Mystery Of The Trinity
June 13
John 8:19 'Then said they unto him, Where is thy Father? Jesus answered, Ye neither know me, nor my Father: if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also.'

JOHN 8:12-27
The scriptures teach Jesus' oneness with the Father. This oneness is more than singleness of purpose and actually denotes 'a single one to the exclusion of others' as in the statement, 'There is one God' (1 Tim. 2:5).

This truth is so well established in scripture that some people make no distinction between the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit but believe they are simply one God expressing Himself in three different ways. However, Jesus makes a distinction between Himself and His Father here and uses Himself and His Father as two different witnesses to fulfill the requirement of Deuteronomy 17:6. Jesus would have been deceiving these Jews if there was no distinction between His Father and Himself; and yet, they are one (Jn. 10:30; 1 Jn. 5:7). This is a great mystery and yet a very well established fact in scripture.

One of the great statements of the Old Testament from Deuteronomy 6:4 says, 'The Lord our God is one Lord.' We do not have three Gods, but one God, clearly identifiable as three persons. This is a great mystery, which has not been adequately explained. Scriptures reveal the truth of the Trinity, but make no attempt to explain it. We simply accept this revelation as it is, until we know all things, even as we are known (1 Cor. 13:12).

Jesus said that the witness of His Father was the greatest testimony of who He was. Everyone can hear His testimony of Jesus through the scriptures.

Moses and all the Old Testament prophets spoke of the coming of Jesus, and Peter said the written word of God was a more sure word of prophecy than the audible voice of God. Read the Word today.

So what exactly is your opinion? Are your saying that God the Father, The Son and the Holy Spirit are one being or are you against that school of thought. Your post is confusing and will only end up causing more confusion to anyone who is already confused on the topic of the Trinity. Sometimes its better to be as simple as possible for your readers to understand what you are saying than being too grand yet your readers don't understand anything from what you wrote.

John 17 v 20 - 23

20 “My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message,

21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me.

22 I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one

23 I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.


The bolded part in John 17 v 22 shows you the kind of oneness Jesus has with the Father which he prayed for the body of believers to have.

That oneness connotes unity. Oneness in Spirit, mind and purpose.

Don’t mistake Oneness to mean the Son is literally the Father too. That’s a doctrine of devils the early church fought against. (Modalism was a heretic doctrine the early church fought against).

I implore everyone to do diligent research on the scriptures and study early church history too.
