Yahweh and Jesus Christ

the issue is SavedByGrace statement was not specific. Is Jesus Christ "equal in every way" to the Father and the Holy Spirit? There is ontological and economic aspects of the Trinity.
There is also the truth that we as finite creatures can not really understand the trinity, but can accept it as truth!

We see two references to Yahweh, but not necessarily two persons. The Second Person of the Trinity could send fire and brimstone out of the sky.
Except that the Person with Abraham said that Yahweh also was in heaven!

someone once said, to try to fully understand the Holy Trinity would drive any person mad; however, to deny it, would condemn them to hell!

the context, and Hebrew language shows that there are TWO distinct Persons Who are here called Yahweh. One on earth, the other in heaven. no other way around this!

I am surprised now many non Trinitarians are on facebook and others sites that deny this!

Quote please

just read Genesis chapter 18, and you will see that one of the 3 "Men", is called Yahweh, who sits with Abraham, and eats and drinks with him, and then in the next chapter He is there when Sodom and Gomorrah are judged

The Trinity is the name of the explanation that the Preson God the Father, the Preson the Son of God and the Person the Holy Spitit are the one God.

What is not commonly understood is that God cannot not be a Trinity of Persons.

I think you have made translation choices to claim Yahweh's location must be assumed to be in two separate places. But just as certainly, I can claim Yahweh (2d Person of the Trinity) was given the next morning, but not in the passage.

Genesis 19:24
Then the LORD rained down burning sulfur on Sodom and Gomorrah-from the LORD out of the heavens.
The LORD, Sir could be in Timbuktoo and rain fire and brimstone from the heaven.

Actually, the 2 men that went away were both called angels...

now you are playing games! either we accept what the Bible Teaches, even if it goes against our own understanding and beliefs, or don't bother with the Bible!
