IS THE TRINITY
REALLY IN THE BIBLE
???
By Dr. Michael E. Todd

Can it clearly be proven that God is three in one or a Tri-Unity? Many people in the world today say that the Trinity is not in the Bible and therefore reject this teaching and also that Jesus Christ is God.

Forget what someone has told you and look at the FINAL AUTHORITY the Bible and see for yourself. The Bible IS your final authority isn't it? Then you should not have a problem in looking up the following.

GOD THE FATHER,
GOD THE SON &
GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT
WERE TEMPTED IN THE WILDERNESS

What? You mean to tell me that all three were tempted in the wilderness? Well let's compare scripture with scripture and see just exactly what the Bible says about it, shall we?

The following three passages of scripture clearly show that God is three in one (a Tri-Unity).

1. THE LORD - (JEHOVAH GOD) - Wherefore the people did chide with Moses, and said, Give us water that we may drink. And Moses said unto them, Why chide ye with me? wherefore do ye TEMPT THE LORD? (Exodus 17:2)

Who did Moses say was tempted? Why the LORD GOD OF ISRAEL of course. Look at the context and see for yourself. Now take a look at this next verse and see what the Bible says about Jesus Christ being in the wilderness.

2. CHRIST - Neither let us TEMPT CHRIST, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents. (1 Corinthians 10:9)

Did you notice that in the contexts the LORD in His word uses both the Father and Christ interchangeably in the above passages? Now hang onto you seat because the Bible not only uses the Father and the Son, but next comes another personage in the Bible
that was tempted in the wilderness.

3. THE HOLY GHOST - Wherefore (as the HOLY GHOST SAITH, To day if ye will hear his voice, Harden not your hearts, as in the provocation, in the day of temptation in the wilderness: When your fathers TEMPTED ME, proved me, and saw my works forty years. (Hebrews 3:7-9)

NOW WHO WAS TEMPTED?

Why the Bible says,

GOD THE FATHER,
GOD THE SON,
GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT.

Go back and read the above verses again. The Bible says, "Prove all things." (1 Thes 5:21) Don't just stand there.
Open your Bible and check it out!

NOW LET'S LOOK AT SOME OTHER PASSAGES THAT
CLEARLY REVEAL THE TRINITY IN THE BIBLE.

The Lord Jesus Christ gave us a command in how to baptize believers. Please note the following carefully.
Remember! Every word is important.

Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the
NAME
of the Father,
and of the Son,
and of the Holy Ghost:

(Matthew 28:19)

Did you note that the above verse said, "in the NAME" (singular) NOT in the NAMES of ... (plural)? The reason the writer of Matthew said "NAME" and not NAMES is because he knew that God was a TRI-UNITY and not three separate people or things.
Go back and read the verse again.
And this time note clearly every word that is used,
and not what you just thought was there.

Many modern perversions (including the New World Translation) omit the following verse which clearly reveals God as a Trinity. Yet, from the clear statements above it is obvious that the Trinity should be there just as the Kind James Bible presents it.

For there are THREE that bear record in heaven,
the Father,
the Word,
and the Holy Ghost:
and THESE THREE ARE ONE.

(1 John 5:7)

As a matter of fact, many perverted bibles omit this verse and say that it should not be there. However, according to other verses in the Bible there is NO CONTRADICTION or misuse of scripture by the King James translators. The modern versions are WRONG including the New World Translation. The TRINITY (TRI-UNITY) is a Bible doctrine and God clearly reveals this in His word.

NOTE ALSO THE FOLLOWING PASSAGES OF SCRIPTURE
DEALING WITH THE TRINITY

FATHER - SON - HOLY GHOST
And the Holy Ghost descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon him, and a voice came from heaven,
which said, Thou art my beloved Son;
in thee I am well pleased.
(Luke 3:22)

THE "WORD" IS MENTIONED THREE TIMES
In the beginning was the Word,
and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God.
(John 1:1)

SPIRIT MENTIONED THREE TIMES
HOLY SPIRIT - SPIRIT OF GOD - SPIRIT OF CHRIST

But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit,
if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you.
Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ,
he is none of his.
(Rom 8:9)

THE GOD HEAD
The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ,
and the love of God,
and the communion of the Holy Ghost,
be with you all. Amen.
(2 Cor 13:14)

TRINITY - FATHER, SON, HOLY GHOST
Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard,
that the everlasting God,
the LORD,
the Creator of the ends of the earth,
fainteth not, neither is weary?
(Isa 40:28)

Thus saith thy Lord
the LORD,
and thy God that pleadeth the cause of his people:
(Isa 51:22)

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ,
and the love of God,
and the communion of the Holy Ghost,
be with you all. Amen.
(2 Corinthians 13:14)
