Trinity (1 John 5:7 kjv) "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one."

>(Deut 6:4) One God
>(John 6:27) God the Father
>(John 20:26-28) God the Son
>(Acts 5:3-4) God the Spirit
All these verses show the trinity. The word trinity is not in the Bible, but that doesn’t mean there is no trinity.

1. Man is a trinity: (1 Thess 5:23 kjv) – “And the very God of peace sanctify you wholly; and I pray God your whole spirit and soul and body be preserved blameless unto the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.” Man has 3 different parts. This means God has 3 different parts also.

2. Godhead (Acts 17:29; Rom 1:20; Col 2:9 kjv): These verses show that Godhead was mentioned. Godhead means God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.

3. Picture of trinity (The Sun):
a. Light ray: Can be seen but cannot be felt. (Jesus Christ).
b. Heat ray: You can feel it, but cannot see it (Holy Spirit).
c. Actinic ray: Can’t be seen nor felt (The Father).

4. God mentioned as plural:
a. (Gen 1:26 kjv) “Let us make man.”
b. (Gen 3:22 kjv) God referred to Himself as “Us.”
c. (Gen 11:6-7 kjv) “Let us go down” (reference to the tower of Babel).
d. (Matt 13:14-15 kjv) Jesus referred to Himself as “Us.”

5. Distinction of Trinity:
The Father, Son, and Spirit are one God, but not the same person. (John 14:28 kjv) – God the Son exalts the Father. (John 16:13-14 kjv) – God the Spirit exalts the Son. This is why you don’t pray to the Holy Spirit, you should pray to the Father and Son only. The Holy Spirit doesn’t brag on himself, He only brags on Jesus (1 John 4:1-3, 10-15; 5:9-13 kjv).

6. Basis of the Trinity:
a. Baptism (Matt 28:19 kjv). This verse shows there is God the Father, Son and the Holy Ghost.
b. Benediction (2 Cor 113:14 kjv).
c. New Birth (Salvation) (John 3:5 kjv).
d. Prayer (Rom 15:30 kjv).
e. Salvation (1 Pet 1:2 kjv).

7. Trinity acting in unity:
a. (i). In creation (Gen 1:3 kjv). (ii). In (John 1:1,3 kjv) The word became flesh which is Jesus Christ (spoken word). (iii). In (Gen 1:2 kjv) the Spirit of God was involved in creation.
b. Incarnation (virgin birth of Jesus). (i). God gave His only Son (John 3:16 kjv). (ii). Jesus was involved because He was born (Luke 2:11 kjv). (iii). Holy Ghost was involved in the incarnation (Luke 1:35 kjv). He went inside Mary.
c. Redemption (Heb 9:14 kjv). (i) God purge our conscience. (ii). Blood of Jesus washed out our sins. (iii). The blood of Christ was able to cleanse us of our sins through the Holy Spirit.
d. Salvation: (i). (Luke 15:22 kjv) The Father (prodigal son). (ii). (Luke 15:4 kjv) Jesus (Shepherd). (iii). (Eph 1:13 kjv) The Holy Spirit sealed us. This is a great verse on “once saved always saved.”
e. Communion:
i. (Eph 2:18 kjv) We talk to God the Father.
ii. (2 Cor 5:19 kjv) Jesus made it possible for us to have access to the Father; to communion with God the Father.
iii. (Eph 2:18 kjv) Holy Spirit gives us the access to talk to God the Father.
f. Prayer: (John 16:23 kjv) God the Father and Son. (Rom 8:26 kjv) The Holy Spirit.
g. In Glory: (i) (1 Cor 15:24) The Father (Millennium). (ii). (Phil 3:21 kjv) The Son (He will change our body). (iii). (Rev 22:17 kjv) The Holy Spirit giving us invitation to glory.
h. Regeneration. (i). (Luke 10:20 kjv) The Father wrote our name in Heaven (the book of life). (ii). (Eph 1:7 kjv) Jesus blood wash away our sin and gave us a new birth. (iii). (John 3:3,5,6 kjv) The Holy Spirit regenerated us (The spiritual birth; born again).

8. Attributes of God in Trinity:
a. Eternal:
1. (Psa 90:2 kjv) The Father.
2. (Rev 1:8 kjv) The Son. (vss 17&18 show it was Jesus Christ).
3. (Heb 9:14 kjv) God the Spirit. Eternal Spirit.
b. Omnipotent:
1. (1 Pet 1:5 kjv) God the Father.
2. (2 Cor 12:9 kjv) The Son has all the power.
3. (Rom 15:19 kjv) The Spirit has all the power.
c. Omniscience:
1. (Jer 17:10 kjv) The Father.
2. (Rev 2:23 kjv) The Son. (Rev 1:18 shows that it was Jesus that was talking).
3. (1 Cor 2:11 kjv) The Holy Spirit looks at the heart of men.
d. Omnipresence:
1. (Jer 23:24 kjv) The Father.
