In I Thessalonians there is proof that Jesus Christ is the one Lord God Almighty (Deut. 6:4, Isaiah 9:6, Luke 2:11)

There is no way we can convince an unbeliever that God is absolutely one Person, no matter what we say or what God says in the Old and New Testament about the oneness of Himself  (Job 13:6-11, Hebrews 1:3, 8).  God has told us He doesn't know of any other gods other than Himself.  Yet we have people who call themselves Christian who are trying to convince the world that God is three persons.  God never said it. 

Three persons in God is "a figment of man's imagination".  There is only one Person in God and that Person is Jesus Christ. (Colossians 2:8-12).  Three persons of God is an "asumption" made by men to try to understand who God is based on scriptures, in the New Testament, that they don't understand. 

The Trinity cannot be understood because God never spoke of a Trinity.  The Trinity is "a doctrine of men" developed at the Nicean Council 325AD.  Go to the Public Library and study to prove for yourself whether the Trinity is "a doctrine of men" or a doctrine of God.

Rather than trying to convince the world that God is three persons, which He didn't say, why not try to convince the world of God's oneness which He has declared throughout the ages.  Why not listen to the one God of heaven and earth when He speaks about His oneness in both the Old and New Testament? 

Jesus Christ has declared Himself to be the Almighty. Why not believe that Jesus Christ's Words are true.  Search the scriptures diligently to prove that what Jesus said is the absolute truth of who He is? 

Why not seek to understand the oneness of God and the fullness of the Godhead, which is in the body of Jesus Christ.  (Isaiah 9:6, John 14:6-11, Colossians 1:19, 2:8-12, Revelation 1:8). Why not obey the gospel? (Acts 2:38, II Thessalonians 1:7-8). 

The bride should know her groom and if she doesn't know him, why would she get married?  If you don't know Jesus Christ, then you don't know the Groom. Thus, God (Jesus Christ) will not marry you because He (the Groom) never knew you and you never knew Him.

I Thessalonians 1:1

Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of the Thessalonians which is in God the Father and in the Lord Jesus Christ: Grace be unto you, and peace, from God our Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ.

Translation:

This is a Greetings by Paul, and Silvanus, and Timotheus, unto the church of Thessalonians which is in the Spirit of God the Father in his heavenly place even the manifestation of himself on earth in the form of Jesus Christ. Grace be unto you, and peace, from God in his Spirit form as our Father, and his fleshly manifestation as the Lord Jesus Christ.

I Thessalonians 3:11

Now God himself and Our Father, and Our Lord Jesus Christ. This type scripture will cause you to take a second look, if you believe in “three persons in one God.” This scripture seems to suggest that there are three Gods, 1. God himself, and 2. our Father, 3. and our Lord Jesus Christ. This is not the best example but this is to let you see that there are times when scripture is written in a manner wherein it seems that there is an indication of more than one God or one more than one person in God. However, once you have received the revelation and mystery of Christ, you will see this type scripture in the following manner. Translation: God himself who is our Father and who is also our Lord Jesus Christ will direct our way unto you (I Corinthians 8:6). When we understand who Jesus is, we will see Jesus as the Lord God himself.

I Thessalonians 4:16

The Lord God himself shall descend. The Lord God shall come. Let’s take this scripture, Zechariah 14:5, to show you how God will say the same thing in a different way. The Lord my God shall come, and all the saints with thee. Now, let’s go back to I Thessalonians 4:16. The Lord himself, referring to Jesus Christ, shall descend form heaven.

Let’s look at Zechariah 14:9. Jesus is the one Lord and his name is one (Ephesians 4:4-6). We will not see any other God at the return of Jesus Christ.

Once we put all of the scriptures together according to our knowledge of Jesus Christ, we get this: God himself, who is Jesus Christ will descend back to the earth with a shout and his saints, who have the mystery and knowledge of Christ, will be with him.

Therefore we get another revelation that Jesus Christ is the one and only God of heaven and earth. This confirms the scripture in Isaiah 9:6, Colossians 1:19, 2:8-10 and Revelation 1:8, 11, 22:13. Jesus Christ is the embodiment of God. In other words, Jesus Christ is God Almighty.

There is no other Saviour, God doesn’t know of any other God (Isaiah 43: 10-13, 15, 44:6-8). God himself orchestrated the salvation of man. You will never understand the mystery of God until you understand that Jesus is the one Lord (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11). Once you have this revelation, God will open your understanding to his Word and to the synergy of the scriptures in both the Old and New Testaments. God has already told us on many occasions that there is only one Lord who is God. End of story. God will take vengeance on those who won’t obey the gospel (II Thessalonians 1:7-8).
