This week, at the Tute, Dr. Kreider spoke about the Trinity - as a whole, and as specific parts. He spoke about how there is only one God as referenced in Mark 12:29, 1 Corinthians 8:4-6, Ephesians 4:4-6, 1 Timothy 1:17, and 1 Timothy 2:5. He spoke of the Son individually, as referenced in John 10:16-23, John 17:1, and Matthew 17:5. In John 1:32, Luke 4:18, John 15:26, and Acts 5:3-4, the Spirit is referenced as an individual part of the Trinity. To wrap all of these parts together: reference Mark 1:9-11 and Luke 2:25-32. Here, the Bible includes all three parts of the Trinity being in one place at the same time.
Needless to say, this week was intense. A good intense. My thoughts were continually challenged, and I was caused to grow. The Trinity is such a tricky thing, right when you think you are getting a slight grasp on it… you realize you are more confused than when you started the process.
