GINOLJC, to all.Maybe being united, or joined as a whole, is correct.
Either way, it does not show that the trinity is wrong.
First thanks for your reply, second, yes its dose. did you understand the definition of a COMPOUND? Compound: 1. a thing that is composed of two or more separate elements; God is not separate, nor divided.
let 101G school you in the TRUTH so that you may KNOW.
understand, God who is the ECHAD of HINSELF is the EQUAL "SHARE" of his OWNSELF in an ordinal designation of First and Last, or respectively "Father", and "Son". let prove this out by the Scriptures,
Philippians 2:6 "Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:"
the term, "FORM" of God, is Spirit, (John 4:24a). and it's the Greek word,
G3444 μορφή morphe (mor-fee') n.
1. form.
2. (intrinsically) fundamental nature.
[perhaps from the base of G3313 (through the idea of adjustment of parts)]
KJV: form
Root(s): G3313
See also: G3445, G3446, G4832
now the million dollar and two cent question, is this, "WHAT KIND OF NATURE THAT MAKE HIM "EQUAL WITH" GOD?". Notice "EQUAL WITH" and not "EQUAL TO"., hold that thought,
the Root of this word, (form), gives us the answer to his, the Lord Jesus, NATURE, and this root word is,
G3313 μέρος meros (me'-ros) n.
1. a portion (i.e. an amount allotted, a part of something).
ANOTHER WORD FOR, "PORTION" IS "SHARE". there is our answer. not a separate person, but the same one person "EQUALLY SHARED", and in this case, G2758 κενόω kenoo (ke-no-ō') in flesh as a man.
this is why your compound unity is in ERROR. understand, in Philippians 2:6b, it states, "to be equal with God:", and not EQUAL TO GOD. for if he, the Lord Jesus was equal "TO" God that would INDICATE a separate ;person. but by the verse stating, "equal "WITH" God, that indicate the same person., for no one is EQUAL "TO" God. listen and Learn, Isaiah 40:25 "To whom then will ye liken me, or shall I be equal? saith the Holy One." ME, and I are single person designation. one more to get a double witness. . Isaiah 46:5 "To whom will ye liken me, and make me equal, and compare me, that we may be like?". again ME is a single person. ok, one more, Isaiah 40:18 "To whom then will ye liken God? or what likeness will ye compare unto him?". the term God is used and the verse, and it said "him", so God is a SINGLE PERSON. but in the ECHAD he is the EQUAL share of his OWN-SELF, (ANOTHER just as G243 ALLOS STATES). notice, Isaiah 41:4 "Who hath wrought and done it, calling the generations from the beginning? I the LORD, the first, and with the last; I am he."
The LORD/GOD is the First, and he is "WITH" the Last, and notice, "I AM, I AM once more, I AM ... HE".
I, and HE again are single person designation. Just like in John 1:1 the Word/Son, is "WITH" God/the Father in the beginning. see the "WITH" in John 1:1, as well as in Philippians 2:6, "EQUAL WITH" God. is the SAME one person.
now the revelation of "WITH" in the ECHAD of God. Listen, Isaiah 48:12 "Hearken unto me, O Jacob and Israel, my called; I am he; I am the first, I also am the last." ALSO? yes, the SAME one Person. see, "WITH" in the Godhead is the same one person "EQUALLY SHARED". that's why the Greek term, G243 Allos, (as mentioned before), express the Hebrew ECHAD as a NUMERICAL Difference of Ordinal First and Ordinal Last, and not a compound Unity. listen, Deuteronomy 6:4 "Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:" and the term ONE here,
H259 אֶחָד 'echad (ech-awd') adj.
1. (properly) united, i.e. one.
2. (as an ordinal) first.
[a numeral from H258]
KJV: a, alike, alone, altogether, and, any(-thing), apiece, a certain, (dai-)ly, each (one), + eleven, every, few, first, + highway, a man, once, one, only, other, some, together.
Root(s): H258
definition #1 is where you get your compound unity, but that's an ERROR, as we have proved by the Scriptures, that a unity consists of two or more which the scriptures clearly states that "GOD" is a single person. only definition #2. is the correct answer, because God is a ECHAD "WITH", his OWN-SELF as Ordinal First/FATHER, CREATOR, and MAKER of ALL THINGS. and Ordinal Last/SON,, REDEEMER, and SAVIOUR of all that he CREATED and MADE in the Beginning.
so, the compound unity is an ERROR.
the correct understanding of God is that he's the EQUAL SHARE of HIMSELF in Fesh. one can take this to the bank.
we suggest you copy this and study it for your edification. may the GOD of all CREATION give you understanding.
