What I’m sharing today isn’t meant as an argument against the Trinity, nor is it an attempt to tear down anyone’s doctrinal framework. My heart is not to debate but to exalt Christ. The Scriptures tell us that Jesus is the Truth (John 14:6), and everything else — the Spirit, the new creation, our sonship, grace — all flow from Him and point back to Him. This is not about debunking others, but about beholding Jesus as the fullness of God revealed to us. If we keep Him at the center, we stay in the truth.
I also want to acknowledge something important. Some emphasize that Jesus came not to remain distant or “above” us, but to bring us into union with Him — to share His sonship, His Spirit, His life. That’s true. Scripture says we are co-heirs with Christ (Romans 8:17), that it is no longer we who live but Christ who lives in us (Galatians 2:20), and that He prayed we would be one with Him and the Father (John 17:21–23). So yes, He came to make us one with Him, not to keep us at arm’s length.
But this union doesn’t erase His Lordship. He is still the Head of the body (Colossians 1:18), the One before whom every knee will bow (Philippians 2:9–11). Our oneness with Him is not sameness of authority or divinity — it is participation in His life by grace. We don’t idolize Jesus as if He were separate from us, nor do we flatten Him into being “just like us.” Instead, we worship Him as Lord, even as we rejoice that He has chosen to dwell within us. The glory is that the One who is above us has also made Himself one with us.”
1. The Fullness of God in Christ
John 1:1,14 — “In the beginning was the Word… and the Word became flesh.”
Colossians 2:9 — “In Him all the fullness of Deity dwells in bodily form.”
John 10:30 — “I and the Father are one.”
Jesus is not a fragment of God, not a messenger only, not a prophet merely — He is the fullness of God in human flesh. The Almighty has made Himself visible, tangible, and knowable in Christ.
2. The Spirit’s Witness to Jesus
John 16:13–14 — The Spirit glorifies Jesus, not Himself.
1 John 4:2–3 — The Spirit of God confesses Jesus Christ come in the flesh.
The Spirit’s ministry is not to create a separate focus but to magnify Christ. If a “spiritual” teaching does not exalt Jesus, it is not the Spirit of God.
3. The Cross and the Obedience of Christ
Romans 5:19 — “Through the obedience of the One the many will be made righteous.”
Philippians 2:8–9 — Jesus humbled Himself to death on a cross, therefore God exalted Him.
Grace is not God lowering His standards. Grace is God fulfilling His own standard in Christ’s obedience. The cross is not just an example — it is the substitutionary act where His obedience becomes our righteousness.
4. Grace as God’s Power, Not Ours
Ephesians 2:8–9 — Salvation is by grace through faith, not of ourselves.
2 Corinthians 12:9 — “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is perfected in weakness.”
Grace is not our effort dressed up in religious language. Grace is God’s power at work in us. Our role is not to generate it but to receive it.
5. The New Creation and Indwelling Life
2 Corinthians 5:17 — “If anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation.”
Ephesians 4:22–24 — Put off the old man, be renewed, put on the new man.
Galatians 2:20 — “It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me.”
The Spirit indwells us, not to glorify us, but to manifest Christ’s life in us. The new creation is not self-improvement — it is Christ Himself living through us.
6. Our Participation: Receiving
John 1:12 — “To all who received Him, He gave the right to become children of God.”
Colossians 2:6 — “As you received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him.”
The Christian life is not about striving but abiding. Not about producing but receiving. Our participation is to open our hands and hearts to what God has already accomplished in Christ.
Christ Alone
So we circle back:
The Father glorifies the Son.
The Spirit glorifies the Son.
The Son glorifies the Father.
And all of it is one Source, one Almighty God revealed in Jesus Christ.
The glory of His Presence is what changes us. The obedience of Christ is what saves us. The grace of God is what sustains us. And our role is simply to receive.
“He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.” (1 John 5:12)

What is your point specifically? Do you believe in the trinity or not?
Jesus is always the Point, Trinity is fine for individuals to have relational roles, that reveal reconciliations and adoption. the father is Jesus, the son is Jesus, the Spirit is Jesus, there is only one God and only he is almighty, rather we call him father, brother, Spirit has no effect on any of that. and so the cross and Jesus ascending is the priority in concept, like Paul said 1 Corinthians 2:2. He writes:
“For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. (I only put a disclaimer not to be against any other holding)
