MikeL Iain Mcclain_wilhelm Melket Näher My two cents (or shekels) on the "Trinity" or "Is Yeshua God" question:

If you dislike the word "Trinity" feel free to not use it. It's not a word found in Scripture. But if you then come to the conclusion that Yeshua was "just a man", then you have a problem. "Just a man" can't accomplish what Yeshua did. Full stop. I don't profess to understand Yahuwah in all His power and greatness, but if as Yeshua said:

"Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
(Joh 8:58 KJV)

Then Yeshua is not "just a man" there's not a man alive throughout all of history that could have made this statement other than Yeshua.
We know from Scripture that Yahuwah exists, we know that His Son exists, and we've seen the spirit of Yahuwah mentioned throughout Scripture Old and New Testaments. As it is written:

"For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these THREE ARE ONE" (emphasis added)
(1Jn 5:7 KJV)

We know that Yeshua is referred to in Scripture as "the Word". As it is written:

"And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth."
(Joh 1:14 KJV)

Scripture teaches that Yeshua is "the Word". And that "Word" was with God, and that "Word" WAS God. As it is written:

"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made."
(Joh 1:1-3 KJV)

Again I confess, I don't know how this all works together, or how to put my tiny bitty brain around the self existing God of the universe.
But I think it's self evident and putting it mildly to say that Yeshua is divine in nature. Don't get tripped up with Christianese words and throw out the profound power of the Mashiach and His relationship with Yahuwah. They exist, but They are One. And I'm willing to accept that until the day when I can inquire of Yeshua face to face.
