CORRECT UNDERSTANDING OF OUR GOD
Being and Person
Being is a quality that constitutes what you are and a person is a quality that constitutes who you are.
For example, who I am? I am Winston and I am one being and one person. I am human being and I am one person. But God is one being who has three persons. There is no other being like God on this earth.
From the beginning, in Genesis 1:1 God is shown as one being and three persons. In Genesis 1:1, God (Elohim) created the heavens and the earth. The word ‘Elohim’ is a plural noun. God is a divine being. In Genesis 1:26, God (Elohim) said, “We” (not I but We). Here the point to be noted is that God is saying and a plural noun is used for Him.
Though the word ‘Trinity’ does not exist in the Bible, it does not mean that we do not believe in it. In the same way, the very word ‘Bible’ also doesn’t exist in the Bible, hence it does not mean that we will not accept the Bible. Now, if you turn to the book of ‘Esther’ the term ‘God’ does not exist anywhere in that book, yet we accept the book of Esther as a book from God. The Bible is truly the Word of the Living God. Similarly, the term ‘Trinity’ is coined by the scholars of the Bible to describe the being and the persons of God.
Let us read Matthew 28:19 stating, “Therefore go and make disciples of all nations; baptizing them in the name (one being) of the Father and of the Son and the Holy Spirit (three persons)”.
Notice here, Jesus did not use ‘Name’ in a plural form cause He did not say ‘the Names’. The above verse clearly indicates in itself that God is only one being existing in three distinct personas. This does not mean that one person plays three different roles, nor does it mean that three gods clubbed into one.
