Jesus Christ
Easton's Concordance: Anointed, the Greek
translation of the Hebrew word rendered "Messiah" (q.v.), the official title of
our Lord, occurring five hundred and fourteen times in the New Testament. It denotes that
he was anointed or consecrated to his great redemptive work as Prophet, Priest, and King
of his people. He is Jesus the Christ (Acts 17:3; 18:5; Matt. 22:42), the Anointed One. He
is thus spoken of by Isaiah (61:1), and by Daniel (9:24-26), who styles him "Messiah
the Prince." The Messiah is the same person as "the seed of the woman"
(Gen. 3:15), "the seed of Abraham" (Gen. 22:18), the "Prophet like unto
Moses" (Deut. 18:15), "the priest after the order of Melchizedek" (Ps.
110:4), "the rod out of the stem of Jesse" (Isa. 11:1, 10), the
"Immanuel," the virgin's son (Isa. 7:14), "the branch of Jehovah"
(Isa. 4:2), and "the messenger of the covenant" (Mal. 3:1). This is he "of
whom Moses in the law and the prophets did write." The Old Testament Scripture is
full of prophetic declarations regarding the Great Deliverer and the work he was to
accomplish. Jesus the Christ is Jesus the Great Deliverer, the Anointed One, the Saviour
of men. This name denotes that Jesus was divinely appointed, commissioned, and accredited
as the Saviour of men (Heb. 5:4; Isa. 11:2-4; 49:6; John 5:37; Acts 2:22). To believe that
"Jesus is the Christ" is to believe that he is the Anointed, the Messiah of the
prophets, the Saviour sent of God, that he was, in a word, what he claimed to be. This is
to believe the gospel, by the faith of which alone men can be brought unto God. That Jesus
is the Christ is the testimony of God, and the faith of this constitutes a Christian (1
Cor. 12:3; 1 John 5:1).

The Holy Spirit
Easton's Concordance: The third Person of
the adorable Trinity. His personality is proved (1) from the fact that the attributes of
personality, as intelligence and volition, are ascribed to him (John 14:17, 26; 15:26; 1
Cor. 2:10, 11; 12:11). He reproves, helps, glorifies, intercedes (John 16:7-13; Rom.
8:26). (2) He executes the offices peculiar only to a person. The very nature of these
offices involves personal distinction (Luke 12:12; Acts 5:32; 15:28; 16:6; 28:25; 1 Cor.
2:13; Heb. 2:4; 3:7; 2 Pet. 1:21). His divinity is established (1) from the fact that the
names of God are ascribed to him (Ex. 17:7; Ps. 95:7; comp. Heb. 3:7-11); and (2) that
divine attributes are also ascribed to him, omnipresence (Ps. 139:7; Eph. 2:17, 18; 1 Cor.
12:13); omniscience (1 Cor. 2:10, 11); omnipotence (Luke 1:35; Rom. 8:11); eternity (Heb.
9:4). (3) Creation is ascribed to him (Gen. 1:2; Job 26:13; Ps. 104:30), and the working
of miracles (Matt. 12:28; 1 Cor. 12:9-11). (4) Worship is required and ascribed to him
(Isa. 6:3; Acts 28:25; Rom. 9:1; Rev. 1:4; Matt. 28:19).
God the
Father
Easton's Concordance: (A.S. and Dutch God;
Dan. Gud; Ger. Gott), the name of the Divine Being. It is the rendering (1) of the Hebrew
'El, from a word meaning to be strong; (2) of 'Eloah_, plural _'Elohim. The singular form,
Eloah, is used only in poetry. The plural form is more commonly used in all parts of the
Bible, The Hebrew word Jehovah (q.v.), the only other word generally employed to denote
the Supreme Being, is uniformly rendered in the Authorized Version by "LORD,"
printed in small capitals. The existence of God is taken for granted in the Bible. There
is nowhere any argument to prove it. He who disbelieves this truth is spoken of as one
devoid of understanding (Ps. 14:1). The arguments generally adduced by theologians in
proof of the being of God are: (1.) The a priori argument, which is the testimony afforded
by reason. (2.) The a posteriori argument, by which we proceed logically from the facts of
experience to causes. These arguments are, (a) The cosmological, by which it is proved
that there must be a First Cause of all things, for every effect must have a cause. (b)
The teleological, or the argument from design. We see everywhere the operations of an
intelligent Cause in nature. (c) The moral argument, called also the anthropological
argument, based on the moral consciousness and the history of mankind, which exhibits a
moral order and purpose which can only be explained on the supposition of the existence of
God. Conscience and human history testify that "verily there is a God that judgeth in
the earth." The attributes of God are set forth in order by Moses in Ex. 34:6,7. (see
also Deut. 6:4; 10:17; Num. 16:22; Ex. 15:11; 33:19; Isa. 44:6; Hab. 3:6; Ps. 102:26; Job
34:12.) They are also systematically classified in Rev. 5:12 and 7:12. God's attributes
are spoken of by some as absolute, i.e., such as belong to his essence as Jehovah, Jah,
etc.; and relative, i.e., such as are ascribed to him with relation to his creatures.
Others distinguish them into communicable, i.e., those which can be imparted in degree to
his creatures: goodness, holiness, wisdom, etc.; and incommunicable, which cannot be so
imparted: independence, immutability, immensity, and eternity. They are by some also
divided into natural attributes, eternity, immensity, etc.; and moral, holiness, goodness,
etc.
