There are a lot of illustrations to try to explain the Trinity. Many are helpful in some way, but they all break down somewhere along the line. Can a created thing really illustrate the uncreated, or the finite the infinite? He revealed HImself as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit for a purpose, not because He is limited to being three persons. He can be one or as many as He wants to be, yet one.
My question in Genesis which am trying to understand is the gap between Genesis 1:26 and the actual creation of man (Adam). After Genesis 1:26, the physical creation man doesn’t take place till Genesis 2:7. Would be nice to hear your response. Again, from my understanding we are first spirit beings, we have a soul & we live in a body. From the Scriptures it’s very evident that spirit and soul are separate from each other.

God says He is not a man, in that He is so much more than a flesh being. He is masculine. He never calls Himself the Mother, or the Daughter, and never refers to the Holy Spirit as she. Man was made in God's image, the Scriptures came through men, and women are therefore subject to the teaching and the authority of men. This is explained much better in one of the Epistles, but that's the concept.
It doesn't, but the Word follows a patriarchal view. Made man first, the relationship expressed in bridegroom and bride. God is spirit ,not of a sexual nature.
Can you explain what this means? Revelation 11:18 The nations were angry, and your wrath has come. The time has come for judging the dead, and for rewarding your servants the prophets and your people who revere your name, both great and small- and for destroying those who destroy the earth. It pretty much sounds like God is saying protect the earth, his beautiful Garden of Eden. Hence... Genesis 2:15 says “The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.” I believe this is GOD, telling us to take care of his Garden of Eden... Protect his Earth he gave us. Thoughts? TY

Is it possible that when god created this world it was to be populated by mankind in gods image as to bring his son to this earth as the savior of the universe, so that begs the question, did god make other worlds not in the image of mankind? Lizard people, tall grays...etc...So why was it so important to emphasize the phrase, "in his own image" as if there were many that he could have made?

Some theologians say God was speaking to the Angels. It does not fall apart because He says let us make man in OUR image. That doesn’t mean that Angels were made in Gods image, but that that man was a combo of God and the physical image of Angels. The reason being that 1. Angels were created before man 2. Men resemble angels to the point that the Bible says that humanity has unknowingly entertained angels and 3. Angels have biblically helped God with His projects
If you read the next verse, it is clear that mankind wasn't made in the image of God and angels, but only in God's image. 'So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. ' - Genesis 1:27 This verse makes it abundantly clear that mankind was made in the image of God alone. If it were true that mankind was made in the image of God and angels, then it would be highly unlikely for the Bible to specify that mankind was made in God's image and not specify that mankind was also made in angels' image.

Good day have question not about this video but in general. Have given my life to God and stopped drinking and basically live my life accordingly to God. My question or if you can make a video if not made already that I want to know is.. Know it's a sin with flesh and sleeping around and all of that and that sex is only allowed in marriage. So the question is if you meet someone and it is serious and my intensions is to marry the person one day will it be a sin to have sex then or is it a must to be married first in order not to commit sin. Have walked the right path now and found God and really trying my best to do anything according to God's will but if I meet someone now obviously get to know that person and if feelings mutual and intensions is to marry that woman one day can we have sex or not and if we go to church and live a healthy life and live to God's wil, will it be sin then?
Hi Attie. Awesome to hear your testimony! My understanding is that sex is reserved for a married couple, thus pre-marital sex is not the will of God. Even if you are committed to each other and planning to marry, things can change and then you’ve shared the intimacy with someone other than your wife. Hang in there for a little longer and may God give you the strength needed to persevere.
From which writing did Moses quote, 'Let us create man in our own image'????I, for one, can't hardly accept this phrase. Who told Moses that God said,'Let us create man in our own image.' God never said that. This is a false doctrine.
The Trinity doesn't have to talk to itself. He's talking to the divine council, his sons in heaven, reference Psalm 82. Dr. Michael S. Heiser explains this well. Everything else is good, but this Trinity talking to itself view is very common, but obviously incorrect once the rest of the old testament is studied.
You’re correct that Trinity does not HAVE TO talk to itself, but it is three persons and one being so the question becomes why would one of those persons, namely the word of God speak to the other two persons of the trinity, even though they are one being? The answer is simple. To reveal the Trinity extremely early in Genesis. The key issue with saying that he is talking to the divine council is revealed not in the “our” but in the “us” preceding it. “Let *us* create man in our image”. There is no evidence that the divine council took part in creation, therefore it is more likely that the “us” and the “our” was meant for us to read it as intra-trinitarian. Especially because this verse is proceeded immediately by verse 27 in Genesis 1 which is, “So God (plural Elohim) created man in his (singular possessive pronoun) image.” This is the dead giveaway. No one but mankind was created in the image of God. This is one specific thing that I think Heiser got wrong. Everything else about his work on the divine council though, is very compelling. This is so far the only thing I think he had wrong.
@@BozzleyOfficial Did you not read Psalm 82? Do you have a Doctorate. Dr. Heiser got it ALL right. The Divine Council was made up of the "sons of GOD" whom he was talking to. The trinity was not talking to them self. Only GOD did the creation. He said, let us create man in our image and then said then GOD performed the creation. Also read Deuteronomy where he addresses the divine council again and assigns them to rule the nations (I don't remember the chapter and verse, but I'm sure you can find it). In the beginning GOD had but one and only true son who always was, but he also had a divine council of son's of GOD (not son's of Israel like some versions read. Get an ESV) that he created. You seriously need to closely read the unseen realm and then you will truly SEE the truth. That is unless your own desires blind you to it.
@@michaelgentry402I would be on Heiser’s side, if it weren’t for the “our image” part, so there’s more in God’s image? I thought God was unique and only one like Him.
It's backwards man made god in his image. We all know polytheists made gods of brass gold and copper which are usually ground into dust before smelting
Ah, no. "Genesis" was written at a time before Israelites adopted monotheism, so the "Let US" is obviously a reference to the king of the Gods El speaking to the other gods of the Israelite pantheon (one of them having been Yahweh, before they were fused into one Creator deity due imposition of Persian rule, whose religion was monotheistic). We have papyri evidence from Egypt that shows there were was a Jewish community in the 5th century BC Egypt worshipping not just Yahweh, but other gods (including a consort of Yahweh).
God is spirit, made man body, soul, spirit, spirit is image of God Jesus Christ the perfect man ,had spirit in him, God was in Christ ,,,, trinity Not in Bible

The explanation that God was including the heavenly host in the use of Us and Our is just foolishness, as God doesn't need angels to create anything.. God is all powerful, and the angels have no power to create life or anything else. The Truth is, God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit have always existed as one.

God created Adam in His own likeness and image (sinless), then when Adam fell he created his posterity in his likeness and image, Genesis 5:3-“And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:” This is a sinful image and that’s why there has to be a new birth to be recreated in God’s own likeness and image and we see this in 2nd Corinthians 3:18-"But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord." This is what the vast majority of Christians fail to understand. Without the new birth a person dies in his sins because he is not created into the image and likeness of God.

@@qwerty-so6ml There’s a lot of fallacy to your post, but this should suffice:Only when the Holy Spirit circumcises our heart in regeneration by taking the stony one out and replacing it with a tender heart of flesh (Ezekiel 11:19-20,36:26-27), and God writing His spiritual laws on our heart and in our mind (Jeremiah 31:33-34;Hebrews 8:10-11) can we be convicted of our sins. Only when we are convicted of our sins do we have godly sorrow and only after we have godly sorrow can we repent. So acceptance and repentance are not the vehicles to eternal life but are evidences that we already have it. Furthermore, ‘accepting Christ’ obviously shows that somebody has repented. So accepting Christ not only happens well after the new birth but also after repentance. I suspect this would blow the minds of the vast majority of Christians today. The Christian world has been upside down for many centuries.
@@Patriot218S Isaiah 29:16 Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay: In Genesis 3:5, the serpent said Ye shall be AS gods. In John 10:34, Jesus said Ye ARE gods. Stop believing your father, the devil.
@@qwerty-so6ml You are misinterpreting the texts. Satan meant that once sinned entered into the world, and man knew good and evil, he would think of himself as a god as he would be prideful which obviously goes against God. As far as John 10:34- The Lord knew that those who were not of his sheep would never believe under any circumstance. The Lord, no doubt, said the above for the benefit of those among them that had believed that he had done the mighty works by the power of God, who, of course are of his sheep.

"Marriage" is what the "Image of God" is. While there is only one God, God is not one person. Instead, he is three, the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit. When God created man he didn't create one person, but two, Male and Female. When a man and woman marry they are no longer two separate persons, but one Flesh (Gen. 2:24). This only happens when the Husband and Wife allow God to be the third person in their life and Flesh. Satan has been on the constant attack of Marriage since Sin entered this world and has introduced thing like Polygamy, Divorce, Homosexuality, and Sex outside of Marriage. He has also attack Marriage by having many Christians to believe there will be no marriage in Heaven by having us misunderstand what Jesus meant when he said "They neither marry nor are given in marriage at Resurrection" (Matt. 22:30) Jesus only said they won't marry "At Resurrection" because the Sadducees, who didn't believe in Resurrection, only asked whose wife the woman would be "At Resurrection." Plus, Jesus earlier told the Pharisees it was wrong to end marriage in divorce because God brought the husband and wife together (Matt. 19:3-6). So if Jesus was really saying God is going to annul all Marriages at Resurrection just because some people married more than once, he would be contradicting himself from having earlier said that God created Marriage.
Didn't the Word say let us make mankind in our likeness and our image?? Not just man. And "then" God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed the breath of life in him and set him in a garden in the east???... then God pulled a rib from that man and formed a women as a helper cause he Sean that that man was lonely??? And when Cain got banished essentially he was like but whoever will see me will kill me?? So God put a mark on his forehead so that whoever sees him won't kill him etc??? I think a lot of you need to really study the bible and not abbreviate and assume in your teachings..
Image and likeness is not literally resembles and look like God but to have reasoning powers and creative like powers of which is called innovation or invention as we invent with what was created as we cannot create for only God can create reasoning powers means solving complex problems as for instance Mathematics as no other living animal bird insect etc..are unable to comprehend which plainly states the other living entities are unable to reach the Moon or Mars etc.. but mankind who is in the image and likeness of God so put looks and features aside end of story
Do you believe God looks like "mankind"? I question God has our meat suit, but maybe God is describing the conscious energy that runs this meat suit we live in? The difference is Jesus is God's energy and we are just an image with free will, although the one problem with the Trinity is when God sacrifices his "first born" in Jesus, he is in essence committing suicide. But, Quantum Mechanics actually explains how the Trinity could be quite simply:-)

The God of the Bible is one person/being so the Triune God is a biblical impossibility as three separate God persons can't be one person/being called God. The New Testament makes it clear that God is the Father, the New Testament says nothing about there being a God the Son or God the Holy Ghost/Spirit so biblically speaking these two characters are man made.
Please look up the Trinity from Got Questions. Jesus Christ describes the Trinity repeatedly… He tells Philip in John… if you have seen Me than you have seen the Father. He also says that He must go so that they can receive The Holy Spirit…. He also says that they should receive The Holy Spirit after He breathes on them…. Countless examples… but this pastor gives an excellent explanation with plenty of references!!!
@@elizabethnovotny109 the Apostles didn't believe in the Trinity so Jesus Christ never taught the Trinity. Got Questions is a ministry that believes that God is a Trinity so their interpretation of the Bible is based on the Trinity doctrine being true.
@@elizabethnovotny109 The problem I see in Trinity explanation by many is when you say; 1. The Father is not the Holy Spirit & Vice versa 2. The Divine nature of Jesus is not the Father & vice-versa (completely against scripture Isaiah9:6) 3. The Divine nature of Jesus is not the Holy Spirit Then it's biblically and logically wrong Because it's the Essence of the Father that makes him the true God, so the son with the same Essence is equally the Father and God. If the Son is not the Father, then you're talking about 3 or different gods. If you're confused because of the word SON OF GOD, don't be, because it only means God expressed/revealed bodily/physically.

Great teaching! But where does GOD SAY HE IS A MAN OR A MALE SPIRIT?
God the father God the son?
God says He is not a man, in that He is so much more than a flesh being.
He is masculine.
He never calls Himself the Mother, or the Daughter, and never refers to the Holy Spirit as she.
Man was made in God's image, the Scriptures came through men, and women are therefore subject to the teaching and the authority of men.
This is explained much better in one of the Epistles, but that's the concept.
It doesn't, but the Word follows a patriarchal view. Made man first, the relationship expressed in bridegroom and bride. God is spirit ,not of a sexual nature.
Well, Father and Son are ironically male lol and woman was made from man who was made in God's image
@@ericworiax1277 He IS the "Father."
Can you explain what this means?
Revelation 11:18
The nations were angry,
and your wrath has come.
The time has come for judging the dead,
and for rewarding your servants the prophets
and your people who revere your name,
both great and small-
and for destroying those who destroy the earth.
It pretty much sounds like God is saying protect the earth, his beautiful Garden of Eden.
Hence... Genesis 2:15 says “The Lord God took the man and put him in the Garden of Eden to work it and take care of it.”
I believe this is GOD, telling us to take care of his Garden of Eden...
Protect his Earth he gave us.
Thoughts? TY
2 Peter 3:7 But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
What wrath has come ?

The only true living God Almighty Jehovah was talking to his only begotten son first born of all creation our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. And when he ( Yahweh/Jehovah) spoke, he was speaking to his son.
Make a man our image, God was making reference to character. Godly qualities, mainly Love. Peace 🕊️
God had no son or Daughter, Brother or Sister in the Beginning,
Read Isaiah 43:10-12 “You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord,
“and my servant whom I have chosen,
so that you may know and believe me
and understand that I am he.
Before me no God was formed,
nor will there be one after me.
11 I, even I, am the Lord,
and apart from me there is no savior.
12 I have revealed and saved and proclaimed-
I, and not some foreign God among you.
You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord, “that I am God.
@@roscoes9933 Not God's creation. The only true living God Jehovah had no beginning and has no end. In the beginning of Creation, the first move of creation was Jehovah creating a son. Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Our Redeemer and King is almighty God Jehovah's only begotten son.
Is it possible that when god created this world it was to be populated by mankind in gods image as to bring his son to this earth as the savior of the universe, so that begs the question, did god make other worlds not in the image of mankind? Lizard people, tall grays...etc...So why was it so important to emphasize the phrase, "in his own image" as if there were many that he could have made?
I personally don't accept the Trinity after reading John 17 and 1 Corinthians 12, but other than that it was a nice video.
Talking about the thee parts of himself in totality then why would he say “like one of us?” This didn’t help clarify for me at all if anything I’m more confused

Some theologians say God was speaking to the Angels. It does not fall apart because He says let us make man in OUR image. That doesn’t mean that Angels were made in Gods image, but that that man was a combo of God and the physical image of Angels.
The reason being that 1. Angels were created before man 2. Men resemble angels to the point that the Bible says that humanity has unknowingly entertained angels and 3. Angels have biblically helped God with His projects
If you read the next verse, it is clear that mankind wasn't made in the image of God and angels, but only in God's image.
'So God created human beings in his own image. In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them. ' - Genesis 1:27
This verse makes it abundantly clear that mankind was made in the image of God alone. If it were true that mankind was made in the image of God and angels, then it would be highly unlikely for the Bible to specify that mankind was made in God's image and not specify that mankind was also made in angels' image.

Good day have question not about this video but in general. Have given my life to God and stopped drinking and basically live my life accordingly to God. My question or if you can make a video if not made already that I want to know is.. Know it's a sin with flesh and sleeping around and all of that and that sex is only allowed in marriage. So the question is if you meet someone and it is serious and my intensions is to marry the person one day will it be a sin to have sex then or is it a must to be married first in order not to commit sin. Have walked the right path now and found God and really trying my best to do anything according to God's will but if I meet someone now obviously get to know that person and if feelings mutual and intensions is to marry that woman one day can we have sex or not and if we go to church and live a healthy life and live to God's wil, will it be sin then?
Hi Attie. Awesome to hear your testimony! My understanding is that sex is reserved for a married couple, thus pre-marital sex is not the will of God. Even if you are committed to each other and planning to marry, things can change and then you’ve shared the intimacy with someone other than your wife. Hang in there for a little longer and may God give you the strength needed to persevere.
what dialect of sign language is that?
From which writing did Moses quote, 'Let us create man in our own image'????I, for one, can't hardly accept this phrase. Who told Moses that God said,'Let us create man in our own image.' God never said that. This is a false doctrine.
The Trinity doesn't have to talk to itself. He's talking to the divine council, his sons in heaven, reference Psalm 82. Dr. Michael S. Heiser explains this well. Everything else is good, but this Trinity talking to itself view is very common, but obviously incorrect once the rest of the old testament is studied.
I found this out by watching the documentary “the Unseen realm”.
You’re correct that Trinity does not HAVE TO talk to itself, but it is three persons and one being so the question becomes why would one of those persons, namely the word of God speak to the other two persons of the trinity, even though they are one being?
The answer is simple. To reveal the Trinity extremely early in Genesis. The key issue with saying that he is talking to the divine council is revealed not in the “our” but in the “us” preceding it.
“Let *us* create man in our image”. There is no evidence that the divine council took part in creation, therefore it is more likely that the “us” and the “our” was meant for us to read it as intra-trinitarian. Especially because this verse is proceeded immediately by verse 27 in Genesis 1 which is,
“So God (plural Elohim) created man in his (singular possessive pronoun) image.”
This is the dead giveaway. No one but mankind was created in the image of God. This is one specific thing that I think Heiser got wrong. Everything else about his work on the divine council though, is very compelling. This is so far the only thing I think he had wrong.
@@BozzleyOfficial Did you not read Psalm 82? Do you have a Doctorate. Dr. Heiser got it ALL right. The Divine Council was made up of the "sons of GOD" whom he was talking to. The trinity was not talking to them self. Only GOD did the creation. He said, let us create man in our image and then said then GOD performed the creation. Also read Deuteronomy
where he addresses the divine council again and assigns them to rule the nations (I don't remember the chapter and verse, but I'm sure you can find it). In the beginning GOD had but one and only true son who always was, but he also had a divine council of son's of GOD (not son's of Israel like some versions read. Get an ESV) that he created. You seriously need to closely read the unseen realm and then you will truly SEE the truth. That is unless your own desires blind you to it.
@@BozzleyOfficial For more on the Sons of GOD read Deuteronomy 32:8, but you'd know this IF you read the unseen realm.
@@michaelgentry402I would be on Heiser’s side, if it weren’t for the “our image” part, so there’s more in God’s image? I thought God was unique and only one like Him.
It's backwards man made god in his image. We all know polytheists made gods of brass gold and copper which are usually ground into dust before smelting
Ah, no. "Genesis" was written at a time before Israelites adopted monotheism, so the "Let US" is obviously a reference to the king of the Gods El speaking to the other gods of the Israelite pantheon (one of them having been Yahweh, before they were fused into one Creator deity due imposition of Persian rule, whose religion was monotheistic). We have papyri evidence from Egypt that shows there were was a Jewish community in the 5th century BC Egypt worshipping not just Yahweh, but other gods (including a consort of Yahweh).
God is spirit, made man body, soul, spirit, spirit is image of God
Jesus Christ the perfect man ,had spirit in him, God was in Christ ,,,, trinity Not in Bible

The explanation that God was including the heavenly host in the use of Us and Our is just foolishness, as God doesn't need angels to create anything.. God is all powerful, and the angels have no power to create life or anything else. The Truth is, God the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit have always existed as one.
GOD said let us (heavenly host) make man in our image and THEN GOD made man. GOD doesn't have to talk to himself. GOD was the only one doing the making. Please reread the scripture.
@@michaelgentry402.. Your insertion of (heavenly host) is simply not found in the word. Again, God is the only one that can create life, and the angels were a creation of God and have no ability to create anything.
@@damoncrowfeather4655 "Nehemiah 9:6 King James Version (KJV)." No one ever said Angels created anything, and neither does the Bible. You need to read the scripture more.
@@michaelgentry402 Why would God speak about himself in the third person? God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit have always existed. To believe anything else is a teaching from Satan.
@@damoncrowfeather4655 Third person? When he said let "us" make man in our image...He was addressing the divine council - the "sons of GOD" the ones addressed in Psalm 82. He wasn't talking to himself. Do you not believe the word of GOD? - "Nehemiah 9:6 King James Version (KJV)."
YAHWEH GOD WAS TALKING TO TH EIN SOF HE WAS SIMPLY REFRENCING HIS INFINTE ABILITIES TO CREATE NEW BEINFGS JUST LIKE OTHER CREATED BEINGS GOD WAS BOTH TALKING TO HIMSELF , HIS PRESENT CREATIONS , AND HIS FUTURE CREATIONS AS EIN SOL OR EIN IN SELF AS A DUALITY TRI-UNITY AND AS A UNITY AS A INFINITE BEING
God created Adam in His own likeness and image (sinless), then when Adam fell he created his posterity in his likeness and image, Genesis 5:3-“And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:” This is a sinful image and that’s why there has to be a new birth to be recreated in God’s own likeness and image and we see this in 2nd Corinthians 3:18-"But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord."
This is what the vast majority of Christians fail to understand. Without the new birth a person dies in his sins because he is not created into the image and likeness of God.

@@qwerty-so6ml There’s a lot of fallacy to your post, but this should suffice:Only when the Holy Spirit circumcises our heart in regeneration by taking the stony one out and replacing it with a tender heart of flesh (Ezekiel 11:19-20,36:26-27), and God writing His spiritual laws on our heart and in our mind (Jeremiah 31:33-34;Hebrews 8:10-11) can we be convicted of our sins. Only when we are convicted of our sins do we have godly sorrow and only after we have godly sorrow can we repent. So acceptance and repentance are not the vehicles to eternal life but are evidences that we already have it. Furthermore, ‘accepting Christ’ obviously shows that somebody has repented. So accepting Christ not only happens well after the new birth but also after repentance. I suspect this would blow the minds of the vast majority of Christians today. The Christian world has been upside down for many centuries.
@@Patriot218S
Isaiah 29:16 Surely your turning of things upside down shall be esteemed as the potter's clay:
In Genesis 3:5, the serpent said Ye shall be AS gods.
In John 10:34, Jesus said Ye ARE gods.
Stop believing your father, the devil.
@@qwerty-so6ml You are misinterpreting the texts. Satan meant that once sinned entered into the world, and man knew good and evil, he would think of himself as a god as he would be prideful which obviously goes against God. As far as John 10:34- The Lord knew that those who were not of his sheep would never believe under any circumstance. The Lord, no doubt, said the above for the benefit of those among them that had believed that he had done the mighty works by the power of God, who, of course are of his sheep.

Matthew 12:36 But I say unto you, That every idle word that men shall speak, they shall give account thereof in the day of judgment.

Shalom.
"Marriage" is what the "Image of God" is. While there is only one God, God is not one person. Instead, he is three, the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit. When God created man he didn't create one person, but two, Male and Female. When a man and woman marry they are no longer two separate persons, but one Flesh (Gen. 2:24). This only happens when the Husband and Wife allow God to be the third person in their life and Flesh. Satan has been on the constant attack of Marriage since Sin entered this world and has introduced thing like Polygamy, Divorce, Homosexuality, and Sex outside of Marriage.
He has also attack Marriage by having many Christians to believe there will be no marriage in Heaven by having us misunderstand what Jesus meant when he said "They neither marry nor are given in marriage at Resurrection" (Matt. 22:30) Jesus only said they won't marry "At Resurrection" because the Sadducees, who didn't believe in Resurrection, only asked whose wife the woman would be "At Resurrection." Plus, Jesus earlier told the Pharisees it was wrong to end marriage in divorce because God brought the husband and wife together (Matt. 19:3-6). So if Jesus was really saying God is going to annul all Marriages at Resurrection just because some people married more than once, he would be contradicting himself from having earlier said that God created Marriage.
Didn't the Word say let us make mankind in our likeness and our image?? Not just man. And "then" God formed a man from the dust of the ground and breathed the breath of life in him and set him in a garden in the east???... then God pulled a rib from that man and formed a women as a helper cause he Sean that that man was lonely??? And when Cain got banished essentially he was like but whoever will see me will kill me?? So God put a mark on his forehead so that whoever sees him won't kill him etc??? I think a lot of you need to really study the bible and not abbreviate and assume in your teachings..
No, no , no,. The Bible saying "Let 'us' that implies multiple entities or an obvious plural so what are you talking about? Smh
God didn't you n his image he said our image
Image and likeness is not literally resembles and look like God but to have reasoning powers and creative like powers of which is called innovation or invention as we invent with what was created as we cannot create for only God can create reasoning powers means solving complex problems as for instance Mathematics as no other living animal bird insect etc..are unable to comprehend which plainly states the other living entities are unable to reach the Moon or Mars etc.. but mankind who is in the image and likeness of God so put looks and features aside end of story
I was following until you flat out rejected evolution, not even considering it a possibility.
Do you believe God looks like "mankind"? I question God has our meat suit, but maybe God is describing the conscious energy that runs this meat suit we live in? The difference is Jesus is God's energy and we are just an image with free will, although the one problem with the Trinity is when God sacrifices his "first born" in Jesus, he is in essence committing suicide. But, Quantum Mechanics actually explains how the Trinity could be quite simply:-)
the US thing bothers me as well, but you gave a bunch of logical options, but nothing definitive:-)

The God of the Bible is one person/being so the Triune God is a biblical impossibility as three separate God persons can't be one person/being called God.
The New Testament makes it clear that God is the Father, the New Testament says nothing about there being a God the Son or God the Holy Ghost/Spirit so biblically speaking these two characters are man made.
Please look up the Trinity from Got Questions. Jesus Christ describes the Trinity repeatedly… He tells Philip in John… if you have seen Me than you have seen the Father. He also says that He must go so that they can receive The Holy Spirit…. He also says that they should receive The Holy Spirit after He breathes on them…. Countless examples… but this pastor gives an excellent explanation with plenty of references!!!
@@elizabethnovotny109 the Apostles didn't believe in the Trinity so Jesus Christ never taught the Trinity.
Got Questions is a ministry that believes that God is a Trinity so their interpretation of the Bible is based on the Trinity doctrine being true.
@@elizabethnovotny109 The problem I see in Trinity explanation by many is when you say;
1. The Father is not the Holy Spirit & Vice versa
2. The Divine nature of Jesus is not the Father & vice-versa (completely against scripture Isaiah9:6)
3. The Divine nature of Jesus is not the Holy Spirit
Then it's biblically and logically wrong
Because it's the Essence of the Father that makes him the true God, so the son with the same Essence is equally the Father and God.
If the Son is not the Father, then you're talking about 3 or different gods.
If you're confused because of the word SON OF GOD, don't be, because it only means God expressed/revealed bodily/physically.
@@eugeneattaattadjei9403 I stated that watching the Got Questions explanation would help. We are too simple to completely understand.
Yeah, if you think of GOD on your own terms. The trinity is all over the New Testament and oh yeah its in the Old Testament as well. YOU just have to read it before making these false claims.
