Why does Hebrews explain the Nature of Christ differently than how the Trinitarian belief has been portrayed?

Answer 1

The nature of Jesus as described in Hebrews is always as the son of God! Greater than angels in position and power, but lesser than the Almighty God Jehovah!Hebrews 1: AMPLIFIED BIBLE

3He is the sole expression of the glory of God [the Light-being, the [c]out-raying or radiance of the divine], and He is the perfect imprint and very image of [God's] nature, upholding and maintaining and guiding and propelling the universe by His mighty word of power. When He had by offering Himself accomplished our cleansing of sins and riddance of guilt, He sat down at the right hand of the divine Majesty on high,

[Taking a place and rank by which] He Himself became as much superior to angels as the glorious Name (title) which He has inherited is different from and more excellent than theirs.

5For to which of the angels did [God] ever say, You are My Son, today I have begotten You [established You in an official Sonship relation, with kingly dignity]? And again, I will be to Him a Father, and He will be to Me a Son? [II Sam. 7:14; Ps. 2:7.] Jehovah gave Christ a nature of which the angels will never attain and that is of "incorruption" & "immortality" of which 1 Cor. 15 states:1 Cor. 15: AMPLIFIED BIBLE

45Thus it is written, The first man Adam became a living being (an individual personality); the last Adam (Christ) became a life-giving Spirit [restoring the dead to life].(A) 46But it is not the spiritual life which came first, but the physical and then the spiritual. 47The first man [was] from out of earth, made of dust (earthly-minded); the second Man [is] the Lord from out of heaven.(B)

....50But I tell you this, brethren, flesh and blood cannot [become partakers of eternal salvation and] inherit or share in the kingdom of God; nor does the perishable (that which is decaying) inherit or share in the imperishable (the immortal). 51Take notice! I tell you a mystery (a secret truth, an event decreed by the hidden purpose or counsel of God). We shall not all fall asleep [in death], but we shall all be changed (transformed) 52In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the [sound of the] last trumpet call. For a trumpet will sound, and the dead [in Christ] will be raised imperishable (free and immune from decay), and we shall be changed (transformed).

53For this perishable [part of us] must put on the imperishable [nature], and this mortal [part of us, this nature that is capable of dying] must put on immortality (freedom from death).

--OF GREAT interest is it should be noted that Christ is the very 1st to be given incorruption and immortality as he was raised a spirit ---THEN THE "little flock" of Luke 12:32 are granted the same in due time , BUT the nature similar to that of Jehovah God , does not in any way give Christ & others the position to be worshipped

Answer

if you will examine Jesus's teachings in the four books Matt.,mk,lk,&jn you will see that the god he taught us about was not a trinity. where does he ever refer to god the holy spirit? John chapter 15 and 17. GO read The Bible. The holy spirit is everywhere Acts 2, Matt 3 and so on. Better use the KJV, its the purist. Nowhere in the entire bible will you find the word "Trinity" the teaching was invented in the 4th century, and is completely unscriptural.

Moses reminded the Israelites that ?Jehovah our God is one Jehovah.? (Deuteronomy 6:4) Jesus Christ repeated those words. (Mark 12:28,?29) Therefore, those who accept the Bible as God?s Word do not worship a Trinity consisting of three gods in one.The true God is one Person, separate from Jesus Christ. (John 14:28; 1?Corinthians 15:28) God?s holy spirit is not a person. It is Jehovah?s active force, used by the Almighty to accomplish his purposes.?Genesis 1:2; Acts 2:1-4, 32, 33; 2?Peter 1:20,?21. According to Jesus himself, he is not god. So Trinity is bunked.

Matthew 19:17, Mark 10:18 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.

Matthew 27:46, Mark 15:34 My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?

Mark 16:19 So then after the Lord had spoken unto them, he was received up into heaven, and sat on the right hand of God.

John 8:40 But now ye seek to kill me, a man that hath told you the truth, which I have heard of God.

John 14:28 My Father is greater than I.

John 20:17 I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God.

Acts 17:31 Because he hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by that man whom he hath ordained; whereof he hath given assurance unto all men, in that he hath raised him from the dead.

1 Corinthians 11:3 The head of Christ is God.

1 Corinthians 15:28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all.

Colossians 3:1 Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus

Answer also: The word "Trinity" does not appear in the Bible. The Holy Scriptures tell us the personal name of the Father-Jehovah. Consider John 1:18 "No man has seen (Almighty) God at any time. The Word (Jesus) was made flesh, and dwelt among us, and we behold his glory. (John 1:14." ) How then, could the Son be part of Almighty God? John also states that the Word was "with" God" But how can an individual be with someone and at the same time be that person? At John 17:3, Jesus makes a clear distinction between himself and his heavenly Father. He calls his Father "the only true God." And toward the end of his Gospel, John sums up matters by saying: "These have been written down so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God." (John 20:31) Notice that Jesus is called, not God, but the Son of God. This additional information shows how John 1:1 should be understood. Jesus, the Word, is "a god" in the sense that he has a high position but is not the same as Almighty God. If you are not sure what the Bible writer John was really saying about the relationship between Jesus and Almighty God, you could turn to another Bible writer for information. Consider Matthew, regarding the end of this system of things, he quotes Jesus as saying: " Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father." Jesus says that the Father knows more than the Son does. If Jesus were part of Almighty God, however, he would know the same facts as his Father. So then, the Son and the Father cannot be equal. Also consider Psalms 90:2, Acts 7:55 and Colossians 1:15, they confirm the truth about the Father, the Son and the holy spirit.

Answer 2

Put simply, the concept of the Holy Trinity had not yet been considered in the first century. A primitive trinitarian concept arose in the late second century, but it did not begin to be widely supported until the third century. It was finally accepted as dogma during the course of the fourth century, against strong Arian opposition. So Hebrews was written in a vacuum as far as trinitarian belief was concerned.

The Book of Hebrew portrays Jesus as a heavenly High Priest, saying that "if he were on earth, he should not be a priest" (Hebrews 8:1-4). This could scarcely be different from the trinitarian belief, or any other modern form of Christianity. Hebrews reflects the diversity of Christian thought in the first century and was not the only book to differ from what became mainstream Christianity, but for some reason it was accepted into the New Testament canon while many other books were excluded. Perhaps by the time books were being considered for inclusion, it was not considered possible that any Christian book would suggest that Jesus had not come to earth.
