Does Paul believe in two persons in God - God the Father and the Lord Jesus Christ?

First of all Paul doesn't beleve in two nor three persons in God. Paul asked the Lord his name in Acts 9:1-5. Thus he knows God is one based on his Hebrew training and now he knows his name. He also understands that God manifested himself in the Flesh as the Lord Jesus Christ (John 1:10, I Timothy 3:16). So, how does Paul address the dual nature of God? Let's take a look at a few of Paul's revelations.

Ephesians 1:2,3

Verse 2. Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Translation: Grace be to you, and peace, from God who is our Father and from his manifestation as the Lord Jesus Christ.

Verse 3. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in heavenly places in Christ.

Translation: Blessed be the God who is the Spiritual Father of the flesh of our Lord Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ has blessed us with spiritual blessings in heavenly places in himself, who is also our heavenly Father, in Spirit form (Isaiah 9:6, I Corinthians 10:4).

Ephesians 1:1-16

Let’s take a look at how Paul addresses the dual nature of God. One would have to always keep in mind that God is one. This will never change, God will always be one. In I Timothy 3:16, It says, “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:……….This scripture explains that Jesus is God by saying, God was manifested in the flesh………. The dual nature of God is a mystery to the carnal mind.

However, to the spiritual mind and to the saint who believes in the oneness of God through revelation, it’s understandable Even though, I will explain this revelation to you, you will not get it if you don’t believe; for the scripture says, if this gospel is hid, it is hid to those that are lost. To understand Paul; here are some things we must keep in mind. God can;

1. Be in heaven and on earth at the same time. The Spirit of God always remained in heaven and yet that Spirit of God was in the body of Christ. This is the dual nature of God, human and divine. Same Spirit, same God. The Spirit of God can put himself in the body of Christ and declare that his glorified body has all power. (Colossians 1:14-19, 2:9, Matthew 28:18).

2. Reveal to us that all of his Spiritual power is now revealed in the body of Christ (Hebrews 1:1-3, 8). God made sure in these scriptures that we understand that His Spiritual form has taken on a glorified body. When we see the true God, he will appear as Jesus Christ (I John 5:20, Revelation 1:8, 11, 22:13). Then the Jews will mourn and weep because they did not recognize God, the Messiah, in his human form. Guess what? A number of Christians have not recognized Jesus as the One and only true God in his human form. On that special day appointed by the Lord, all nations will bow and recognize Jesus is the Lord God of heaven and of earth (Ephesians 3:9, 4:4-6, Isaiah 45:21-23, Philippians 2:10-11)

3. Have a name that has always been eternal (infinite). The prophets didn’t know God’s highest and eternal name (John 1:1, 3, 10, I Corinthians 10:4). The body of Jesus Christ was limited, it had a beginning (finite) and it had a human death. God put the infinite (name) and the finite (body) together. Therefore, there is one body, one person, and one name. It is a great mystery how God performed this miracle (John 14:6-11, I Timothy 3:16).

4. Show a distinction between the Spirit of God and the flesh of God so that we could understand, by revelation, what God was doing and how his manifestations were used to save man from his sins. God had to beget a lamb, and that lamb would be himself, God’s own flesh. (Acts 20:28, Revelation 1:5). The scriptures talk about the Father as “the Spirit” and it talks about the “Son” Jesus Christ as God’s fleshly manifestation (the Messiah). One God, dual nature – not two or three persons in one God. As aforementioned, God can be in heaven and on earth at the same time.

In light of this understanding, Paul said in verse 2. Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Translation: Grace and peace from the Spirit of God, the Father, even his fleshly manifestation (the Son) which we have seen here on earth.

Verse 3. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,……

Translation:

Blessed be the Heavenly Spirit, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who manifested himself to us in the form of Jesus Christ.

Verse 4. God tells us that we were chosen in Jesus Christ (God’s eternal name) before the foundation of the world and we should be holy and without blame before him (Jesus Christ).

Verse 5-9. It was a pleasure for him (the Spirit) to adopt us to himself by the blood of Jesus Christ, His fleshly manifestation because our adoption was predestined.

Did Paul explain the dual nature of Jesus Christ?

I Timothy 3:16

Paul explains the dual nature of God. Paul tells us that God was manifested in the flesh. This scripture is so direct and simple to me, that it hurts my heart when I see people who say they are believers in Christ and they can’t see the revelation of this scripture. This is one of the major scriptures that explains the whole concept of the knowledge and mystery of Christ.

Let’s take a look at how I have grown to understand this scripture. First of all, it’s extremely straight forward. We understand without question that there is a mystery of godliness, however, this scripture explains the manifestation of God and his oneness.

When this scripture tells us that God was manifested in the flesh, it is telling us that Jesus Christ is God (Isaiah 9:6, John 1:1,10,14).

Jesus is the only Person who came from God and was manifested as God (John 1:10). This is also one of the scriptures that clarifies for you my use of the word manifestations. In this scripture, we can see the synergistic effect of all the other scriptures which confirm that Jesus Christ is God himself and that there is no other God.

Research the following scriptures. These scriptures help us to know and believe in “The Deity of Christ,” the concept that Jesus is the only God.

In Isaiah 9:6, we see that Jesus is the everlasting Father and the mighty God.

In John 1:1, 3, 10,14. We see that Jesus is the Word, the creator who made the world. And we understand that the Word, who is God, was made flesh. The flesh of God is Jesus Christ, the most powerful God in the Universe (Acts 4:12).

In Colossians 1:14-19 and 2:9, we see that God is in the body of Jesus, the one Person in the Godhead. In I John 5:20, we see that Jesus is the only True God, and in Revelation 1:8, 11, we see that Jesus is the Almighty. There are so many more scriptures that verifies this scripture in Timothy.

Now, we understand that the God that was manifested in the flesh is Jesus Christ.

Jesus Christ is the God who was justified in the Spirit, through his death, burial and resurrection. God justified and glorified his own body which is the body of Christ (John 17:5, 21:19, II Corinthians 5:19, Colossians 1:14-19, 2:9).

Jesus Christ is the God who was seen of angels in his Spirit form as the Father of Creation, he was seen of angels at his birth, and he was seen of angels as he ascended back into heaven after his resurrection and glorification.

Jesus Christ is the God who was preached unto the Gentiles by Paul and the apostles (Acts 9:11-16, Romans 1:16, I Corinthians 1:24, Galatians 3:28, Colossians 3:11).

Jesus Christ is the God who was believed on in the world by the apostles, the Jews, and the Gentiles. Thank God for the love that he has shown toward the Gentiles of this world. For we are free to love the Lord Jesus Christ as our own Lord and Saviour.

Jesus Christ is the God who was received up into glory (Acts 1:9-11). The same way that Jesus ascended up into heaven, will be the same way he will return.

Upon his return all nations will bow and declare that Jesus is Lord (Deuteronomy 6:4). This scripture tells us that Jesus is the only God and he will return for the ones who believe and have the knowledge of him and who knows who he is (II Thessalonians 1:7-8).

If they would have known that Jesus Christ was the Lord they would have been washed in his blood (baptism in Jesus name, the rock upon which the church is built, and they would have received his Spirit (Acts 2:38).

Thank God for Jesus and the love that he has shown toward his dear saints who have the revelation of his glorious name.

In II Timothy 3:16 we see that we must study to show ourselves approved of God. Is I Timothy 3:16 and II Timothy 3:16 a coincidence. I don't think so. I think this is a message. We need to study so that we can understand that Jesus Christ is the one Lord of heaven and earth (Deuteronomy 6:4).

Note: This scripture, I Timothy 3:16, proves that Paul and the apostles would have been called historical Modalists. The apostles knew nothing about a Trinity, which was the official doctrine of Constantine’s empire.

Note: Satan put together a conspiracy against Jesus Christ and the Christian church in 325AD. In Today’s churches Paul and the apostles would be deemed heretics, based on the decisions made at the Nicene Council of Catholic Bishops which developed, over time, the Trinitarian doctrine of men, beginning in 325AD, well after Paul and the apostles were dead (Galatians 1:8-9). Let's take another look at the duality of Jesus Christ in Ephesians.

Ephesians 1:1-16

Let’s take a look at how Paul addresses the dual nature of God. One would have to always keep in mind that God is one. This will never change, God will always be one. In I Timothy 3:16, It says, “And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness:………. This means that there shouldn't be an arguement, God is a mystery.

This scripture explains that Jesus is God by saying, God was manifested in the flesh………. The dual nature of God is a mystery to the carnal mind. However, to the spiritual mind and to the saint who believes in the oneness of God through revelation, it’s understandable

Even though, I will explain this revelation to you, you will not get it if you don’t believe; for the scripture says, if this gospel is hid, it is hid to those that are lost. To understand Paul; here are some things we must keep in mind. God can;

1. Be in heaven and on earth at the same time. The Spirit of God always remained in heaven and yet that Spirit of God was in the body of Christ. This is the dual nature of God, human and divine. Same Spirit, same God. The Spirit of God can put himself in the body of Christ and declare that his glorified body has all power. (Colossians 1:14-19, 2:9, Matthew 28:18).

2. Reveal to us that all of his Spiritual power is now revealed in the body of Christ (Hebrews 1:1-3, 8). God made sure in these scriptures that we understand that His Spiritual form has taken on a glorified body. When we see the true God, he will appear as Jesus Christ (I John 5:20, Revelation 1:8, 11, 22:13). Then the Jews will mourn and weep because they did not recognize God, the Messiah, in his human form. Guess what? A number of Christians have not recognized Jesus as the One and only true God in his human form. On that special day appointed by the Lord, all nations will bow and recognize Jesus is the Lord God of heaven and of earth (Ephesians 3:9, 4:4-6, Isaiah 45:21-23, Philippians 2:10-11)

3. Have a name that has always been eternal (infinite). The prophets didn’t know God’s highest and eternal name (John 1:1, 3, 10, I Corinthians 10:4). The body of Jesus Christ was limited, it had a beginning (finite) and it had a human death. God put the infinite (name) and the finite (body) together. Therefore, there is one body, one person, and one name. It is a great mystery how God performed this miracle (John 14:6-11, I Timothy 3:16).

4. Show a distinction between the Spirit of God and the flesh of God so that we could understand, by revelation, what God was doing and how his manifestations were used to save man from his sins. God had to beget a lamb, and that lamb would be himself, God’s own flesh. (Acts 20:28, Revelation 1:5). The scriptures talk about the Father as “the Spirit” and it talks about the “Son” Jesus Christ as God’s fleshly manifestation (the Messiah). One God, dual nature – not two or three persons in one God. As aforementioned, God can be in heaven and on earth at the same time.

In light of this understanding, Paul said in verse 2. Grace be to you, and peace, from God our Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ.

Translation:
Grace and peace from the Spirit of God, the Father, even his fleshly manifestation (the Son) which we have seen here on earth.

Verse 3. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,……

Translation:
Blessed be the Heavenly Spirit, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who manifested himself to us in the form of Jesus Christ.

Verse 4. God tells us that we were chosen in Jesus Christ (God’s eternal name) before the foundation of the world and we should be holy and without blame before him (Jesus Christ).

Verse 5-9. It was a pleasure for him (the Spirit) to adopt us to himself by the blood of Jesus Christ, His fleshly manifestation because our adoption was predestined.

Ephesians 1:10-23

Jesus returns to heaven as a Spiritual being. Paul is revealing to us that Jesus Christ who was raised from the dead has been elevated back into his Spiritual form as the Father and that Jesus Christ is the head of the church and all principalities, powers and dominions. Paul understood who Jesus was and he expounded on this fact on every occasion he was allowed to preach.

The revelation of Jesus, as preached by Paul, is the understanding that not only was Jesus the Son of God in the flesh but he was and is God himself, the chief cornerstone (Matthew 28:18, Isaiah 9:6, I Timothy 3:16, Revelation 1:8, 22:13).

Is there a perversion of the gospel of Jesus Christ?

Galatians 1:6-10

Paul was concerned about a perversion of the gospel of Jesus Christ by some Jewish Christians who wanted to incorporate some other teachings that would pervert the teachings of Paul and the apostles. Paul was adamant that if any one comes to the saints with another gospel that they should be accursed. How does that relate to the doctrine of the Trinity?

Even though this scripture is not talking specially about the Trinity, the scripture says if any other gospel is preached to the saints, let him be accursed. Let’s look at the true gospel message in Acts 2:38. The doctrine of the Trinity would have been foreign to the apostle Paul because the Trinitarian doctrine doesn’t teach the baptism in Jesus name. The Trinitarian doctrine teaches the baptism in God’s titles (Matthew 28:19). And some Trinitarians teach that you don’t need the reception of the Holy Spirit. The Trinitarian doctrine was never delivered to the saints. The foundation of the Trinity was suggested at the Nicaean Council in 325 A.D., by the “Old Catholic Age Church Fathers.”

This doctrine was initiated by a Catholic Father by the name of Tertullian but it developed over the next four centuries. Trinitarianism is a perversion of the gospel, and according to Paul, if we, or an angel from heaven preach any other gospel, let him be accursed. We can see how strongly the apostle Paul felt about the perversion of the gospel because he said it again in verse 9. I feel Paul realized that there are some who would think that they can understand the mystery.

Galatians 1:11-12

There are some who might think that they can understand the mystery of God with human intellect. Let me assure you that the mystery and the revelation of the name of Jesus Christ will only come by the Spirit of Christ. Flesh and blood will not reveal this to you, neither will you understand the revelation and mystery of Christ from books. No library is big enough for you to find the knowledge, wisdom and revelation of Christ. Paul learned that Jesus was God by revelation. Think it not strange that you will understand the mystery of the revelation of Jesus Christ by the Spirit of God. When they knew God, they did not glorify him as God (Romans 1:19-22).

This is an edited excerpt from my book, "Understanding" the Trinity, Three Persons vs Three Manifestations.

Did Paul Suffer for Jesus Christ?

II Corinthians 12:6-9

Paul suffered in the flesh for Christ. Paul’s Hebrew name was Saul, in honor of King Saul, who was of the tribe of Benjamin. Saul was born at the beginning of the first century. He was born in the Graeco-Roman city of Tarsus located near the Mediterranean Sea. Saul was unique in that he had a Hebrew religion, a Greek culture, and a Roman citizenship. However, Saul was never ashamed to admit that he was Jewish. As a matter of fact, he was proud of his Jewish background. Saul was a very educated man who studied under the famous teacher, Gamaliel, who was considered one of the greatest teachers at that time.

Paul had a superior knowledge of the Old Testament and he studied the rabbinical teachings of highly educated and respected scholars of his day. Paul could have told the people that he was highly educated, he studied under Gamaliel, and that he had a revelation of God, of which, they were not privy. However, Paul didn’t want to make a fool of himself because he could tell the truth about his education and people would start looking at him like he was the person that they should look up to. Paul certainly didn’t want that to happen. God had given Paul so many revelations about himself that Paul could have boasted about how good he was and that he knew all of these things about God because of his wisdom and education.

God knows our flesh and how wicked it is, therefore, God allowed Satan to afflict Paul in the flesh. The Lord had given Paul the knowledge and mystery of Jesus Christ and Paul knew that Jesus was God in the flesh. God had given Paul the revelation that the same God who talked to the prophets in the Old Testament was the same God who talked to him on Damascus road (Acts 9:3-7, I Corinthians 10:4). However, this same God didn’t want Paul to get besides himself and think more of himself than he ought. Therefore, Paul had a constant reminder of his weakness, in the flesh, so that he would be dependent on God’s grace. This revelation was not for Paul to show how great he was but this revelation was to show the greatness of Christ.

I believe, Paul felt that he could handle all this wisdom, knowledge and revelations that God had bestowed upon him. That’s why, I believe, Paul asked the Lord three times to take away the thorn in his flesh. However, once God told Paul his grace was sufficient, Paul never returned to God to ask him about his condition. Therefore, think it not strange that God would put restraints on any individual who has great revelations about the Deity of Jesus Christ. We should not think more of ourselves than we ought. Just because we have the revelation, knowledge, and mystery of God, we are to carry ourselves in such a way that we can walk in the love of Jesus Christ. Our purpose is to take the revelation and true gospel of Jesus Christ to a dying world.

Paul had a special mission and that mission was to be a light to the Gentiles. God didn’t want Paul to boast about how great he was. Paul was to boast about the greatness and power of God through Christ. Paul was to teach the goodness and mercy of God to the Gentiles through the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Paul was to let them understand that they too could be saved through the power of God.

After his conversion, Paul was designated by God to bring the gospel to the Gentiles. God knew that Paul had to suffer for his name and he allowed Paul to go through his sufferings in the flesh so that God could be glorified and so that Paul could see God’s grace and love for him and the work that God called him to do. In Galatians, Paul continues his teachings about the Deity of Christ and the mystery of the gospel.

The Church of God In Christ - A beautiful Name for a Church

II Corinthians 5:19

To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself. There is a church that I know of called “The Church of God in Christ.” This name, I feel, was given to the Church founders by God because this name is the revelation of the Deity of God and that Christ is the fleshly body of God. This name is a wonderful revelation of the power and glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

The revelation of the name of Jesus (God in Christ) is the foundation of this whole book. God was in Christ; for God has said, this is my beloved Son in whom, I am well pleased (Matthew 3:17, 17:5, Mark 1:11, II Peter 1:17). Jesus said, if you had known me, you should have known the Father because the Father is in him and if we see him, we have seen the Father (John 14:6-11). Look at Colossians 1:14-19 and 2:9. Again, we see that God is in the body of Christ.

All scriptures will verify that God was in the body of Christ and will line up and agree in both the Old and New Testaments. Jesus is God (Lord). There is no other God; for God doesn’t know of any other God, save himself (Isaiah 43:11-13, 44:8). If I were to name a Church that would tell the story of this book and who Jesus is, it would be “The Church of God in Christ.” This is a fantastic name for a church. And if there is unbelief in this gospel message of “God in Christ” then we as Christians, should not be unequally yoked with unbelievers.

II Corinthians 6:14-16

Don’t be unequally yoked with unbelievers. The Lord admonishes us to stay away from unbelievers. If there are people who profess the Lord and yet don’t believe that Jesus is God (the Christ) they are none of us. Look at verse 16. God shows us that he dwells in us and he would be our God. Guess what? God’s name is Jesus Christ because Jesus is the one who dwells in us
and we are his people and he is our God and the Rock of our Salvation.

There is only one God and his name is Jesus Christ (Isaiah 9:6, John 1:10, I Corinthians 10:4, Acts 9:5, Revelation 1:8). These are scriptures that is a proclamation of fact that Jesus Christ is the one Lord God Almighty.

Search the scriptures for in them, you think you have eternal life. You will think that you believe in One God and you won’t know him as the Lord Jesus Christ.

Thus you won’t get washed in his blood which is one of the main tenants of salvation; the baptism in Jesus name (I Peter 3:21, Acts 2:38, Acts 19:1-5, Romans 6:3-4, Galatians 3:27, Colossians 2:12, 3:17).

Be on guard because Satan will present false teachers, with glowing speeches, who will call themselves followers of Christ and they are not.

II Corinthians 11:12-15

False teachers who call themselves followers of Christ. It is not always easy to recognize false teachers. These teachers call themselves followers of Christ and they are not.

The following are some guidelines to recognize false teachers; (II Peter 2:1).

1. False teachers don’t believe Jesus is God the Father (Isaiah 9:6, John 14:9).

2. False teachers don’t believe Jesus is the only true God (The Christ and the One Lord – Ephesians 4:5, I John 5:20, Titus 1:16).

3. False teachers don’t believe that Jesus is the Jehovah who spoke to the prophets in the Old Testament (Jehovah Saviour) (Acts 10:36, I Corinthians 10:4, Ephesians 4:5).

4. False teachers don’t believe it is necessary to be baptized in Jesus name as directed by the apostles. Some believe that you don’t have to be baptized at all (Acts 2:38).

5. False teachers baptize in the titles mentioned in Matthew 28:19 because they don't know Christ (John 14:7, Titus 1:16).

6. False teachers don’t teach repentance and baptism in Jesus Name (They say, you only have to confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and you are saved). This phrase is not according to Mark 16:16, Acts 2:38, water and Spirit.

7. False teachers will speak/teach against the baptism in Jesus name, the rock upon which the church is built and the gates of hell shall not prevail against this baptism in Jesus name (Matthew 16:18, Book of Acts).

8. False teachers boast of their accomplishments and their desire for the riches of this world, using the gospel of Christ to satisfy their lusts (Titus 1:10-16).

9. False teachers will try to control the mind and hearts of God’s people so that the people will glorify them (the false teacher) rather than Christ (II Timothy 4:3)

10. False teachers will preach against Jesus being the only God. They don’t believe Jesus is God - "the Christ" (Revelation 1:8)(that preacher is an antichrist, I John 2:22-23).

11. False teachers don’t believe in the reception of the Holy Spirit and speaking in other tongues as the Spirit gives utterance (Acts 2:1-6).

12. False teachers cannot understand the mystery of the gospel because it is hid from them (II Corinthians 4:3-6, I John 5:20).

Today these false teachers and preachers will persecute the real child of God just as they persecuted Paul and the apostles. Paul suffered in the flesh for Christ, and in their persecution of Paul, they thought they were doing God a favor.

is the gospel and mystery of Jesus Christ hid to the lost?

II Corinthians 4:3-6

Gospel and knowledge of Jesus Christ is hid to the lost. The Lord tells us in the aforementioned scripture (II Corinthians 3:13-18) that the children of Israel cannot see him because of the veil. Likewise, the Gentiles cannot see the mystery of Jesus because of unbelief.

I do believe that the Jews will be given another opportunity to accept their Messiah - Jesus Christ. The Gentiles will have had their opportunity to follow the directions of Peter in Acts 2:38, the first sermon of the great commission. (Matthew 16:18-19, 28:19, Acts 2:38). The Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost is Jesus Christ and the keys of the kingdom of heaven are #1. Repent #2. Be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for remission of sins #3. Receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. (II Thessalonians 1:7-8).

I am really concerned about the ones who choose not to see or cannot see the gospel and mystery of Christ; for the scriptures tell us, they are lost. You must understand that there is one person in the Godhead and God has given us the understanding of the knowledge and mystery of Christ. The knowledge of the glory of God is seen in the face of “one person,” Jesus Christ and we are complete in him (Colossians 2:9-10, Hebrews 1:3,8).

I would like to admonish you to prayerfully search the scriptures with all your heart and soul and the Lord will reveal himself to you. Then go to Acts 2:38 and follow the directions that were given to Peter and the apostles by our Lord Saviour Jesus Christ. The gates of hell shall not prevail against the rock of our salvation, which is the baptism in Jesus name. The name of Jesus Christ is the Rock upon which the church is built by baptism. (Matthew 16:18-19).

We put on the rock by the baptism in Jesus name. (Acts 2:38, Galatians 3:27). The importance of the gospel message is that God was in Christ and salvation is in his name by baptism. (the Rock) (John 1:10, Romans 6:3-4, I Corintians 10:4, II Corinthians 5:19, Colossians 2:12, Revelation 1:8).

Is Jesus Christ the Rock (God) of Israel?

I Corinthians 10:1-4

Jesus is the Rock (God) of Israel. The first thing we must understand is that God is the Rock of Israel (Deuteronomy 32:1-4). Let’s look at II Samuel 22:2-3. God is our rock, our salvation and our Saviour. Wait a minute, our Saviour? How many saviours do we have? Isn’t Jesus Christ our Saviour (Luke 2:11)? God is the rock of our salvation (II Samuel 22:47). Guess what? That’s right. According to the New Testament, Jesus is the rock of our salvation. Look at this: (II Samuel 22:32). For who is God, save the Lord? And who is a rock, save our God? How can the Bible be more explicit than this? These scriptures show us without a doubt that God is our rock and that rock is our Lord Jesus Christ.

In Psalms 18:2, God again explains to us that he is our rock, deliverer and the horn of our salvation. Look at Psalms 18:31. God tells us again the same thing that he said in II Samuel 22:32. For who is God save the Lord? And who is a rock save our God? Who is God save the Lord. One Lord = Jesus Christ = Jesus is Lord God Almighty. (Acts 10:36, Revelation 1:8,11, 22:13).

Now that we have established that God is the rock, let’s get an understanding through the scriptures that Jesus is that Rock and that Jesus is the only God. Look at this scripture: (I Corinthians 10:4). “And did all drink the same spiritual drink: for they drank of that spiritual Rock that followed them: and that Rock was Christ.” Guess what? Christ had not been born yet. God is letting us know through Paul that the name of his Spirit is Jesus Christ (the Rock of our salvation). In Matthew 16:18-19, Jesus gives Peter the keys to lay the foundation of salvation on his name which is the Rock. Let’s look at Acts 2:38. The foundation of salvation is laid on the Rock – Jesus Christ. How was the name and Rock, Jesus Christ, used in salvation?

The name and Rock were used by the baptism in Jesus name for remission of sins. The name of Jesus Christ is the Rock of our salvation. Upon this Rock Jesus built the Church and the gates of hell will not prevail against it. Why would God say that the gates of hell would not prevail? In my mind, God knew in his infinite wisdom that Satan would try to destroy the true gospel of Jesus Christ. The true gospel message is wrapped up in Acts 2:38 and God will not allow Satan to destroy it.

Therefore to understand what God is saying and how the message of salvation is built on a rock, one must believe that Jesus Christ is the same God and the same Rock who talked to Moses, the prophets, and Paul on Damascus Road (Luke 24:27). He is our refuse, the horn of our salvation and our Saviour. Jesus Christ is the one who followed the children of Israel out of Egypt, in his Spirit form, as the Father (I Corinthians 10:4). Therefore, salvation is built on the power of Jesus name by baptism. Jesus Christ is the one God of our salvation and The Rock of Israel.

This scripture in Corinthians is so plain that sometimes I wonder, how many scriptures does God need for one to believe that Jesus Christ is the one and only true God of heaven and earth.

Look at this: John 13:19, 20. Jesus says, whomsoever I send, in my Spirit form as the Father, receiveth me and he that receiveth me receiveth the God that sent me. Jesus is saying I’m God and I sent myself, in the flesh, as the Son of God. And whosoever receives the Son, receives the Father also (I John 2:21-23). Why? Because the Father is in the body of Jesus(Colossians 1:14-19, 2:9). If you receive the Son, you will receive the Father because Jesus is the Father (Isaiah 9:6, John 14:9).

is the one true God's name Jesus Christ?

I Corinthians 8:6-7

There is one God. The Old Testament and the New Testament proclaims the oneness of God. Jesus Christ is the Father and the one mighty God who visited the earth in the flesh (Isaiah 9:6, John 1:10, 14, John 14:9). Jesus Christ created all things in heaven and earth, and he and he alone is God (John 1:10, Colossians 1:14-19). How is it that all men won’t believe the revelation of these things based on the scriptures?

If one would only believe in the name and doctrine of Christ, then they would be saved. Believers will repent, get baptized in the name of Jesus for remission of sins, for a good conscience toward God, then receive the Holy Spirit (I Peter 3:21, Acts 2:38). In the Revised Standard Version and the Twentieth Century New Testament Version of the Bible, good conscience is translated as “clear conscience” toward God.

Remember, salvation is built on the name of Jesus Christ, the Rock, by baptism which gives us a clear conscience toward God (Acts 4:12, Romans 6:4, Colossians 2:12, Colossians 3:17). Jesus Christ is the rock of Israel and the Rock of our salvation. In other words, the baptism in Jesus name is the rock upon which the church is built. (Matthew 16:18-19, Acts 2:38).

Should I follow the Apostles Doctrine, the Doctrine of Christ, or the Doctrine of God?

Acts 2:42

This scripture is used by the Apostolic Church to identify their doctrine and their church. The apostles’ doctrine is used interchangeable with the doctrine of God (Titus 2:10) and the doctrine of Christ (2 John 1:9), which means the doctrine that was taught to the apostles by Christ who is God. Therefore, the doctrine of Christ is the doctrine of God. Matthew 7:28,
Romans 16:17-18, Ephesians 4:11-14.

Many Christians don’t understand why Churches have the word “Apostolic” in the name of their Churches. To learn more about the Apostolic doctrine, I would suggest that you research Oneness Apostolic Churches. Apostolic means – those Christians who follow the doctrine of the apostles which is the doctrine of Christ/doctrine of God. It is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ, repentance, remission of sins, receiving the Holy Ghost with the evidence of speaking in other tongues and the baptism in Jesus name as directed by Peter and the apostles (Acts 2:38-42, Acts 19:1-5, Romans 6:3-4, Galatians 3:27, Colossians 2:12).

Kindle, Wi-Fi, 6" E Ink Pearl DisplayAccording to believers who follow the apostles doctrine, if anyone would call themselves Apostolic and don’t baptize in Jesus name, they are not true Apostolics, in the strictest sense of the word and have strayed from the faith (Acts 8:14-17). They don’t understand the mystery of Christ (Matthew 28:19 and Acts 2:38). There are three baptisms (Hebrews 6:2);

1st Key: Baptism of repentance (Natural-Mark 1:4 - Baptism by John, fulfilled in Acts 2:38)

2nd Key The baptism in Jesus name (Natural & Spiritual) (fulfilled in Acts 2:38)

3rd Key The baptism of the Holy Ghost (Spiritual) (Luke 3:16)(fulfilled in Acts 2:38).

The reference to the baptism of repentance, baptism in Jesus name, and baptism in the Holy Ghost is fulfilled in the water baptism in Jesus name (Acts 2:38, Ephesians 4:5, Colossians 2:10-12). Note: These baptisms is one operation of one baptism in Jesus name and they are also “the keys of the kingdom of heaven” that Jesus gave to Peter (Matthew 16:18-19). The baptism in Jesus Name is the “rock” upon which the church is built and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Acts 2:38 is the real “born again” scripture, for it is the only scripture that has all of the elements of the gospel message (water and Spirit – John 3:5). (The commission: Matthew 28:19, Fulfilled: Acts 2:38 – The name in Matthew 28:19 is revealed as Jesus Christ in Acts 2:38. Jesus Christ is the everlasting Father, the Son, and Holy Ghost (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11, Isaiah 9:6, Matthew 1:23, John 1:10, Colossians 1:19, 2:9, II Corinthians 5:19, Revelation 1:8)

Therefore, when there is any mention of baptism, that one baptism is in water and Spirit in Jesus name. Refer: Book of Acts 8:35-39, Mark 16:16. There is no other name whereby we must be saved except through the name of Jesus Christ by baptism (Acts 4:12, 19:1-5, Colossians 3:17). The scriptures are extremely plain and soft spoken to those that believe. For unbelievers, this is a hard saying and they will try to explain it away by their own traditions of unbelief. Not realizing that they are being used by the spirit of the antichrist - against Christ and the Word of God.

Don’t find it strange that some don’t believe in the baptism in Jesus name. Everybody didn’t believe Jesus when he walked on the earth, neither did everyone believe the apostles. The Priests, Scribes, Pharisees and the “so called educated people” thought the apostles were unlearned men so they wouldn’t listen to them. However, they did recognize that they had been with Jesus.

I don’t expect everyone to believe because only God can give his revelation, mystery, and knowledge of Jesus Christ. There will be people whom you respect for their intelligence and leadership abilities but they won’t believe the Word of God nor will they understand what you are showing them.

God has not given his mystery to the ones who think that they are so wise, educated, and intelligent. God has given his mystery to babes in Christ. God will give his revelation to anyone who has a heart for Christ and the ones who would diligently seek to know the mystery and knowledge of Him. You might feel very sad that these educated people won’t believe. But you must remember; God gave you the revelation and mystery of Christ and it’s time for you to live in the light that God has given you. You must go on and believe the Word of God and follow the directions of the apostles, especially the born again scripture in Acts 2:38, which is the Rock and foundation of the gospel of Jesus Christ.

If people won’t believe God and the instructions he gave to Peter, God has the wisdom to deal with their unbelief. I would suggest that you show them the Word, pray for them and move on lest you fall into the same traditions of unbelief and philosophies of men (Colossians 2:8-12). Don’t try to pull them along, they will not be able to see the mystery of Christ because of their unbelief. Satan doesn’t want you to understand the oneness of God which is in the body of Christ nor does he want you to understand the plan of salvation as it relates to John 3:5 and Acts 2:38.

Satan trembles at the very thought of the oneness of God and he will use the people you respect to dissuade you from the belief in the oneness of God and the knowledge and mystery of Christ (James 2:19-23). The people you respect have faith without works. The works is the baptism in Jesus name. You must show your faith with works by the baptism in Jesus name. If they won’t hear you, knock the dust off your feet and move on, they can’t see neither can they hear because their unbelief has seared their consciousness. They won’t realize that they are in error and they don’t understand. Pray for them and move on.

Who was Apollos and what is "the more perfect way?"

A More Perfect Way - A Story about Apollos


Paul stayed in Corinth with Aquila and Priscilla for a year and a half and worked with them because he was also a tent maker. After a year and a half, Paul moved with them to Ephesus where Aquila and Priscilla offered their home to the Christians for church service. While in Ephesus, Aquila and Priscilla met Apollos who was speaking in the synagogue about the gospel that John had taught him concerning repentance and baptism. When they heard him speak, they took him aside and taught him the way of God more perfectly (Acts 18:24-26).

What was the more perfect way? The more perfect way taught by Aquila and Priscilla was that Jesus is God, “the Christ,” and that the disciples of Apollos should be baptized in Jesus name, rather than the baptism of repentance taught by John. When Apollos went to the brethren in Achaia, he convinced the Jews, by the scriptures that Jesus was God, the Christ. (Acts 18:28).

Aquila and Priscilla risked their lives for the gospel that Paul was preaching because they knew Paul was right according to the scriptures. Paul preached that Jesus was God (“The Christ”) and you must repent, be baptized in Jesus name and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit according to Peter (Acts 2:38) and Paul (Acts 19:1-5). Aquila and Priscilla believed Paul’s teachings were right according to the scriptures, therefore, they were willing to suffer with him. Paul acknowledged their hard work and gave thanks to them for their sacrifice (Romans 16:3-4).

Paul Teaches the baptism in Jesus name (Acts 18:8, 19:1-5, Acts 19:1-5, Romans 6:3-4, Galatians 3:27, Colossians 2:12)

When Paul started his teaching mission to the Gentiles, he came to Corinth and approved the baptism of Crispus and many of the Corinthians, who believed on the Lord. They baptized them in the name of the Lord Jesus (Acts 4:12, I Corinthians 1:9-31-Trinity?).

We know Paul approved the baptism of the Corinthians in Jesus name because that was the only way he had people baptized. For example, When Paul was traveling the upper coasts of Ephesus he found 12 disciples of John and Apollos. Paul asked them if they had received the Holy Ghost since they believed. The disciples hadn’t heard about the Holy Ghost.

Therefore, Paul asked them about their baptism because when the saints were taught about salvation and receiving the Holy Spirit, they were taught to be baptized in Jesus name.

The disciples explained that they were baptized unto John’s baptism. Paul explained to the disciples that John baptized unto repentance and they should believe on the one who would come after John. When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Let me ask you a question? Why would these disciples get baptized in Jesus name without giving reasons why they should not? The reason: They believed on the name of the Lord Jesus and got baptized in Jesus name without question because there is no other name whereby we are saved. Why are today’s Christians so critical about the Jesus name baptism? The reason is that the spirit of the anti-christ is in the world today and that spirit is against anything associated with Jesus name, including baptism in the name of the Lord(Acts 19:1-5).

According to Paul’s teachings we are to search the scriptures to find out whether Jesus is God and to understand that we should repent, be baptized in Jesus name, and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit. Listen, Paul’s teaching is the same gospel that Peter preached on the day of Pentecost (Acts 2:14-38). And this gospel of Jesus Christ is the same gospel that was taught to Apollos by Aquila and Priscilla who were disciples of Paul.

Today: You can learn “a more perfect way” through your personal research of the scriptures. You will also learn about the faith, actions, and teachings of the apostles as mentioned in the book of Acts. Use the King James version of the Bible as your primary reference.

We would have to search for ourselves to see if we are really teaching as Paul taught the Jews in the synagogues or are we teaching a doctrine based on the traditions of men? All Pastors, preachers, teachers, evangelist and scholars; should search the scriptures and follow the lead of Apollos and understand that there is “a more perfect way.”

Let’s understand that preachers have not all obeyed the gospel. Romans 10:14-16. Firstly, let’s discuss Apollos and his life so that we canunderstand who he was, why he was open to learning more about Jesus, and the meaning of “a more perfect way.”

Apollos was a Jew from Alexandria, Egypt

Jews for the most part, wrote the Bible and started Christianity. However in these last days Christianity has been perverted by the Gentiles who started bringing in a pagan styled “three person” concept of who God is; in conjunction with their traditions of men (Colossians 2:8-12). There is no "there persons" in God based on the "Shema". Jews, Muslims and true oneness Christians believe that God is strictly monotheistic with no other persons with him. (Isaiah 44:24).

However, there are preachers who are like Apollos and would like to learn more about the gospel of Christ so that they might follow the dictates of Jesus Christ and the doctrine of the apostles. Some pastors and preachers of today also want to find a more perfect way. They are willing to drop their philosophy and traditions of men for the true gospel of Jesus Christ.

Apollos was an eloquent man who was well versed in the Old testament scriptures. He wanted to find out whether all things that he was learning were true. Apollos being a Jew, understood the oneness of God and he knew, based on his training, that Jesus would be the same God who spoke to the prophets out of heaven in the Old Testament (Corinthians 10:4).

Apollos was an exciting man, a preacher and missionary who was fervent in the spirit. He taught the things of the Lord and that the coming of the Kingdom of God was near. Based on his knowledge of the scriptures, Apollos taught his followers that John was the one crying in the wilderness and people should come to repentance and be baptized according to John’s baptism.

The only thing that Apollos knew was what John had taught him (Acts 18:24-26). He knew that the person of whom John would identify, would be God, “the Christ.” The Jews only believe in one God, and that one God, they knew; would be the Christ, in the form of a man (Isaiah 9:6).

Look at these scriptures, Isaiah 40:3, Matthew 3:3, John 1:1-14. We know that; not only is Jesus the one Lord (Ephesians 4:5, Isaiah 41:4, Luke 2:11, Revelation 1:11) but he is also the one God Almighty (Isaiah 9:6, 40:5, 41:10-11, 48:12, Revelation 1:8). Apollos knew based on John’s teachings that Jesus, who is called “The Christ,” would be the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, no question about it.

Once Apollos found out from Aquila and Priscilla that one should be baptized in Jesus name and filled with the Holy Spirit; he started teaching the disciples of John that there was “a more perfect way.” (Acts 18:28).

We know that the baptism in Jesus name and receiving the Holy Spirit was taught to Apollos because Aquila and Priscilla were disciples of Paul who taught the same gospel everywhere he went (Acts 19:1-5). Therefore, Apollos becomes a disciple of Paul through Aquila and Priscilla. He started preaching the same things (Jesus is God, “The Christ” and the baptism in Jesus name was right and that John’s baptism was a forerunner to the real baptism in Christ).

In the same manner as Apollos, preachers today are eloquent, speak well, articulate, strong in the scriptures and men of God who have walked with the Lord for years. However, they need to know “a more perfect way” as it was taught by Paul and the apostles.

A number of modern day preachers have received training in the Old and New Testaments. Being strong in the scriptures they should search the scriptures further. With the new light of the scriptures, Bible scholars will see the same things in the scriptures that was revealed to Apollos, Peter, Paul, Aquila and Priscilla.

Today preachers should search for the oneness of God and “How to be Born Again,” in the New Testament. They should search the scriptures to find out whether these things are true or not (Matthew 28:19, Acts 2:38).

Warning: If it were possible, Satan will deceive the very elect.

Most Churches today are in a state of apostasy – meaning the turning away from an original concept, belief, or doctrine. These Churches are not teaching the apostles doctrine as taught by Paul and the apostles. They teach a doctrine called the “Trinitarian doctrine", which is not in the Bible. The Trinity of God is "an assumption", "a figment of man's imagination."

The Trinitarian doctrine sounds possible based on our limited human knowledge of who God is. However, to the elect, the Trinitarian doctrine is not a concept of who God is. The Trinity is totally unscriptural and confusing. It can’t be explained, as a matter of fact, it’s impossible to explain, and it can’t be understood based on the scriptures.

Satan has tried to deceive the very elect with this Trinitarian doctrine - if it were possible. We can see Satan’s wicked devices and they have not worked. God is still in control and the gates of hell shall not prevail against the solid rock which is the baptism in Jesus name upon which the church is built (Matthew 16:18).

I challenge anyone to explain the Trinity using the scriptures without interjecting their personal belief, traditions or interpretations. It is impossible to explain. Let me give you a simple research project. Search the Bible and see if you can find any scripture anywhere that defines God as three persons. Let me give you the answer for your convenience. There are no scriptures that refer to God as “three persons.” There are not “three gods in one nor three persons in one God.” There is only one God - period. Ask the Jews and the Muslims and they will set you straight. Judaism, Islam, and true apostolic oneness Christianity are strictly monotheistic. Perverted Christianity is the "Trinitarian Doctrine" (Nicaean Council 325 A.D.).

The total salvation of man was carried out by one God who manifested himself in three different forms (I Timothy 3:16). Moses said there is one God, the Prophets said it, the apostles said it, and God himself said it. That settles the question of the absolute oneness of God.

Why don’t people, whether they are preachers, teaches or theologians, believe there is only one God? Who told them that God has three persons residing in his Deity? The reason people won’t believe in the total oneness of God is because they won’t accept the Deity of Jesus Christ (God himself -John 1:1-14, 14:9, Revelation 1:8). They can’t accept the notion that Jesus is the Father of creation, Son in redemption, and the Holy Ghost as an indwelling Spirit. The problem is the unbelief that Jesus Christ is the one and only true God of heaven and earth. Jesus Christ is the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. (Matthew 28:19, John 14:6-9, 17-18, Acts 2:38).

As aforementioned, there are preachers, teachers and evangelists who will tell you, if anyone challenges the Trinitarian doctrine, don’t listen to them.

Listen very carefully, Satan don’t want you to disapprove of the Trinitarian doctrine. The reason Trinitarians don’t want you to listen to anyone is because it would challenge their own concept of the three persons of God. They can’t explain their own belief in one God in light of the Trinitarian doctrine because it is not a sound doctrine (II Timothy 4:3) For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
(Titus 1:9) Holding fast the faithful word as he hath been taught, that he may be able by sound doctrine both to exhort and to convince the gainsayers.
(Titus 2:1) But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine:. Trinitarians would say that nobody can explain the Trinity, it’s a mystery of God. And they are absolutely correct. The Trinity can not be explained nor understood because God didn't say it.

Guess what? Even if they tried to explain the Trinity, you wouldn’t understand it. They would say, well this is just a mystery of God that nobody understands. Not true, the mystery of God can be explained and it’s all over the Old and New Testament. Jesus Christ is the chief cornerstone and foundation of the Holy Scriptures (Matthew 16:18). The rock is the baptism in Jesus name and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. Search for the Deity of Jesus Christ and you will find the oneness of the Almighty God (Revelation 1:8).

Warning: This statement is a trick of Satan; “The Trinitarian doctrine should not be challenged.”

That’s not true. Of course the Trinitarian doctrine can be challenged because it is not a doctrine of God, it is a doctrine of men. The Trinity was conceived and established by men at the Nicaean Council in 325 A.D. after contentions among the Catholic priests. This doctrine of the Trinity developed over the centuries and we, as Protestants, have grown to believe that this doctrine is the truth of God's Word. God never spoke of this doctrine and it’s not mentioned by Paul nor any of the apostles.

Therefore, the Trinity can be challenged because it’s not in the Bible. Not challenging nor questioning the Trinitarian doctrine is a device that Satan uses to keep the Church blind to the true Gospel of Jesus Christ.

The Trinitarian doctrine can’t be logically nor scripturally explained. It is based on philosophy, vain deceit and it is a doctrine that is a tradition of men (Colossians 2:8-10). Look up the origin of the Trinity in your Public Library.

The Trinitarian doctrine is so convincing that this concept would deceive the very elect if it were possible (Matthew 24:24). There will be many who will not believe the gospel of Christ, the oneness of God, nor the baptism in the name of Jesus Christ because of the false traditional teachings of the Trinitarian doctrine.

Through my experience, I have found that the main concern with Trinitarians is their understanding of the Deity of Christ and the baptism in Jesus name. There are some who would say that they love the Lord and they will follow God’s Word. However, they won’t believe nor follow the Word of God concerning baptism. They don’t want you to preach or teach the baptism in Jesus Name. They will throw you out of their Churches because they don’t believe in the Deity of Christ and the oneness of God, especially if it’s in Jesus name. They profess Jesus Christ but they don’t want to be totally associated nor identified with his name by baptism. This unbelief in the baptism in Jesus name is the spirit of the antichrist (against Jesus name).

The gospel that we teach is the same gospel taught by Peter, Paul, and the apostles and it has the same affect on unbelievers today as it did in the days of the apostles. God allows us to see those who are none of his. For they wrestle with the scriptures because of their unbelief (II Peter 3:16).

Under what name should I be baptized? (Acts 4:12, Colossians 3:17)

I Corinthians 1:6-31

Under what name were you baptized? This is another occasion wherein Paul admonishes the saints to speak the same things. The Church had started to be divided because some of the saints were talking about whose teaching and whose discipleship they were under. Paul let them understand that Christ is not divided, and he, Paul, was not crucified for them. Verse 13-15. Paul lets them know that they were not baptized in the name of Paul.

This lets us know that the baptisms were carried out in a person’s name. Therefore, Paul is giving us an indication that the apostles baptized in the name of Jesus Christ because Jesus Christ is the one who was crucified for their sins (Acts 2:38, 4:12, Colossians 3:17).

Jesus will destroy the wisdom of the wise. How will Jesus destroy the wisdom of the wise? We have theologians, writers, unbelievers and disputers who will try to use the wisdom of this world to prove that Jesus is not the one and only true God (Revelation 1:8). They will for example, use the Trinitarian doctrine to try to prove that there are three persons in God and that Jesus Christ is just one of the three.

Paul says in II Thessalonians 2:9-11 that Satan will deceived them because they would not believe. God will send them strong delusions so that they will believe a lie rather than the truth. God will take the knowledge of all these brilliant theologians, scholars, professors, preachers and evangelists who don’t believe Jesus is the only God and show them how foolish they are. These “so called,” brilliant minds will try to explain who Jesus is and how to be born again. Not realizing that their teachings are the complete opposite to the teaching of Paul and the apostles (Galatians 1:8-9).

In Romans 16:17-18, Paul warns us to avoid them because they don’t serve our Lord Jesus Christ. They will have great speeches which will satisfy themselves. These same speeches will also deceive simple people. In II Timothy 4:10, Paul wrote to Timothy that there would come a time when they won’t endure sound doctrine and they will turn away from the truth and will believe fables. The Trinitarian doctrine is a doctrine of fables. It is not a sound doctrine, its not in the Bible, it can’t be explained and it can’t be understood. This paganistic doctrine is not a cohesive doctrine.

The foundation of the Trinitarian doctrine is that there are three persons that make one. It’s incomprehensible how scholars can believe in such a doctrine because it’s definitely not true. Simple logic tells us that three persons can’t be one God. There is only one God and one Person in the Godhead – period. (Hebrews 1:3, Colossians 2:8-9). How many times must God say it? When will we believe God’s report? Three persons in one God is "an assumption", "a figment of man's imagination" made at the Nicean Council 325AD. God never said He is three persons and the apostles never taught nor heard of a trinitarian doctrine (Galatians 1:8-9).

Look at Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11, Hebrews 1:3. Do you see one Lord and one Person? Why is it that scholars and theologians will try to develop their own method of salvation, using a Trinitarian formula in speech and baptism? They will tell you, all you have to do is to say, “Lord Jesus come into my life,” and you are saved. They don’t say anything about repentance, baptism in Jesus name for remission of sins, nor the reception of the Holy Spirit according to the first act of salvation in Acts 2:38. They will baptize in the titles of God and not his name because they don’t know him. – Matthew 28:19. God’s method of salvation is foolishness to them.

They have perverted the gospel and the foundation which is based on the name of Jesus Christ "Baptism in Jesus name" is “The Rock of our salvation" and the gates of hell shall not prevail against the baptism in Jesus name. (Matthew 16:18-19)

Jesus Christ is the only God and the only name whereby we must be saved. Again, Jesus Christ being the only God and that you must be baptized in his name is foolishness to them that are without. They will never understand who Jesus is because of their traditions of unbelief. (I Corinthians 1:20, 2:14, Colossians 1:19, 2:8-9).

In the end, Jesus will destroy the wisdom of the wise and prudent and make them look like fools. He will prove that there is one God and that he is that one God and his name is Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour (Isaiah 43:10-13, Luke 2:11, I Corinthians 10:4, Acts 9:5). If Jesus Christ has to prove the gospel to you at his coming, how will you explain your unbelief at the time of his visitation?

The wisdom of this world doesn’t know God, therefore, he will tell them who he is by the foolishness of preaching and it will please the Lord to save them that believe. Why is preaching foolishness? (I Corinthians 2:7). It’s foolish because believers already know and understand that salvation is in Jesus name and that Jesus is the only true God (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11, Isaiah 9:6, John 1:1-14, I Timothy 3:16, I John 5:20, Jude 25, Revelation 1:8, 22:13). Preaching is for sinners to come to Christ and he will save them if they believe. On the other hand, if you don’t believe, preaching won’t help you (Mark 16:16).

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: What is the Apostles doctrine vs the doctrine of C...: The doctrine of Christ/God is based on the oneness of God and the one Lord Jesus Christ. The apostles doctrine and the doctrine of Christ ...

What is the Apostles doctrine vs the doctrine of Christ/God?

The doctrine of Christ/God is based on the oneness of God and the one Lord Jesus Christ. The apostles doctrine and the doctrine of Christ is the belief that Jesus is the one Lord, “The Christ - The Messiah,” being born again, repentance, using the name of Jesus Christ in baptism for remission of sins and receiving the Spirit in the name of Jesus Christ who is the Holy Spirit (Acts 2:38). The whole gospel message is based on the name of Jesus Christ, which is called the apostles doctrine, the doctrine of Christ and the doctrine of God. These doctrine are used interchangeably in the scriptures.

The apostles doctrine is based on the name and doctrine of Christ because Jesus Christ is the one God who is also our Saviour, (Isaiah 43:3, 11, Luke 2:11), the mighty God, the everlasting Father (Isaiah 9:6), the Son of God, “The Christ-Messiah,” the Lord and God, (Isaiah 40:3, Matthew 3:3, Mark 12:29, John 20:28), The Holy Ghost (John 14:26) our Shepherd, our High Priest, the Lamb of God (John 1:29, Revelation 15:3 – The Lamb is God Almighty), our Rock, (I Corinthians 10:4), the Chief corner stone, a sure foundation, the Holy One of Israel (Isaiah 30:12, 15, 43:3, 14), King of Kings, Lord of Lords, (Revelation 19:16) Prince of Peace, (Isaiah 9:6), the only wise God our Saviour, (Isaiah 43:14, Luke 1:47, 2:11, Romans 16:27, Jude 1:25), the Almighty God (Revelation 1:8,11, 22:13). In conclusion, the apostles doctrine is a sure foundation, which is based on the doctrine of Christ/God is based on one God and one name-Jesus Christ-Jehovah Saviour.

Unbelievers don't understand the apostles doctrine, therefore, Paul says to mark them and stay away because they are unbelievers, they don’t have the revelation nor mystery of Christ, and they don’t follow the doctrine of Christ as taught by the apostles (Acts 2:38, Galatians 1:6-12).

Can the Trinity be explained in the New Testament?

Romans 15:4-6

First let me say that there are some scriptures that seem to contradict the oneness of God. This is one. Some verbiage is used to clarify other parts of God’s Word. For example, the Spirit is the Father of the Son. Once we have a thorough knowledge of who God is, then we can better understand the New Testament as it relates to one God.

Let me give you another example of the dual nature of God. This scripture tells us that we should have the same mind and glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. The explanation of this scripture is that we should glorify the Spirit which begot the Son. The Spirit is the Father of the Son, the manifested flesh of God. Once we understand the relationship of the Spirit of God and his nature as a man, we will get a different understanding of the operations of God.

Now let’s look at it again. “We should glorify God, even the Father (Spirit) of our Lord Jesus Christ (flesh).” This is a short scripture with a powerful message. It shows the relationship between the dual nature of a Holy God. God is fully God and fully man, at the same time, in one Person (John 1:1,3, 10,14, John 10:30-33, Colossians 1:19, 2:9, II Corinthians 5:19, I Timothy 3:16, Hebrews 1:3,8).

I’m always concerned when someone doesn’t believe the Word of God because God tells us through his Word that we should mark them because they don't understand the mystery and oneness of the one Lord God Almighty - Jesus Christ (Revelation 1:8).

Romans 16:17-27

Mark them which cause divisions and offenses. This is another powerful scripture by Paul in the congregation of many of his brethren in Christ. Paul had a serious concern that the gospel would be perverted by unbelievers who would try to change the doctrine of Christ. Paul was so concerned about this perversion that he told his brethren to avoid them. Again Paul admonishes us to speak the same thing (I Corinthians 1:9-16). What does that have to do with the gospel today?

The gospel of Jesus Christ as taught by Paul and the apostles has been perverted by a doctrine called, “The doctrine of the Trinity.” This doctrine preaches that there are three persons or three personalities in One God (Galatians 1:8-9).

The Trinitarian doctrine teaches that you should confess with your mouth and believe in your heart and you will be saved, and that you should be baptized in the titles of God the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost and not in the name of Jesus Christ. This is a perversion of the gospel of Christ (Matthew 15:7-9).

The Trinitarian doctrine can’t be explained nor understood because it is based on the philosophy of men and not on the doctrine of Christ (Mark 7:6-9, Galatians 1:6-12, Colossians 2:8-10). How could educated men try to teach a doctrine that is not in the Bible and doesn't have a solid foundation?

The Trinitarian doctrine is a doctrine that is not based on the doctrine of Christ, rather, it is a doctrine based on a three person God. That type doctrine, which Paul didn't preach, is "paganism" which has nothing to do with the oneness of God (Galatians 1:8-9).

I have never seen nor heard of a preacher, teacher, scholar, prophet, evangelist, theologian, etc., who could fully explain “The Trinity” using the scriptures. The true doctrine of Jesus Christ is mentioned in the scriptures and they are used interchangeably. They are the apostles doctrine, (Acts 2:42) doctrine of baptisms, (Hebrews 6:2) the doctrine of Christ (Hebrews 6:1) and the doctrine of God (Titus 2:10).

Look all through the Bible from Genesis to Revelation and you will find that the Trinitarian doctrine is a doctrine and philosophy of men put together at the Nicean Council of Catholic Bishops 325AD, long after Paul and the apostles preached the true gospel of Jesus Christ (Mark 7:6-13, Colossians 2:8-10)Reference: Church history at the Public Library.

Paul never heard of a Trinitarian doctrine and it’s not in the Bible. The Trinitarian doctrine is not a sound doctrine. It can’t be understood, it’s unexplainable, and it is unscriptural (Galatians 1:8-12). Those preachers, teachers, and theologians aren't rightly dividing the Word of God in the New Testament.

All of the scriptures that are used to try to explain the Trinity are "assumptions" that God is three persons. In addition, their understandings are "a figment of man's imagination". God never said he is three persons. God is God alone. He is and always has been one God and one Person (Isaiah 43:10-12, Luke 2:11, Hebrews 1:3,8, Titus 2:13, Jude 1:25, Revelation 1:8).

Understanding the Trinity vs Three Manifestations: if I confess with my mouth the Lord Jesus am I sav...: "Romans 10:9-10 Confess with thy mouth and be saved. This is a scripture that is true to those that believe but it is used out of context..."

if I confess with my mouth the Lord Jesus am I saved? (Romans 10:9-10)

Romans 10:9-10

Confess with thy mouth and be saved. This is a scripture that is true to those that believe but it is used out of context by many of the general Christian population of today.

In this scripute, Paul is talking to the brethren who had already been saved according to Acts 2:38. The only thing Paul is saying to the brethren is that all they had to do was to confess with their mouth, their faith in the death, burial and resurrection Of Jesus Christ and their salvation is assured.

This is not the salvation scripture for sinners. The salvation scripute is Acts 2:38. Acts 2:38 carries out the great commission (Matthew 28:19), the rock upon which salvation is built (baptism in Jesus name) (Matthew 16:18), the keys of the kingdom (Matthew 16:19), and being born again by water and Spirit (John 3:5).

This scripture, Romans 10:9, will make new converts think that they are saved when they are not. This is a stumblingstone for those who don’t understand that the mystery of God centers on Christ. If we as believers - believe in Jesus Christ, we won’t be ashamed when we tell you that you must believe, repent, and be baptized in Jesus name for remission of sins (Romans 9:33, Acts 2:38, 9:1-5, Mark 16:16).

Many preachers and teachers are misguided because they don’t believe that Jesus is the only God, the promised Messiah, God in the flesh (Isaiah 9:6, John 1:14, I Timothy 3:16, Revelation 1:8). Therefore, because of their unbelief and disobedience, they will never suggest that you, a follower, repent, and get baptized in Jesus name for remission of your sins, and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost because they don’t understand the revelation of Jesus Christ (Romans 10:16, Acts 2:38).

Only believers who are converted sinners can call on the name of the Lord and be saved. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved (Mark 16:16).

If one truly believes in Jesus Christ, his death, burial and resurrection, that person would not have a problem getting baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for remission of sins (Acts 2:37-38). Jesus name baptism is a sure foundation and the rock upon which the church is built and the gates of hell shall not prevail against the baptism in Jesus name (Matthew 16:18-19). If you don’t believe that Jesus name will save, then you won’t get baptized in his name.

Some preachers and teachers have a zeal for God but they don’t have the knowledge and mystery of Jesus Christ (Romans 10:2-4). They want to set up their own righteousness by using this scripture (Romans 10:9) and saying that’s all you have to do to be saved (born again) is to “confess with your mouth and believe in your heart” without taking in consideration Peter’s first sermon. We must be born of water and Spirit.

Look at Peter’s first sermon, Acts 2:14-41. Peter made known that Jesus Christ is the end of the law for righteousness and he explained what we must do to be saved, if we believe in the name of Jesus Christ. There is no other name whereby we must be saved. For every one who believes; Jesus Christ is a sure foundation, whether it be in baptism, works, deeds, activities, etc. Whatever we do in word or deed, we should do it all in Jesus name (Colossians 3:17). Thus, the Jesus name baptism establishes a sure foundation (John 8:12).

Peter told us what we must do to be saved. Why would we establish our own righteousness by repeating this “statement of salvation” and telling new converts they are O.K? (Romans 10:3). These same preachers/teachers don’t know God, neither do they know that Jesus Christ, God’s highest name, is the end of the law of righteousness (Romans 10:4). If they would only believe God’s Word and search the scriptures for themselves, God will reveal these things to them (Matthew 28:18,19, John 3:5, Acts 2:37, 38). We must not be ignorant of this mystery.

Roman 11:20-25

Let’s explore how important it is for you to know the mystery of Christ. Paul explains to the Gentiles that they are grafted into the faith by their belief in Jesus Christ. Paul goes on to say that God will cut off unbelievers just like he cut off the natural branches (the Jews) because of their unbelief.

God is good and because of his goodness, he will allow you to express your belief in him by your actions as instructed by Peter. Once you have followed God’s direction through Peter, God will restore you back into the faith (Acts 2:38).

You must believe that Jesus Christ is the Messiah, the Saviour, the oneness of God, the revelation that Jesus is God, and you must believe in the “keys” that were given to Peter and how they were used in Acts 2:37-38 to open the door to the church. If you don’t understand the mystery of who Jesus is, you will find other ways to try to be saved rather than follow the instructions given by Peter. If you don’t understand the mystery, you won’t believe that Jesus is the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost (Colossians 1:19, 2:8-10).

Therefore, you will try to come up another way to be saved (John 10:1). Thus you will never get baptized in Jesus name for remission of sins because of unbelief. For example, “Confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, believe in your heart, and you will be saved.” This statement doesn’t have any indication of baptism in the name of Jesus, repentance, remission of sins, nor receiving the Holy Spirit. It doesn’t speak of the water nor the Spirit (St. John 3:5).

Water and Spirit are the main tenets of salvation and the born again experience. No one can have the complete born again experience unless they repent, be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for remissions of sins (water) and receive the gift of the Holy Ghost/Spirit (Spirit) (Acts 2:28). If you take this scripture, Romans 10:9, out of context, then you don’t know nor understand the mystery of Christ nor how to be born again.

Thus, you will get lost in your own philosophy, deceit, and tradition of men, after the rudiments of this world and not after Christ. (Colossians 2:8-10). Romans 10:9 is true for believers who are going on to perfection and continuing in the faith. This is not a born again scripture for sinners. There are some scriptures that seem to contradict each other but we must understand the context and the oneness of God not to be saved but to understand the method of salvation.

If you confess with your mouth are you saved?

Romans 10:9-13

Confess with thy mouth and be saved. This is another scripture that is true to those that believe but it is used out of context by many of the general Christian population. In this scripture Paul is not speaking to sinners nor is he explaining how to be born again.  Paul is telling the brethren who were already saved that they must confess with their mouth and believe the gospel message and their salvation is assured.

Only believers, converted sinners, in the name of Jesus Christ can call on the name of the Lord and be saved. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved (Mark 16:16). If one truly believes in Jesus Christ, his death, burial and resurrection, that person would not have a problem getting baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ for remission of sins (Acts 2:37-38).

Is the Spirit of Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, and the Spirit of God the same Spirit?

Romans 8:9-11

Spirit of Christ/Spirit of God. This scripture is important. This scripture will show you that the name of the Holy Ghost is Jesus Christ (Matthew 28:19). It tells us that the Spirit of God dwells in us. And then it says that if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. The Spirit of God and the Spirit of Christ are written in the same verse because they are the same Spirit. Therefore;

1. The Spirit of God is - Jesus Christ

2. The Spirit of Christ is – Jesus Christ

3. The Holy Spirit is – Jesus Christ (Spirit of God/Christ which dwells in us)(One Spirit, same God - Jesus Christ).

Jesus Christ, God’s highest name, is a sure foundation (Corinthians 10:4, Acts 9:12, 4:12). The Spirit of God, the Spirit of Christ and the Holy Spirit are used interchangeable throughout the scriptures. The Spirit of Christ is God, therefore, Jesus Christ is God and the one Lord (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11).

Verse 11. But if the Spirit of him (Spirit of God) that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, that same Spirit that raised up Christ (Spirit of God) from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit (Spirit of Christ) that dwell in you.

I’m sure you have heard of a tongue twister, well, this seems like a “reading twister.” However, if you can see that Jesus is the Holy Spirit and the Spirit of God, then you can begin to see the revelation that Jesus is that one Spirit (Spirit of Christ/God) and that Jesus is the one Lord who is God. (Deuteronomy 6:4, Luke 2:11, John 1:10, Revelation 1:8, 22:13).

The Holy Spirit of God, who is Jesus Christ, will raise up his own fleshly body and that same Spirit of God/Christ/Holy Ghost which dwells in our body will also quicken our bodies at the resurrection. This is the Holy Spirit of God also called the Holy Ghost or the Spirit of Christ.

How do we get the Spirit of Jesus Christ in our bodies?  We must follow the actions of the apostles in Acts 2:38, 10:48, etc., We must use the keys of the kingdom of heaven to be born again.  Key #1 Repent, Key#2 be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ and Key #3, be filled with the Holy Ghost.  Acts 2:38 is the answer to the great commission (Matthew 28:19), the born again instructions, (John 3:5) and the keys of the kingdom (Matthew 16:18-19).
