Studies in the Godhead

Our Creator

Posted by on May 13, 2010 in Creation, Godhead

The scriptures tell us that God created all things. We are the special creation of God. Some verses say Jesus created all things, while other verses say the Father is the creator of all things. Is this two ‘persons’ that are creating the universe together? Is this a contradiction? If this is not a contradiction in Scripture, then this brings us to this question: who is our Creator?

One Throne in Heaven

Posted by on May 2, 2010 in Godhead

Whom will we see in heaven? Will we see one, or three? Will we see one throne, or three? If we say there in one throne, then who is sitting on the throne? Is Jesus sitting on the right hand of God? If we say there are three thrones, would that be a tritheistic view of God?. How many thrones are there and who is sitting on the throne? Many do not have a clear understanding of how we will see God in heaven. What do the Scriptures say?

The Father sent the Son into the world to become the ultimate sacrifice for sin. Does this mean that Jesus pre-existed in heaven as the Son of God? Many have seen the fact that Jesus was sent by the Father as proof of multiple ‘persons’ within the Godhead. Does this make Jesus a ‘member’ of the Godhead?

Our Abode

Posted by on Apr 23, 2010 in Godhead

In John 14:23, Jesus is speaking of himself and the Father and uses the terms ‘we’ and ‘our’. These terms have led many to use John 14:23 to support the idea of the trinity. Jesus’ use of the word ‘we’ has been used to proclaim multiple ‘persons’ within the Godhead. Does this verse intend to describe the interworkings of the Godhead? Was Jesus claiming that the Godhead is made up of ‘persons’? What did he mean by ‘abode’? Who is the ‘we’ and ‘our’ he’s referring to?

The Prayers of Jesus Christ

Posted by on Apr 21, 2010 in Godhead

Many see the prayers of Jesus as proof of a distinction of persons within the Godhead. This leads to many questions. Do the prayers of Jesus prove that there are multiple ‘persons’ within the Godhead? When Jesus prayed, did he pray as God or as man? Did he pray from his Deity or his humanity? How did Jesus Pray?

Ancient of Days

Posted by on Apr 6, 2010 in Godhead

The book of Daniel shows us a scene in heaven with God sitting on the throne. Daniel sees God in a vision and gives a very specific description: a garment as white as snow, hair like pure wool, a throne like fire, and wheels burning like fire. Daniel also sees one like the son of man coming to the Ancient of Days. Who is this sitting on the throne in heaven and who is the one like the son of man?
