The Holy Trinity, Day 1 - What Is the Trinity?

Awakened to Deliver – The Holy Trinity, Day 1: What Is the Trinity?Key Verse: Matthew 28:19 (NASB 2020) – “Go, therefore, and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.”Episode Highlights• The Trinity is foundational: one God, eternally existing as three distinct Persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.• The word “Trinity” isn’t in the Bible, but the reality of it is revealed throughout Scripture.• False views to reject: – Tritheism (three gods) – Modalism (one Person appearing in three forms) – Partialism (each Person as one-third of God)• Old Testament roots: God’s oneness (Deuteronomy 6:4), yet hints of plurality (Genesis 1:26).• New Testament clarity: Matthew 28:19 and 2 Corinthians 13:14 unite the three Persons in one name and one blessing.• The Trinity is essential to the Gospel: – The Father plans (Ephesians 1:3–6). – The Son redeems (Ephesians 1:7–12). – The Spirit seals (Ephesians 1:13–14).• The Trinity is perfectly united—one in essence, will, and glory (John 10:30; John 17:21).• Each Person remains distinct, as seen at Jesus’ baptism (Luke 3:21–22).• The Trinity is beyond full human comprehension, but it is a reality to worship and live in, not a puzzle to solve.Scripture References• Deuteronomy 6:4 – “Hear, Israel! The Lord is our God, the Lord is one!”• Genesis 1:26 – “Let Us make mankind in Our image.”• Matthew 28:19 – Baptizing in the singular “name” of Father, Son, and Spirit.• 2 Corinthians 13:14 – Grace of Jesus, love of the Father, fellowship of the Spirit.• John 10:30 – “I and the Father are one.”• John 14:16–17 – Jesus asks the Father to send another Helper, the Spirit.• Luke 3:21–22 – The Son is baptized, the Spirit descends, the Father speaks.• Ephesians 1:3–14 – Father, Son, and Spirit working together in salvation.• Romans 11:33–36 – God’s wisdom and ways are unsearchable.• Isaiah 55:8–9 – His thoughts and ways are higher than ours.Reflection Questions• How does understanding the Trinity deepen your view of salvation and the Gospel?• In what ways do you already see the Father, Son, and Spirit at work in your life?• How can you engage with each Person of the Trinity in your prayer life this week?Stay ConnectedFind resources, teachings, and ways to partner here:👉 Awakened Bible Ministries LinktreeSupport This MinistryThis podcast is listener-supported.
