TRINITY : M. M. NINAN<br />

7. New Testament Trinity<br />

1 Peter 1.2: who have been chosen according to the<br />

foreknowledge <strong>of</strong> God the Father, through the sanctifying work<br />

<strong>of</strong> the Spirit, for obedience to Jesus Christ and sprinkling by his<br />

blood<br />

Acts 2.32-36: God has raised this Jesus to life, and we are all<br />

witnesses <strong>of</strong> the fact. Exalted to the right hand <strong>of</strong> God, he has<br />

received from the Father the promised Holy Spirit and has<br />

poured out what you now see and hear. 34 For David did not<br />

ascend to heaven, and yet he said, "`The Lord said to my Lord:<br />

"Sit at my right hand until I make your enemies a footstool for<br />

your feet."' "Therefore let all Israel be assured <strong>of</strong> this: God<br />

has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and<br />

Christ."<br />
