Welcome to the Rapid Bull, daily edition, where we provide a quick biblical interpretations and applications.
This is a ministry of striving for eternity. Sometimes a question that comes up from people is,
Do you have to believe in the Trinity to be saved? This is a tricky question because the fact is that you don't have to actually believe in all of the essentials of the
Trinity to be saved. I did not. I did not know anything about the Trinity when I became a Christian.
It wasn't until six years later that I learned the doctrine of the Trinity. However, what you do have to believe is that Jesus Christ is
God. That you do have to believe to be saved. Do you understand everything of the
Trinity? No. I did not understand the Trinity when I became a believer, but I did know that Jesus Christ was
God. How could He be dying on the cross and still controlling all things in the universe? Well, He's God.
I didn't understand it. But I knew that God was greater than my ability to understand. So, I don't believe that someone has to believe in the
Trinity to be saved. However, if someone understands the doctrine of the Trinity, understands what it teaches, that Jesus is
God, and denies that, then I have a very hard time believing that they could be saved.
Because they understand the truth, they understand the doctrine of the Trinity, and deny it, they're essentially denying that Jesus Christ is
God. And to deny that Jesus is God is to be outside the realm of salvation.
We must believe that Jesus Christ is God to be saved. This podcast is part of the
