TRINITY : M. M. NINAN<br />
8. God the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit<br />
In the Gospel <strong>of</strong> Mark, Jesus forgives a man's sins and some<br />
Jewish teachers thought to themselves: "Why does this fellow<br />
talk like that? He's blaspheming! Who can forgive sins but God<br />
alone?"<br />
In the Gospel <strong>of</strong> John, some Jews began to stone Jesus,<br />
explaining that they did so "for blasphemy, because you, a mere<br />
man, claim to be God."<br />
Evidently Jews who heard Jesus understood his claim to be God<br />
or equal to God.<br />
GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT<br />
The Holy Spirit is God<br />
Psalm 139:7-8: [David cries to God:] "Where can I go from your<br />
Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the<br />
heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are<br />
there."<br />
