hasantas;11723606]“Love” is the one of big reason to create universes for God. Love is tie and attachment of creatures that God loves what he created. Love is very important but can love be creator and be part of deity("…I was taught that the Holy Spirit is the love between God our Father and Jesus…") I have red Bible some but ı can not conclude that and ı did not see any explicative revealation in Bible about Holy Spirit
Your definition of Love is grounded in human traits. We are parted love.
Love is God. Watch what Love can do when True Love who is God moves.
Divine Love can love enemies.
Divine Love is unconditional.
Divine Love gives his life unconditionally for his friends,
Killing oneself and one’s enemies at the same time is not the same Love God calls our humanity to love one another.
(“İn the beginning was the word”) is that “beginning” for mankind and time or for God? I know there is no any beginning and time for God because God is eternal and timeless. So Word referes to Jesus because Jesus is Word of God (kelimetullah=word of God). Words of God are relating to God. But for Jesus word of God is an attribute. So ı do not understand Jesus was eternal(there is no certain evidence) and there is no any thing about Jesus in OT in that way yet there should be good news that Jesus will come
"God said, Let US make man in OUR image. The mystery of the Trinity can never be explained in academic terms or defined by human standards. It takes faith, that God gives unconditionally through His Spirit who is Love.
Now that essence of God who is Love does not come down to us less we die. But God’s presence is made known to us in, with and through the Son in the Holy Spirit.
No one can Say Jesus is Lord without the Holy Spirit. You are grasping at a mystery of God that only His Spirit can reveal to you. If you reject His Holy Spirit, how can you enter into these mysteries, which only He the Holy Spirit can declare and make them known to you in faith?
See if this can help you seek His Truth?
We are made in the image of God.
When you say “I love You” to your beloved see how we image the mystery of the Trinity.
From your essence (person) you sent your word “I love you” to your beloved. What you sent was not your essence, but your presence of the Love you have for your beloved. Your beloved recieved your Love, by hearing your Word, but your Word was sent from you in the voice (sound), when you sent your voice and the word from your essence what was sent in them was your breath. Yet your beloved recieved all you, and the love of your presence was known to your beloved who heard all three of you and she believed, because You sent them to her. Your word, your voice and word breath are all distinct from your essence, but all three cannot be divided because they are you One human being.
God is divine in every aspect of God that, when He wills to make known to humanity HIs Word and His breath from His voice veils His essence is eternally one God. Whether God (His essence) from the voice of command from the Father sends His Word (His only begotten Son) and His Breath (the Holy Spirit), these come down to us that veil His essence, to reveal what God wills to reveal to our humanity.
Thus the voice, the word, the breath are all distinct persons in the divinity of God, but they are all One God and no other. We do not confuse the divine economy of God which is the Father the Son and the Holy Spirit with the essence of God in all of these there is only One God and no other.
Thus we know the person of the Word of God incarnate is God veiled in the person of Jesus Christ flesh. Jesus full humanity veils His full divinity. The Son is never separated from the Father because He comes from the Father. What is hidden in this divine economy of revelation is the HolySpirit (the breath of God) is also a distinct person who is not the Father nor the Son, all three are one God consubstantial in One nature divine, undivided, never confused or separated, yet eternally One God.
So when Moses saw the burning bush that did not burn, speak the trinity is revealed. First the presence of the burning bush, Moses was told to take his sandals off, standing on holy ground, then the voice (Father) then the Word (decalogue) that was sent from the voice proceeded the Holy Spirit that gave Moses revelation and understanding what God was revealing to Moses from the first Person the Father’s voice, the second person sent from the Father in the Word (Jesus), and the Holy Spirit proceeded from that divine Word that gave utterance and understanding to Moses. Thus the Trinity of God is never divided, yet distinct persons in the Father, Son and Holy Spirit One God.
The human imaging the blessed Trinity does not in no way define or come close to revealing the mystery of God in the blessed Trinity.
Know one goes to the Father without the Son in the Holy Spirit.
Peace be with you.
