Re: Triune Name/God?

something to consider:


Triune name, Triune God?

These three persons (Father, Son, and Holy Ghost) are one God
and
These three names (Lord, Jesus, and Christ) are one name

Would that be considered trinity or oneness?
Lord and Christ are epithets or titles. They describe His status (Lord) and His position as Messiah. Three names are not one name. Three persons are not One person. That is a false comparison.

The first is Trinitarianism very basically and undefined beyond persons. Actually it's confusing to many to know without an explanation what they mean by three persons are one God. The persons each have or share the same One Divine essence and Being...If I could put this into anthropomorphic terms, it would be like a three headed human, three persons all sharing the same body but each head has a different personality.

The second is not any sort of Theology, neither Oneness nor trinitarian

Apostolic is defined on AFF as:


  1. There is One God. This one God reveals Himself distinctly as Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
  2. The Son is God himself in a human form or "God manifested in the flesh" (1Tim 3:16)
  3. Every sinner must repent of their sins.
  4. That Jesus name baptism is the only biblical mode of water baptism.
  5. That the Holy Ghost is for today and is received by faith with the initial evidence of speaking in tongues.
  6. The saint will go on to strive to live a holy life, pleasing to God.
