About This Video
In this episode of I Don’t Get the BibleA TGNN series that answers honest Bible questions—without fear or religious pressure., Shawn and Delaney begin their study through 1 Thessalonians—but only make it one verse in before diving deep into the nature of God, the Trinity, and Jesus’ identity. Delaney expresses feeling unsteady now that she’s gained enough of a foundation to realize how much more there is to unpack. Their discussion explores how the traditional doctrine of the Trinity doesn’t align with Paul’s consistent greetings—always naming “God the Father” and “the Lord Jesus Christ,” but never the Spirit as a distinct person.
They unpack what it means that the Word of God became flesh, how Jesus can be called God after his resurrection, and whether believers become like God or joint heirs with Christ in some sense. Along the way, they examine how Mormon theology overlaps and departs from fulfilled Christian views, especially regarding Jesus as our “brother.” The episode ends with an honest look at biblical interpretation, spiritual inheritance, and the possibility that modern believers may be more like grandchildren of God than direct children—humbly reflecting on the distinctions made for the original bride of Christ.
