Bible Question: How can one scriptually explain the Trinity? Is it possible? |
Bible Answer: How can one even explain string theory in the Cosmos completely. If that gives us problems, how about the far more difficult concept of God? Instead God gives us Parables to understand. Look at John 15. Look at Rom 11:17-21. I have a parable from these. Roots, and olive trunk and sap look totally unlike each other. All three separate, yet one. God is the roots, the source of All. Jesus is the trunk, the only visible part to which we are all connected. only through staying connected to Jesus can we receive the nourishing sap, the Holy Spirit. This is not complete, because God is also the tree keeper who prunes branches. Still, the illustration is there in scripture to help us understand three yet one. There is no place in scripture that "trinity" is mentioned, but John 15 calls the Holy Spirit He. Greentwiga |
