Mengenal Identitas Kita Dalam Kristus

"Is God three or one?"  Consider this phrase : "Mark & ​​Spencer" opens daily from 10 AM to 10 PM." Why is the singular verb "opens" used instead of the plural "open"?  Because there is only one Mark & ​​Spencer - Mark & Spencer is 1 entity. They could issue a statement declaring that there is only one genuine Mark & ​​Spencer (since there are counterfeits). Internally, Spencer could say to Mark, "Hey... you are the true Mark & ​​Spencer," because Mark & ​​Spencer are two persons.  In the language of the Bible, "Elohim" is plural ( suffix "-im": cherubim, seraphim, etc.) , yet it possesses the nature of "Echad" (unity)—unlike "Yachid," which implies a singular entity devoid of other components.  There are many instances in the Bible where "Yahweh" (God's name) speaks using the pronoun "Us" (referring to Himself).  Genesis 1:26, 3:22, 11:7, etc. ...

"Tuhan itu 3 apa 1?" Bayangkan kalimat ini : "Mark & Spencer opens daily 10am-10pm"  Mengapa kok "opens" untuk kata kerja tunggal, bukan "open" untuk jamak? Karena cuman ada 1 Mark & Spencer - Mark & Spencer itu satu entitas. Mereka bisa bikin pengumuman bahwa hanya ada 1 Mark & Spencer yang asli (karena ada yg memalsukan). Di intern mereka Spencer bisa bilang ke Mark, "Hei...kamu adalah Mark & Spencer yg sejati" karena Mark & Spencer itu 2 orang Bahasa Alkitab "Elohim" itu jamak (akhiran "-im" : cherubim, seraphim, dst) , sifatnya "Echad" (kesatuan), bukan "Yachid" yg tidak mempunyai komponen lain.  Banyak penggunaan kata "kami" dalam Alkitab saat "Yahweh" (nama Tuhan) berbicara dg diriNya sendiri Kejadian 1:26, 3:22 , 11:7, dst Jadi jangan bingung dengan "Tuhan 1 kok 3, 3 kok 1", ingat cerita "Mark & Spencer" di atas 👌
