The Trinity is God as revealed in the Bible.
The Bible doesn't give us a systematic statement of the doctrine of the Trinity. But that doesn't mean the Trinity is not biblical.
In The Biblical Trinity: Encountering the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in Scripture, Brandon D. Smith proclaims the Trinity from the Bible. The doctrine arises not from a handful of prooftexts but from the fullness of what the Bible says about God. Through short reflections...

Many of us ache for relationship with God, yet feel distant and disconnected from him. As if he's more of an idea we believe in our head than a person we relate to. But God has a name: Yahweh. This one simple idea has the potential to radically alter how you relate to God, not as a doctrine, but as a relational being who responds to you in an elastic, back-and-forth way.
Why do we feel this gap between us and God? Could it be that a lot of what we...

Jonathan Gibson's 2 Peter Bible study helps participants learn how keeping heaven in view guides their daily goals and choices while strengthening their hope.According to 2 Peter, one day the earth will be renewed by fire, and we will live together in a new world where all wrongs are righted and all sorrows swept away.

In After Dispensationalism, Brian P. Irwin and Tim Perry sympathetically yet critically sketch the history, beliefs, and concerns of dispensationalism. Though a minority...

Unleashing God's Kingdom Every paragraph in Luke's gospel is about Jesus. Luke showcases Jesus' character by recounting all the significant events of his life, recalling his major teachings, and recommending his character as the truest way to live. The Jesus in Luke's biography doesn't wait for these events to happen to him, instead Jesus powerfully moves and unleashes the kingdom of God, proclaiming--and demonstrating--holistic redemption. This redemption...

Redemptive Peace The church in Rome was split into differing groups and in their zeal to advocate for their viewpoints had gone over the line of gospel mission to controlling ambition. In trying to unify a congregation he'd never met, the Apostle Paul starts the first half of his letter reminding the believers of their redemption in Jesus, anticipating the unity for their life together. Paul ends with a call for peace; a redemptive peace that speaks...

"There is no easy answer to the meaning of life--even when you believe in God. The book of Ecclesiastes seeks to answer the question: "What do people gain from all their labors at which they toil under the sun?" The book's central character is Qoheleth, who wants to understand the meaning of life as far as he possibly can with the tools of his own empirical observation and reason. He struggles to reconcile the beautiful world that we love and enjoy...
