3 unusual facts about Godhead


Immanence

In Catholic theology, Christ and the Holy Spirit immanently reveal themselves; God the Father only reveals himself immanently vicariously through the Son and Spirit, and the Divine Nature, the Godhead is wholly transcendent and unable to be comprehended.

Muhammerah

Like “Muhtār’īyyah”, “Hāsheem’īyyah”, “Kabr’īyyah”, all of them were from the Ghulat Shia madh'hab of Kaysān’īyyah defending the Godhead of Muhammad ibn al-Hanafiyyah, another son of Ali from his wife Khawlah bint Ja'far.

Pleroma

It thus expressed the various thoughts which we should express by the Godhead, the ideal, heaven; and it is probably owing to this ambiguity, as well as to its heretical associations, that the word dropped out of Christian theology.


Balarama

Krishna has been described as creator, and Balarama his creative potency, with them being worshiped together as embodiment of Godhead.

Beliefs and practices of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints

The church's view of the Godhead breaks with Nicene Creed tradition and believes it returns to the teachings taught by Jesus.

Debjan

The book also touches upon long standing debates in Hindu theology like that between Advaita Vedanta which believes that one Supreme Impersonal Godhead Brahman permeates the entire Universe and the creation is the superimposition of this impersonal through Maya, and Vaishnavism, which is a dualist doctrine, i.e. it believes in God separate from the creation, viz. world.

He

The pronoun He, with a universally capitalized H, is often used to refer to the Supreme Being, or in Christian contexts, to Jesus Christ; "It", with a capitalized I, is also used when speaking of the Supreme Being's nature or Godhead, or in Christian contexts, to refer to the Logos; capitalized "He" and "It" have both been used to refer to the Holy Spirit.

Hinduism and other religions

The Holy Trinity of Christianity, consisting of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, is sometimes seen as roughly analogous to the Trimurti of Hinduism, whose members -- Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva -- are seen as the three principal manifestations of Brahman, or Godhead.

Posthuman Records

Danny Chaotic of American industrial rock band Chaotica also worked with the label, remixing Godhead's cover of the Beatles' popular "Eleanor Rigby".

Satisfaction theory of atonement

John Stott has stressed that this must be understood not as the Son placating the Father, but rather in Trinitarian terms of the Godhead initiating and carrying out the atonement, motivated by a desire to save humanity.

Satsvarupa dasa Goswami

His articles in the Back to Godhead often demonstrate variety of legitimate perspectives on different issues and perspectives in spiritual understanding of Gaudiya Vaishnavism.
