92) #One For Israel: A Response to "The Trinity and the Torah, A Jewish Defense of the Trinity" - a podcast by William Schlegel, Preston Macy

0:00  Introduction. One For Israel, my own interest in Israel and the Jewish People

 

1:00  Why is “The Trinity in the Torah” a “hot topic”?
Because the Torah does not proclaim that God is triune. There is no declaration
in the Bible where the God of Israel says, “I am three persons in one”. If there
was such a declaration, there would be nothing to argue about.

 

Which Stumbling Block?

The One For Israel video states that the “stumbling block” for the Jews is the Trinity,
the deity of Christ and “incarnation” of one God person of a tri-personal god.  But such things are a non-biblical stumbling
block to Jewish faith in the Messiah. These are post-biblical, man-made stumbling
blocks that Jewish people are completely right in rejecting.

 

These man-made stumbling blocks prevent Jewish people from hearing and being confronted
with the true New Testament declaration about the Messiah, Yeshua. As the
Apostle Paul declared, the stumbling block for the Jews is “Christ crucified”.
The biblical proclamation is that the Messiah was put to death, but was raised
from the dead and exalted by God to God’s right hand. There is nothing in the
New Testament about Jews not accepting the Trinity or incarnation of one divine
person of a tri-personal God.

 

05:49  The “Mysterious Unity of God” which the One For Israel video repeatedly discusses is likewise a non-biblical mystery,
entirely foreign to the Bible.

 

9:09  AGENCY: The biblical principal of “the messenger represents the one who sent him” (agency) is a much better way to understand
the few passages that are put-forth as an attempt to show that there is a “mysterious unity of
(more than one person who is) God”. Many Christians, including Messianic Jews
who believe in the “deity of Christ” are not familiar with the concept of agency.
Once agency is understood, the fog of the so-called “mystery” is lifted.
