KNOWING FOR YOURSELF WHO GOD REALLY IS

QUESTIONS BELOW MAY BE USED AS A TEST OF STUDENT MINISTER KNOWLEDGE.

Always emphasize that it is NOT Up Way Publications, The Followers of Jesus Christ Fellowship, or you the teacher, or any other person on earth in the flesh today who is the final authority, but always, the Bible read and understood in context by the leading of the Holy Spirit  which will lead the sincere believer into all truth. If a person desires to be a minister of the Gospel, an absolute essential is to rightly understand who the God of the Bible really is. With so many different teachings on the subject, who can you believe? "… Let God be true and every man a liar…" (Romans 3:4); “But  though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.  As we said before, so say I now again…”  (Galatians 1, 8, 9).

    Not Copyrighted. Copies may be made for each of your students.

2.  Did God forget to tell us that He is a trinity?  Yes  O    No  O

3.  Why does the word “trinity” or a direct statement that God is a trinity or made up of three persons [if indeed it is true] NEVER ONCE occur in the whole Bible?

6.  Was God forgetting to tell us about the God-Person of the Holy Spirit and the Eternal Son all through the Old Testament, especially in all the places in Deuteronomy and Isaiah, in which He declared that He alone was God, that His glory He would not share with another, and that He didn't know any other God or Spirit of God (far too
many verses to list here)?    Yes  O    No  O

7.  What does the word “son” mean in the common language (forgetting theological terms, which are often tainted through direct satanic input).

Thank God, I was taught to believe the Bible, taking what each verse said with an understanding of and in agreement with what all other verses on the subject teach. And I submit to you that other methods of study do not bring out the real meaning of what God wants us to know about Him. They inject human reasoning, prior theology and fleshly experience rather than absolute trust in God's own Word in agreement with context.

To accuse God of forgetting or failing to tell us even one time in His Word in plain language that He is a Trinity, if He really is, is nothing short of blasphemy. And what else does the Bible say regarding those who add to God's word?  And what does God say about those shepherds who claim to speak for God, (Jeremiah 23 and elsewhere) but do not teach His people right things?

Those who teach the trinity doctrine are, in truth, Athanatians rather than Christians. The Catholics at the Vatican consider all trinitarians to be disobedient children of theirs but none-the-less, part of catholicism.
