Among Seventh-day Adventists the doctrine of the Trinity is often taken for granted. But increasingly it is opposed by a small minority who have retreated to the anti-Trinitarian position of the pioneers. In response the authors, each a specialist in his field, trace the doctrine of the Trinity through Scripture, church history, and the writings of Ellen G. White.; ; The first section surveys the biblical foundations of the doctrine and addresses objections that have been raised. Other sections trace the development of the doctrine in Christian history, in Adventist history, and in the writings of Ellen White. The authors explain why the doctrine was resisted by many of the leading pioneers.; ; The final section asks "So what?" It discusses the theological and practical implications of Trinitarian belief, worship, and practice, showing how it affects what we believe about salvation, atonement, the great controversy, and other significant doctrines. With glossaries, bibliography, and index, this comprehensive primer on the Trinity will shed new light on the central beliefs of Christianity, and show how God still leads His church into all truth. - Introduction; SECTION ONE--The Biblical Evidence for the Full Deity of Christ, the Personality of the Spirit, and the Unity and Oneness of the Godhead; Chapter 1: The Strongest Bible Evidence for the Trinity; Chapter 2: The Full and Eternal Deity of Christ: Part I--The New Testament Epistles, the Old; Testament, and the Gospels; Chapter 3: The Full and Eternal Deity of Christ: Part II--The Gospel of John; Chapter 4: The Personality and Deity of the Spirit and the Triune Oneness of the Godhead; Chapter 5: Trinitarian Evidences in the Book of Revelation; Chapter 6: Biblical Objections to the Trinity; Chapter 7: Logical Objections to the Trinity; SECTION TWO--The History of the Trinity Doctrine From A.D. 100 to A.D. 1500; SECTION THREE--Trinity and Anti-Trinitarianism From the Reformation to the Advent; Movement; SECTION FOUR--The Doctrine of the Trinity and Its Implications for Christian Thought and Practice; Index
The Trinity
The Trinity is one of the most central doctrines in Christianity, one of the tenets that is completely unique to the Christian faith. This full-color pamphlet explains the Trinity in clear easy-to-understand terms and illustrations. This basic booklet with a simple explanation of the Trinity also answers 6 common misunderstandings about God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It provides a basic study for those wishing to understand their faith and the Trinity. How to Explain the Trinity: The Trinity Defined The Trinity is one of the great mysteries of the Faith. Defining the Trinity is both simple and complex: God is One, yet God exists in 3 Persons—Father, Son and Holy Spirit. It is a biblical concept that goes beyond the human understanding. This pamphlet gives a basic explanation and definition of this important Christian belief. The pamphlet includes the following: A clear, easy-to-understand definition of the Trinity doctrine 60 Scriptures used to support the belief that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are all God, not three names for the same Person Chart comparing the power and attributes of the 3 Persons of the Trinity Chart comparing the "Unique" traits of God and Jesus Christian Beliefs and Church History Explained The pamphlet helps believers know what they believe and why they believe this critical Christian doctrine. In 12-panels of rich, well-research information, it addresses topics such as: What Christians believe about the Trinity: The Father is God, Jesus Is God, The Holy Spirit is God The Trinity and the Bible Misunderstandings about the Trinity How early Christians dealt with misunderstandings about the Trinity The Trinity in the early Church and the Creeds Important Trinitarian Bible verses and references Church History and the Doctrine of the Trinity More than 60 New Testament Bible passages mention the three Persons of the Trinity together. Theophilus, sixth bishop of Antioch in Syria, is the first person known to have used the word "Trinity" in his work, Refutation of Autolycus (AD 168). More than a half-dozen writers prior to the 4th Century defended the doctrine of the Trinity. (Names and dates are given.) Six Misunderstandings and Misinterpretations about the Trinity It's probably not surprising that a doctrine that's as critical as the Trinity is at the center of numerous misunderstandings. The pamphlet addresses six of the most common Trinity misunderstandings. The Christian Creeds and the Trinity The pamphlet shows how early Christians addressed these misunderstandings through some of the earliest statements of faith: The Apostles' Creed, written in the second century The Nicene Creed, written in 325 AD Athanasian Creed, written c. 400 AD Chalcedoian Creed, written in 451 AD One of the most powerful charts in the pamphlet shows that God and Jesus Christ share 10 key traits that are mentioned in the Old Testament as applying to no-one but God. Another chart shows seven divine attributes shared by Father, Son and Holy Spirit—with Scripture references for each.
