THE INFINITE EXISTENCE OF THE GODKIND TRINITY BEFORE THE CREATION OF THE WORLD- Part 3



THE TRIPERSONAL LORD GOD REVEALED BY THE LORD JESUS CHRIST (LESSONS 1-2)

God in Hebrew word is Elohiym, derived from Eloah. The Deity: God in the plural form of Elohiym has clear revelation that God is not a singular person, and this truth had been explained in lesson one. 

In the singular form, “El” (or God) means strength; as adjective “Mighty”, especially “the Almighty” (Gen. 17:1; 2 Cor. 6:18; Rev.1:8) or “Shadday” which means “powerful”, derived from the Hebrew word “Shaddad”.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                           

In the Greek word, God is Theos, meaning Supreme Divinity-God, Omnipotent (Pantokrator -Almighty), the all ruling, i.e. God, that is absolute and universal, sovereign, Almighty, Omnipotent, (Rev. 19:6) powerful. 

In the Hebrew word or term “Shadad”, this have precise meaning that God is capable to do all things (Mk. 10:27; Lk. 1:39; Heb. 7:16). This inherent power of God is Dunamis in Greek word, having miraculous power, ability, ( worker of) miracle (s).    
                                                                                                           
Another inherent power of God is Kratos in Greek word which means vigor (great dominion) might, power, and strength.

We must consider that the Trinity have the same characteristics. Proof of this is in accordance to the statements of the LORD JESUS in (Jn. 14:7-9; Jn. 10:30) and God the Holy Spirit has mighty power also in Himself as God, (Jud. 14:6; Lk. 24:49; Ac. 1:8). God in Their reality have sameness in Their infinite characteristics; God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.

Although God the Father in Himself as revealed exclusively by the LORD JESUS CHRIST, is the invisible God (Col. 1:15; Jn. 1:18; Jn. 5:37; Jn. 6:46; 1Tim. 6:16), unknowable except through Him (Mt. 11:27) and unreachable except by Him (Jn.14:6), and inaudible to created being, (Jn. 5:37).

Let us keep in our mind that the LORD JESUS CHRIST as the Singular, Exclusive, and Directly Self Revealing God, is the exact representation or the image of the Person of the Father, (Jn. 14:7-9; Heb. 1:3).

We must have clear comprehension, that as the Father loves the Son- the LORD JESUS CHRIST, the Father gave all to Him (Mt. 11:27; Jn. 3:35), including all authority (exousia in Greek word) (Mt. 28:18) and Eternal Purpose as well (Eph. 3:11).

Therefore, since the LORD JESUS became the fulfiller of the Father’s Eternal Purpose (Eph. 3:11), will (Jn. 6:38) and works (Jn. 5:19), hence He has been greatly acknowledged as the power and wisdom of God (1Cor. 1:24; 1:30).

In the entire book of the Bible, the written words and testimonies of JESUS (Rev. 19:10), the only directly revealed Almighty God is the LORD JESUS (Gen. 17:1; Isa.9:6; 2 Cor. 6:18; Rev.1:8) because  He is the exact representation or image of the Father (Jn. 14:7-9; Heb. 1:3)

This is the reason why God the Father remains directly invisible and unknowable, but can be known only through the LORD JESUS. 

Being the beloved  Son of the Father, even all the Glory and Honor that be for the Father, has been given to the LORD JESUS because of His love for His Son (Jn. 3:35).

God the Father as the great Lover, gave the LORD JESUS to the world (Jn. 3:16)

Consequently, as the given God the Son to the world (Isa. 9:6; Jn. 3:16; Ro. 8:32), He has made Himself known to the world as the ALMIGHTY GOD (El Shaddai in Hebrew; Pantokrator in Greek), which means: Infinitely Sufficient, Sustaining, and Satisfying God (Gen. 17:1; 28:3; 35:11; 43:14; 48:3; 49:25).

The Holy Spirit has been revealed by the LORD JESUS as the Comforter, whom the Father will send in His name, and shall teach us all things, and bring all things to our remembrance whatsoever the LORD JESUS had told us, (Jn. 14:26).

The LORD JESUS explained that the Holy Spirit testifies of Him (Jn. 15:26), and do not speak of Himself, but what He shall hear, that shall He speak, and show us things to come (Jn. 16:13).

According to the LORD JESUS, the Holy Spirit will reprove of the world concerning sin, righteousness and judgment (Jn. 16:7-8)

The LORD JESUS had revealed to us regarding God the Holy Spirit:…even the Spirit of truth whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth Him not, neither KNOWETH Him; but ye know Him; for He dwelleth  with you, and shall  be in you (Jn. 14:17).”
