KEY VERSE:
Deuteronomy 6:4
The Hebrew is within ( ): "our God" (Elohim) is a plural word meaning our Gods; "one" (echad) is a compound one shown also in one flesh in Genesis 2:24.
2 Corinthians 13:14
1 John 5:7
WHO: God mainly by Bible authors Matthew, Luke, John, and Paul
TO WHOM: Elected Christians
WHAT: Number for God's Triunity.
Prominent threefold statements are: tri-unity of God. three temptation of Christ; Peter's three denials; Jesus arising on third day, Peter's three answers to Jesus three statements of feed my sheep. Scripture also uses past, present & future as in delivered, being delivered & will delivered. Three objectives is seen in Jesus as prophet, priest & king. Likewise in faith, hope & love. Also in nature the three forms of matter Solid, liquid and Gas; thee states of matter Animal, Vegetable and Mineral.
The words Trinity and Triunity are not found in the Bible. However, the Triunity theological doctrine or teaching is found in the Bible to support one God, one essence, one being, one nature, and one divine Spirit who is indivisible which manifests Himself eternally as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit three distinct equal substances. The three manifestations always act in unity and agreement, and they have an order of Father to Son to Holy Spirit. They are not divided since there is a qualitative unique oneness acting in three separate personalities. What is most important is God can not be divided into three persons (as humans) which is not found in the Bible. If you see Jesus, you see the entire Godhead bodily (see Colossians 2:9). He is one God eternally always Father, Son, & Holy Spirit who shows Himself in these three characteristic ways. God is seen in His creation as in Romans 1:19-20, but His unique oneness can not be compared to or conceived by observing the created or nature order. His oneness is seen by His word the Bible.
The Godhead should not be compared by earthly element. Nonetheless, to try to explain the Triunity to a Jewish person who thinks that Christians have multiple gods, I am going to try comparing the Triunity (Single one compound God) to water in its three states of gas (boiling), liquid, and solid (ice) at the same time and same place. The water could be equated with the Triunity Godhead. The three states of water could represent the Father (Liquid), Son (Ice), and Holy Spirit (gas) who are manifested together eternally. The water could be a liquid form in which heat is applied and its starts to boil emitting steam. These two states of water exist together. A cube of ice could be dropped into liquid which has the three states of water: liquid, gas, and solid in the same place at the same time. The Godhead always (eternally) exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit everywhere (Omnipresent) in the same time and same place.
