The Godhead Explained

On several occasions, The Lord Jesus Christ revealed that salvation is bound up in a correct understanding of the truth. In praying to the Father, he declared that “This is life eternal, that they might know Thee, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom Thou hast sent.”

To what extent do we “know” God? Is our knowledge according to Bible truth? Two opposing ideas are taught in Christendom concerning God.

Most churches teach that He is a triune Being, made up of Father, Son and Holy Ghost — one yet three; equal in knowledge, power and being, from all eternity to all eternity. On the other hand, Christadelphians claim that the doctrine of the Trinity is false; that God is one Being; that Jesus Christ is His Son, born over 2000 years ago, before which he had no bodily existence; and that the Holy Spirit (rendered Ghost in many Bibles) is the Power of God.

Both cannot be right, and, in the light of the Lord’s statements above, those who are in error are not in the way of life eternal, no matter how sincere they may be. So let’s examine this subject and ensure that we “know God.”
