THE WORD OF GOD:


earth, and all that in them is, including man
But what does the expression, In Ou1
image after Our likeness" mean? What
ever else it may mean, it carries this idea
AS the Elohim is plural, composed of three
parts, or Persons, SO man (if created o1
Elohim, and not evoluted from a proto
plasm-tadpole -monkey-stock) is also &
TRINITY IN UNITY, A TRIPARTITE
BEING, made up Of spirit, soul, and body
TheSsaloniams 5:23 is PauPs picture OF
a redeemed, blood washed man.
1t rs Elohim Who Creates Man, The
man sins Genesis 81, and must be redeem
ed; so after the fall, Jehovah (Who re-
deems) precedes Elohim (Who creates)
From Genesis Il to Genesis 2:3 it is more
especially God (Elohmu) Who creates, but
at Genesis 2 4 the Lord God Jehovah Elo-
him) steps upon the scene, fits up man S
Edenrc home, and seeks him after his ex-
pulsion from Paradise
At Genesis ~ the Whole Trinity is
i'll another conference concerning mans
expulsion from Eden, because of his knowl-
edge in sin:
i, And the Lord God said, Behold, the man
is become as ONE OF US, to know good and
evil: and now, lest he. take of the tree of
life, and eat, and live for ever Gas sinner
in mortal body.
Still Another Conference by the TRINITY
Isaiah 0:8:
Also I heard the voice of the Lord (the
whole Godhead), saying, Whom shall send
and who will go for US?
The Trinity is Also Revealed In the
Three Primary Names of the Deity God
(Elohim) Almighty God (El-Shaddai) );
Lord God Jehovah Elohim See Genesis
Il; H:1; 2Z.
The Trimitoraan, hree-fold description of
Praise From The Seraphim - Isaiah 6:3 !:
HOLY, HOLY, HOLY, IS the Lord of
Hosts.
The Trinity Was Foyeshadoaved IN the
APPeorance of the Three Personages to
Abraham in the plains of Mamre. Genesis
l8 Note these statements from this chap
| ter:
| THE LORD appeared unto him in the
plains of Mamre;
And he looked, and, To- THREE MEN
! stood by him;
| And Abraham said, MY LORD, if now
have found favor in thy sight pass not away
from thy servant:
And HE SAID, 1 will certainly return unto
| thee.
And THE LORD said, Wherefore did sa
rah laugh?
And THE MEN rose up. and looked to-
| ward SOdom. <.
And THE LORD said, Shall I hide from
Abraham that thing which 1 do?..
And THE LORD said, Because the sin of
| Sodom and Gomorrah is great.
And THE MEN turned from thence, and
went toward Sodom: but Abraham stood
yet before THE LORD.
Then follows his great prayer for Lot
and Sodom.
Gods Blessing upon Israel, through
Aaron the high priest, contains the doc
! trine of the Trinity
| NUMBERS 6:24-27 The Lord bless thee.
and keep thee:
The Lord make His face shine upon thee,
and be gracious unto thee:
The Lord lift up His countenance upon
| thee, and give thee peace.

In the Epistles, grace, mercy, and peace
are declared to come from God the Father
and the Lord Jesus Christ. See Romans
II; I Corinthians 3; II Corinthians 2

In I Peter 1:2, the whole Trinity is

J In the Epistles to the Churches, and in
i those to ministers, as Timothy, Titus, Phile-
mon, ETC., the Holy Spirit is not associated
with the Father and the Son in the sa1uta-
tions. This is because He is here in those
churches and ministers The Father and
Son were in heaven, and They unitedly
sent the Epistes to the churches where
the Holy Spirit already was.
The apostolic Benedichon upon the
Church, never upon mixed audience of
| Christians and sinners, is from the entire
