The 'Lonely Triune God' LSM's Oxymoron - TOMES

[UntoHim]

In reading this article and following the discussions here I can't help but be reminded of what Ravi Zacharias has explained numerous times - That although the Trinity is a mystery, He has shown Himself to be a "being in relationship"....not only in relationship with his created beings, but the three of the Godhead are in relationship with each other. If we see this aspect of the Trinity then we can easily see that God has never been lonely. Please follow Zacharias very carefully in this short video and I think you will catch what I'm saying:

Good point. But on the other hand we have already been "espoused to one husband", Christ. One thing I would also say is that it it one thing for a teacher to take a bit of liberty and quite another to teach something patently false or something contrary to scripture.

That was why I got incensed about Lee's combination of ignoring and belittling the Psalms. The "inner apocalyptic" of the relations between the Son and the Father and the Spirit (and even the "ministering spirits" a la Heb. 1:14/Luke 22:41-3/Matt. 4:11) all are vividly portrayed in type. All of this is more than "dumbed down" by Lee's teaching; it is actively suppressed.

And thanks for the link to the video.
