Michael548:

How do you then explain John 14:28
Offices

God manifested in the flesh to do the work of salvation because all man has fallen. He manifested as a result of spoken Word through the prophets. Paul said that office was made a little lower than even that of angels. Hebrews 2 v7 kjv.

Don’t argue the Word, you have to accept it if you find it as truth and believe it. If you don’t understand, it’s different but try to be smart and raise dust. There’s no loopholes in the Word. It’s the only perfect Thing. If you have doubts, just know scriptures don’t contradict or cancel scriptures. Jesus said a kingdom divided against itself cannot stand.

The woman at the well when he told her I am He, that settled it for her.

Shalom

So how is the Father Greater than the Son If the Son was Almighty God on earth?
Re: Is God A Trinity? by Nobody: 7:41pm On Mar 19, 2023
If you still doubt, I’ll tell you, it’s all over tge scriptures, you only need the baptism of the Holy Ghost like the on day of pentecost to see it. Remember, It is hid from the eyes of the wise and prudent, revealed to babes such as would learn.

The father that dwelt in the body Jesus, as he was baptized on the Jordan. The Spirit came on him like a dove and afterwards drove him to the wilderness to be tempted. All these things were done for our ensamples as saith the scriptures.

When he was on the cross, the father that dwelt in him, cannot die. So, as Jesus became so sinful carrying all the sins of his own, the father left him, so that God could strike him- all that sinneth must die. The body cried “my father, my father why has thou forsaken me” that was the father leaving so that body could die.

It’s right there, you can feel something in your heart, but you can’t place your hand on it.

Offices, can you not see?
The power i have as a banker to control might be greater than that of a hunter.

So you are simply saying that the father and the son are separate and not equal for the father not to die and leave him right?

So you are implying that the Father is seperate from the son?
Re: Is God A Trinity? by Nobody: 7:48pm On Mar 19, 2023
Jesus told thomas to thurst his hand in to his sides not doubting but believing.
You have to open your heart to believe as you read them things and you might be filled with the Holy Spirit even on the spot as Cornelius.
Or even if you’re convinced beyond intellectual arguments, your heart will still be blocked to it. It will only stay there as a knowledge, no power to quicken It, unless the Lord be merciful to you later, maybe you’ll think on these things and your heart will open and He’ll come in.

You've not answered my questions yet and you say I'm looking smart. You gave an explanation and I asked questions. Or you expected me just to believe like that.
If you understand the real concept of Trinity you would understand where all my questions are coming from.
Re: Is God A Trinity? by Nobody: 7:55pm On Mar 19, 2023
Whatever questions you may have, read all i have written and you’ll find the answers there.

If you eventually get to a point whereby after you find an answer, something else reveals another parts of the scriptures that complements all and it settles for you with power or sweetness, congratulations, you might have as well received the Holy Spirit.

I challenge anyone to give it a chance; read it not doubting but believing and see

I challenge anyone here with a life problem, any sort at all.

Read It, believing, Give it a chance! If you’re really tough at all, open your heart and see what takes place

see if it doesn’t settle any problem you have!

You’ll come out laughing. “It’s all settled!”

I challenge you!

I take command from him because he is greater than me and although he is my father, we are not the same person. We are separate.
The same applies to Jesus. John 14:28, 31

The word 'Almighty' means supreme or the highest. Jesus is saying that the Father is the supreme over him. Please this thing is simple English.

Brother the Bible is not an ordinary book you need a revelation knowledge, how will he knows the sign without knowing the day? Also greatness in the bible is not defined by the world standard, Jesus said the greater among you will be the one to serve.the attributes that define almighty God as greater is service and when Jesus was here on earth he served, connect the dot. please take time and read the book of Hebrews to the end you'll have More understanding of who Jesus is because some call him angel,he should not be worship. But i pray God will give you understanding

Re: Is God A Trinity? by Venerable612(m): 10:22pm On Mar 19, 2023
Michael548:

Ok. If your explanation Means that the father is Greater than Jesus, that would still go against the doctrine of the Trinity that teaches that Jesus is coequal to God and not lesser in any way.

Again, it does not.

See Philippians 2:6-7. I did the favour of copying the AMPLIFIED VERSION, as it explains things more in lay men terms.

“ Philippians 2:6-17

Amplified Bible
6 who, although He existed in the form and unchanging essence of God [as One with Him, possessing the fullness of all the divine attributes—the entire nature of deity], did not regard equality with God a thing to be grasped or asserted [as if He did not already possess it, or was afraid of losing it];

7 but emptied Himself [without renouncing or diminishing His deity, but only temporarily giving up the outward expression of divine equality and His rightful dignity] by assuming the form of a bond-servant, and being made in the likeness of men [He became completely human but was without sin, being fully God and fully man].”
