Who raised Jesus from the dead?

Who raised Jesus from the dead? I have heard it taught that God the Father, God the Son & God the Holy Spirit all raised Jesus from the dead, is this true? If so can someone please point me to the scriptures, if you have a different take please post away, I would like to get the correct answer on this.
 
John 2:19-21 Yashuah answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

1 Corinthians 15:44 It is sown a natural body; it is raised a spiritual body.

What we sow in a natural body will determine if we raise it up in a spiritual body. Yashuah was confident of what He sowed in His natural body that He could make that claim in John 2:9 that He will be able to raise it up, which is His spiritual body. But who actually does this “raising up�

Galatians 1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Yashuah Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)

God does the raising.

Romans 8:11 But if the Spirit of him who raised up Yashuah from the dead dwells in you, he who raised up Christ Yashuah from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through his Spirit who dwells in you.

Is this Spirit that raised up Yashuah again different from God the Father? ..Not. Yashuah plainly stated that God is a spirit and those who worship Him should worship Him in the spirit and in truth.

So we can see it is God who raised Yashuah from the dead and not some three personified being.
 
TanNinety what you just stated is an oxymoron. In John 2:19 Jesus (Yeshua) said "Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up."

Galatians 1:1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;

Those two verses make it impossible for there not to be a trinity. Or at least a ummm what would be the word... Doublty? :P

BTW are you Jewish? I'm very new to this forum. :)

The word you are looking for is Binitarian. 8-)
 
Alannah, May be an example would clarify things.

If a football coach said, "I will win this match tonight", and His team does really well and they bring the victory home. Does it mean the football coach was wrong in saying "I" will win this match even though his team players are the ones actually playing out on the field?

Yashuah, could make a similar claim ..where as it was God who actually resurrected Him.

And welcome to the board. Enjoy your stay. I am not jewish, just a follower of Yashuah as much as I can in the truth that He reveals to me.
 
Although I do not agree with what you believe, what you said does clarify where you are coming from. :)

P.s. Why do you spell Yeshua as Yashuah?

This is about where I stand on the topic also. As I said it was told to me that all three persons of the God head raised Jesus "body" from the dead (remembering that Jesus is God & when his phisical body died He did not "die" but went to face satan). The Holy Spirit also raised Jesus from the dead from my reading of the scriptures.
 
I agree, who was God talking about anyway in Genesis when He said "and let us make man in our image" If the trinity is not really there? Another thing is that God is probably in a totally different dimension than we are. They say there is 3 (?) known dimensions, but I fully believe that there is another dimension, that God is in, a dimension in which time, and space don't really exist, for God anyways. Perhaps when there is a new heaven and a new earth we will also be in this demsion.

Could not agree with you more. This is exactly what I believe. If a thousand years are like a day to God & He can see the future then He must be free from the demension of time. He is definately in a different dimension, which makes sense being as He created this dimension for us, with time matter enegy etc.

Well it is the closest I could get it to YAHU'SHUAH.

As for the let "us" make text that you are talking about in Genesis, there were angels present around Him, when God laid the foundations of the world and made man. Do you deny any possibility of God speaking with His holy angels when He said "us"?

Also it might be hard to understand in english, but in a lot of languages to denote authority or honor this kind of plurality is added to the person being addressed. For example if a king had to write you a letter that he is coming to your wedding he would say "we will grace you with our prescence at your wedding". Even though he is talking about himself (singular) coming it would be addressed in plurality to get the message across of his highness.

Have you ever consider these or did you by yourself come to this conclusion of trintiy without someone teaching this preconceived idea to you? :)
 
The Trinity has always been taught to me. But I don't always believe in everything I am taught. I believe in something when I see it is scripturally true, and when I have the peace from God that what I believe is true. I know, beyond the shadow of a doubt that there is a Trinty. I may not as of right now be able to give you any scripture that shows you that what I believe is true. (simply because I havn't been able to take the time to look them up yet, and I may never get the time.) I have read the scripture verses that agree with what I believe and also the ones that supposedly make it impossible. And I KNOW that what I believe is the truth.
 
"Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself, I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father." JOHN 10:17-18

Jesus took up his life after laying it down; but it was a commandement given of his Father. So did Jesus raise himself from the grave because he could (of his own will) or because he was obeying the commandment of his Father?

Acts.3:26) God, having raised up his Son

Acts.4:10) Whom God raised from the dead

Acts.10:40) Him (Jesus) God raised up

Acts.13:30) But God raised him from the dead

Acts.13:34) He (God) raised him (Jesus) from the dead

Acts.13:37) But he (Jesus) whom God raised

...found about 20 more but am tired of typing. Is there a more documented biblical statement than that "God RAISED Jesus", and yet you say he didn't? Maybe you should devote more time to reading bible text instead of Trinitarian footnotes?
