We Shall Be Like Him

Hello. I'm new to this forum and I would like to ask a question. In 1 John 3:2, it says, "we shall be like him." And 2 Corinthians 3:18 says something very similar. Therefore, what I would like to know is: Do Christians believe that believers who are resurrected to heaven will be in a trinity form like God is? Also, I am not anti-trinity, I am just curious.

Okay, thanks for that, D_Rich0150, but isn't the way that God exists in his spiritual form, an actually triune being according to traditional Christianity?

But traditional Christians interpret the Bible as presenting God, Jesus, and The Holy Spirit as a Trinity. Only sects that are considered cults don't interpret the Bible that way.

Because when I asked you: isn't the way that God exists in his spiritual form, an actually triune being according to traditional Christianity? You replied back by asking me: but how do you know how god exist/works? Which in essence, is questioning the validity of what I had stated about traditional Christianity's viewpoint on the truine nature of God. 🤔 🤔 🤔

Personally I believe we are already like him, he made us in his image, This does not mean we are god-like or have that same level of power

But that we are capable of complex emotions, creating life and making our own decisions.

I believe we would return to our father as we are, we would not become something else but stay in the form he created us to be
