July 9, 2025 - Rev. Dr. Steve A. Wright, Sr - The Doctrine of the Trinity - 1 John 5:7

Introduction

Never was there any record so well attested, so worthy of acceptance, so necessary to be believed, as to that which God has given of his Son. Upon receiving or rejecting of it depends on the eternal welfare of all of mankind. The riches of wisdom, love, and mercy that are contained in it surpass all the comprehension of men or of angels.  

With respect to the truth of it, every species of testimonies that could be given by friends or enemies, by angels from heaven, or by men on earth, yes, even the devils themselves, have been given in the most abundant degree. But it has also been confirmed by other testimony, still even by the three persons in the adorable Trinity that we're going to talk about this evening from the words before us 1 John 5:7; “ There are three that bear record in heaven, The Father, the Word(Son), and the Holy Ghost; and these three are one”

 

We should take a look at:

• Who they are that are said to bear record

• What that is concerning which they bear record

• In what manner they bear record
