Today,
reply is on the independent personhood displayed by divinity, and the
existence of GOD who is the sum of all spirit content. Just as GOD
is to be described as immortal and invisible, his character, process
and substance displays authority, dominion, oneness without sameness,
and personhood. Ongoing relationship between the Creator and the
created should be understood as appearing primarily through
consciousness, existence, and operations of will, rather than
exchange or interactions using social behavior, intellect, or events
and occurrences determined through mechanical and natural law. Even
so, it is written: Numbers 23: 19, King James Version (KJV): 19
God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man,
that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it?
or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good? One of the
fighters in the “Yahoo! Answers” public forum on Religion and
Spirituality who uses the ID “Anonymous” (no profile is shared)
posted the following:
If
Father, Son, Holy Spirit are three equal distinct persons that form
the Deity of God, does that mean that each by himself is NOT God?
They’re
only God when they all get together?

GOLDEN ARROW: God is
a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him
in spirit and in truth. (John 4: 24, King James Version, KJV)

“Anonymous”,
being spirit, divinity has existence without form. Your reply
requires sacred knowledge,
and uses concepts and language that has allowed many mature
Christians to avoid spiritual confusion when speaking of “divine
fullness” (we also say, active presence; the Godhead; the
Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit; the summation of all spirit
matter). Once we acknowledge that the makeup and substance of
divinity is spirit in its character, form, and process, we also
should grasp that spirit does not display the measurable dimensions
(e.g., depth, breadth, height, length, weight) associated with carnal
and material things. Spirit may operate within the frameworks of
time and space; spirit may put forth concrete and tangible matter;
and spirit may exist within the consciousness of created beings and
living creatures. The inseparable aspects of divine fullness include
balance, faith, holiness, longsuffering, lovingkindness, oneness
without sameness, personhood, righteousness; wisdom, and wrath
against sin. Faith is made only of faith; holiness consists only of
holiness; righteousness is only of righteousness.
Independence,
influence, and integrity of being exists for all the appearances and
manifestations of divine personhood. GOD can not be altered,
changed, manipulated, or reconfigured by whatever has origin,
existence and life from the expression of divine prerogative, eternal
purpose, and sovereign will. Divinity has used visible forms to
communicate with the living (e.g., the burning bush; the rainbow
about his shoulders; and the form of human flesh, we say, the
Incarnation, appearing on the earth as Jesus Christ). The divine
actuality transcends being in accord, having agreement, or unity of
doctrine and purpose that are all language describing human social
behavior. Developing and mature Christians are encouraged to realize
that spirit exists as both concentrated and diffuse at the same time;
and divinity continues as immortal displaying oneness without
sameness. Consider again the following that uses language from the
Bible:
1.
Genesis 18: 1-6, King James Version (KJV): 1 And the LORD
appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door
in the heat of the day; 2 And he lift up his eyes and looked, and,
lo, three men stood by him: and when he saw them, he ran to
meet them from the tent door, and bowed himself toward the ground, 3
And said, My Lord, if now I have found favour in thy sight, pass not
away, I pray thee, from thy servant: 4 Let a little water, I pray
you, be fetched, and wash your feet, and rest yourselves under the
tree: 5 And I will fetch a morsel of bread, and comfort ye your
hearts; after that ye shall pass on: for therefore are ye come to
your servant. And they said, So do, as thou hast said. 6 And Abraham
hastened into the tent unto Sarah, and said, Make ready quickly three
measures of fine meal, knead it, and make cakes upon the
hearth.
2.
John 8: 57-59, KJV: 57 Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not
yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? 58 Jesus said unto
them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. 59
Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and
went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so
passed by.
There
is far more that should be said, correctly examined, and spiritually
apprehended. (For example, 3. Romans 12: 4-5, KJV: 4 For as we
have many members in one body, and all members have not the same
office: 5 So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and
every one members one of another.) Even so, I trust this fragment
will be useful. Be it unto you according to your faith.
