Well I cannot agree with that- " Holy Trinity"?

I don't say Holy Trinity but I Believe in the GodHead Triune.     The thing is " Is Jesus " God the Son"?

Many will say He is Son of God yet the do not believe in His Deity .We Believe in the Trinity of GOD- God the Father,God the Son and God the Holy Spirit

The better question to ask is

Is Jesus " GOD"......

Then you have a yes or no question whether or not agrees with our SoF

I am in full agreement with Thomas.

John 20:28 And Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!”

You are splitting hairs. I call it the Holy Trinity. God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit. One God with three different persons. You call it the God Head Triune? I have never heard of that.

No,I'm not splitting hairs at all. I understand your question,I was raised Catholic and everyone used the term the " Holy Trinity" ,it doesn't make any difference to me at all The only thing that matters is Jesus IS indeed GOD,no matter what terminology anyone uses to describe such an indescribable Union is irrelevant.

The only reason I even joined in here is because I'd like to give our new friend the benefit of the doubt,let us consider and find out what he believes  ....just because we 3 may use different words doesn't mean we do not all Believe exactly the same,right? That's my point.

Now ,I see MrM replied with John 20:28 & a big In Agreement.

I too was confused with his reply " Shema",a monotheistic inference and now he's made it clear he Knows Jesus is God! Isn't that wonderful!Praise Jesus

The person who believes in the Holy Trinity believes God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit are all three God, in three different persons. I was seeing that Mr M would not confirm that.

Now we're really talking The Mystery of mysteries here - I've yet to have heard anyone who claims to have the 3-in-1 God all figured out!  And to try and do so, in my book, is ultimately an effort without profit. (like sheep trying to figure out trigonometry)

In what way are they different?

What I am seeing is that you will not confirm the recognition of authority that is presented in the scriptures,

and how that relates to sovereignty, which is the topic you originated. Does the Son of God (God the Son is not in scriptures)

exercise independent sovereignty, or does He always submit to His Father? Again, you refuse to acknowledge the scriptures

quoted in my responses, but you think you can force your dogma on others, and place labels on them. How about this one

for a label:NON-DOGMATIC.

If only we could get back on topic and discuss sovereignty, and the source of all authority.

Who needs the Holy Spirit when they have gotquestions.org? Sounds like an idol to me.

John 16:13 However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth;

for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak;

and He will tell you things to come. 

Deuteronomy 5:7 Thou shalt have none other gods before me.
