Will we see the Trinity in heaven

[brinny]

I don't think we will "see" even that with our physical eyes. I don't think there is a way to physically "see" that which is incorporeal and bodiless in any way.

We will see at least what Adam saw as he walked in a garden with the living God.

We are admonished to SEEK God's face.

We see through a glass darkly now.

In heaven we will see clearly, no obstacles.

We will see GOD'S FACE.

 

[brinny]

Many places in the Old Testament exhort us to seek God's face, and 1 Cor 13 tells us that, in the next life, we'll see Him "face to face". To "see" God is to know Him, directly and fully, and that knowledge is a gift, impossible to obtain on our own due to His infinite superiority. And that "vision" happens to cause sheer unbridled enthrallment in the beholder.

Many places in the Old Testament exhort us to seek God's face, and 1 Cor 13 tells us that, in the next life, we'll see Him "face to face".

Amen.

Will we see the Trinity in heaven or only jesus?

If by "heaven" you mean the intermediate state between death and resurrection, I don't know what "see" means in any meaningful sense at all in that context.

If by "heaven" you are referring to the future resurrection of the body and the life of the Age to Come, I'd answer I don't know. But I would offer a couple of points worth thinking about:

1) Jesus is a human being, He is visible, solid, physical, human flesh and bone. So seeing Him makes sense in that context.

2) Scripture speaks of God, in His Essence, as invisible, unseen, etc. As such the idea of seeing God still probably doesn't make much sense. I have no idea what it means to therefore speak of "seeing" the Father or "seeing" the Holy Spirit.

As such I can conceive of seeing Jesus, because Jesus is physical, visible, solid because He's a human being with real, solid, human flesh. I don't know what it would mean to see the Father or the Holy Spirit, however.

I suppose perhaps I'm treating your question too literally. Will we, in the that future time, experience all three Persons? The answer is yes.

Stephen's experience was described visually.

Thirty years ago, my wife and I were both involved in an encounter with a demon. The Holy Spirit provided each of us with separate and different discernments of that demon. The discernment given to me was visual, but the discernment given to her was aural.

Same demon, but we would describe it differently according to the different discernments given to us. I'd have to describe what I saw, she would have to describe what she heard.

But in fact, the demon had neither a physical form nor a physical sound. My eyes did not receive actual physical light rays, her ears did not receive actual physical sound waves.

And Stephen's eyes did not receive actual light rays reflecting from a physical heaven. He discerned as "sight" a vision given to him by the Holy Spirit.

I didn't claim that what Stephen saw was the pure physical yet he still saw something which steps beyond the pure metaphor and enters a more concrete concept.

You and your wife's experiences were revealed to you by the HS and they are truth, Stephens experiences were also revealed by the HS and what he saw was also truth.

So what we know is that Jesus is at the right hand of the Father and it is not wrong that this may be visualized in a concrete way.

We see through a glass darkly now.
In heaven we will see clearly, no obstacles.
We will see GOD'S FACE

If you're a cessationist you already see clearly

Also Your friend made me even more confused by that verse,
the verse says Jesus would be sitting at right hand of God. if He is God how is he sitting in his own right hand?

Have you ever heard of the HOLY TRINITY?

If you have seen Jesus, you have seen the Father.

Yes the trinity is in heaven. God the word and the spirit are one.

 

[Ripheus27]

That doesn't answer any thing. Either the bible is unclear or you are unclear.
Why doesn't the Holy Spirit Know when judgement day is?
We both Agree that God knows Every thing. But According to the bible the Holy spirit doesn't know when Judgement day is.

Another part of the New Testament says that God knows things by His Spirit, so if God is just the Father, He still knows when Judgment Day is by the Holy Spirit. Anyway I suppose the idea is more that we don't know what kind of "knowledge" Jesus is referring to. It could be that there is an awareness of the Day, on the part of all three divine Persons, but there is some extra "will" to the Father's awareness of it, so that He is the "only" one Who internally knows the hour of the Day, or whatever.

I believe God is all three.

"At the right hand" was a metaphor that meant "agent of execution."

To be at a sovereign's right hand meant you were the person who executed the sovereign's decisions.

I only do what I see the Father doing

The Son is the Agent of execution--which is what Stephen was saying that Jesus is. Of God, the Son is the Agent of execution--which was news for the Sanhedrin.

That is also true. And execute righteous judgment is what He is about to do --- soon!

 

[Ripheus27]

To the OP: I believe that we will have a new abstract and non-abstract knowledge of the Trinity, in the end, but this will not be as if we are looking in a specific direction and see a specifically-shaped entity in that direction. Instead our entire form of consciousness will be raised up, and in every direction that we look, we will have the fullness of God tangible to us. The best guess I have is that it will be like when we see the hand of God in specific things, only then we'll perceive everything's interconnectedness at once.

Have you ever heard of the HOLY TRINITY?

Based on a couple other posts by the OP, I suspect that they are confusing the doctrine of the Trinity with Sabellianism.

If you can see the trinity, you'll see them in one container, as as one in Jesus, is what I think anyway... He will be the light and the light source and they are light, so...

God Bless!

 

[Neogaia777]

The Father is omniscient.

This distinction is one of the reasons why the early Christians realize that the Godhead is of three persons--because there is given distinctions between them in scripture.

Yes exactly, it was this that truly brought me to the trinity, and made me kind of begin to understand it correctly for the first time...

God Bless!

Matthew 24:36 New King James Version (NKJV)
No One Knows the Day or Hour not even the angels of heaven but My Father only.

How come the Holy spirit has NO Idea when judgement day is. Thats pretty awkard I thought God knows every thing , its confusing verse if we assume the holy spirit is God :/

The Father is supreme in authority and thus can know thing the their persons of God don’t know.

 

[Barney2.0]

Since we will see God in heaven, it means we will see every person of the Trinity.
