Reach God Just Through Him - Is That Record Correct

Have you any idea the One in whom you believe? In the event that you believe in God, you may not know who He's, along side His Son and His Holy Spirit? Why is even accurately knowing about God important?

The entire Bible clearly supplies all the information we need in order to find out about God,, His Son, and His Holy Spirit, so here, I'll briefly outline the basic and fundamental facts from the Bible, God's final written authority for us. Accurate information about God and Jesus is critical to our salvation. Read on...

God, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit comprise what we call the "Holy Trinity." The Holy Trinity is just a spiritual unity of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are "one" in a spiritual sense. To understand why oneness, we have to know what the Bible says about marriage. It says that whenever a man and woman marry, they become "one flesh": "Therefore a person will leave his father and his mother, and will join along with his wife, and they'll be one flesh." (Genesis 2:24, WEB) That doesn't literally imply that they become one person. What it indicates is they become "one" in spiritual unity. In exactly the same way, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are "one" in spiritual unity; they are not literally "one God" in a real sense. They share the exact same purpose, goals, and they interact harmoniously to attain their plans.

Jesus wishes all Christians to achieve this oneness, as he indicated in his prayer to the Father: "Holy Father, keep them throughout your name that you simply have given me, that they might be one, even while we are." (John 17:11)

Please also carefully read John 17:20-23, which says:

"Not for these only do I pray, however for those also who rely on me through their word, that they may all be one; even as you, Father, are in me, and I in you, that additionally they may be one in us; that the entire world may think that you sent me. The glory that you simply have given me, I have given to them; that they could be one, even while we are one; I in them, and you in me, that they may be perfected into one... "

The above passage helps us understand the thought of "oneness" or spiritual unity. Just because Pastor Chris oyakhilome the Father (Yahweh) and the Son (Jesus) are "one," all believers can be "one" with the Father and the Son. Did Jesus ask that most believers be literally one individual? Of course not; that might be absurd.

The concept of "oneness" is described in two other ways in the Bible: 1) we're one, and 2) you in me and I in you. For example, John 10:38 says, "The Father is in me [Jesus], and I in the Father." This verse often confuses people because they don't understand why spiritual oneness concept; they think that John 10:38 means that the Father (God) and the Son (Jesus) are exactly the same Person. On the contrary, it simply means that God and Jesus are "one" in a spiritual sense, not just a physical sense. When you see either kind with this wording in the Bible ("we're one" or "you in me and I in you"), you'll understand that this means the same thing.
