Page 6 of 8 We worship ONE God who is THREE PERSONS. 1. The Old Testament teaches God is more that one Person. Genesis 1:26 - "Then God said, 'Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness; and let them rule over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the sky and over the cattle and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creeps on the earth.'" The Persons in the Godhead talked and planned and created people in their image. They gave people the ability to rule and make laws, or govern, the creation they made. They intended people to govern creation for the good of creation always. See Genesis 11:7 - "Come, let Us go down and there confuse their language, that they may not understand one another's speech." The Persons in the Godhead discussed among themselves what judgments and punishments they needed to make to enforce their government over people. Isaiah 6:8 - "Then I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, 'Whom shall I send, and who will go for Us?' Then I said, 'Here am I. Send me!'" The Persons in the Godhead discussed among themselves how to save sinners, and they discussed their plans with the people they had made. |
