Hello everyone. Praise the Lord!
Here is an article by an unknown author I would like to share.
In the beginning what form was the Son in? There was no heaven. He wasn’t sitting next to the Father. There wasn’t a place to sit. Nothing visible or invisible had been created. There were no angels. What form was God manifested in? None. There were no manifestations. There was nothing except the Word. And that Word was in the form of an invisible Spirit- and still is. Logos is the mind and thoughts of God.
People have for centuries conjured up images of things that are not accurate or true. Please understand heaven was “created.” It has not always been there. The one throne in heaven wasn’t always there.
All things that were created? They were created by Jesus Christ. Who is Jesus Christ? God manifest in the flesh.
The Bible doesn’t teach the Trinity in any measure, -the Bible teaches about one God. Some say these three are one. That’s not true. Three are not one, but one God is manifested in three.

In the beginning then, what form or essence was the Father? The Son? The Holy Ghost. Three Spirit forms? The Son was an invisible Spirit? Three minds? You can’t say three minds are one mind.
God is a singular Spirit. Just one. John 4:24. The Holy one of Israel. The Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit is simply the name of God’s Spirit in us. It is a designation.
The Holy Spirit doesn’t think anything God doesn’t think. Two minds would be two Gods. Three minds would be three Gods. It’s unlearned to believe the Holy Ghost is a separate Spirit.
We are made in God’s image and likeness. Body, Soul, Spirit. We are for sure one being.
Jesus is the image of the invisible God. God was in Christ. There are not three persons in the Godhead.
It’s against what the Bible teaches.
The Father is a Holy Spirit. There is only one Spirit. That Spirit is God. That Spirit took on the form of man.
Heaven was created. In the beginning was the Word.
Nothing else.
That Word was God. The Word was the only thing. The mind of God, the thoughts of God. What form? The same as today.
God is an invisible Spirit. He has always been an invisible Spirit, and always will be. You cannot see God and you never will see God.

The imaginations of the Father sitting on the throne are just that- imagined. God is an invisible Spirit who no man has ever seen nor can see. He is light that cannot be seen.
“which in his times he shall shew, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of Lords; who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.” 1 Tim 6:15-16
“Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour and glory for ever and ever. Amen.” 1 Tim 1:17
“Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:” Colossians 1:15

Stephen did not see God when he looked into heaven. The Bible says he saw the glory “of” God. Hebrews 1:3 says that Jesus is the brightness of His Glory. It all points to Jesus Christ. In Him - not them - dwells all the fulness of the Godhead Bodily.
That invisible singular Spirit overshadowed Mary and was born of woman.
He was then in the world and the world was made by Him. That’s simple. It says it was made by Jesus Christ in more than one place.
Some Christian leaders get angry when someone gets baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. They will cast you out because you baptize in the only name that can cast out devils. They choose to be baptized - I can’t say in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, because they don’t. They get baptized by simply repeating the command of Jesus Christ instead of obeying it.
They say, “I now baptize you in the name of the Father, and the name of the Son, and the Name of the Holy Ghost.” Only they don’t - they don’t say one name. They don’t say the only name. Jesus Christ. Seven days after Jesus ascended Peter said to be baptized in that NAME.
Baptism is in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ
