ONE GODHEAD “Hear, O Israel! The LORD is our God, the LORD is one!” “Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the LORD of Deuteronomy 6: 4 hosts: ‘I am the first and I am the last, and there is no God besides Me. ’” Isaiah 44: 6
The Holy Scriptures reveal three divine beings composing the one Godhead. • The one true Deity consists of a plurality of beings. • Elohim = God (Genesis 1: 1, 26; 3: 22; 11: 6 -7) • Deuteronomy 4: 7; 1 Samuel 4: 7; Jeremiah 10: 10
The Holy Scriptures reveal three divine beings composing the one Godhead. • The New Testament reveals that God is three divine beings. • Jesus with God in the beginning (John 1: 1 -3) • At Jesus’ baptism (Matthew 3: 16 -17 • Jesus’ teaching (John 6: 37 -38; 8: 16; 12: 45, 49; 14: 16 -17; 16: 7, 15) • God-inspired epistles (1 Cor. 8: 4 -6; Eph. 4: 4 -6)
The Father, the Son and the Spirit are God, Deity. • The Father is God (John 20: 17; 1 Corinthians 1: 3). • The Son is God (John 1: 1, 14, 18). • The Holy Spirit is God (Acts 5: 3 -4). • All three are Divine Beings, but they are not the same Being (John 1: 3; 14: 16, 26).
The oneness of the Father, Son and Spirit is manifested in their work. • Possesses and acts according to His will (Matthew 7: 21; John 5: 30; 1 Corinthians 12: 11) • Speaks and teaches in harmony (John 8: 18, 28; Matthew 17: 5; John 14: 26; 15: 26; 1 Timothy 4: 1) • Reveals truth (Matthew 16: 17; Luke 10: 22; John 16: 13) • Works to accomplish heavenly purposes (John 5: 17, 36; Eph. 2: 10; Heb. 7: 25; Rom. 8: 26 -27; Acts 20: 28)
