  • Can the word TRINITY be found in the bible?
  • Is there a verse in the bible that literally state that the THREE ARE ONE?
  • How can GOD be both ONE and THREE at the same time?
  • Why are there many verses that show they exist individually and work separately?
  • Is it possible to answer these questions and get a full grasp of these mysteries?
  • Was there a revelation of the mystery of this oneness in the Apostles time or are we just too lazy to unravel this mystery because we fail to properly study our bible from cover to cover?

I asked these questions but I did not get a convincing explanation from anyone for two decades. However because these questions have generated a lot of debate among Christians and 2Timothy 2:15 wants us to ‘Study to show thyself approve unto GOD. A workman that need not be ashamed rightly dividing the word of truth’ I decided to search the truth for myself.

Finally these questions were thrown at me and these were my answers:

This could be boring but just like me, somewhere someday, someone might ask you these same questions and  1 Peter 3:15 But sanctify the LORD GOD in your hearts: And be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear.

The Almighty GOD is ONE in DIVINE BEING and THREE in PERSON.

Tri = three

Unity =one

Tri + unity = trinity

A mathematical representation of it would be:-

1+1+1= 1
No the word TRINITY is not in the bible.
YES! There is a verse in the bible that says the FATHER, JESUS CHRIST and the HOLY SPIRIT are ONE.

 

1 John 1: 1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and our hands have handled, of the Word of life;

2(For the LIFE was manifested, and we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that ETERNAL LIFE, which was with the FATHER, and was manifested unto us;)

3 That which we have seen and heard declare we unto you, that ye also may have fellowship with us: and truly our fellowship is with the FATHER, and with HIS SON JESUS CHRIST.

 

Luke said in

Luke 1:1-4 Forasmuch as many have taken in hand to set forth in order a declaration of those things which are most surely believed among us, 2 Even as they delivered them unto us, which from the beginning were eyewitnesses, and ministers of the word; 3It seemed good to me also, having had perfect understanding of all things from the very first, to write unto thee in order, most excellent Theophilus,

4 That thou mightiest know the certainty of those things, wherein thou hast been instructed.
