True Christianity: The Portable New Century Edition, Volume 1

(singke) #1

In response the clergy sitting in the chairs said, “This is divine truth!”
[ 12 ] At the end the participants produced the following declaration:
“From the discussions in this council, we have come to see clearly and to
acknowledge as the sacred truth that the divine Trinity exists in the Lord
God the Savior Jesus Christ. The Trinity is made up of the divine nature
as an origin called ‘the Father,’ the divine-human manifestation called
‘the Son,’ and the emanating divine influence called ‘the Holy Spirit.’ We
proclaim then that ‘all the fullness of divinity dwells physically in Christ’
(Colossians 2 : 9 ). Therefore there is one God in the church.”
[ 13 ] After the events of this magnificent council came to an end, the
participants stood up. The angel guarding the cabinet came over and
brought shining clothing to each one of those who had been sitting in the
chairs. The clothing was interwoven here and there with golden threads.
The angel said, “Please accept these wedding garments.”
The participants were led in glory to the new Christian heaven,
which is going to be connected to the church of the Lord on earth, which
is the New Jerusalem.
