TRINITY OF THE GODHEAD

TRINITY OF THE GODHEAD TEXT: Matthew 3:16,17; 28:19; John 10:30; 15:26; 2 Corinthians 13:14; 1 Peter 1:2   The Godhead and its Trinity is one of the deep mysteries of the Kingdom of God revealed to us in Scripture. It is one of the greatest tenets of the Christian faith that is better believed than mentally understood because it is anchored on the nature and person of God. The subject has, through the ages, confounded the wise and prudent but conferred on the faithful, trusting believer, the blessings of simplicity of faith.    Through reasoning, man can never attain the Trinitarian conception of the Almighty God, neither can he by research or logical inquiry understand the nature of God. The error many people have fallen into is an obsessive desire to rationalize this teaching.     Some contend that the word ‘Trinity’ is not in the Bible; and this has hindered their acceptance and belief of it. They have forgotten that the word, ‘Bible’ is not in the ...

THE INCARNATION OF CHRIST All praise to thee, Eternal Lord, Clothed in a garb of flesh and blood; Choosing a manger for a throne, While worlds of worlds are thine alone. Martin Luther  The Incarnation in Christianity is the belief that the second person of the Trinity, also known as God the Son or the Logos (Word), "became flesh" by being conceived in the womb of Mary, also known as the Theotokos (God-bearer).

It is the natural heart pangs of the visible man to see the invisible God. This desire is one of the heart yearnings of man that resulted in corrupted man condescending to less than animalistic nature of which the living man bows than to dead though visible idols. Job expressed this in Job 23: 8, 9: “Behold, I go forward, but He ...

          FOLLOW-UP: WHAT IT ENTIALS Genesis 1:28, Luke 1:28, Mark 1:28, Romans 1:28, Colossians 1:28, Philippians 1:28    It is after a child is born that the parents spend more money, time and care to cloth the child, feed him, teach him on how to walk, etc. this is exactly what follow-up can be likened to. If after the child is born, the mother thinks she has done all that she needs to do and neglects the child, the child would not grow well, and would soon die as a result of starvation.   It does not take a mother one week before she starts to nurse and feed the new-born baby with water and milk. The case of the mother is the same with the case of the soul winner –in fact the soul-winner is a spiritual nursing mother whose duty is to see that the child grows unto full maturity, lacking nothing (1Thessalonians 2:7-8). When a soul is won to the Lord or converted, half of the work is not yet done. Preaching the gospel to sinner is the first...
