OH GOD!

HEBREWS 1:8

"To the Son God says, Your throne, OH GOD endures forever and ever. You rule with a scepter of justice."

Have you ever wondered about the Trinity? The human mind has difficulty in grasping the three Gods united into one idea! When separated we can fathom a Father, and a Son Jesus Christ and we can also comprehend a Holy Spirit. Placing them together as one is the more difficult proposition. To the simple mind, how can three be one? That is were today's truth comes in, to explain what God is trying to tell our finite minds about an infinite God. Remember God's mind is above our mind and His ways are above our ways and to understand we need faith.

Listen to what God is telling us in this scripture. God is speaking to His Son Jesus Christ and He says, "your throne OH GOD endures forever and ever". In essence one part of God, called God, is speaking to another part of God, Jesus Christ and He clearly indicates that they are one by talking about the throne of God and His Scepter. We know God is speaking to the Son, because He says so. We know God addresses the Son as "OH GOD", and thus even though separate identities are indicated, they are both God.

Later in this chapter God also says to the Son, "In the beginning LORD you laid the foundation of the earth and made the heavens with your hands. The equation is simple, one to one. The Lord is the Son. God also says, "therefore O GOD, referring to the Son, that YOUR GOD HAS ANOINTED YOU. So even if it is difficult to comprehend the tripartite Trinity of God, He has made this and many other attempts to edify us. The main purpose of this scripture is to make certain that we can say without hesitation or trepidation, JESUS CHRIST IS THE LORD GOD!
O GOD, thank you for this truth for today!
