Lecture 68- The Revealed Mystery of the Trinity in the Old and New Testaments- Part 4

The Revealed Mystery of the Trinity in the Old and New Testaments- Part 4 (Click Here)
Rev. Brian L. Kachelmeier
In the first chapter of Genesis, we are taught that all three persons of the Blessed Trinity were present at the creation.  The prophet Moses reveals who creation took place.  God the Father was speaking.  The Son was the active Word being spoken.  The Holy Spirit was hovering over the waters.  In this event, God reveals Himself to creation.  In the New Testament, we see the work of recreation being revealed to us at the waters of the Jordan River.  Jesus Christ, the Son of God, is standing in the water.  The Father declares, “This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.”  The Holy Spirit descends in the form of a dove.  In this event, God reveals Himself to the people of Israel.

The Revealed Mystery of the Trinity in the Old and New Testaments- Part 3

In the Old Testament, God has revealed Himself as the Savior when He lead the people of Israel out of Egypt and rescued them from all their enemies. God declares, “I, I am the Yahweh, and besides me there is no savior.” (Isaiah 43:11)  In the New Testament, God has revealed Himself as the Savior when He took upon flesh, was crucified and resurrected, in order to rescue us from our enemies of the devil, sin, and death. There is only One Savior. In the New Testament, we are taught to confess that Jesus is the only Savior. We confess that Jesus is Yahweh. (click here to listen)
