The Mystery of the Trinity of the Godhead Revealed
“The best picture of the Trinity is like the picture of the Sun. We have the Sun which can represent the Father God, the light which represents Jesus Christ and the heat (radiation) which represents the Holy Spirit. The Father God represents the Source of the Godhead, the Lord Jesus Christ represents the form and visibility of the Godhead and the Holy Spirit represents the energy emanations from the Godhead.
Thus God is actually one God-person having three God-attributes: the Father as the source attribute of God outside of space, time and dimension, the Lord Jesus Christ as the “shape-form” attribute of God revealed to all creation, the Holy Spirit as the energy-emanation attribute of God throughout all creation. (Remembering that one God-person can be omnipresent simultaneously in various forms emanating through all space and time – which to humans look like multi-persons but is actually only one God-person). He who has seen Jesus Christ has seen the Father (John 14:8, 9). In Christ dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily (Colossians 2:8-10).
In an extremely very, very rough comparison (and potentially highly not very accurate comparison as it is extremely limiting to the Godhead), the one God-person of God is comparable to the spirit, soul and body of a human (made in the image of God): the Father God being the Spirit Being of God, the Holy Spirit being the Soul Being of God and the Lord Jesus Christ being the Body-form of God. As I said, this is extremely rough and only accurately true up to less than 1% in speaking of our great Almighty God but it helps get some measure of understanding across to the limited human mind.
Another way of understanding the one person of the Trinity is as follows (this description probably is more accurate up to 30%). Imagine that it was possible to invent a time machine and I use the time machine to bring the Peter Tan of 1997 to this year 2007; and also bring the Peter of 2017 to the present. Suddenly standing before you are three Peters: one Peter 1997, another Peter 2007 and a third Peter 2017. At this point I ask you a question, “Are there three different separate persons or is there just the same one person Peter from three time dimensions: past, present and future?” The latter answer would be closer to the truth. Now imagine that there are three God-dimensions (for lack of a better word) but one God-person spread across these three dimensions in order to relate to us: God the Father dimension, God the Word dimension and God the Spirit dimension but all the same one God-person. Not one God in three persons but one God in three God-dimensions.”
- The Spiritual World (Peter Tan)
“It is important to understand that God is one God and one God-person. In the Spiritual World, what you believe (including false beliefs about God) hinders your spiritual progress and ability to interact with Truth. A person who does not believe that God has a form, is darkened by his own incorrect understanding even in the Spiritual World; and to him, the Spiritual World seems to only consist of invisible energies without shapes or forms because of his own undeveloped understanding. To him, God remains invisible.
We have a similar situation on a smaller scale in human encounters with angels. Sometimes in visions, dreams or even when a human spirit leaves the physical body and enters the Spiritual World, the angels seem like flickering balls or images of light to the human spirit. This is caused by his own spiritual sense of sight being undeveloped. If his spiritual sight is developed properly, he would see that the lights that he is seeing are actually human-like forms – angels coming to his aid.”
- The Spiritual World (Peter Tan)
I asked again, “Do the angels and saints who live in the highest spheres of heaven, always look on the face of God? And, if they see Him, in what form and state does He appear?” One of the saints said, “As the sea is full of water, so is the whole universe filled with God, and every inhabitant of heaven feels His presence about him on every side. When one dives under water, above and below and round about there is nothing but water, so in heaven is the presence of God felt. And just as in the water of the sea, there are uncounted living creatures, so in the Infinite Being of God His creatures exist. Because He is Infinite, His children, who are finite, can see Him only in the form of Christ. As the Lord Himself has said, “He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father” (John 14:9). In this world of spirits, the spiritual progress of any one governs the degree to which he is able to know and feel God; and the Christ also reveals His glorious form to each one according to his spiritual enlightenment and capacity. If Christ were to appear in the same glorious light to-the dwellers of the darkened lower spheres of the spiritual world, as he; appears to those in the higher planes, then they would not be able to bear it. So He tempers the glory of His manifestation to the state of progress, and to the capacity, of each individual soul.”
Then another saint added, “God’s presence can indeed be felt and enjoyed but it cannot be expressed in words. As the sweetness of the sweet is enjoyed by tasting, and not by the most graphic descriptive phrasing, so every one in heaven experiences the joy of God’s presence, and every one in the spiritual world knows that his experience of God is real, and has no need that any should attempt to help him with a verbal description of it.”

“Imagine that God is a Circle and we are all within His Infinite Being. Using this analogy, the Father can be said to reside at the Circumference. It is a plane of vibration that is finer than any other. In that plane is Pure Light and no darkness. Imagine that He reaches forth His Hand from where He is to where we are and to save us in every way. To save is to restore, to heal, and to prosper. Christ is revealed as the Arm of the LORD. Christ is the Center of the Circle and the Holy Spirit is the Tether to the Father.”

“Herein is the Mystery of the Trinity revealed: The Father is the Infinite Being where all His creatures dwell within. No one can see the Father because they can’t get on the outside of Him to see Him. Nothing can be outside of God. So the Father appears inside of Himself to us as Christ the Son. The Son is a projection of the Father’s Consciousness into the inside of his being where he can relate with us as one of us. When you see the LORD sitting on the Throne, you see Him as Christ the Son.
Jesus said “No man has seen the Father. He that sees me has seen the Father.” Imagine that you are The Father, and all the cells within your body are your creatures. Imagine that you want to allow your cells to see you. Therefore you project your consciousness within your body and appear as a single cell for the other cells to see. This is an analogy of how God the Father appears to us as Christ the Son for us to see and relate with in a close and personal way.
Christ is simultaneously Here and There, Above and Below, existing as the Father and the Son at the same time. When he appears as the Son to us, He can refer and communicate to his Greater Self as “The Father”. This reference and communication can make it seem like there are two beings, but the two are still One and the Same.
What about the Holy Spirit? Imagine that God the Father communicates from where He is to where we are using some sort of a spiritual telephone line. Some of us treat the telephone line as the Holy Spirit and may think of it as a separate being from the Father. But using the analogy of your own body again, imagine that you communicate with all the cells in your body using a network of nerves. The Holy Spirit is simply the nervous system of God the Father communicating with cells/creatures.
The Holy Spirit is really the same Spectrum of Energy that extends from the Father. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of Christ Himself. In this explanation is the Mystery of the Trinity revealed and understood. We can see how God is One and Three at the same time. It is all JESUS. God is Yeshua (Yahweh-Shua). And His Name shall be called Wonderful, Counselor (Holy Spirit), the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father (God the Father) and the Prince of Peace (Shalom/Wholeness/Holistic).”
- Enoch Tan (Creator of Mind Reality)
Jesus is God. God the Father (Infinite Being) humbled Himself and took on the Form of a Man (Jesus the Son) to be the Servant King.
Philippians 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men:
8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.
Trinitarian Christian VS ONENESS Christian
“I believe that Matthew 28:19 was a parable of sorts, and the disciples understood what Jesus was REALLY saying…that He IS the FATHER, SON, AND HOLY SPIRIT. Every time they went out to baptize, they never once said Father, Son, Holy Spirit. The Bible records that they ALWAYS baptized in the Name of Jesus (or the Name of the Lord).”

Matthew 28:19 “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost.”
What is the Name of God? It is the Name of JESUS!
Mark 12:29 “And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord.”
Isaiah 9:6 “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.”
