"-how much more shall the blood of Christ
(who through the eternal Spirit offered Himself without spot to God) purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?"
In Hebrews 9:14, Paul mentions, 'the Christ, the Spirit, and God' . From Paul's other writings (teachings), we know that he knew that 'the Christ' (Jesus) is God. The manner in which Paul writes the above scriptural passage clearly shows that he considers 'the Christ, the eternal Spirit, & God' to be separate persons. Couple this with his other biblical writings in, 2 Corinthians 13:14, Colossians 2:2-3, 1Timothy 3:16, Titus 3:4-6, & Hebrews 1:8-10, and it is clear that Paul's teaching is 'The Father, Son, & Holy Spirit, are God'. That each is a separate Being (Person). That each is God and there is only one God. The 'mystery' of God's nature is not fully comprehensible to man.
Thanks for taking the time to visit.
