>>12902112I already know the difference between the early Church understanding of Subordination and the modern Trinity.
That term isn't needed and if that is holding people up from being Christian let me try to explain.
Jesus Christ is a temple, as he said.
The Father and the Son are one.
When you see the Son you see the Father.
The Father is with him.
Jesus is the Alpha and the Omega the beginning and the End
YHWH in Isaiah is called the beginning and the end.
What you have is more than just an adopted son.
In John it says that the Son is the one who has explained the Father, the Son is the one who has explained him.
It was the Son the entire time in the OT.
When Abraham stood with Elohim and and it says YHWH called down fire from YHWH in the heavens.
That was the Son.
When Jacob saw Elohim face to face and lived, that was the Son.
It was him the whole time explaining the Father to us.
They are one.
And the Bible and the symbols in the Temple point to three.
In the Holy the seat of God who is unseen.
Who only the High Priest has access to.
The High Priest being Christ who walks among the Candle of seven lights.
There is no need for the term Trinity.
And if it held people back from knowing who Jesus really is, than it would not be needed.
