The Jesus Clubs - 7 Day Kickstart

DAY 3 OF 7


The Trinity:

In this short devotional, we will attempt to understand the mystery of The Trinity of God! First, we have to remember that scholars have spent their lives aiming to grasp the knowledge of who God is, yet we have only scratched the surface of understanding! So here are some basics. God is just ONE being with THREE individual persons. All three persons have existed together from the beginning and share one identity, yet have three individual roles! John 1 says God has existed from the beginning with “the Word” who is Jesus, and “the Word” was with God.

In the Old Testament, the way God is most commonly known is “Father.” In the New Testament, we see this Father sends his Son, the second part of the Trinity, who is Jesus Christ. John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world that He sent his only Son.” Jesus himself is also all-powerful and is fully God and fully man. John 5:19 says, “Very truly I tell you, the Son can do nothing by himself; he can do only what he sees his Father doing, because whatever the Father does the Son also does.” Jesus perfectly reflects the Father.

The third part of the Trinity is the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is the spirit of God and a distinct person of the Trinity! As Jesus dies and is resurrected, he sends the Holy Spirit to come fill the believers in his place, because it is better for Him to go be with the Father! The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God and makes a home inside Christians! 2 Corinthians 3:17 begins like this: “Now THE LORD IS THE SPIRIT . . .” and Jesus also says, “. . . the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, he will teach you all things.” Through the gift of the Holy Spirit, God literally lives inside of believers and guides their lives! 

Deuteronomy 6:4 says, “Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one.” God is three persons within ONE God. They interact in perfect unity and do only what the other does. As believers we aim to grasp the mysteries of God through study and prayer! As you study, ask God to reveal himself to you, and remain in awe of the fact that the all-powerful God of the universe wants to have a personal relationship with YOU!
