    Hello Darlene. The "Trinity" is a big subject, but I'll give the basics for understanding it, even though it's full meaning remains beyond our limited minds. The word itself is nowhere found in the Bible; it is however used to describe God's Nature in the best way we can. "Trinity", or in another way, 'a state of being threefold' best expresses what God has revealed to us of Himself. You will also hear of: Godhead or Triunity - these also mean the same thing.

    We believe that there is only One God: Isaiah 44:6, "Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his (Jacob's) redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God." Those who believe in the Trinity, do not believe in three gods - only One. However, throughout the Scriptures, especially in the New Testament, God reveals His Nature to us more fully. Just as we have immaterial parts within us (i.e. spirit & soul), so God is revealed to us by His Spirit & His Word. Zechariah 4:6 shows us both of these: ("Then he (the angel) answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the WORD of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my SPIRIT, saith the LORD of hosts).

    Even as God is One God, in the unity of the Godhead there are three eternal, coequal entities (also referred to as Persons) Who are same in substance but distinct in subsistence. Both God's Word & Spirit have always reached out & ministered to people, whether through the mouths of the prophets or by special dealing with God's people. But that Word that was once spoken by the prophets to Israel, is now given to all of us through Jesus ( Hebrews 1:1-3). So the Spirit we know, but Who is Jesus? John 1:1-14 tells us that the Word that was that very part or substance of God, God has sent to Earth clothed in humanity, for "the suffering of death" - God came to us in the flesh, by His Word, for the salvation of sinners. See also Matthew 28:19 & 2 Corinthians 13:14 for expressions of the Triune God.

    Imo an Animal ( our pets ) may be the closest thing we will ever see to an Angel here on this earth in our lifetime.
  • Glenn - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hi , there is no possible way you have committed the unpardonable sin, for only Gods elect can commit this , you must fully understand in what manner , that is possible. It can only be done , while the anti- Christ is here , an working his inequalities.
  • Glenn - In Reply - 4 years ago
    " But in Heaven ". ??? Yes correct,.. because Heaven shall be , right here on good old earth !!! So yes , animals shall dwell with us, in our natural spiritual life form. Heaven is not going to be somewhere else !!!

    Peace
  • Ronald Bearden on 1 Corinthians 1 - 4 years ago
    According to the way I was raised , and after reading KJV Bible more than once it appears not many church goers today pay attention to the traditional things taught by Bro Paul etc , including women are not to teach or etc to men , it's sin for men to pray or prophecy having long hair, women sin when they cut their hair and pray or prophecy ,

    Did you notice? David feared GOD & would not lay his hand on GOD's anointted & felt remorseful for cutting Saul's garment.

    1 Samuel 24:4,5,6 , 1 Samuel 24:10,

    Saul also ripped Samuel's garment 1 Samuel 15:27 however 1 Samuel 15:28-29. Even after remorseful repentance 1 Samuel 15:29,30,35

    Do think the significance of the clothing was a factor? 1 Samuel 2:19, His mother's sacrifice 1 Samuel 1:28

    Saul pursued David to kill him: 1 Samuel 19:1,10,11,15,

    & Saul ordered the prophets of GOD killed, possibly unarmed, their families, livestock & nursing babies included.; 1 Samuel 22:17,18,19 Same Saul that left the enemy King & livestock alive in disobedience to GOD's orders. 1 Samuel 15:1,2,3,8,9,

    Psalms 105:15

    David's mercy 2 Samuel 9:3-7,

    David's sin & judgement: 2 Samuel 12:7,9,11,12,14,18, 2 Samuel 13:1,6,7,8,12,13,14,16,17,18,19,20,21,22,28,29,30,31,32, after years 2 Samuel 14:25,30,31,32, 2 Samuel 15:6,10,12,13,14,16,23,30,31, 2 Samuel 16:3,5,6,7,8,11,13,22, 2 Samuel 17:21,23,29, 2 Samuel 18:5,7,9,10,12,14,15,17,20,27,32,33, 2 Samuel 19:1-4, "the sword did not depart from his house" etc. There were more scriptures about his consequences _.

    Queen Vashti, consequence Ester 1:19, Ester 2:4

    Saul then 1 Samuel 28:3,7,18,19

    David has Psalms of remorseful repentance, gives glory to GOD ALMIGHTY, shows mercy & humility at times. With Saul he shows remorse but didn't read much of repentance, etc.

    However the Bible says: 1 Colossians 1:20,

    Job 12:16

    Hopefully these are helpful in your study.

    My prayer request is that this country will submit themselves back to our Lord and Savior and that we as a nation will stand up and preserve the laws of the land (the constitution) so that our children will inherit the fruit as promised from our Lord and Savior.
  • Messenger - In Reply on Romans 3:22 - 4 years ago
    This scripture is really encouraging.

    Galatians 5:14 (KJV)

    For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

    This creates a environment free of Jealousy, hate, and debates etc. all the things that can cause health issues. Also, people will feel this. Show love; people will since this.

    Good reminder for all ( John 3:16,17)
  • David on 2 Chronicles 16:9 - 4 years ago
    The Lord is praised when we publicly praise Him at any time and place. This forum provides the saints a place to worship together with like minded people.

    May God shine His face on all and encourage us all to glorify the Lord. If we don't then the very rocks and trees will.

    ( John 8:36) If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.

    People are free from false prophets, deceivers, addictive habits etc. Because of the bible! ( Matthew 5-7)

    And sin ( John 3:16,17)

    This scripture is helpful, thanks for sharing.
  • Messanger - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Yes, Like this scripture

    1 Peter 5:7 (KJV)

    Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.

    Interesting. I haven't thought of it that way. I have however heard it pointed out for hope for all humanity no matter their linage but whom they choose to serve: Galatians 3:28, 1 Corinthians 1:26,27,28,29,
  • T. Levis - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hello,

    I just want to expand on your question/answers.

    1st perspective: usually this question is asked after a loved animal dies.

    If you just lost an animal that you loved, GOD knows our pain, suffering & sorrows.

    Isaiah 53:3, 1 Peter 5:7,

    Interesting scriptures about animals

    Numbers 22:28,30,

    Isaiah 11:4,6,7,8

    Genesis 9:5

    Hope

    1 Corinthians 2:9

    Hopefully these scriptures are encouraging.
  • Free - In Reply - 4 years ago
    oooh Dear all. Genesis 1:24

    "And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so."

    We all know these dayes that all the animal was saved in Noas dayes.

    The animals is innocent. I'll read that some day but cant remember where, sorry.

    Why create, and then eradicate?

    For us like food? Not every animal have gone too food. Like not all human have being saved in their life. There's is a separate conditions. In one way God have drown me too the Heaven. And ill live with God today. All thanks too Jesus who have going through the heavens for all.

    Mark16:15And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.

    I know animals well, and they laughs and cry's they evan mourns. And are happy and play. Have joy in they heart. And best of all we ppl shall have responsibility over them.

    Ill think i will see all different butterflies there too. And hear all the bird chirps. And i belive i will see all living creature whom i speak the Jesus Name woo. Life in the Name of Jesus.
  • T. Levis - In Reply on 2 Corinthians 4 - 4 years ago
    Let's start with the love of GOD

    1 Corinthian 13, please read the whole chapter

    John 3:16

    Psalm 103:8

    Psalm 145:8

    Matthew 12:15

    Those are just a few scriptures about GOD's love. If you study & read the Holy Bible you will find GOD's love all through it.

    Here are a few scriptures about sin

    John 8:34 & Jesus says about himself John 8:36

    Hopefully those are helpful.
  • Chris - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hi Glenn, I believe that Isaiah 11:6-10 speaks of the Millenium Kingdom of Christ on Earth. This is when Satan is locked away for 1,000 years (Revelation chapter 20), and he can no longer "deceive the nations" during this time. There will still be sinners (the nations) around, but not within the walls of Jerusalem where Christ the King sits & reigns ( Revelation 20:1-6) and the saved from the nations shall reign with Him.

    It maybe at this time, with sin's force curtailed that the animal kingdom will also lose its fierceness (result of sin's corruption of all things), & the once ferocious animals will now co-habit with the more docile ones. But in Heaven, there is no Scripture to support the presence of animals in God's midst, apart from the heavenly beasts & beings. One's wishful thinking cannot add to what is already revealed to us.
  • Adam - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Hello, this scripture isn't talking about literal dogs, but evil doers. I personally don't believe pets or any physical belongings or keepsakes will be in heaven. People won't even be given in marriage. Matthew 22:30.

    I believe heaven will be so ridiculously amazing you will be absolutely occupied and fullfilled with such an overflowing amount of love and happiness that the idea of dwelling and longing back to earthly things would seem silly- it might even be like Lot's wife who turned back and turned into the pillar of salt. Here God has given you this amazing thing with 100/100 ultimate love, family, peace, togetherness unlike you've ever imagined, but if you would consider turning your back on that and longing for the past, I think that could be like a slap in the face to God. I don't believe anyone will feel lacking in heaven or feel empty or longing for earthly things. That is my opinion. I believe people tend to say things not in the Bible in order to be soothing. But really all we need to know if hell is the worst thing you can ever imagine and heaven is the best thing you can ever imagine, so isn't the choice obvious? The right choice is to follow and trust Jesus and not carry out expectations and sense of entitlement. God bless....

    Good evening my brothers and sisters,

    It is 9:51Pm here in Texas and I have something in my heart and mind that I have to get off. I love you ! I don't know y'all I don't know what your lives are all about but I love you ! I never knew what real love was until studying more of Gods grace but also really opening up to him. There's that song by Keith green oh lord your beautiful ! More than half the time I keep crying when I sing it because God is beautiful. I may not know alot on how to speak or even other topics but I do know that he loves me and I know that I really do have brothers and sisters that love me and for that I thank you.
  • Glenn - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Isaiah chapter 11 ,.. God loves his animals,. They'll be there too !!!
  • Trish on John 4 - 4 years ago
    I'm looking for the scripture that speaks of our new bodies where we worship God not as husbands and wives. We will no longer be married but that we will know each other as brothers and sisters ! We no longer love each other as man and wife physically!
  • S Spencer - In Reply on John 1 - 4 years ago
    Brother Ronald.

    Part 2.

    As I mentioned I don't believe Adam would have been driven out of the Garden to keep him from eating of the tree of life because that life would have abided in him. And there would have been no need of a sacrifice or penalty of sin.

    Hebrews 10:14-22. For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified.

    Whereof the Holy Ghost also is a witness to us: for after that he had said before,

    This is the covenant that I will make with them after those days, saith the Lord, I will put my laws into their hearts, and in their minds will I write them;

    And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more.

    Now where remission of these is, there is no more offering for sin.

    HAVING THEREFORE, BRETHERN, BOLDNESS TO ENTER INTO THE HOLIEST BY THE BLOOD OF JESUS,

    By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

    And having an high priest over the house of God;

    LET US DRAW NEAR WITH A TRUE HEARTH IN ASSURENCE OF FAITH, HAVING OUR HEARTS SPRINKLED FROM AN EVIL CONSCIENCE, and our bodies washed with pure water.

    The spirit now dwells in us only by the blood of Christ cleansing of the temple. " 1 Corinthians 3:16. Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?"

    Therefore we have boldness to enter into Gods presence and so would have Adam "if" Gods spirit dwelled in him. He would have never been moved out of the Garden because of 1 John 3:9.

    Here is the difference between the 2 Adams- 1 Corinthians 15:45-50.

    Verse 45- And so it is written, The first man Adam was made a living soul; the last Adam was made a

    ( quickening spirit.) "Life giving spirit." Whether Adam sinned or not he could never give life.

    Verse 46- Howbeit that was not first which is spiritual, but that which is natural; and afterward that which is spiritual. We also inherit that which is natural not because Adam sinned, " Because he was a living soul. So is our 1st birth.

    GBU.

  • Arnold Benavides Jr - In Reply - 4 years ago
    Thank you so much for that. Sometimes I'll be honest my surroundings either in work or at home can be very frustrating at times but I am reminded of Psalms 25:4 .. I have to wait for him more and just go like the wind goes. Sometimes we don't understand the will of God but we have to trust in his plan so we can share with others the gospel. Sometimes I feel like maybe I'm not doing enough or even sometimes I feel like he's not there you know ? But I realize right after he's always there. When I feel down he's there. When I make my bed he's there. I just want more of his fullness. I love him and I just don't want to fail or not be brave
