Trinity

I really like your (Professor Brouwer) explanation of the trinity, when you say that you are a father, a husband, and a friend all in different contexts, but there is just one problem with that explanation, you are not only a father to your children, but you are also father to yourself, but that the same time, a…

Observing Ellie Wiesel’s words expressed as “I had ceased to be anything but ashes, yet I felt myself to be stronger than the Almighty, to whom my life had been tied for so long,” point to the pain and suffering that the speaker offers. Humans that go through unfathomable suffering know the excruciating pain when they go through it. At the same time, it is an echo of three different perspectives. First, the words delineate the enigmatic pain signifying death and suffering; second, it suggests…

The Bible doesn 't actually say "we are to live 'heaven to earth '". There is no literal verse in the Bible explicitly stating that. We know there are topics in the Bible that are not explicitly mentioned (i.e. the Holy Trinity). For example, the Trinity is not a term that can be found in the Bible, but it can be proved with other verses that speak specifically to the fact that God the Father, Jesus (the Son), and the Holy Spirit are equally God and all possess the attributes of God…

At the root panic disorders, anxiety, depression, or even suicidal thoughts, is often the painful seed of emotions such as guilt, remorse, and regret.

Every year during the month of June the lottery is held, one person is carelessly selected to be stoned until death by the villagers.

a human Jesus of Nazareth could suffer and die on the Cross. Dr. Hall and H. Richard Niebuhr rightly point out that the fixation of the North American Church creates an almost “Unitarianism of the second person” of the Trinity almost completely wiping out the theology of the Trinity without actually doing so or stating it clearly. The relationship between God and Jesus is of profound importance to Dr. Hall just as the relationship between Jesus and humanity is profoundly important. It is this…

God, Isaiah 11:2 “The Spirit of the Lord will rest on Him, The spirit of counsel and strength, The spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.” II. The Deity of the Holy Spirit a. I believe the Holy Spirit is fully divine and is a part of the Trinity. The Holy Spirit is no lesser then the Father and the Son. In the early church, they accepted the divinity of the Holy Spirit. In Matthew 28:19, “…make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of…

The world was created by who? Science, God or its self? All these questions are asked everyday by people who do not want to believe there is a magnificent being up in heaven. I would not say I never thought exactly like the way these people think but because of my encounter with the God, I am able to believe there is a supreme being. According to the biblical view, God is the creator of all things here and is to come. The animals, tress, sunlight, darkness, and most importantly humans. (Genesis…

righteousness, for what the law could not do, God did by sending God’s Son into the world (Maachia). In order to receive this justification, this grace of God one must be believer and one must understand the Trinity (Father,Son, Holy Spirit) all run hand in hand. By having faith in the Trinity and understanding all three persons play a significant part in justification, one will experience that “newness” to their own life. Readers are informed that in the first couple of chapters of Galatians,…
