Nowhere in this creation story did God, our Triune God, say anything or do anything without the presence and agreement of all three personas of God.

Genesis 2:2 And on the seventh day God finished his work that he had done, and he rested on the seventh day from all his work that he had done.

Only after God rested in His finished works did He present Himself to His creation, to be seen, known, and to express His love, either as the Father, or as the Son or as the Holy Spirit.

Only the eternals can leave and return to the eternal realm.

We are not eternals, not yet anyway.

1 John 4:16 So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.

John 15:10 If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in his love.

The Father is God.

The Son is God.

The Holy Spirit is God.

John 14:20 In that day you will know that I am in my Father, and you in me, and I in you.

John 14:23 Jesus answered him, “If anyone loves me, he will keep my word, and my Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.

He wants others to know Him through His love that abides in you.

John 14:21 Whoever has my commandments and keeps them, he it is who loves me. And he who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him.”
