1 Kings 1 | Exposing The False Trinity Doctrine

The King James Version (KJV) is mostly used in these lessons. Click here to access the KJV online.

You are great, O Yahuwah G-d for there is none like You, and there is no G-d besides You.

Proof of the Trinity Error At 1 Kings, Chapter 1

David is profusely identified as the Lord of Israel. This is highly significant due to a claim made by Trinitarians concerning 1 Corinthians 8:6 and Deuteronomy 6:4 (the Shema).

It is claimed that 1 Corinthians 8:6 states there is only one Lord (kyrios) for the people of Yahuwah and that means that Lord is the necessarily the same Lord (kyrios) that is mentioned at Deuteronomy 6:4, "the Lord [Yahuwah] our G-d, the Lord [Yahuwah] is one."

However, the fact that David is the Lord (kyrios) of Israel demonstrates this claim is plainly false. For Israel, their one G-d [Yahuwah] was Lord while David was also their Lord (two Lords not one). David was not Yahuwah and in the same way, Yahushua is not the one G-d [Yahuwah] mentioned at 1 Corinthians 8:6.

The Evidence At 1 Kings chapter 1 = David is identified as Israel's Lord

1 Now King David was old, advanced in age; and they covered him with clothes, but he could not keep warm. 2 So his servants said to him, “Let them seek a young virgin for my Lord the King, and let her attend the King and become his nurse; and let her lie in your bosom, that my Lord the King may keep warm.... 11 Then Nathan spoke to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, “Have you not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith has become King, and David our Lord does not know.... 13 Go at once to King David and say to him, ‘Have you not, my Lord, the King, sworn to your maidservant, saying, “Surely Solomon your son shall be King after me....

King David is profusely called "my Lord." He is also called "your Lord" and "our Lord." Notice that when the G-d of Israel [Yahuwah] is in view, the word "Lord" is all capitalized (LORD). This is based on a distinction in the Hebrew text. However, the Trinitarian claim is based on the Greek word kyrios (Lord) at 1 Corinthians 8:6 and this is also what David is called in the Greek translation of 1 Kings 1.

1 Corinthians 8:6 and Deuteronomy 6:4

For us there is one G-d, the Father, out of whom are all things and we for Him, and one Lord, Yahushua Christ, through whom are all things and we through him. (1 Corinthians 8:6)

The one Lord (kyrios) of 1 Corinthians 8:6 is identified as Yahushua Christ. Although Paul's point is that we have both one G-d [Yahuwah] and one Lord for a total of two, Trinitarians attempt to claim Paul is actually saying there is only one Lord in existence and that necessarily means Paul is referring to the Lord G-d [Yahuwah]. By implication they are arguing that the words "one G-d" and "one Lord" are referring to the same entity and Paul could have said, "there is one Lord, the Father.... and one G-d, Yahushua Christ." Essentially, what they want the text to say is "there is one Lord G-d [Yahuwah], the Father.... and Yahushua Christ." But it doesn't so they are attempting to spin an interpretation that somehow would amount to such an idea. The word "Lord" in this verse is the Greek word kyrios. So Trinitarians claim that Paul is essentially referring to the Shema (Deut 6:4), "the Lord [Yahuwah] our G-d, the Lord [Yahuwah] is one," that is, "the kyrios our G-d, the kyrios is one." They need to appeal to the Greek text of Deuteronomy 6:4 since they want to associate the Greek word kyrios with Lord of Deuteronomy 6:4. The attempt here by Trinitarians is to claim that Yahushua too is the one G-d [Yahuwah] as well as the Father by claiming there is only one Lord for the people of G-d [Yahuwah]. Now we shall see how 1 Kings 1 demonstrates that their claim is obviously false.

The Greek Translation of 1 Kings 1

The Trinitarian claim concerning 1 Corinthians 8:6 rests on the Greek word "kyrios/kurios" (English: Lord) and a comparison to the Greek translation of the Shema (Deut 6:4) which also used the word "kyrios." In Hebrew, the Jews used the word "Adonai" to refer to G-d instead of uttering his divine name YHVH [Yahuwah]. Adonai ("Lord") is not a translation of YHVH but a substitution word used in place of YHVH to avoid using the divine name. Humans were called Adon ("Lord") or Adoni ("my Lord"). So a distinction between G-d [Yahuwah] and men can be seen when using Hebrew terms for "Lord."

However, in a Greek translation the words do not exist in the Greek language to make such a distinction. Both YHVH and a human Lord are called Kyrios which is equivalent to the English word "Lord."

English also cannot make a distinction as Hebrew does.

YHVH is Kyrios and humans may be called Kyrios. YHVH is Lord and humans may be called Lord. There are several examples of people called "Lord" (kyrios) in the Scriptures.

1 Corinthians 8:6, Deuteronomy 6:4 and 1 Kings 1

In the Greek translation of the Old Testament, this is what happens:

Now King David was old, advanced in age; and they covered him with clothes, but he could not keep warm. 2 So his servants said to him, “Let them seek a young virgin for my KURIOS the King, and let her attend the King and become his nurse; and let her lie in your bosom, that my KURIOS the King may keep warm.... 11 Then Nathan spoke to Bathsheba the mother of Solomon, saying, “Have you not heard that Adonijah the son of Haggith has become King, and David our KURIOS does not know.... 13 Go at once to King David and say to him, ‘Have you not, my KURIOS, the King, sworn to your maidservant, saying, “Surely Solomon your son shall be King after me.... 17 [Bathsheba] said to him, “My KURIOS, you swore to your maidservant by the KURIOS your G-d, saying, ‘Surely your son Solomon shall be King after me and he shall sit on my throne.’

[BREAK]

But David was not G-d [Yahuwah], demonstrating their argument is a farce.

There were two Lords in view: Israel's Lord King David and David's Lord, the G-d of Israel. The same situation exists for Christians today. We have the Lord Yahushua and we have his Lord, G-d [Yahuwah] the Father.

This is illustrated by the words, "My Lord said to my Lord, 'Sit at My right hand...'" Acts 2:30-36.

This hardly means "G-d [Yahuwah] said to my G-d [Yahuwah], 'Sit at my right hand'" especially in view of the fact that Peter says G-d [Yahuwah] made Yahushua "Lord" when He raised him from the dead in this same passage. It is absurd to suggest G-d [Yahuwah] made him G-d [Yahuwah].

Conclusion:

In the Scriptures, the people of Yahuwah recognize two Lords: the Lord G-d [Yahuwah] , and His Christ which is now the Lord Yahushua. That is also why the Scriptures tell us explicitly that the Father is the G-d of the Lord Yahushua. The one G-d mentioned at 1 Corinthians 8:6 is the G-d of the one Lord mentioned at 1 Corinthians 8:6.

And the same scenario was true in the days of King David. There was one G-d, Yahuwah, and one Lord, King David. Same thing. And indeed, the Scriptures say that David was Yahuwah's Anointed One, Christ, who sat on the throne of Yahuwah ruling over the Kingdom of Yahuwah (1 Chronicles 28:5; 29:20,23). Now, the promised son of David is that Lord over the people of Yahuwah and that one Lord is Yahushua Christ.

Believers have one G-d [Yahuwah] and they also have one Lord through whom Yahuwah rules and judges just as He did through King David over the people of Israel. It is an error to read 1 Corinthians 8:6 as if we are to believe there is only one Lord in existence and that one Lord is equivalent to the one G-d [Yahuwah].

Given the above facts concerning Yahuwah and Israel's Lord King David, this is an impossibility.

Paul is clearly telling us that "for us" (believers), there is one G-d [Yahuwah], and in addition to the one G-d [Yahuwah], we have one Lord, Yahushua.

His point is that we have one G-d in contrast to many gods, and we also have one Lord in contrast to many Lords (v. 8:4).

This amounts to two entities, not one as Trinitarians are attempting to spin the verse for the sake of their doctrine.

For the people of Yahuwah, there is one G-d and in addition to the one G-d, there is one Lord, the one G-d's Christ.

Just as Lord David was not the one G-d [Yahuwah] in 1 Kings 1, the Lord Yahushua is not the one G-d [Yahuwah] in 1 Cor. 8..

Our Lord Yahushua is one; his G-d [Yahuwah] is another.

The Lord of 1 Corinthians 8:6 is not the one G-d; the one G-d [Yahuwah] is this Lord's G-d.

The one G-d [Yahuwah] of 1 Corinthians 8:6 is the G-d of the one Lord Yahushua of 1 Corinthians 8:6.

“Amen!

Thus may the Lord/Kyrios, the G-d of the Lord/Kyrios the King... 1 Kings 1:36

The G-d of our Lord/Kyrios Yahushua Christ, the Father [Yahuwah] of glory. Ephesians 1:7
