The Trinity - 1 Yet 3 - Makes Human Family-Love-Relationships Possible

[JAG]

​The Trinity is all about Love. The Trinity is heart-warming. It is the Trinity
that makes human loving family relationships possible , , , but first let is
"get the math out of the way."

All orthodox Christians are Trinitarians, that is, we believe there is one God
who exists in three Persons -- Father, Son, and Holy Spirit..

Unfortunately many people get bogged down in the seemingly mathematical
contradiction involved in 1 yet 3.

Forget trying to solve the 1 yet 3 thingy -- that's impossible to solve. Why?
Because there is nothing on this earth comparable to 1 yet 3. Here on the
1 yet 3 truth, we must rely only on revealed truth {revelation .. the Bible}.
God says He is 1 yet 3 and therefore God is 1 yet 3.

Now to the heart-warming elements of the Holy Trinity:
{as a human being you can warmly relate to all that follows}

Within the Holy Trinity there is the following:

■ Family -- the Three separate Persons are Family. They function like a Family.

■ Love -- the Three separate Persons love each other dearly.

■ Communication and conversation -- the Three separate Persons talk to each
other in loving relationships.

■ Family Relationships -- the Three separate Persons immensely enjoy their
I -You relationship.

■ Close friendship and close fellowship -- the Three Persons enjoy their
close friendship relationships. They are Friends.

We were made in God's image and this is why we all crave all that up
there also. God desires all the above. We also desire all the above. We
humans crave love and friendship and loving family relationships because
we are made in the image of God and that image is in us forever.

{By the way, there is a difference in WHAT and WHO.
God is 1 yet 3 in His BEING. His being is WHAT He is.
God is 1 yet 3 in PERSONS. His Personhood is WHO He is.}

Back to Love and Family Relationships , , ,

We are capable of loving our family members because God is a Family --
a Family of 3. We are made in His image. If God were 1 in 1, instead of
1 yet 3, we would be incapable of enjoying loving family relationships.

The fact that God is 1 yet 3 is what makes us social creatures who crave love
and friendship and loving family relationships. We were made in the image of
God.

By the way, God, as early as Genesis, said let US make man in OUR image
and in OUR likeness. Genesis 1:26. We understand from the New Testament
that Genesis 1:26 was an early reference to the Holy Trinity.

These three remain: Faith, Hope, and Love. But the greatest of these is Love.

You guys realize a cosmic star stuff space alien had to talk to farmers with dung on their faces in 20 A.D.? I hate modern cultures.... They had to spend all of 300 A.D. explaining what a cosmic star stuff space alien from 20 A.D. was able to be three substances at the same time. The space stuff that can be three substances may occupy people. The Chalcedonian Creed believes that space stuff occupied a woman who is not a mother. The Nicene Creed believes in three things that are God.

By the way, vows similar to this are owed to God and Church and not to each other, as the centerpiece of Western Civilization in all ages and Churches or particular these Anglican/Presbyterian wedding vows of duty in a Church and public role and function in decent modern societies.

to have an to hold from this day forward, for better for worse,
for richer or for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish,
'til death do us part, according to God’s
ordinance; and thereto I pledge thee my troth.
I vow to be your faithful husband/wife, understanding that marriage is a
lifelong union, and not to be entered into lightly, for the purpose of
mutual fellowship, encouragement and understanding; for the
procreation of children and their physical and spiritual nurture. I hereby
give myself to you in this cause with my sacred vow before God.

Might notice this bit of Downton Abbey Bates had vowed with a wife, they hated each other to hurt each other. Seems she ran into a bit of an accident. Nobody explained if he did it but let me say this... Look at all this support he got, then he got off of course, eventually, drama, but look, no they didn't explain if he got away with the old King Henry, 5 dead wives , what a coincidence.

The Spirit is as a part of God as my spirit is part of me. Jesus was God coming to earth to make the only sacrifice possible. Man could never do it.

Don't attack what you don't now about.
