Nr. 542:
Salvation is God the Father incentive and it is he who decided that the way it should be. He consulted with no one but himself, not even Jesus!
Trinity doctrine blurs the Atonement greatness, depth and content. Neither the saints in the OT or NT thought, taught or instructed anyone to believe in three equal Gods. It is only and only God the Father, and no one else who is from everlasting to everlasting, he can not compare with or juxtapose with full, not even the Son. It's strange, Jesus never had a problem with being subordinate to the Father. It was Emperor Constantine who introduced Christianity mixed with pagan teacher who believe in polytheism or triad of God. The truth is that this never, never, or are a true Christian doctrine, but paganism mixed up with Christianity. Trinity pretends that the set (and sitting) three equal, equal Gods around the table to talk, discuss and debate who should do what. Who will take care of it and the task etc. This doctrine actually comes directly from the ancient Egyptian pantheon and Hellenistic mythology ispett with Christianity. Talk about Satanic hoax! This, too, with the exaltation of Mary are the same, we find it in the Egyptian mythology exactly the same as the Catholic church took up him. Picture here of Isis nursing Horus. Just as we find that Mary keeps on with Jesus.
1) There was no Council creation in the heavens of three equal Gods.
I have in my time among Pentecostal and free Friends heard a lot of things, but one of the most peculiar and odd ste is in the case of the Trinity. Have heard this outlay several times that in the dawn sat the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit and talking (preferably around a table to illustrate). Where there were three "hats" which stood for three different tasks. It was to be the God Almighty, the other being the one who was going to die and then the third and last was to be the Spirit was to come. So, these three Gods agree on who should be who, but they were still just agree and big etc. so I could have continued with what I have heard of nonsense, nonsense! And sometimes I have heard that Jesus said he was willing to be a human being like us, this is also the nonsense and spray. Jesus said absolutely not willing, this was a task imposed from the Father. All this was something Father had decided, wanted and demanded.
Notice that everything was according to his will free advice, this particular
Father sole itself. As it is written: "He made known to us his will according to his secret free advice, which he hath purposed in himself."
Eph. 1 7 In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace, 8 which he hath abounded toward us in all wisdom and prudence, 9 Having made known unto us his will secretly by his free advice, which he hath purposed in himself itself.
It says right out that Father had it as a secret in themselves what they needed to happen and who was going to meet him.
2) God Father "demanded" a perfect sacrifice for Adam's fault, sin and rebellion against him.
Having already been on it. God is perfect in one and all, so he demanded a perfect sacrifice as a "quid pro quo" for what Adam did. A fair death for all unjust. Now we will not delve into here when theme is that the reconciliation work is staged by one, God Father.
3) Jesus would and would drop.
Jesus was a human - like you and me - and he would drop is understandable. But he was obedient and went to Calvary is not primarily in my and your location. Yeah, so, too, but he's first and biggest goal was to be obedient to God the Father and be pleasing to him. My food did Jesus have to do God's will.
Joh 4:34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work.
4) Jesus was obedient, despite the desire to escape.
Here we see again and again, that Jesus in no way whatsoever was involved in the planning of our salvation, he was just obedient. Therefore, he was a perfect sacrifice.
Fil. 2 8 and after he being found as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even death on a cross.
5) The Father gave. This is the perfect love.
A heresy is that God came down and died, it was not God, but the Son of God and Christ - the Messiah - who died in our place. God sacrificed himself so deep he could through the Son. It is love that! He gave him up for us all! I have three children, what happens to them, it cost me far more than it happens to me, it is love that.
1 Jn. b 4 9 In this was manifested the love toward us, because that God sent his only Son into the world that we might live through him.
Joh. e 3 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
6) It is only and solely through the death of Jesus we become the righteousness of God.
There are some teachers who claim the Trinity than to believe in the Trinity to be saved, this is just one thing. Scare tactics staged by demonic and seductive intellectual powers. I know that there is only one thing that makes me righteous before God, that is what Jesus - God's own Son - did for me at Calvary. It can and should be no teacher seduced trinity take from me or anyone else who has rejected the Trinity.
Rooms. 6 23 For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.
7) The Father made this in itself.
We see again and again that the Father made things only in himself, as he is the only one that is the only true God, who is above all, even the Son Jesus Christ.
Ephesians 1 11 In whom also we have obtained an inheritance, after we assumed was ordained according to his purpose who works all after the purpose of his will
8) Had no greater to swear by. Although Son sat at his right side.
There are a number of repetitions as I need to write a few things about back then unfortunately all too many have been deceived and misled in believing a doctrine that is not nothing but a fantasy learn.
Hebrews 6:13 For when God made promise to Abraham, he swore by himself, since he had no one greater to swear by, and said.
9) The son was the man of the Father.
It is strange to read through the Gospels and thought of the Trinity, then becomes puzzled that it is possible to believe in three equal Gods or a triad God. It was the only true God who "ordered" the son, and he was obedient, it was his food and the desire to do God's will.
God is light, and His Son, our Savior, the Lord Jesus is the Light of the World, through that we receive Him as our Lord and Savior, we are also the light. Only through God the Father, the world may get salvation and eternal life through faith in His Son Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord.
Christians followed Christ, Son of God, who opened the door to his Father for us, and gave them / us the spirit of love, forgiveness and eternal life.
And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and whom you sent, Jesus Christ. "(John 17:3)
"No one has ever seen God. The only begotten Son who is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared Him" (John 1:18)
10) The biggest example of this is Abraham and Isaac.
1 Genesis 22 And some time afterward, God put Abraham to the test, and he said unto him, Abraham! And he answered, Here I am. 2 And he said, Take your son, your only one, whom you love, Isaac, and go to the land of Moriah and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee! 3 So Abraham rose early in the morning, and saddled his ass, and took two of his young men with him, and Isaac his son: he clave the wood for the burnt offering, and went on his way to the place God had told him. 4 On the third day Abraham looked about, and saw the place afar off. 5 And Abraham said unto his young men, Abide ye here with the ass; I and the lad will go yonder and worship, and come again unto you. 6 Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and laid it on Isaac his son, and he took the fire and the knife in his hand, and so they went both of them together. 7 And Isaac spake unto Abraham his father, and said, Father! He replied: Yes, my son! He said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for the burnt offering? 8 Abraham said, God will provide himself a lamb for a burnt offering, my son! So they went both of them together. 9 And when they came to the place which God had told him, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood, so he bound Isaac his son and laid him on the altar upstairs wood. 10 And Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. 11 Then the angel of the Lord called to him from heaven and said, Abraham, Abraham! - He answered, Here I am. 12 And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, and do him no harm! For now I know that you fear God, since you have not withheld your only son from me. 13 When Abraham looked up and saw a ram behind him, caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son. 14 And Abraham called that place, The Lord seeth. Why do people say this day: The mountain of the Lord he will be watching. 15 And the angel of the LORD called yet again to Abraham from heaven 16 and said, By myself have I sworn, saith the LORD, Because thou hast done this and have not withheld your only son, 17 I will bless thee, and make thy seed, as the stars of heaven and as the sand on the seashore, and your descendants shall possess their possess the gate of 18 and in thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you obeyed my voice.
We can not imagine the terrible pain Abraham felt when he was told by God that he would sacrifice his only son Isaac on Mount Moriah. God put him to the test, but intervened before it was accomplished. We can draw a clear parallel between this event and when Jesus crucifixion. Imagine how much it must have hurt God, when he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Retrieving something from Einar Trygve Fencing:
At Easter we are witnessing the greatest event of all time. It is the largest because it is divine and because it is God who sacrifices his own only Son, an atoning sacrifice for all sin. Yet the nature darkened and "hidden" in modesty before God for what happened. Such respect and reverence exhibited the creation of this vast that shook the entire universe. The curtain in the Temple was rent from top to bottom when Jesus cried with a loud voice, and gave up the ghost. The partition was taken away! Mat. 27, 50 - 51 Nowadays it has become fashionable to dramatize such biblical events. People love entertainment, and not shy to use the divine as the subject of his dramas. There is no shyness! Just an incredible audacity and insolence towards God. Running plays with the saints is blasphemy and sacrilege that the early Christians hated and warned for! We must do the same today it can cost us our souls if we do not take this seriously and warns where we are reminded to warn.
The great salvation on Calvary under many examples in the Old Testament, but all they seemed of God and pointing towards God's sacrificial lamb. People Bible tells of never thought of running plays for the Saints in that time. No, in awe of God waited in the fulfillment of God's promise to Adam and Eve and on to our oldest ancestors as Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Moses and David. Our text deals with God's promise to Abraham in which He in a painfully visible way did this for him. God would show him and all his descendants for what a pain it costs to sacrifice his own son. An unimaginable suffering, an unfathomable love and redeeming grace! Why did God do this? I believe that God had several purposes for it. It was not only the example of His own sacrifice of his only begotten Son, Jesus Christ on Calvary. (Most scholars believe Moria rock is the same height as Calvary. In any case, the Temple built by Solomon on Mount Moriah. 2 Chron. 3, 1). God wanted to test Abraham's faith. Remember God had chosen Abraham as the "cornerstone" of a people to be worse God's own people for ever. God gave Abraham a holy Land, the land of Canaan, for a possession for ever. God gave Abraham the promise of eternal salvation and reconciliation to all people, and this promise was repeated by God of Abraham "sacrifice" of his only son Isaac, v.18. and says to Abraham: In thy seed shall all the nations of the earth be blessed, because you obeyed my word. Abraham's obedience was the key to God's blessing. It rested a great responsibility on Abraham, a responsibility he could carry on God's grace. Only one has borne a greater responsibility here on earth, Jesus Christ, the Anointed Messiah.
Isaac said, Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for the burnt offering? Abraham said: God will look for himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son! A father's bleeding heart in their trouble his reply under the son. A tested Abraham by God's grace had completed his journey from Ur of the Chaldeans to Haran, from Haran to Canaan and now from Canaan to the land of Moriah, to sacrifice his only son, after lifting a child that was given to him by the Lord. A child who was after God's own promise to be a great nation, God's own people. Abraham had only one hope, and this hope, he said with the greatest toil and anxiety of heart, his inquisitive son, God will even look for himself the lamb for the burnt offering, my son! We hardly find any word in our beloved Bible containing such hope, such distress and pain and love of God that those words. How could Abraham's feet carry him up to this mountain? He put the wood on Isaac. Abraham had even the heaviest burden, a heart that would rather weigh him down into hell. The devil sat on him with all his Willow shoots, how should he be able to do this? Isaac, the fire and the wood! But God would give him another sacrificial lamb than Isaac? To order an excruciating pain and anxiety! Jesus Christ is probably the only one who has utstått a worse anxiety when in Gethsemane He sweated out his sacred blood. Jesus Christ was God's only begotten Son holy, without sin and guilt. Abraham was a common sinner.
The reason why he created us, Was idel eternal love,
And when he saw us completely lost, Come the His own Son down here.
Justice with sin burned And love the means found
Until Adam left to retrieve, And with us so strongly bound.
No. .. 259 J. G. Wolff
We see from our text that Abraham always had the hope to God that he would save his only promised son, for he said to his servants, when they parted at the foot of the mountain: Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there to worship, and we'll get back to you. He uses the word we and this tells us that he carried this prayer and hope to God that He may save Isaac. But when Abraham raised the knife over Isaac, Abraham had sacrificed Isaac everything in his heart, but when he had passed the test of God, and God stopped him and showed him the ram caught by its horns in the thicket behind him. This typifies Christ as sacrificial lamb! Christ not only took Isaac's place but he atoned Isaac and Abraham and all the sin of the world! He took the heavy stone from Abraham's heart, to the joy and delight! I imagine Abraham's feet had an easy and fair is walking down the mountain with the happy and redeemed son Isaac!
Who else could well take pity stone from your and my heart than Jesus Christ? He does it so often when we are in true repentance and faith comes to our platform, rock and confess to Him all that weighs down our hearts. When he eases our burdens, yes He eases our stumbling stones, stones sorrow, our angst rocks and all that the devil is trying to rob us of the peace at heart. We can put our children before Him, our daily needs, our sins, our temptations and our hopes, prayers of sorrow and joy. He cares for us, He restoreth my soul and leads me to rest on the green pastures for his name's sake. He will not let the penitent soul see doom, but it will live in eternal joy and happiness in heaven with all the saints of God and of the Lamb's throne. Amen. (End of quote).
Final comment:
In many ways, based on the Trinity fable, tradition and is inspired from evil spirits and ancient pagan religions. Study the scriptures themselves, read our website and blogs. There are other places to find inspiration, above all in God's own words. Believe right and good about God, it is recommended!
