Trinity God

It’s summertime and we’ve all sheltered-in-place far too long, so let’s have a little fun for a few weeks with Norton’s Bible Trivia! Here we go!

Question: If the ‘Our Father’ God, His Son Jesus the Christ, and the Holy Spirit were all in the same room, how many people are in that room?  

Answer: One. God can appear to us in three distinct forms, but they are all the one true God. There IS only one God. 

God is omnipresent, meaning he can be everywhere-at-once.  He could be on the throne in heaven (which is a metaphor, by the way…) while Jesus walks with us on the earth at the same time.  The Holy Spirit can be with us now while Father God reigns over the universe from heaven, with Jesus at his right hand. They’re all the same God - One God.

Sometimes when I’m speaking or writing, I might start out talking about ‘Jesus’ and conclude by saying ‘God did this for us.’ No, I’m not confused. It’s just that in my mind, there really is only one God. Jesus said, “I and the Father are one,” are of one mind, share the same goals and values.

We’re supposed to ask the Holy Spirit to help us pray to Our Father in Heaven in Jesus’ name. But if we mix-up the names, God can figure it out. He’s really smart!
