1. GOD
In our previous study we saw that the term
“God” in Genesis 1:1 is plural.
Consequently, the Godhead (Rom 1:20)
consists of three distinct beings referred to
as God the Father, God the Son and God
the Holy Spirit. These three are spirits and
have distinct personalities. Today we will
examine what the Bible teaches
concerning God the Son.
