Many Christians struggle to find clear evidence of the Trinity in the Old Testament, often conceding this ground when dialoguing with Jewish or Muslim friends. But what if Christ was hiding in plain sight throughout the Hebrew Scriptures?
In this revelatory discussion, Sam Shamoon takes us on a journey through biblical passages that the early Church Fathers unanimously understood as revealing the Trinity. From Jeremiah's encounter with "the Word of the Lord" who physically touched his mouth, to Abraham's meeting with the divine visitor who claimed to be "the Lord," we discover compelling evidence that Christ was actively revealing Himself thousands of years before Bethlehem.
The implications are profound. When Jesus said, "Abraham saw my day and was glad," He wasn't speaking metaphorically—Abraham literally encountered the pre-incarnate Christ. This understanding transforms how we read Scripture and provides powerful tools for defending the Trinity using the Old Testament alone.
We explore how and why many modern theologians have abandoned these interpretations in favor of readings that align more with rabbinical Judaism, and how this shift impacts interfaith dialogue today. Looking at Genesis 1:26 ("Let us make man in our image"), Genesis 19:24 (which distinguishes between the Lord on earth and the Lord in heaven), and several other key passages, Sam builds a compelling case that the Trinity was never a "new revelation" but has been God's self-disclosure from the beginning.
Whether you're seeking to strengthen your faith, looking for new apologetic approaches, or simply love diving deep into Scripture, this conversation will transform how you read the Bible. Discover the Christ who walked with Adam, spoke to Abraham, and touched the prophets—the eternal Word who has been revealing the Father since creation began.
