The Three Branches of God

GOD [Holy Spirit]

The LAW                                                                                                                                                                                                                         JESUS

The three branches of God is not unlike our system of government:  the executive branch (president), the legislative branch (the law), and the judicial branch (making sure the law does not abuse its power).  When we falsely think of the trinity as God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit we miss a crucial part of the system–the real trinity–which is God’s Holy Spirit [or rhema the Living Word of God], the Law from the Prophets, and Jesus’ message of God’s Love and grace.

Currently, it is popular in modern Christianity to ignore the Law, which makes it impossible to be obedient to God.  It takes more than the New Testament, Jesus, or the concept of the three-in-one trinity to keep us in God’s good graces.  It takes obedience, love, and faith.  Obedience comes in the Law of God, laid out in the Old Testament Torah, and to a lesser degree, the major Prophets.  Jesus brings us the love [and with it, grace] of God and enables us to see the forest, not just the trees.  And faith comes from knowing our God, and having His Holy Spirit move through us.  All these are necessary for Truth!  We cannot find God’s Truth by simply having one or even two facets of this, which is what we have when we adhere to the false concept of the traditional trinity as laid out by the Council of Nicaea.

The very reason the US government is set up like this is to keep the branches in balance.  Law without Love is what we had with the Pharisees and Sadducees.  The Holy Spirit without the Law or Jesus can leave us seeking God, yet sinful.  And Jesus’ Love without the Law can lead us into a false sense of security, and to act out of false doctrines.

We need all three facets of God’s Truth to be holy and pure.
