In trying to explain how the trinity works - and is composed - You have Water - When water is very cold it turns to ice and when you boil the kettle you see hot water turn to steam - There is an example of 3 componants of one substance and they are all H2O There was in the eary church a debate that damaged the church and it was under discussion for 60 years - Whether Jesus was the essecne or the Substance of the Father - - How about both - Take a loaf of bread - the essence is the yeast inside the bread - the susstance if the bread itself - Hope this helps |

3 | Trinity explanation made easy??????????? | Bible general Archive 1 | EdB | 73422 | ||
Polycarp Your example of water ice and steam is neat, but as I stated earlier it fails in the fact that all three can't not exist at the same time. Where the Trinity does. The fact is we can not put into to words the mysteries of God, we have to accept them by faith. This is one of the problems in modern day Christianity we try to explain God and it simply can not be done. We can explain what He has revealed but great are His mysteries. EdB |
