Lesson 1 - The Person of God
God is Persons,
just as we are persons. He created us in His own Likeness, His likeness
but, with differences.
Let’s look at what The Bible, the very Word of God says.
Sword Drill: Exodus 34:6-7
Let’s look
into Gods Word at the nature and the person of God:
The Bible says
that God is one in nature, and three in Persons. This is called “The Trinity”.
This is like
one family with three family members. Each has a vital role to play and
neither acts superior to the other. They serve and Love each other perfectly,
and in complete Unity.
Trinity Calculation
1
X 1 X 1=1
Man is many,
whereas God is THREE in ONE
The First person is
named “God the Father”
He is the draftsman.
He draws all of history into His one great plan.
There are no errors with God in His beautiful picture, because He designs
everything perfectly
Sword Drill: 1 Corinthians 8:6
The Second Person
of God is Named “God the Son”
He takes the
great plan of His Father, the designer of all things. Just like the builder,
He builds exactly to the design specifications. He creates (makes) everything
perfectly
Sword Drill: John 1:1-3
The Third Person of
God is Named “God the Holy Spirit” He takes The Plans and explains them
to all people, like you and me. He
posts them in Gods bulletin board called The Bible. God the Holy
Spirit shows us Gods plan. If
we will listen!
Sword Drill:

has to support Himself.
