The Role Of The Holy Spirit In The Trinity

THE Three Persons of the Trinity The Three Persons of the Trinity Brenda L. Reynolds Grand Canyon University: HTH-505 Systematic Theology February 23, 2011 The Three Persons of the Trinity The Trinity consists of God, the Father, Jesus, the Son of God and the Holy Spirit. The Christian faith recognizes there is one God and He is one with His Son, Jesus and the Holy Spirit. The purpose of this essay is to describe the interrelationship of the three persons

The Trinity is the word that we use to describe the nature of God. God consists of three simultaneous, eternal persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. God being simultaneous or existing at the exact same time as three different entities is one of the key concepts of the Trinity. These three Persons not only exist as one in the present moment, but will continue to do so with no end. The way they relate to each other is eternal and also unchangeable. The Trinity has always been, and will

Many would agree that the Trinity is one of the most complex and difficult of the Christian doctrines to fully understand. It is tough for many to process the complete meaning of the Trinity. Is it three different people? Are they all God himself? If we believe that God is “entirely other” it may make it easier to fully understand the concept of the Trinity and to answers these questions that numerous Christian’s have. Often, it is difficult for us to explain Heavenly concepts that we cannot physically

Doctrine of the Trinity The Trinity is a hard concept for the human minds to fully comprehend. Although the word “Trinity” is not mentioned in the Bible, there is evidence that God is three in one. Jesus’ baptism described in Matthew 3:13-17 references the Trinity. Matthew speaks of Jesus coming out of the water, the heavens opening, and describing the Spirit of God descending like a dove and a voice from heaven saying “This is my Son, whom I love.” Also, in Matthew 29:19 it says “Therefore go and

Is The Trinity, Really The Trinity? In Milton’s epic poem Paradise Lost the dual acknowledgement between the holy and unholy trinity is accounted for, while more emphasis is placed on the unholy trinity than the holy trinity. Though in the theological standpoint a certain trio stand outs above all others- the trio of the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit. The holy trinity is very symbolic in the Bible. In many instances it is referenced in the Bible about the Holy Spirit being one. In the book

The Holy Spirit is one of the most personal persons of the Trinity that we have the privilege to have within our lives. Through Jesus Christ our Lord and savior, we as Christians have been given a gift that we do not even know the full extent of. John 16: 5-15 is one of the few passages within the gospels that give an introduction to the gift we are given through the departing presence of Jesus Christ from the earth. From this passage, however, questions still arise about the role and functionality

Introduction “Would God have chosen to reveal himself to us as the one God who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, unless he knew that this would be important to our understanding of him and of our faith? Must it not be the case that God cares greatly that we “get it,” that we see him for who he is?” This is the very heart of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit: Relationships, Roles, and Relevance, by Dr. Bruce Ware, who serves in various key facets at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville

available and not find the word Trinity even once in any language. Certainly the concept, when compared to any other, is revolutionary in nature. Everything about God is revolutionary. This paper will illustrate that no one Person of the Trinity is above another. Also, focus will be placed on the relationship of the three Persons while explaining their function in relation to each Other. It is true the word Trinity does not exist in the Holy Bible, but the truth of the Trinity is present. This is not a

In his video “How Do You Make a Biblical Case for the Trinity?", Brett Kunkle provides three “steps” to systematically explain the essential truths of the doctrine of the Trinity (STRvideos). The first step is to “Start with the very clear passages that suggest that there is only one God” (STRvideos “How Do You Make a Biblical Case for the Trinity?”); this is essential to avoiding the heresy of tritheism. Several passages of Scripture, including Deuteronomy 6 and John 17:3, affirm that the God of

“The Trinity is the basis of the gospel, and the gospel is the declaration of the Trinity in action.” (J I Packer, likesuccess.com) The Trinity consists of God the Father, Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit, yet they make up one God. It is the simple philosophy of the 3-in-1 or three persons, one essence first brought up by Tertullian. It is this philosophy that allows Christianity to be a monotheism. The definition of the Trinity according to the Merriam-Webster dictionary is “the unity of
