And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.*John 1:3, Colossians 1:16, Isaiah 44:24 = God the Word (John 1:1) who was with the Father (1 John 1:2) is also with the Spirit of God (Genesis 1:2) Edited November 7, 2015 by JohnD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This truth is then confirmed in Genesis 1:26 and 3:22:And God [Elohim] said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth... And the LORD God [Yahweh Elohim] said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:This is the Mystery of God and no amount of human reasoning will ever explain the triune Godhead (Romans 1:20). The Greek word for God is Theos, but for Godhead (Divinity) it is Theiotes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I talked to a guy about all Branhams heretical doctrines including his denying the Godhead (trinity). It is odd how we met. I was out preaching the gospel. He was out preaching the message.

It is noteworthy that the doctrines which are always attacked first by every cult are the Trinity and Deity of Christ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy leads people to William branham and not Jesus Christ. (who they think was created), Every time he tried to describe that God is one, I'd say say yeah thats the trinity/ Godhead.Same with this topic, I'm not sure if the 1st post is advocating the trinity or denying it... He just quotes the first few verses of John and Genesis, which perfectly show the Godhead or a "trinity" - the "tri-unity" of God. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
