Hey everybody, Pastor Steven Amason here from Faithful Word Baptist Church in Tempe, Arizona with another Trinity moment proving that the Trinity is biblical and that oneness or modalism is a lie. John chapter 5 beginning in verse 18 says, Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him because he not only had broken the Sabbath but said also that God was his Father making himself equal with God. Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, the Son can do nothing of himself but what he seeth the Father do. For what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things that himself doeth, and he will show him greater works than these that ye may marvel. And so while Jesus Christ declares himself to be the Son of God and that he makes himself thereby equal with God, he is very quick to distinguish between the Father and the Son by saying, Well, the Son can do nothing of himself. You know, he sees the Father do these things and he does likewise. The Father shows him these things and he does these things. So the fact that Jesus is equal with God does not mean that Jesus is God the Father. Okay, what it means is that God the Father and Jesus are both equal. That's what that means. And being equal does not make you the same person. Okay, my wife and I are equal, but that doesn't make us the same person, right? Because we're equal in the sense that we're both human. We both have the same value. You know, God loves us equally. We're both just as important in the lives of our children. We are equal. Okay, so Jesus was equal with God the Father because they're both equally divine. They're both equally deity. We know God the Father is God. Jesus is God. The Holy Spirit is God. But they're not the same person because otherwise these statements would be completely meaningless and make no sense when he says, Well, the Son can do nothing of himself. Well, how can the Son do nothing of himself if according to these modulus, the Son is God the Father? He's doing everything by himself. And when the word self is used, it's himself distinguishing the Father from Jesus because they're not the self-same person.
