Is Jesus the Trinity?
1) Direct Answer
No. Jesus is not “the Trinity.” The Bible never teaches three divine persons. Jesus is the one true God manifested in flesh; in Him dwelt all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.
2) Scriptural Explanation
- Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD (Deuteronomy 6:4).
- God was manifest in the flesh (1 Timothy 3:16).
- In Him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily (Colossians 2:9).
- He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father… the Father that dwelleth in Me (John 14:9-10).
- I and My Father are one (John 10:30).
- His name shall be called… The mighty God, The everlasting Father (Isaiah 9:6).
- God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto Himself (2 Corinthians 5:19).
- They shall call His name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us (Matthew 1:23).
- The Comforter… even the Spirit of truth… I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you (John 14:17-18).
3) Simple Clarifying Logic
- It’s not three Gods, and it’s not three persons. One God revealed Himself in different ways: as Father above us, in the Son with us, and as the Holy Spirit in us.
- The “Son” speaks of the body born of a virgin—the beginning of God’s manifestation in flesh. The indwelling in that body was the Father. The Holy Spirit is that same one God coming back to indwell believers.
- So Jesus is not a “Trinity.” He is the full revelation of the one God. All that the Father is, and all that the Holy Spirit is, was in Jesus Christ.
- Notice the Scripture says “the name” (singular) in Matthew 28:19, and the apostles used that Name in baptism (Acts 2:38). The one Name that reveals Father, Son, and Holy Ghost is the Lord Jesus Christ. That shows oneness, not three persons.
4) Reinforcing Statement
Show one verse that says “three persons in the Godhead.” It isn’t there. But the Bible plainly says God was manifested in Christ, and in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. That’s the mystery—one God made known in Jesus Christ.

...to Himself. Do you believe that? One comment on God in his Son (so we can hurry). I was talking to a woman not long ago that belongs to a church that does not believe that Jesus was divine. She believes that He was just an ordinary man---a prophet or something, but wasn't divine. He was either God or the greatest deceiver the world's ever had. He was God. God, manifested in a body called Jesus, his Son. Not just a man, not a teacher, a philosopher, but He was God manifested in the flesh. I Timothy 3:16 says, "With...

...written in the Scriptures, and I pray, Father, that it will sink into their hearts that Paul was the very one that made the people that had not been baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of their sins, he was the one who commissioned to be baptized over again. May it go to the people, Father. May they realize that this baptismal service moving up---may they realize that that's the truth, knowing that they can't produce one word in the Scripture to support their trinitarian three-god idea.

...other one was called Holy Ghost. Now, today, what dispensation is Father working in today? [Congregation says "Holy Ghost."] Holy Ghost. What was He in the days gone by? ["Jesus."] Jesus. What was He in the days before that? ["Father."] But it was just one God. Is that right? He's Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. Those three, those three offices of one God. One God. But now, Father is not a name. Is that right? I want to ask you. Now I want to give you Matthew 28:19, where Jesus said, "Go ye therefore, teach all natio...

The revelation shows that He is not three gods; neither is He chopped up in three pieces. But He's one God, that was God in the days of the fatherhood; He was God in the days of the sonship; He's God in the days of the dispensation of the Holy Spirit. The same God. Not three different ones, not three persons, not three personalities; He's one person, one personality. You cannot be a personality without being a person. Some people said, "He's not three persons, but He's three personalities." You cannot divide that,...

You can believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and still carry your filth with you. But you can absolutely live in a both justified and a clean, holy life, and without the Holy Ghost.
