“Deut 6:4- Hear, O Israel: The LORDS our Gods is one LORD, yet Three Divine Essences! - RCV”
Ummm, The Jewish sages believe in ten emanations (Sephirot) of "The One" each of which has a personality. And,
Revelation 1:4
Prologue
John:
To the seven churches in the province of Asia.
Grace and peace to you from the One who is, who was, and who is coming; from the seven spirits before His throne
Revelation 3:1
The Letter to Sardis
"To the angel of the church in Sardis write:
"The One who has the seven spirits of God and the seven stars says:
Revelation 4:2-5
The Throne Room of Heaven
Immediately I was in the Spirit, and there in heaven a throne was set. One was seated on the throne, and the One seated looked like jasper and carnelian stone. A rainbow that looked like an emerald surrounded the throne. Around that throne were 24 thrones, and on the thrones sat 24 elders dressed in white clothes, with gold crowns on their heads. From the throne came flashes of lightning, rumblings, and thunder. Burning before the throne were seven fiery torches, which are the seven spirits of God.
Revelation 5:5,6
The Lamb Takes the Scroll
Then one of the elders said to me, "Stop crying. Look! The Lion from the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has been victorious so that He may open the scroll and its seven seals." Then I saw one like a slaughtered lamb standing between the throne and the four living creatures and among the elders. He had seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven spirits of God sent into all the earth.
Do you really think that you have the last word on the nature of God?
If you had only read the Bible, would you have derived the Watchtower’s doctrines denying that The Holy Spirit is a person?
Isaiah 63:9,10
Remembrance of Grace
In all their suffering, He suffered, and the Angel of His Presence saved them. He redeemed them because of His love and compassion; He lifted them up and carried them all the days of the past.
But they rebelled, and grieved His Holy Spirit. So He became their enemy [and] fought against them.
the Angel of His Presence = His Holy Spirit
Why would a Christian hating organization that denies that anyone can have God’s Holy Spirit teach them directly and individually have the last word on truth? I have repeatedly seen the same subject being taught at the same time from several different independent sources on TV, the Radio, Lifeway pubs (for example) and local pulpits. Only the Holy Spirit can do this.
Pray for truth from the source or do you not trust HIM?
Respectfully,
Paul
