Where Shall We Begin...

Read: Matthew 2:1-12; and Acts 17:23
"THE UNKNOWN GOD"

We begin 2009 with an understanding of God. God is viewed in the tri-personal nature. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are the three distinctive persons of our God. The only God, who is above all and in all, is with us. Emmanuel!

We speak of the invisible Godhead as the Father. God in the real sense has not been seen by human eyes. The only exceptions has been declared in the Son, Jesus, our Lord, who is spoken of in John 1:18 as having been in the bosom of the Father.

Jesus is viewed as the Son of God, and is in all the fullness of the Father manifested in the flesh. Many have come to understand by faith what we have been centuries removed from as human beings. However, the Holy Scriptures give witness through followers of the teachings of Jesus that the Son was the existence of God in humanity. Jesus was human, yet divine.

The Holy Spirit is the realization of God acting upon believers, and convicting us of sin while guiding the believer into all truth. So today, we shall begin with the reception of the Holy Spirit - God.

The doctrine of the Trinity is revealed in the New Testament. The current desire is for the members and friends of Metropolitan Community United Methodist Church in Harlem, New York to engage in the study of the Trinity. Through this study it is hoped that each person will experience God.

What a powerful year this shall be. In the beginning, we experience the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In the end, our experience of God sustains us.

Come, experience God with us!

Agape!
