So God cant control the Son and Spirit?

2018-11-02 03:29:14 UTC  

God is the trinity

2018-11-02 03:29:24 UTC  

use the term Father to avoid confusion

2018-11-02 03:29:24 UTC  

So its 3 beings representing one?

2018-11-02 03:29:36 UTC  

it's three divine persons with an indivisible essence

2018-11-02 03:29:45 UTC  

This dosent even seem like Christianity from my pov

2018-11-02 03:30:18 UTC  

Can you show me a verse about them being completely separate entities?

2018-11-02 03:31:09 UTC  

Because my current belief is that God is whole. He isnt a nuclear of energy, he is one. The son and holy spirit *are* God and God *is* the holy spirit and the son. God is a being, not a representation.

2018-11-02 03:31:24 UTC  

the father, son and holy spirit are God

2018-11-02 03:31:31 UTC  

and yes

2018-11-02 03:31:43 UTC  

church history and verses coming up

2018-11-02 03:31:54 UTC  

or rather verses im too lazy to supply so much dogma

2018-11-02 03:32:06 UTC  

As im not catholic, ill take the church dogma with a grain of salt

2018-11-02 03:36:15 UTC  

we'll use Isaiah 43:10 and 1 Corinthians 8:4 as a clear exemplar of one God, there is no contention here by anyone

we'll use John 6:27, Romans 1:7, and 1 Peter 1:2 as divinity of the father

John 1:1-3, Hebrews 1:2, Titus 2:13, and Colossians 1:16-17 as divinity of the son

and finally Acts 5:3-4, 1 Corinthians 3:16 as divinity of the spirit

2018-11-02 03:36:25 UTC  

there are always more examples but these are good exemplars

2018-11-02 03:36:31 UTC  

I found this: “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD” Deuteronomy 6:4

2018-11-02 03:36:40 UTC  

yeah

2018-11-02 03:38:19 UTC  

the Shema does not imply that the trinity is not real

2018-11-02 03:38:29 UTC  

it is saying that YHVH is God

2018-11-02 03:39:09 UTC  

Lol why the fuck cant they just say he shape shifts lmao

2018-11-02 03:39:27 UTC  

Hebrews 1:2 seems to imply that the Son is not eternal, he was created by God.

2018-11-02 03:39:34 UTC  

Shape shifting merchant on a stick

2018-11-02 03:40:53 UTC  

he has spoken to us __by his Son__, whom he appointed __heir of all things__, and through __whom also he made the universe.__

2018-11-02 03:40:54 UTC  

Pebble, 1 Corinthians 3:16 and Hebrews 1:2 both seem to imply that the Holy Spirit and the Son are *owned* by God and that they were created by God.

2018-11-02 03:41:10 UTC  

They do not imply that

2018-11-02 03:41:26 UTC  

John 10:30 and John 17:21-22 are also good

2018-11-02 03:42:00 UTC  

John 10:30 implys that, yes, they are one.

2018-11-02 03:42:04 UTC  

One being.

2018-11-02 03:42:08 UTC  

Not seperate.

2018-11-02 03:42:24 UTC  

Yes they are an indivisible essence

2018-11-02 03:42:29 UTC  

but the Son could never be the Father

2018-11-02 03:42:32 UTC  

but they are God

2018-11-02 03:42:44 UTC  

The Son *is* the Father and the Father *is* the son

2018-11-02 03:42:58 UTC  

Thats how much absolute divinity God has

2018-11-02 03:43:07 UTC  

He has no logical contstraints

2018-11-02 03:43:07 UTC  

that's not how it works

2018-11-02 03:43:31 UTC  

The three existing separately and having self-consciousness separate from the others means one is not the other

2018-11-02 03:43:36 UTC  

the Father would not experience temptation of man

2018-11-02 03:43:39 UTC  

"Remember the former things of old: for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me…” Isaiah 46:9

2018-11-02 03:43:50 UTC  

thank you for the monotheistic verse

2018-11-02 03:43:57 UTC  

the father would not experience temptation of man
