(Deuteronomy 4:2 [KJV]) Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I
command you.
(Proverbs 30:5, 6 [KJV]) Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him. Add thou not unto his words, lest he reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.
(Isaiah 28:10 [KJV])
For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:
(Isaiah 28:13 [KJV])
But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.
(2 Peter 1:20 [KJV])
Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.
All of the studies, book or topical, found here, are done with research with mainly two things: The KING JAMES BIBLE and a plain old, 1828 Webster's Dictionary. Why? Outside of actually studying secular and Jewish history, archaeology, one needs nothing more. You do not need foreign, dead languages that no one speaks, lexicons, concordances or commentaries, because they differ not only with one another and with the KING JAMES BIBLE, but they create division, confusion, debate, and unbelief. We do not need them. That Word of God written and preserved for us in our own language is supposed to be enough, like the Old Testament was for the Jews, and the New Testament for the early Christians in Greek, Latin, Italian, Spanish, German, etc. There are studies within as tangents on words, subjects found within the two testaments, as to broaden the scope of the study, to learn more, deeper truths. This is not an intellectual site with PhDs, theologians, and no worldly wisdom.. Check everything out, everything. Not just here, but with everything you read and see and hear. Be Bereans:
(Acts 17:11 [KJV])
These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the word with all readiness of mind, and searched the scriptures daily, whether those things were so.
Always research for yourself, use all of the context, and never privately interpret!
THE TRINITY OF GOD
God is a Tri-une Being, fully God. Three persons, The Father, the Son, the Holy Ghost, three distinct persons, co-equal, co-eternal, united as One God, the Godhead.
TRIN'ITY, n. [L. trinitas; tres and unus, unitas, one, unity.]
In theology, the union of three persons in one Godhead, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. In my whole essay, there is not any thing like an objection against the Trinity.
Mankind is a triune being, fully man. Man has a body, he is a soul and, when born aggain, hte has a living Spirit, the Spirit of the livign God in him and his own spirit is alive for the first time, when he believes on the LORD Jesus Christ and in His shed Blood for our sins, alone for his salvation. When we are born, our body and soul are what give us life. When we become born again, all three parts of us will live forever with Jesus in eternity. When a person dies without Christ, their soul lives forever in a fiery hell, their body here rots in the ground, their spirit never lives again. At the first resurrection in Revelation, their body is reunited with their soul, by God, adn that will be judged forever in hell, thrown into the lake of fire.
(Genesis 1:26-27 [AKJV/PCE])
¶ And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

(Acts 1:4 [AKJV/PCE])
The former treatise have I made, O Theophilus, of all that Jesus began both to do and teach, Until the day in which he was taken up, after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
And, being assembled together with them, commanded them that they should not depart from Jerusalem, but wait for the promise of the Father, which, saith he, ye have heard of me. For John truly baptized with water; but ye shall be baptized with the Holy Ghost not many days hence.

Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me? The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
God the Father and God the Son, a clear declaration which, if not true they Jews would never have tried to stone Jesus.
(Matthew 28:19 [AKJV/PCE])
