Les Feldick Bible Study

Where in the Bible are all three persons of the Trinity mentioned in a single verse?

The apostle Paul mentions all three persons of the Trinity in a single verse in II Corinthians, verse 14. He writes of the communion of the Holy Spirit, and the context shows the Father and the Son are also present, presenting the three persons of the Godhead together.

Les explains that in II Corinthians, verse 14, Paul, under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, reverses the usual order of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. He quotes the verse: 'Now let the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all.' Les emphasizes that all three persons are right there in one verse. He also ties this to Christ's baptism, where God the Father spoke and the Holy Spirit descended, showing the manifestations of the three persons of the Godhead.

2 Corinthians 13:14

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.
