Is God A Trinity PDF - Church of God Faithful Flock

CHAPTER FOURGod Is a FamilyARLY theologians were driven by the need to explainE the appearance of Jesus Christ. Some found theirexplanation by fabricating the Trinity doctrine.But since God is not a Trinity and since Jesus Christ isGod, what is the relationship in the Godhead? Is God one,or are there two separate Gods and is Christianity, therefore,polytheistic?In Chapter Two we found that the Bible teaches thatJesus Christ is the God of the Old Testament, and that Hebecame flesh and came to this earth to die for mankind. He iscalled the Son of God and He calls God His Father. By nowthe relationship should be coming clear- God is a family.We found in Chapter Three that we also can becomebegotten sons of God by the impregnation of God's Spirit- again a family relationship.When we understand that God is a family- that Godis reproducing after His kind - we are no longer confrontedwith the problems inherent in the Trinity doctrine,nor are we faced with the problem of worshipingmany gods.There is only one God family, yet there are presentlytwo members, and in the future there will be many more.Jesus was called "the firstborn of many brethren" (Rom.8:29).Look at yourself. Whether married or single, you arepart of a family. You have parents and maybe even childrenor grandchildren of your own. Yet, you are still onefamily.
