FAQ # 131

QUESTION  131 :  In Revelation where the angels cry Holy, Holy, Holy is that the representation of the Trinity; three holies to three different beings?

I thought about including this f.a.q because of how absurd it sounds, but later found out many share this view.

There is no scripture to back up such an out and out claim. That’s like saying each time I praise God the more persons he becomes. See how ridiculous that sounds. How many times have you been in praises and use the same word over and over again to magnify God. Does that mean each time you do, it’s to a different God in the Godhead.

God is one being and the scripture declares that he is the “Holy One” not holy one here, holy one here and holy one over here or holy three; but rather one “Holy One.” The scriptures are very clear on his deity, if it were Holy Three in heaven it would have said so. For instance, take this verse of the two witnesses, “These are the two anointed ones, that stand by the Lord of the whole earth” (Zech 4:14). Notice it said “anointed ones,” that is, more than one anointed being. Now the scripture said, “Holy One” in reference to God (Isa 60:14, Jer 50:29, Eze 39:7, Hosea 11:9, Hab1:12, Mark 1:24), telling us that there is one being to which the angels cry holy to, not three. If they were three, the scriptures would have said “Holy Ones.” In fact according to T.R the bible says Holy One 48 times and no allusion to Holy Three or Holy Ones or any multiple of Gods. Again, to show the usage of the language, take Jeremiah 22:29; "O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the LORD." Does this means they are three earths? Of course not. Why then should God be three when someone says "Holy, Holy, Holy" in praise. Throw out the idea, its ludicrous.

Answer Notes: 1. Though one can say "earth, earth, earth" means crust, mantle and core or world under the earth, above the earth and in the sky, THE CONTEXT SHOWS NO SUCH MEANINGS! Throw it out!.
