Part 2: The One God Is Not Three Persons

THE ONE GOD IS NOT THREE PERSONS

Part 2

THE ONE SAVIOUR

The Old Testament Scriptures about the One SAVIOUR

Isaiah 43:3 For I am the LORD thy GOD, the Holy One of Israel, thy SAVIOUR: I gave Egypt for thy ransom, Ethiopia and Seba for thee.

Isaiah 43:11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no SAVIOUR.

Isaiah 45:15 Verily thou art a GOD that hidest thyself, O GOD of Israel, the SAVIOUR.

Isaiah 45:21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no GOD else beside me; a just GOD and a SAVIOUR; there is none beside me.

Isaiah 49:26 And I will feed them that oppress thee with their own flesh; and they shall be drunken with their own blood, as with sweet wine: and all flesh shall know that I the LORD am thy SAVIOUR and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.

Isaiah 60:16 Thou shalt also suck the milk of the Gentiles, and shalt suck the breast of kings: and thou shalt know that I the LORD am thy SAVIOUR and thy Redeemer, the mighty One of Jacob.

The New Testament Scriptures about the One SAVIOUR

Ephesians 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as CHRIST is the head of the church: and he is the SAVIOUR of the body.

Philippians 3:20 For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the SAVIOUR, the LORD JESUS CHRIST:

1 Timothy 1:1 Paul, an apostle of JESUS CHRIST by the commandment of GOD our SAVIOUR, and LORD JESUS CHRIST, which is our hope;

1 Timothy 2:3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of GOD our SAVIOUR;

1 Timothy 4:10 For therefore we both labour and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living GOD, who is the SAVIOUR of all men, specially of those that believe.

2 Timothy 1:10 But is now made manifest by the appearing of our SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST, who hath abolished death, and hath brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:

Titus 1:3 But hath in due times manifested his word through preaching, which is committed unto me according to the commandment of GOD our SAVIOUR;

Titus 1:4 To Titus, mine own son after the common faith: Grace, mercy, and peace, from GOD the Father and the LORD JESUS CHRIST our SAVIOUR.

Titus 2:10 Not purloining, but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of GOD our SAVIOUR in all things.

Titus 2:13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great GOD and our SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST;

Titus 3:4 But after that the kindness and love of GOD our SAVIOUR toward man appeared,

Titus 3:6 Which he shed on us abundantly through JESUS CHRIST our SAVIOUR;

2 Peter 1:1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of JESUS CHRIST, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of GOD and our SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST:

2 Peter 1:11 For so an entrance shall be ministered unto you abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our LORD and SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST.

2 Peter 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the LORD and SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

2 Peter 3:2 That ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us the apostles of the LORD and SAVIOUR:

2 Peter 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our LORD and SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

1 John 4:14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the SAVIOUR of the world.

Jude 1:25 To the only wise GOD our SAVIOUR, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen.

The proofs are obvious that in the Bible there is only One SAVIOUR. The LORD of the Old Testament says “I even I am the LORD and beside me there is no SAVIOUR.” It is very clear, that the LORD alone is The SAVIOUR. But the New Testament calls JESUS CHRIST as The SAVIOUR.

If the LORD of the Old Testament is the SAVIOUR, JESUS CHRIST of the New Testament cannot be the SAVIOUR, unless JESUS CHRIST is the LORD himself.

There cannot be two Saviours, because the Bible clearly teaches that there is only ONE SAVIOUR. This One SAVIOUR is the LORD. This One SAVIOUR is JESUS CHRIST. Because JESUS CHRIST is the LORD!

Joel 2:32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the LORD shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the LORD hath said, and in the remnant whom the LORD shall call.

Romans 10:9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.

12 For there is no difference between the Jew and the Greek: for the same Lord over all is rich unto all that call upon him.

13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.

This LORD GOD is the Only SAVIOUR. Beside him there is no SAVIOUR. Only he is the SAVIOUR, no one else. We cannot find in the Bible that GOD ever delegated the work of salvation to a creature or to an angel or to any deity beside him. He alone is able to accomplish the work of salvation and redemption.

There are two SAVIOURs – GOD the Father and GOD the Son. No!

The Scriptural Doctrine is this: There is only One GOD our SAVIOUR and this GOD our SAVIOUR is JESUS CHRIST – the LORD GOD manifest in the flesh. The One GOD and the One Mediator between GOD

and men.

Part 1: The One God Is Not Three Persons

THE ONE GOD IS NOT THREE PERSONS

Part 1

Most of the churches of traditional Christianity hold on to this statement of faith as part of the Fundamentals: "There is One God eternally existing in Three Distinct Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit". But the question is, "Is it being taught by the Holy Scriptures?". Others go on to the extreme and teach that if a person does not believe in the Trinity, he will go to hell.

The following is the Athanasian Creed which is what these “Roman Catholics” and “Protestants” believe. The Athanasian Creed was a strong defense of the orthodox doctrine of the trinity written around the year 500. It was not written by Athanasius, bishop of Alexandria, an ardent defender of the Trinity against the Arius (a priest who taught that only God the Father was divine and Christ was not divine), but written by his followers after Athanasius death.

Whosoever will be saved, before all things it is necessary that he hold the Catholic Faith.

Which Faith except everyone do keep whole and undefiled, without doubt he shall perish everlastingly.

And the Catholic Faith is this:

That we worship one God in Trinity, and Trinity in Unity,

Neither confounding the Persons, nor dividing the Substance [Essence].

For there is one Person of the Father, another of the Son, and another of the Holy Ghost.

But the Godhead of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, is all one, the Glory equal, the Majesty co-eternal.

Such as the Father is, such is the Son, and such is the Holy Ghost.

The Father uncreate [uncreated], the Son uncreate [uncreated], and the Holy Ghost uncreate [uncreated].

The Father incomprehensible [unlimited], the Son incomprehensible [unlimited], and the Holy Ghost incomprehensible [unlimited].

The Father eternal, the Son eternal, and the Holy Ghost eternal.

And yet they are not three eternals, but one eternal.

As also there are not three incomprehensibles [infinites], nor three uncreated, but one uncreated, and one incomprehensible [infinite].

So likewise the Father is Almighty, the Son Almighty, and the Holy Ghost Almighty.

And yet they are not three Almighties, but one Almighty.

So the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Ghost is God.

And yet they are not three Gods, but one God.

So likewise the Father is Lord, the Son Lord, and the Holy Ghost Lord.

And yet not three Lords, but one Lord.

For like as we are compelled by the Christian verity: to acknowledge every Person by himself to be both God and Lord,

So are we forbidden by the Catholic Religion, to say, There be [are] three Gods, or three Lords.

The Father is made of none, neither created, nor begotten.

The Son is of the Father alone, not made, nor created, but begotten.

The Holy Ghost is of the Father and of the Son, neither made, nor created, nor begotten, but proceeding.

So there is one Father, not three Fathers; one Son, not three Sons; one Holy Ghost, not three Holy Ghosts.

And in this Trinity none is afore, or after other; none is greater, or less than another [there is nothing before, or after: nothing greater or less];

But the whole three Persons are co-eternal together and co-equal.

So that in all things, as is aforesaid, the Unity in Trinity and the Trinity in Unity is to be worshipped.

He therefore that will be saved must [let him] thus think of the Trinity.

Furthermore, it is necessary to everlasting salvation that he also believe rightly the Incarnation of our Lord Jesus Christ.

For the right Faith is, that we believe and confess, that our Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is God and Man;

God, of the Substance [Essence] of the Father, begotten before the worlds; and Man, of the Substance [Essence] of his Mother, born in the world;

Perfect God and perfect Man, of a reasonable soul and human flesh subsisting;

Equal to the Father, as touching his Godhead; and inferior to the Father, as touching his Manhood.

Who although he be [is] God and Man, yet he is not two, but one Christ;

One, not by conversion of the Godhead into flesh, but by taking assumption of the Manhood into God;

One altogether, not by confusion of Substance [Essence], but by unity of Person.

For as the reasonable soul and flesh is one man, so God and Man is one Christ;

Who suffered for our salvation, descended into hell [Hades, spirit-world], rose again the third day from the dead.

He ascended into heaven, he sitteth on the right hand of the Father, God [God the Father] Almighty,

From whence [thence] he shall come to judge the quick and the dead.

At whose coming all men shall rise again with their bodies

And shall give account for their own works.

And they that have done good shall go into life everlasting, and they that have done evil into everlasting fire.

This is the Catholic Faith, which except a man believe faithfully [truly and firmly], he cannot be saved.

Look at what these men say: “Whosoever will be saved, before all things it is necessary that he hold the Catholic Faith.

Which Faith except everyone do keep whole and undefiled, without doubt he shall perish everlastingly… This is the Catholic Faith, which except a man believe faithfully [truly and firmly], he cannot be saved.” The catholic faith that man must believe is the doctrine of the trinity, and if a man does not believe this doctrine, “he cannot be saved”! That’s what they teach? But is it the teaching of the Holy Scriptures?

The word “trinity” is not mentioned even “once” in the entire Scriptures. So why build a doctrine which the Holy Scriptures don’t even mention?

Where did the word “trinity” come from? And who invented this word “trinity”? It was a Roman Catholic Theologian of the third century by the name of Quintus Septimius Florens Tertullian. Yes, Tertullian. Tertullian came up with this word in his refute of the Monarchians, who stressed the monarchy of God and maintained that God was “one’, that there was only one person of the Godhead and he carried out different functions as The Father, then as the Son and the Holy Spirit. Tertullian refuted this and said that God is one substance in three persons. The “trinity” doctrine which is followed by the Romanist churches for centuries. See? the word “trinity” is an invented word of the Roman Catholic theologian Tertullian, “the Father of Latin theology”.

The Scriptures below are Scripture verses that prove that the Trinity doctrine is not a Biblical Doctrine but rather a doctrine that is rooted in paganism’s polytheism. The Bible clearly teaches that there is ONE TRUE GOD (Deut. 6:4).

Isaiah 9: 6, "For unto us a child is born, unto us a Son is given: and the government shall be upon His shoulder; and His name shall be called Wonderful, Councilor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace".

This verse is a prophecy about Christ referred to as "Son", in the phrase "a Son is given". And “He shall be called everlasting Father". That is to say, the Son shall be called "everlasting Father".

But, you may ask, "How can the Father and the Son be the same Person?" The answer is that they – Father and Son are titles, offices or manifestations of the LORD who is One. There are several passages in the Old Testament that tell us that the LORD is the Father. Is. 9:6, quoted above is one of the Old Testament verses that prove that the Father and the Son are one.

Isaiah 63:16, "Doubtless, thou art our Father, though Abraham be ignorant of us, and Israel acknowledge us not: Thou O LORD art our Father, our Redeemer; thy name is from everlasting".

The New Testament (Matthew to Revelation) teaches that The Son is our Redeemer.

Revelation 5:9, “for Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood …"

Ephesians 1:6-7, "He hath made us accepted in the Beloved, in whom we have redemption through His blood".

And many more verses.

In other words, the Father is the Redeemer and the Son is the Redeemer. There are obviously not two Redeemers, therefore, the Son and the Father are one. If we see Christ as the Son only, as opposed to fulfilling all the titles of the LORD, that makes no sense. That is to say, if Christ is the Son and the Father, we must understand that to mean that he fulfills the offices of "Father" and of "Son", they are not two different "Persons".

Isaiah 64:8, "And now O LORD, Thou art our Father; we are the clay, and we all are the work of Thy hand".

This verse tells us that man was created by the LORD. But we know from at least two New Testament verses that Christ Jesus is the Creator.

John 1:10, "He (Christ) was in the world, and the world was made by Him, and the world knew him not".

Col. 1:16, "For by him (Christ) were all things created, that are in heaven and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him".

If we see the LORD (Father) as one Person and Christ (Son) as another, we have a contradiction. There are no contradictions in the Word of God, but once we see that Christ is the fulfillment of all of the LORD’s titles, including "Father", then everything is clear. That is to say, man was created by the LORD in his office of Father and in his office of God (Aleim) Gen. 1:1.

INSTRUCTION

The word “INSTRUCTION” is found 33 times in the entire Bible, in 33 verses. 32 in the Old Testament and once only in the New Testament.

The word ‘TORAH”, which is correctly ‘TURE” or “TURO” because in ancient semitic Hebrew it is four letters namely: Tav, Vav, Ras and Ea (T-U-R-E). Others say it must be “TURO”. The word “TURO” is the Tagalog for “instruction” or “teaching”. It also means “direction”. It is the Lord who teaches us or who gives us instruction to walk into such right direction.

The word “TORAH”, “TURE”” or “TURO” means “instruction” and not the “narrow” LAW. It is not only the 5 books of Moses or the Old Testament Scriptures but it includes the New Testament Sciptures. Thus “ALL SCRIPTURE” is what God gave us by the inspiration of God as “our instruction”.
