John 3:14-17 The part of the Godhead, Christ, had a special purpose. He came to seek and save the lost (Luke 19:10). He was God in human form and now is God the Son in the transfigured form. He bound Himself in the limits of the flesh to be the sacrifice for our sins (Philippians 2:5-11). His mission was to be our sin sacrifice that we may have salvation by His blood (Revelation 1:5). I am glad He accomplished this mission, aren’t you?                                                                                  

 (Matthew 28:18-20) It is by God’s authority given to Christ that we are to spread the word and baptize souls into Christ. If you notice in these verses the Godhead is mentioned. It is into that authority our salvation comes. God is one. All authority comes from Him whether we read that God is the Holy Spirit, Christ, or the Father. Its all the same authority. Christ even says that the Father governs His moves (John 12:48-50). That is an incredibly special and powerful authority that will forever remain unmatched. I’m thankful for that because that authority is where our salvation is found.                                                                       ...

(Romans 1:20) God is the Father creator (Acts 17:23, 29). God is Christ (Colossians 2:8-9). God is the Holy Spirit (Acts 5:3-4). He is all three in one. I know this can be confusing and it is beyond our understanding in many ways. However, in its basic form we can know that God in one with three parts. Each part has a purpose and work that is both divine and collaborative with all the other parts. God is an amazing God. This thought is just one of many that truly show how great God is. As much as we would like to truly wrap our minds around the deep points of this idea, we just can’t manage it. We are finite and He is not.                                               

“For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many gods and many lords), yet for us there is one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we for Him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, through whom are all things, and through whom we live.” (1 Corinthians 8:5-6) Some people want to believe there are many gods, spirits, and ways to a higher state of being. That is just not the case. There is only One God. There is only one way to heaven. Everything comes from Him. It is futile to think that in our limited state we could create a god better than Him. Not only are all things in Him and we are for Him, but we live through Him. Our wonderful immortal lives are gained and lived only in Him. Why would we want any other God? It just does not make sense to desire anything else.                               ...
