God's words....the truth
Jesus is our salvation
He is known as the word
God's words...the truth
If we know the truth,
the truth will set us free.

The word of Jehovah God is sharp like sword
With power and authority.
Men don't live by bread alone
They live by God's words...the truth
If we speak the truth, God lives with us
If we lie, we are speaking the words
of the evil ones, father of all liars.

May God's words...the truth
be with us in our hearts
and our life for always.

Christian brothers & sisters, please help to spread the good news of God !

MIK3Y: Philosophically God is neither male nor female to help people
understand that well God is God. But in theology God is caught
revealing himself as "The Father and The Son" God never revealed
Himself as an It!

POTPHER: I totally agree with you. He is neither he nor she nor it. He does not exist. He is the existence.

thank you for your support! Another concept I have heard brought up is, "Is there a system of authority in the Godhead?" Jesus refers to God as being greater, but also says that "I and my Father are one." I believe that all members of the Godhead are equal, but God is unreachable for men. Thats why Jesus is necessary, He is the ONLY way for men to reach God, who is too holy for men to reach. Not that God the Father is more important than Christ, but God is holiness unveiled. Christ is holiness veiled. Love hearing responses I'm looking forward to it, thanks again honesty!

I agree with you also that 3 godheads are as one,
there are quotes scripture of Jesus as the son.
A real person who came to the earth in the name Immanuel, God with us. There are many mentions of the Holy Spirit as well. As well as God thee all Mighty. Jesus refers that his Father is greater then I so there for the fuctions are made different but together as one. I like your out put on this and well said Bardofbritain.

whats really interesting is that the trinity is never mentioned in the Bible! But at least three times God refers to Himself as "us." I believe God is one person, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit each perform tasks, not because God is incapable, but because we as human beings need the three members of the Godhead

I never thought about God being male or female, but He does refer to Himself in the Bible in a masculine tense. The Bible also makes it pretty clear that God has always been, Revelation 1:8 "I am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end." good questions though. thats my outtake

I agree with a bit micheal, the trinity is a 3.
I believe God is the soul source to all. Jesus represents the body and the spirit is the spirit.
Together as one. Just as we are made of the body,spirit and soul. We are not God. We are made in his image.

The trinity teaching is not a God with 3 personalities. It is about the body of the Church at the head before creation was made.. The Father the Son and the Holy spirit. The 3 the Bible speaks of most clearly. Looking at God as if He has a personality disorder is a try i guess at trying to understand the mystery of the trinity but it can be very misleading. Hence why the idea of many more personalities of God emerge. I would throw the personality word out the window. Thank God the Trinity is still in part a mystery :-) Reminds me that I'm not God.

THE HE GOD problem
==================================
Try to explain something to a 2 year old child--------as much as you say the correct terms you can not convey the truth you understand---the child will only grasp the truth the child can understand--------does that mean the child's truth is false and should be discarded----no---because the child will grow into a more perfect understanding as it developes------and the former understanding is necessary for the latter undertanding to evolve--------Theologians have discussed the nature of GOD since the idea of GOD first arose-----and any one that claims to understand the complete knowedge of GOD is overcome by his own ignorance--------each in his own way must search out an idea about GOD that satisfies the mind given to him-----and I would say given by GOD------the church has taught the trinity concept as a way to make more understandable the god concept-------but most modern theologians do not limit god to 3 personalities-----they allow for an infinate number---of which 3 have been identified----in the one god------multiple personalities in people is considered a mental flaw----in an infinate god it seems natural and logical to me------if you agree----good----if not good---we each must follow our best instincts


Currently I am working on a 1500 acre tract in Tenn and need CALTALPA seeds to replant and create the needed bio-diversity also I need TURKS HEAD oak acorns ----any help will be appeciated by mother nature------currently the deer and wild turkey are in large numbers and the project is 80 % complete

When the Lord is refered to as "He" etc its not as clear cut as it first seems. Man and woman came from the same God..before God created man there was no man or woman! This is the way it is told anyways. Its in short a belief which states we did not create ourselves.

The creator created the diminsons of space and created time so that everything wouldn't happen at once.
Before time was created--- now, before and after didn't exist.
If a three year old child asks you "when is a bird?" or "how far is up" do you think you could find an answer that was truth and understood by the child?

God is the primal cause---he/the god head----created himself------and we speak of him as he becase that is the way he was introduced to us-------an impersonal god probably would not be loving----and primative man would not have related to him---if you are more enlightened and wish to think of GOD otherwise--I see no problem with it------we all worship our understanding and can not do otherwise---until god reveals himself to you different from your current impression--------keep you belief----if i told you otherwise it would be impossibe for you to comply---your defination and understanding of GOD will change as you change no one defination is better than another-----the one that satisfies your needs and squares with your logic is the only GOD you can serve---------SEEK AND YE SHALL FIND_--is my advice

Why does god have to be male? I mean, God was never in a male or female body, so therefore how could "he" be either male or female? I think that god is niether and both in a sense. Also, where did god come from? God created everything, but where was "he" before everything was created?
