All About GOD

All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

Ok, this is a little overwelming.

 

I've been listening to Days of Elijah. Naturally, if taken into context "There' no God like Jehovah" would be refering to Jesus.

 

Excuse me I have to stop and take a breath. Wow...after hearing for years "Jehovah" and "Jesus" being put into two different catagories...this is overwelming-in a good way.

 

I heard people say Jesus is Jehovah before...it just really started to sink in.I mean I knew He was God. It's just hearing Jehovah and Jesus being spoken of in the same sence of the name.

 

After going through their little yellow booklet...it's been pounded in my brain for so long that the name  Jehovah is separte from the name Jesus. They didn't fully indoctrinate me, yet some things have rubbed off like the name issue(don't worry their big time doctrines, like on the resurrection,hasn't rubbed off on me). I mean I know He is Jehovah...it's just actually hearing/reading people admit it..it overwelms me. I'm used to a "spiritual athorithy"(a false one sadly) sepearting the names. I'm not used to hearing people saying "Jesus is Jehovah'...wow! I guess you could say that is like indoctrination. Being told over and over something and than your brain automatically, lets say separates the names concerning this situation, sepeatres the names because that's what you've been told for so long.

 

Before I believed Jesus was God I just said (this was before the JW's) "God and Jesus". So, I separated the names as well...

 

Excuse me this is just so overwelming. Honestly, when I was younger, a little girl, I didn't believe He was God. Even after I found out I struggled with it (God fixed that though). So, actually knowing Him as God is still kind of new to me(He's only had me saved a little over 2 years).

 

Wow, so it's ok to say "Jesus is Jehovah"....woah! That is so overwelming!

feetbreeze,

I explain the Christian doctrine of the Trinity and the Biblical basis for it here: http://apologeticsuk.blogspot.com/2012/01/trinity-defended.html.

What is important to understand is that the Father and Son are one in essence but distinct (though equally divine and eternal) persons.

I hope this helps.

Thanks.

Jonathan, I enjoyed reading this and listening to what Ravi Zacharias had to say. The person of Holy Spirit as well is revealed in Scriptures and imparts power for hope, for prayer, for preaching, etc...  and is called Spirit of grace, Spirit of truth. He is described as the Spirit, the Spirit of God, the Spirit of Christ and yet there is not three Spirits but one Spirit in relationship with both Father and Son.
