The Trinity


Explained





I haven't read all the scholars on the Trinity, but my teacher, Dr. Gene Scott used to say that it couldn't be rationally explained. He said he believed in it, but couldn't really say what it was.

By combining what we know as commonly proved science and information from the Bible, I think I can come pretty close to an explanation. But it'll take a bit to lay it out in a logical argument.

First of all, through common science we know that for many decades science has told us and shown us that everything we see is just energy. Atoms of energy that are spinning around at a frequency that allows us to see a solid object. The object isn't really solid. It's more space than matter. This goes for rocks, trees, tables, chairs, and your arm. People used to joke about someone's head being empty space. Funny, but true. We are more space than solid.

It's like knowing that the human body is 75% water. My body sure feels like more muscle, bone and skin than water. All my bones and flesh and fat and cartilage only makes up 25% of my body? Hard to imagine, but true.

So, the whole physical reality that we live in is really just all energy.

That's science. What does the Bible say about our reality? It says that God created everything we see. There was nothing and then there was the universe. What did God use to create? That may be a bit hard to pin down unless we go back to the Bible and see what it says about sustaining the reality. It says that the creation was by Him, of Him and for Him."

If we extend those small statements out, it says that the creation was accomplished BY God. He created the reality for Himself, for His own reasons. And that the creation was OF, from/out of/part of God. In other words, God used some of Himself as the medium of creation. Another place it says that He sustains it, keeps it going. Bottom line, the creation is made up of GOD energy.

We are all God-energy, but we aren't the same as a tree. What's the difference between us and a tree? We won't list all the obviously physical differences. The greatest difference between us and a tree, or a rock, or a table, or a rabbit is consciousness. And I must mention the Self which is behind consciousness. Some will call it the Soul. Call it what you will, I think you'll agree that a tree doesn't have one. I'm not a Tree-ist. I have good reason to think that a tree doesn't have a soul. It doesn't need one to accomplish its created purpose. I'll let you make your own list of the reasons God included trees in the creation.

I certainly believe and science has shown that living things don't just sit there. People like to say that fish don't feel pain. Not me. I've seen the experiment where they put some yogurt into a think walled container and closed the top. They had some wires stuck into the yogurt. These wires were attached to a meter. They then brought near to the box something yogurt likes to eat. Can't remember what that was at the moment. As soon as the "food" got near the box the needle on the meter moved. The yogurt knew there was food around. Even though some would call what the yogurt did a demonstration of consciousness, it couldn't be said that it was the same kind of consciousness that humans possess. Who would argue that yogurt had a soul? No me.

Again, we have to rise to a higher level and ask for what is the yogurt's "consciousness" used to accomplish its created purpose? Yogurt doesn't need a soul.

Humans have a soul because it is necessary to accomplish their created purpose. What is the created purpose of the human race? That's some question. Not many folks will have any kind of answer for that one. Christians are especially ignorant of an answer, having been ill taught at church. Christian teaching generally shies away from what they have been told is New Age thinking. I tried explaining this to one pastor and after a bit he said a little prayer under his breath. He prayed for protection, I think, because this kind of talk was "from the devil."

The Bible teaches that God created the world for Himself. That means He didn't create it for us. It was already created and running long before there were any humans, Long before Adam and Eve.

Jeremiah in chapter 4 outlines the creation and its devastation. In one verse of the passage, he says that there was no man. He saw cities, bit no men. Then Jeremiah saw the destruction of everything, the cities, mountains, everything. No Aw-Dahms. Somebody with consciousness was using cities, the way we use them.

This vision by Jeremiah confirms what has been called the "Gap Theory." The idea is that Genesis 1:1 tells of a creation of the earth and universe. Genesis 1:2 tells how the earth looked at a different time. It must be a different time, because the earth was there but desolate. Did God, in Genesis 1:1 create a waste and a desolation? How then did the angels shout for joy at the creation, as it says in another place? Not much to shout about in a desolate earth.

This is explained as being the result of some cataclysm. After the first creation of the earth and heavens, some catastrophic event occurred that wiped out everything but the earth itself, including many members of the solar system, like Mars. This cataclysm was the result of the fall of Lucifer. The energy expended by God against that angel destroyed the first creation and Genesis 1:2 is the beginning of a re-creation process.

The other evidence for this idea is the text itself. The Hebrew words used for "without form and void" also mean "waste and desolation." The Hebrew word used for "was" is also translated as "become." So, Genesis 1:2 can be translated, as "became" a waste and a desolation.

This is important because it has to do with God's reason for creation. God created the first earth and heavens for some reason. Something cataclysmic happened to that first creation and God decided to make a second creation. Remember, He was using His own God-Energy to create the things that filled that second earth. But this time He also created beings with consciousness, human beings.

Let's take a look at us. We are all God-energy, with a soul. The Bible separates the body and the soul. The body may die, but the soul goes on. Paul says, "out of the body, present with the LORD." Our soul is God-energy, too. And because we are made in the image of God, we have certain abilities that God has, to a much lesser degree. But why do we need a soul to accomplish our created purpose? A tree doesn't need a soul, but we do.

Our soul is necessary and everyone's got one. Believers or not, humans all have souls. Why? What do non-Believers need a soul for? They aren't going to heaven, we're told. I think to answer this question, we're gong to have to skip humans and take a look at what the Bible says about angels.

The Bible always terms angels as male. Whenever an angel shows up, it's a man. It says that they have wonderful "magic" powers. They can materialize or disappear in an instant. They can sit down to dinner and have a nice chat with you. That's enough, for now.

First, angels are all God-energy. God created the angels using the same material He used for humans. There were no angels, and then there were. Are angels smart? You bet. They are way smarter than humans. They have to be in order to accomplish their created purpose, just like a tree. But what I want to zero in on is their ability to appear and disappear. How do they do that? The same way they can create things. I'm sure it was an angel that kept the widow, her son and Elijah in flour and oil for almost three years. And Jesus himself created wine out of water for the wedding party. Well, he didn't create the water, but whatever he did, it turned that water into wine.

What was that water? It was all God-energy. Those jars were filled with mostly space, spinning atoms. The atoms were arranged and spinning at a frequency that made the liquid water. Jesus changed that frequency so that the atoms spun in a different way and became wine.

Jesus and the angels have the ability to rearrange the molecules and atoms of a group of atoms and molecules to produce a different substance. Our scientists do similar things in the lab. They just don't produce "miracles." Well, some will tell you do. I just recently heard about them being able to levitate solid objects with sound at certain frequencies. I've read that some of the Druid priests could fly around on rocks. This ability would also explain how a 35 ton stone was lifted to the top of the Great Pyramid. Pulleys and hoists? No.

What about appearing and disappearing? Aren't the angels just rearranging the energy to make a human body? Do you think that angels have to eat? What kind of food does God serve in heaven? Right. And yet, angels in the Bible eat; and then disappear. It's just the ability to rearrange the molecules of a group of energy.

We have that ability, but almost no one can use it. There's a story of a hypnotist who after putting a man under told him that the man's daughter was not in the room. The hypnotist held his wristwatch in his hand. He asked the man what he was holding in his hand and the man correctly replies' Your wristwatch." The thing was that the man's daughter was standing between the man and the hypnotist's hand, which was behind the daughter's back. The hypnotist was able to free the man from his belief that he couldn't see through things. He couldn't see through things when he woke up. His daughter was just energy. He, for that short time was able to "rearrange" the molecules of his daughter so he could see behind her.

So, on a very limited scale, we are able to "create" like angels. We are able to assemble the groups of God-energy that make up our bodies. That's why we need a soul. Where does that soul come from?

It's God-energy, so it must come from God. The whole creation is part of God.

God could be termed as an infinite field of Energy. The creation process is the arrangement of groups of the God-Energy into physical things. The God-Energy is also used to group together the individual souls of humans or angels. The only difference between people and angels is the same as the difference between people and trees. Consciousness.

So all over the God Energy Field there are little groups of energy arranged in certain ways to accomplish what God has in mind for them. But humans and angels are the only ones who need to know about "creating' new frequencies. A deer doesn't need to read a book or the stars. God gave the deer everything it will ever need to exist. It doesn't have to know about God or energy frequencies.

That bit of God-Consciousness we call a soul is necessary to keep creating our bodies from moment to moment, even though we're not aware of it. God hasn't assigned an angel to people to keep their body going. That's the Higher Self's job. Angels have different jobs.

Did you forget about the Trinity? I'm getting there.

With all of the above, let's take another look at Jesus. Controversy has raged over the centuries about how Jesus could be all man and all God at the same time. And most people are reduced to a statement of faith. "Nobody can prove that. You just have to take it on faith." Not.

Jesus had a soul, Higher Self, just like we do. He also had a physical body, just like we do. That's what people can't reconcile, because they think we're solid.

Is Jesus an angel? No. Is Jesus a created being like angels? No. If we and angels and Jesus are all God-energy, what's the difference between Jesus and the rest? Consciousness. Jesus is directly connected to the God-Consciousness. He has to be in order to accomplish his given task. He has to know everything, be everywhere and have all power. I can't call a legion of angels, as he said he could. I can't raise the dead, as he did.

John says Jesus is the same as God, and it's clear that Jesus was not a created being, separate from the Consciousness of God. After all didn't Jesus create the heavens and the earth, in his then form as the Logo? Angels are good, but they can't do that. Jesus has one hundred percent God-Consciousness. I don't. I only have enough God-Consciousness to make my own body and find God. So, Jesus was 100% physical man, and 100% God-Conscious. All God and all man at the same time.

Have you glimpsed the explanation of the Trinity? How can there be God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit? Separate beings, all at the same time? The Energy Field that is God, has a group of individuated atoms that are Jesus and another that are the Holy Spirit. These all exist simultaneously, just as you and God exist simultaneously. If God blinked out of existence, so would we.

Here's a fair example. You are a trinity. Your hands can do the a lot of the same things, but not everything. You need two hands. Your Trinity is You, your Right hand and your Left hand. All three are necessary, but they are completely separate, and do different jobs.

By the way, the Holy Spirit is never seen in human form. Why? Doesn't he have the ability to manipulate the energy? I think He absolutely does, but He doesn't need to take human form to accomplish His assigned task. Maybe you've noticed that is didn't say "created purpose", like I said for trees or us. The Spirit and Jesus were not created.

The Holy Spirit's job is to "draw" people to God. He doesn't need a body to do that. He can just whisper in our ear. Jesus said that nobody can come to him unless the "Father draw him." Well, God doesn't personally do the drawing. That's the Spirit's job.

You know, technically, not only are Jesus and the Holy Spirit one with God. Because we also are part of the great God Energy Field, we are also one with God. We just have to make that knowledge real in our lives.
