You say you’re skeptical on the trinity?

Did you ever here of the Kenotic Hymn ? It was written before the Gospels, and sang by the early Christians.
It is said that this hymn is an early liturgical creed that Saint Paul used in writing of 2 Phillipians 5-11

Here is an excerpt of the Hymn

“Humbled for a season,
to receive a Name
from the lips of sinners,
unto whom he came,
faithfully he bore it
spotless to the last,
brought it back victorious,
when from death he passed;

Bore it up triumphant,
with its human light,
through all ranks of creatures,
to the central height,
to the throne of Godhead,
to the Father’s breast;
filled it with the glory
of that perfect rest.

Name him, brothers, name him,
with love as strong as death,
but with awe and wonder
and with bated breath;
HE IS GOD THE SAVIOUR,
HE IS CHIRST THE LORD,
ever to be worshiped,
trusted, and adored.”

Philippians 2:6 Says “Who being in the form of God,thought it not robbery to be equal with God.”

This is because our Blessed Lord is God.

I wish you a Blessed Evening!

Actually, the Holy Trinity is made manifest in the Resurrection (Galatians 1:1, Romans 8:11, +John 2:19).

Really? What is your source?

At The Name Of Jesus

Do we have the same Hymn in mind?
