 does
not believe in a trinity doctrine.
Bible describes two personages, not three:
John 1:1-3 "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all
things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made."
"In Scripture there is as yet no single term by which the Three Divine
Persons are denoted together." (The New Catholic Encyclopedia Online.)
Holy Spirit is not a person; the original Greek indicates 'it' not
'he':
John 14:15 "I will request the Father and He will give you another
helper to be with you forever, the spirit of the truth, which the world
cannot receive because it neither beholds it nor knows it.
You know it, because it remains with you and is in you."
When 'he' is used in scripture, it is referring to the Greek word, 'paraclete',
a word which Jesus used to personify the Holy Spirit as: The
Comforter; The Counselor; The Helper.
All of Paul's letters contain this greeting:
"Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ."
Could Paul have neglected to included the Holy Spirit if 'he' was one
of the 'Holy Trinity'?
Holy Spirit is the power that emanates from God:
Romans 15:19 "...by the power of signs and wonders, by the power of
the Holy Spirit..." |
