Q: saw a short video (Christian/Muslim debate) today, & am not on either side, but would like clarity from Christians on this.  So Jesus is God... but he prayed to himself to be saved from death....and raised himself from the dead.... but the idea makes zero sense to me... help ??? A: This helps clarify: God is three Persons but of one Nature.  God's attributes are identical to His essence(1) Jesus the Word, sent by the Father to earth, who then [by Jesus] sent the Holy Spirit to believers [to indwell them](2). 3. So the Son (begotten by the the Father who sent him from Heaven to put flesh on & called Jesus, as therefore the Son) can talk/pray to the other members of the triune Godhead. As 100% God but also now 100% man too, he is able to talk to God and pray to Him. See God was fine within the trinity to enjoy each other's presence prior to creating man. God is eternal and was never created. He always existed. So they can fellowship among each other and didn't need...

Who is Jesus' God? Here is the summarized answer: As who? God himself or as Human?  Jesus [also known as "the Word" prior to his incarnation] is OF the triune Godhead from eternity. He along with the Father and Holy Spirit ALWAYS existed. After creating the world (and at the right time)...The Word came to earth and "took on" human flesh, [born through a woman], in order to be the Savior because God calls for mans blood [everything points to Calvary] and wrath to fall on someone [see OT sacrifices "shadow example"] but the real deal had to be human. Thus God put on flesh and became a man. The perfect sinless man. The 2nd Adam. To be the propitiation for our sins. The 3 are equal and of the same essence and nature [perfect].  However "in the plan of redemption", because Jesus was sent from God and put on human flesh [became the GodMan> 100% God and 100% human] he therefore "had to submit in his humanity" to the Father -and humbly...

Q: What is the position within the Godhead. Are all three equal or is Jesus eternally subordinate?  This is a very good question that needs to be answered so you do not fall into heresy.  Understanding the unity within the Trinity   This will explain this very well to keep you in biblical truth about the Trinity.  Jesus subordination was only while on earth as the God-man for the purpose of man's salvation. He was sent forth from the Father, on mission, thus the Son of God. You can look into that more later. Each person of the Godhead has a dedicated role in regards to mans redemption. As God the being , The Father, Word and Spirit are equal, and One.

When a JW tries to deconstruct the Trinity, and you point to many scriptures, but looking at the John 1:1 reference they stumble over what their cult taught them and don't see what is plainly in the Bible. You can in this instance use their altered Bible to defeat their own argument. Hopefully God will open their eyes and lead them to truth as well as out of that cult and unto biblical Christianity. JW Objection: The Bible says the Word was with God, and JWs say that only would refer to those who were created by God as "sons of God", including all the angels, Jesus himself, and Adam, are to a JW evidence of God creating Jesus. JW Error Corrected: To prove Jesus is God is very simple. Have read Heb 1 that is pretty conclusive evidence. Also notice what she did there, it was a bait and switch, she never dealt with John 1:1 Let her read the original Greek from the JW kingdom interlinear the verses in Colossians where you can clearly see that they [JWs] added the word ...

Intro:  4 ways God reveals himself to mankind  WHO IS GOD? What does God reveal to mankind in the Scriptures about himself?  God reveals Himself to humans through His Word (the Bible) and through His Son (Christ Jesus). The more we study the Bible, the more we come to understand God’s characteristics, the qualities He possesses. As mortals, we struggle to grasp the power and majesty of the God who has created time, space, matter, and all life. “As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts” (Isaiah 55:8).  A few things we will see once we understand more about God is that God’s faithfulness leads us to trust Him. His grace prompts gratitude in us. His power incites awe. His knowledge causes us to ask Him for wisdom (James 1:5). Ultimately because you now understand more about God it leads people to properly revere and conduct themselves in holiness and honor (1 Thessalonians 4:4–5).(1) There are man...

The Trinity  Genesis 1:26 "Then God said, “Let us  make mankind in our image, in our likeness...." Jesus said, "Truly, truly, I say to you, we speak of what we know, and bear witness to what we have seen, but you do not receive our testimony." John 3:11  For there are three that record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit: and these three are one . 1 John 5:7 God is three Persons in one essence; the Divine essence subsists wholly and indivisibly, simultaneously and eternally, in the three members of the one Godhead—the Father, Son (also known as The Word), and Holy Spirit. Christians know who God is. We know YHWH is a Trinity. Yes. 3 persons in One. We have a Title for Him as ONE called " God" . God is the same in nature essence and being. Equally the same. Not like created humans, who are sinners, seperated from one another and not interconnected. GOD is not fully understandable, however... He has chosen to reveal a lot a...
