The Trinity.

[Diane]

The Trinity. - Each part of the trinity has a unique role. God the Father is the creator, Jesus the Son is the Savior, and the Holy Spirit is the Helper. -

The Father... In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Genesis 1:1
For through him God created everything in the heavenly realms and on earth. He made the things we can see and the things we can’t see— such as thrones, kingdoms, rulers, and authorities in the unseen world. Everything was created through him and for him. -Colossians 1:16
Have you never heard? Have you never understood? The LORD is the everlasting God, the Creator of all the earth. He never grows weak or weary. No one can measure the depths of his understanding.- Isaiah 40:28

Jesus Our Lord and Savior...The Savior—yes, the Messiah, the Lord—has been born today in Bethlehem, the city of David! -Luke 2:11
If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. -Romans 10:9
Furthermore, we have seen with our own eyes and now testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. -1 John 4:14

The Holy Spirit the Helper... But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you. -John 14:26
And the Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. For example, we don’t know what God wants us to pray for. But the Holy Spirit prays for us with groanings that cannot be expressed in words. And the Father who knows all hearts knows what the Spirit is saying, for the Spirit pleads for us believers[a] in harmony with God’s own will. -Romans 8:26-27
And do not bring sorrow to God’s Holy Spirit by the way you live. Remember, he has identified you as his own, guaranteeing that you will be saved on the day of redemption. -Ephesians 4:20

DIVINE WORDS BY DIANE

This is a thoughtful way of laying it out, especially highlighting the different roles described in Scripture.

One thing that has really deepened my own understanding is looking at how these ideas connect back to the Hebrew Scriptures. In many places, what we see described in the New Testament is already present in the Tanakh—Yahweh as Creator, Savior, and the One who sustains and guides His people through His Spirit.

Exploring those connections has helped me see more continuity between the Hebrew Scriptures and the New Testament, rather than separation.

It definitely adds another layer to how these passages can be understood.

Without a doubt, the New Testament is a fulfillment of the Old Testament. However, some Jews interpret the Trinity as polytheistic. That's an unfair interpretation, but I think you're asking for trouble in viewing the Old Testament as Trinitarian.

[Benjamin]

That’s a fair point, and I appreciate how you framed that.

I agree that reading later theological frameworks directly back into the Hebrew Scriptures can create tension if we’re not careful.

What I’ve found helpful is looking at how certain patterns and expressions appear within the Hebrew text itself—particularly in passages where Yahweh is both revealed and yet also interacts through His messenger or presence in ways that are sometimes difficult to categorize strictly.

For me, it’s less about imposing a later concept and more about exploring how the Hebrew Scriptures themselves present these dynamics.

It definitely opens up interesting questions worth exploring further.
