It all started when cutting a tree with a chainsaw. The tree was being cut into different pieces. Then this understanding came. Though being cut into different pieces, it was still one tree. Each part of a tree has a different function.
1. the root-- 2.the trunk--3.the bough. all three parts manifest the life and then the leaves and fruit. though each part manifests from the one essence-- a tree-- they are three distinct personalities: root ,trunk, bough. the root is not the bough, or the trunk etc. note the fruit and leaves are produced from the tree and not the tree itself. They fall off and more replace them. I would call that righteousness.
In Isa. 11:1 We have Jesus the seed of Jesse called the branch. That is also a spiritual type or figure.
Note we don't call the root a tree. otherwise we would have a second tree. we don't call the bough a tree, or we would have a third tree. so the root, trunk, bough are separate parts or personalities. Therefore the tree is one tree. If you have 3 trees ,root , trunk, bough the analogy would reveal 3 Gods.-- That would be false. So we have (one tree,) (not three) with three distinct personalities. Deut. 6:4 The Lord God is one Lord. He has three distinct and separate personalities not persons.
Once you understand that God is a Spirit and he must be worshipped in Spirit and in truth, John 4:24. God is not a man that he should lie. Num. 23:19. also the Holy Spirit sent from God. In the form of a dove. Lastly Jesus born of Mary-- God in the flesh. ( not flesh before Mary.) Yet sent from the father's right hand. He took on flesh so he could reveal the father's will and also die as a sacrifice for us.
The doctrine of the trinity is under attack. One example is T.D.Jakes he is a oneness Pentecostal. He believes It is only Jesus. Father and Holy Spirit is Jesus. It appears that the saying would say in a suttle way that there is no Father. (only Jesus). In 1Jn. 2:22 He is antichrist who denies the father and the son. Jesus is the Christ and he has a father is the truth -not a lie.
False trinitarian belief is also called heresy.
Benny Hinn taught the trinity is nine. If the Father is 3 and not one Father, that is antichrist and heresy also.
They both teach a lot of false things and make true Spirit filled believers look false and they both lay hands and people fall under what power?
faith-- forsake all I trust him. Baal-- believe apostacy all lost. bible-- believe in bible life eternal.
