HOLY SPIRIT OF LORD JESUS THE JEHOVAH

HOLY SPIRIT OF LORD JESUS THE JEHOVAH

BY DR. MERVYN ABREO

          Is the Holy Trinity a mystery? No! It isn't! But it will always remain a mystery to those who, like the ostrich, hide their heads in the sand.

          And we need to get a better understanding of this ‘mystery’ if for no other reason but to get a better picture of Who God really is, whether we see Him as the Father, the Son or the Holy Spirit.

WHY IS THE TRINITY A MYSTERY?

On one hand, we have the Biblical truth proclaimed by the Church, that there is only one God! While on the other hand, in the Bible, on a number of occasions, we come across, God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, being mentioned individually, or in twos and even   threes, conversing with Each other.

  The Christian and three Gods:  The greatest danger is to the Christian himself, who uses the term Father, Son and Holy Spirit as though they were three Gods.      

          When questioned, he quickly goes on the defense, saying that he actually believes in one God, and that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit actually are three Persons in one God.

              But when asked as to how he visualizes God, he describes God the Father as an old man with white hair and a long white beard, God the Son as a young man, with a trimmed beard and shoulder length hair, and the Holy Spirit as a dove, hovering in the air.

  GOD THE FATHER: Right from the beginning God revealed Himself to man as one God: ‘Hear, Oh Israel the Lord thy God is one God (the only God)’. (Deuteronomy 6:4).

  JESUS CHRIST AS GOD: There was absolutely no doubt that Jesus claimed to be God and was therefore crucified for it.

 THE HOLY SPIRIT AS GOD: is described as the mysterious power or presence of God.

 BASIC ISSUE ABOUT THE TRINITY: Is Jesus Christ God? Is He really and fully God? The core of the doctrine of the Trinity was and is the divinity of Jesus Christ, as well as that of the Holy Spirit!

THE TRINITY EXPLAINED BY TIME-SPACE-MATTER:

 The rules of time-space-matter can be applied to Jesus Christ, while He was on earth, because He was a man like you and me. But these rules cannot in anyway be applied to the Father and the Holy Spirit because They are essentially Spirit Beings.

THE WORLD OF GOD THE FATHER: God told Moses His name,’’ I am who I am. (Exodus 3: 13). An Omnipresent God! (One Who is continuously in a ‘present’ state).

WORLD OF THE HOLY SPIRIT: He is the Spirit of Jesus - or Jesus in the Spirit form, outside the confines of our world, so that He can be at all places at all times, (Omnipresent), ministering to everybody, simultaneously, an attribute/ characteristic the human Jesus did not possess.

 USING TIME-SPACE-MATTER TO STUDY THE ‘THREE GODS’ OF THE TRINITY:

GOD (God the Father) - the one true living God (Jehovah, Yahweh):

He created the earth (matter).

In a time/space environment.

 Time: made up of- yesterday, today and tomorrow.

 Space: made up of- length, breadth and height.

He created man: matter in time and space.

Man sinned- God lost His kingdom to Satan.

God communicated with man (Israel) - people terrified.

God decided to become man (matter) in time/space dimension.

And communicate with man on a one to one basis.

JESUS (GOD THE SON)

God became man, and was named Jesus.

Got the title of Christ (Greek), Messiah (Hebrew) -- Anointed One.

In the Gospel of John:

 “In the beginning was the Word (Jesus).

And the Word (Jesus) was with God (the Father).

And the Word (Jesus) was God (the Father).

He (Jesus) was with God (the Father) in the beginning.

Through Him (Jesus) all things were made”. (John 1:1-3).

Jesus came down on earth to reestablish His kingdom.

Crucifixion, resurrection & ascension: Jesus ceased to be human (matter) and ceased to be bound on earth (by time & space).

GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT (Advocate, Councilor)

          Presence of God (Lord Jesus Christ) continues on earth in the Spirit form as:

          “The Holy Spirit of Lord Jesus Christ the Jehovah”.

 

A CHILD LIKE EXPLAINATION FOR THE HOLY TRINITY

          When my son was nine and daughter six years old, I explained to them about the Trinity by giving them my personal example.

          I told them that I was their dad, a doctor in the clinic and a preacher in the Church. Was I three different persons? Definitely not!

          If you had to ask my son who I was, his answer, ‘My dad, Dr. Mervyn is a preacher in the Church!’
