Most people can tell you what God does. Far fewer can tell you who He is.
This message is the who, and it starts with a bag of airplane pretzels.
Pastor Jonathan Evans teaches Article II of the Oak Cliff Bible Fellowship constitution, the Godhead, in the What We Believe series. One God, eternally existing in three persons: God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
In this message:
The four common counterfeits of the Trinity, named out loud: tritheism, modalism, partialism and adoptionism
The pretzel illustration that holds the whole idea, three distinct holes connected by the same dough
Why "my truth" is not a personality trait but a theology, and what it costs
The one question to ask anyone who knocks on your door and says they believe in Jesus too
Who "us" is in Genesis 1, tracked through Malachi, 1 Corinthians, Colossians and Job
Why God is the emulsifier of a marriage, and what an egg has to do with it
Baptism into a singular name that is three
If you couldn't work to get it, how are you going to work to keep it
Why God has never been alone, and what that settles about isolation, classism and racism
The devil knows God too, and he knows God operates in unity
Chapters:
00:00 Worship and praise
04:59 Prayer over the room
07:15 Only by His grace
11:39 Fifty years, one constitution
14:52 Article One into Article Two
16:55 Four things the Trinity is not
19:45 Why we serve one God, truth is indivisible
22:15 Deuteronomy, the Lord is one
24:51 Genesis 1, who said it?
27:51 Father, Son and Spirit in creation
30:03 The couple, and God the emulsifier
33:12 The same way God works in redemption
35:38 The Father sent the Son
37:45 Baptized into a name that is three
40:04 Can you lose what you could not earn?
42:37 Conceived, conquered, completed
45:02 Co-equal, and what that settles
47:20 The devil knows God too
49:18 The call of salvation
Scripture referenced:
Genesis 1:1-27, Genesis 1:2, Deuteronomy 6:4, Deuteronomy 4:35, Deuteronomy 4:39, Matthew 3, Matthew 28:19, Malachi 2:10, 1 Corinthians 8:6, Colossians 1:16, Job 33:4, 1 Thessalonians 5:23, Psalm 110:1, John 1:1, John 3:16, 1 Peter 2:24, 1 Peter 3:7, Ephesians 1:13, James
