Trinity and the Law

Point of Law:

"...at the mouth of two witnesses, or at the mouth of three witnesses, shall the matter be established".

The New Testament also shows how widely that same principle applies:

"...In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established".

Every word. Requires two or three witnesses. To be confirmed.

God's commands are an expression of Who He Himself is - His eternal nature and Godhead. So God wouldn't provide any less Himself than what He expects us to provide.

God said that He is the only true and eternal God, and that God is love.

The only way we can therefore know assuredly that what God said is true...

the only way we can know for sure that He is the only eternal and true God...

...and that God truly is love...

...is if we have two or three witnesses to that Word, to that fact.

Because the requirement that every word must be confirmed by two or three witnesses, is itself part of the Divine nature.

We therefore couldn't know assuredly that God is the true God, and that He was before all things, unless there are two or three witnesses who also were before all things and Who witnessed that God was before all things.

We couldn't know for sure that God has for eternity been the only true God, unless there have always in eternity been two or three witnesses Who witnessed for an eternity that God has always been and that beside Him there is no other.

It can't be known that someone is loving unless he has someone to love - and unless there are two or three witnesses that he is expressing love.

The only we we can know for sure that God is love and that He has always been love, is if we have two or three witnesses Who witnessed in eternity that God loved and has always loved Someone and never was anything else except love.

"For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one".
