According to Jesus, God is Strictly One Person, not Three. [1 page]
by Anthony Buzzard rated at 1.6 (6 votes so far)
According to Jesus, God is strictly one Person, not three. Christians who value Jesus as the supreme revealer of truth should consider his classic words, uttered in a final prayer. "You, Father, are the only one who is truly God" (John 17:3). He defined salvation as belief in that One and only true God, and in himself as the Messiah (John 17:3). It is a serious hijacking of the words of Jesus if one adds to Jesus' creed. For Jesus, his Father is "the one who alone is truly God, the only one who is truly God, the one true God" (see also John 5:44 and Mark 12:29).

Sean Finnegan builds on part one and works through the five primary texts used to prove the personality of the holy spirit on grammatical grounds (John 14.26; 15.26; 16.13; Ephesians 1.14; 1 John 5.7). Next he explains how to understand the spirit based on the whole of the Biblical data and concludes it cannot and should not be locked in the straightjacket of trinitarian dogma.
