Description

#04: The Godhead, Trinity, Triune, Deity, whatever term you use, wrapping our head around three people in one can be a bit confusing. In this episode we explore why it is important for us to know each person of the Trinity and how our earthly family dynamics can impact how we view the Godhead. 

Key Takeaways:

• Dr. Scott Horrell of Dallas Theological Seminary says, “Understanding who God is will define why you and I exist, who we are as persons, and how we may most be fulfilled individually and in relation to other persons, the natural world, and most of all our Creator.”
• Dr. Scott Horrell of Dallas Theological Seminary says, “Understanding who God is will define why you and I exist, who we are as persons, and how we may most be fulfilled individually and in relation to other persons, the natural world, and most of all our Creator.”
• Jesus is God just as the Father is God, not lesser or greater. He performs miracles that only God can do. He forgives sins, and He accepts worship. In every interaction with creation, Jesus reveals Himself as the Son of God.
• The Holy Spirit is the “other” Counselor with Jesus. He possesses all the divine attributes of God. He is no greater and no lesser than the Father or the Son. He has proceeded from both the Father and the Son for all eternity.
• Our earthly family dynamics can have an influence on how we view the Trinity.
