simply cease to exist in Hell? Annihilationism says yes, but Scripture says otherwise. When Christ declares in Matthew 25:46 that the wicked go into "everlasting punishment" using the very same word (aiōnios) that He uses for "life eternal" in the same sentence, there is no hermeneutical ground left to stand on for a temporal Hell.
Scripture sets a clear pattern, truth is established by two or three witnesses. From Deuteronomy 17:6 to Jesus sending disciples two by two, the Bible teaches us that ministry is always done in two or more qualified leaders. This teaching surveys Old and New Testament examples, explains why the rule protects the Church, and shows how obedience strengthens doctrine, accountability, and fruitfulness.
This Statement of Faith outlines all positions we hold as a ministry. We aim to provide you with an outline of Doctrines that hold true to the Biblical Text. In no way does it surpass or replace that of Scripture, or your need to study the Scriptures, so that you have no need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth as it says in 2 Timothy 2:15.
Theological Determinism, or Calvinistic Determinism is something that while prevalent in the Church today, cannot actually be substantiated by scripture. Many have help up their hands, “determined” that even though their theology makes no logical or rational sense, it is still true. We show why you do not need to abandon reason and logic, in order to understand doctrine and truth.
Have you ever wondered if you can hear the voice of God. Is God speaking to you and giving you secret and hidden revelation? Find out by reading this article.
Have you ever wondered if the cherished traditions surrounding Christmas align with God’s Word? Most Christians celebrate the holiday with joy and sincerity, yet few stop to examine its deeper origins. The truth is, many beloved Christmas customs: from the evergreen tree to Santa Claus, trace back to pagan rituals and occult symbolism.
The Roman Catholic Church claims to be the one true Church of Jesus Christ. But what does the Bible actually say about its doctrines? What does history say about its fruits? Christ himself gave us the test in Matthew 7:20: "Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them." In this teaching we examine the official doctrines of the Catholic Church against Scripture verse by verse, and walk through nineteen centuries of documented historical record. The evidence is not ambiguous. Come and reason from the Scriptures together.
Have you ever wondered if Christmas is even Biblical?
Where does Christmas even come from?
Does Christmas originate in pagan traditions?
Is Christmas truly a Christian holiday?
Was Jesus actually born on Christmas day?
We answer those questions and more in this comprehensive teaching on Christmas.
Not everyone who calls Christ Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven. Jesus made this terrifyingly clear in Matthew 7:21-23, and He said it to people who prophesied, cast out devils, and did wonderful works in His name. This teaching examines the doctrine of true and false conversion through 12 parables of Christ, a 17-year testimony of false conversion, and the uncompromising weight of scripture. Examine yourself whether you be in the faith.
Have you fallen prey to this insidious Gospel presentation that says all you need to do to be saved is just believe?

Perhaps you are a regular Christian who simply wants to be equipped with proper theology in these last days? If so then this was written for you.

Allegories such as The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis, Pilgrims Progress, and games such as Kingdom Hearts can come with a danger of associating all things in it with Biblical Truth. Not all things presented offer an accurate depiction of what the Bible plainly says, and there can run a danger to the individual who replaces time meant to be spent in the Bible and in study of God, with allegories that can include unbiblical things.
Have you ever wondered about The Gift of Tongues? What about Prophecy and Healing? Does God still heal today? And can we still speak in tongues?
In simple terms the Narcissist Gospel is a false Gospel that focuses on the person instead of the work of Jesus Christ. In other words a person views Christ’s death and resurrection as the payment for theirs sins while also denying the fundamental other half of the Gospel itself.
In the end times how will be able to tell who is who? Will Christians be deceived into following the AntiChrist instead of Jesus?
