1 Tri-Unity

2 When I first began to study the Bible years ago, the doctrine of the Trinity was one of the most complex problems I had to encounter. I have never fully resolved it, for it contains an aspect of mystery. Though I do not totally understand it to this day, I accept it as a revelation of God. — Billy Graham When I first began to study the Bible years ago, the doctrine of the Trinity was one of the most complex problems I had to encounter.

10 The foundation of the Trinity

11 Deuteronomy 6:4-5 4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. 5 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.

12 Isaiah 44:6-8

13 The second foundation: the gospel

14 1 Corinthians 8:4-6 5 There may be so-called gods both in heaven and on earth, and some people actually worship many gods and many lords.6 But we know that there is only one God, the Father, who created everything, and we live for him. And there is only one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom God made everything and through whom we have been given life. 1 Cor 8:5-6 (NLT)

15 God is Father.

16 Matthew 6:9 9 "This, then, is how you should pray: " 'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name.' "

17 The Son is God.

18 Hebrews 1:1-9

19 The Holy Spirit is God.

20 Acts 5:3-4

21 1+1+1 = 1 It’s not math

22 At the center of the universe is a relationship.

23 Genesis 1:26-27 26 Then God said, "Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground."

24 Genesis 1:26-27 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them.

25 John 1:1-3 1 In the beginning the Word already existed. The Word was with God, and the Word was God.2 He existed in the beginning with God.3 God created everything through him, and nothing was created except through him. John 1:1-3 (NLT)

26 We most reflect God’s image when we love.

27 1 John 4:7-8 7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

28 Trinitarian Benediction

29 2 Corinthians 13:14 14 May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
