Non trinitarian greek interlinear bible
proposition #2) and affirm proposition #3 they also agree that the Father and Son are personally distinct but take a somewhat different view of the Holy Spirit (cf. Anti-Trinitarians who affirm something akin to the ancient heresy of Arianism agree that Yahweh or Jehovah is a single divine being (cf. Anti-Trinitarians who affirm something akin to the ancient heresy of monarchianism or modalism generally affirm all but proposition #6 (though they actually have difficulty affirming #3 in a consistent manner). All anti-Trinitarians affirm proposition #3. Ironically, anti-Trinitarians who profess faith in the Bible can be found who affirm all of these propositions, though they disagree among themselves as to which ones are biblical. Objections based on the special theological vocabulary used in Trinitarian creeds, the conceptual difficulty of the doctrine, the political dimensions of ecclesiastical controversies involving the doctrine, the questionable conduct of some of those who adhere to the doctrine, and the like, fail to engage the biblical basis of the doctrine of the Trinity. Anything else is tangential to the issue. In order to dispute the doctrine of the Trinity, then, one must take issue with one or more of the propositions stated above. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are each someone distinct from the other two.Īnyone who affirms all six of these propositions is affirming what is essential to the doctrine of the Trinity, since this is just what the doctrine of the Trinity says. The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ is God, the LORD.
This one God is a single divine being, called Jehovah or Yahweh in the Old Testament (the LORD). There is one God (i.e., one proper object of religious devotion). The doctrine is simply a formal way of systematizing the following six propositions, which may be viewed as premises of the doctrine: While the word Trinity is not in the Bible, the substance of the doctrine is definitely biblical. It is often alleged that the doctrine of the Trinity is not a biblical doctrine. What difference does the doctrine of the Trinity make?.Conclusion: The Bible teaches the Trinity.The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are each someone distinct from the other two.The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ is God.This one God is the single divine being known in the OT as Jehovah or Yahweh ("the LORD").
For an explanation of the method, reasoning, and background of this study, please see the Introduction. This outline study presents a biblical case for the doctrine of the Trinity, citing roughly 1,000 references drawn from well over 300 different chapters of the Bible, including references from all 27 books of the New Testament.
