Triune – A Defense of the Trinity
A Complete Understanding
A Reminder of What We’ve Confirmed

Both Biblical and extra-Biblical evidence for God, for ONE God, and also the individual deity and personhood of the Father AND the Son.

We’ve now CONFIRMED the attributes and personhood of the entire Trinity and how relate to each member. Let’s find out where we go from here.
A Summary of Key Points

1. To deny the God of the Bible defies logic and science.

2. Denial of the validity of scripture is to deny the validity of God.

3. All three persons of the Trinity are referred to as “God” in Scripture – and even Christ Himself claimed to be God.

4. All share the same attributes and divine nature.

5. We relate to the different persons of the Trinity in different ways.
Is There a Hierarchy / Subordination of the Trinity?

The Ontological Trinity (The Who):
The Economic Trinity (The What):
Same divine nature, essence, and glory – different functions.
Why Satan Hates & Attacks the Trinity
To separate us from the one TRUE God.
A lack of knowledge of the Trinity causes disunity in the body of Christ.
Why the Attacks Fail

They require the cherry-picking of scripture.

They require the selective refutation of scripture.

They require the abandonment of logic.
