The writer is addresing the General Conference position sited in. Priorities, Jan 2012, Jo Ann Davidson, God in Three persons-Blessed Tŕinity.
t Excerpts taken from Catholic and Adventist Trinity 3 vs 1 by Nyron Medina.
27. The divinity of God has no reference to the three persons, but God’s divinity is IN the

three persons; however, what these points as taught by G.C Adventism implies is the
following.

i. If the three persons are divine, then there are three divinities that makes up God.
Each divinity is therefore God, and this equals three Gods. If each divinity is thus not separately God, then this is a different divinity that while being divine, is not God.
God is thus three, not one.
ii. If God is three persons or the “triune God” then God is not one divine nature,
God is also not Spirit, but is persons. Persons cannot dwell in the converted
man.

iii. One plus one plus one cannot equal one. But if this is how God is explained,
then the persons are God and it is not that God is in the three persons.
iv. It is this divine persons concepts that rationalizes the claim that Jesus came in
sinless flesh; it also justifies the divine blood of Jesus teaching held by the
Evangelicals.

28. However, the facts about the Godhead are:
i. God is not the persons, God is the divine Nature. Galatians 4:8; 2 Peter 1:4
ii. God is in the three persons, just as it is seen that God was in the body of Christ.
2Corinthians 5:19.

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES SHOULD BE?

WHAT OUR INQUIRY ABOUT OURSELVES  SHOULD BE? We are in the very last days, we are told that the last controversy will be very short. “We are standing on the threshold of great and solemn events. Prophecies are fulfilling. The last great conflict will be short, but terrible. Old controversies will be revived. New controversies will arise. We have a great work to do. Our ministerial work must not cease. The last warning must be given to the world. There is a special power in the presentation of the truth at the present time. How long will it last? Only a little while.” Ellen G. White, Selected Messages bk. 3, pg. 419. And in view of the lateness of time, what should be the inquiry of everyone? We are told: “The inquiry of everyone should be ‘whose am I? To whom do I owe allegiance? Is my heart renewed? Is my soul reformed? Are my sins forgiven? Will they be blotted out when the time of refreshing shall come?” Ibid, pg. 419. We must needs examine ourselves to see if we...

MRS WHITE QUOTES ON THE 1888 MESSAGE REJECTION

1. “The Lord in His great mercy sent a most precious message to His people through Elders Waggoner and Jones.” — TM p. 91. 2. “God gave to His servants a testimony that presented the truth as it is in Jesus, which is the third angel’s message, in clear distinct lines” — TM p. 93. 3. “The message of the gospel of His grace was to be given to the church in clear and distinct lines, that the world should no longer say that Seventh-Day Adventists talk the law, the law, but do not teach or believe Christ. The efficacy of the blood of Christ was to be presented to the people with freshness and power.” — TM p. 92. 4. “This is the very work which the Lord designs that the message He has given His servants, shall perform in the heart and mind of every human agent….God gave to His messengers just what the people needed.” — TM p. 95. 5. “The Lord would have these grand themes studied in our churches, and if every church member shall give entrance to the word of God it will give light and...

Summary Conclusion on the Righteousness of God

It is true to say that the Righteousness of God is the Law of God proper, it is equally true to say that it is Christ’s perfect obedience to the Law, for Christ is God, and all His historical obedience was righteousness. To claim that all God’s salvific administration towards sinful humanity is the Righteousness of God is to be on target, for so also do the scriptures speak. But what is the Righteousness of God that is imputed to us? What is the Righteousness of God that is given to us in Justification and is our salvation? It is none of the Righteousness of God we have referred to above. What we are looking for is a Righteousness of God that is without the Law, that is, a Righteousness of God that is APART FROM the Law of works, a Righteousness of God that is DIFFERENT to the Ten Commandments, this is the Righteousness of God that we are given in Faith for our Justification and salvation. The scriptures of the First and Second Witnesses speak of this unique Righteousness whi...
