Does Mark 12:36 support the Trinity Doctrine?
David himself, speaking by the Holy Spirit, declared: “`The Lord said to my Lord: “Sit at my right hand until I put your enemies under your feet.”No-one of course would say that this scripture teaches the Trinity unless they were biased toward Trinity thinking in the first place. What it is really being said is the Lord (Father) said to my Lord (Jesus). Sit at my right hand until…..
The reference My Lord and the Lord shows us that there is rank. e.g., if I were a slave and the Lord spoke to my Master, then it would be correct to say The Lord said to my Lord. Remember that true believers are slaves to Christ so when the Father speaks to the Son, we can relay that information by saying The Lord said to my Lord. That is if Jesus is indeed your Lord. In fact this scripture shows us that David was truly inspired by the Holy Spirit when he wrote this because the fact that The Father has a Son was not common knowledge in the Old Testament and to say those words shows inspiration and possibly a clear understanding of this fact.
Acts 2:34-36
34 For David did not ascend to heaven, and yet he said,
“‘The Lord said to my Lord:
“Sit at my right hand
35 until I make your enemies a footstool for your feet.”’
36 “Therefore let all Israel be assured of this: God has made this Jesus, whom you crucified, both Lord and Messiah.”This scripture is very similar to 1 Corinthians 15:24-28 and this scripture is interesting in that it blatantly demonstrates that Jesus is not God, but that Jesus and God are two.
24 Then the end will come, when he hands over the kingdom to God the Father after he has destroyed all dominion, authority and power.
25 For he must reign until he has put all his enemies under his feet.
26 The last enemy to be destroyed is death.
27 For he has put everything under his feet. Now when it says that everything has been put under him, it is clear that this does not include God himself, who put everything under Christ.
28 When he has done this, then the Son himself will be made subject to him who put everything under him, so that God may be all in all.← Go back to ‘Supporting the Trinity Doctrine‘.
