The Trinity Is Central to Our Faith

Section 1: God Week 3: God Exists As Trinity Day 5: The Trinity Is Central to Our Faith Rev. 20-22 We sometimes treat the Trinity as a throwaway doctrine. We believe it to be true, but we don’t think about it very often. That’s a shame, because when we understand the doctrine of the Trinity, we realize it explains a lot about our faith. We believe, for example, God became man to die as a sacrifice for our sin in…

The Trinity Transcends All Comparisons

Section 1: God Week 3: God Exists As Trinity Day 4: The Trinity Transcends All Comparisons Matt. 28:16-20, 2 Cor. 13:14, Eph. 3:14-19 It’s hard for us to fully get our minds around the doctrine of the Trinity.

There was never really any debate about whether the Father was God. However, that was not the case with the Son. Arianism, for example, claimed the Son was…

God Exists as Three Persons

Section 1: God Week 3: God Exists As Trinity Day 1: God Exists As Three Persons Matt. 3:13-17 The Father, Son, & Holy Spirit Are Distinct from One Another At first this might seem like an unnecessary point to make because the Bible clearly refers to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. So we obviously have three persons…right? There are those, however, who say the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit aren’t distinct from one another. The Father, Son, and Holy…
