The Meaning of the Holy Trinity
The Trinity means the concept of three in one, where God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit are considered the same Almighty God. To illustrate, think of Bob playing different roles as someone’s cousin, brother, and uncle—he remains Bob despite fulfilling various roles. Similarly, God takes on several roles while being the same God, our Savior.
The idea of God coming as a man is fundamental to Christian doctrine and integral to the Trinity. Prophet Isaiah’s testimony in Isaiah 9:6 describes God being born as a child and called Mighty God and Everlasting Father.
“For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.”
“Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready.”
Revelation 19:7
Looking at Revelation 19:7, the “Lamb” who appears in the last days indicates Jesus at his second coming. Referencing Revelation 22:17 we can clearly understand that the Second Coming Christ who is the Lamb appears as the Holy Spirit and calls all people to receive the water of life.
“The Spirit and the bride say, ‘Come!’ And let the one who hears say, ‘Come!’ Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life.”
After reviewing just handful of verses, it is evident that God the Father came as the Son and fulfilled the role of the Holy Spirit in the last days. Moreover, the Bible in its entirety testifies that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are one and the same.
