The Trinity

So wait,

God is one god… but three in one…

Father. Son. Holy Spirit.

Singular in nature & character, but yet plural in person.

Distinguishable yet indivisible…?

Yeah me too.

This is pretty much how I’ve felt every single day I’ve been here in seminary.

Though one thing has helped a ton, a quote i read from a guy named J. Gerhard he said that, “we know God but we do not comprehend Him.” Meaning, God cannot be defined, or ever fully understood. He’s incomprehensible, yet through divine revelation, that being the power and given knowledge of the Holy Spirit, God and Jesus Christ, are revealed to us.

As limited as our knowledge and capability to comprehend the Holy can be, I still think we must try, we must seek, and in our effort that is when we find and encounter this divine revelation, that being Jesus Christ.

So I don’t know, I guess I just want to encourage those that are frustrated, discouraged, and doubting God or the existence/understanding of a “divine being” to keep searching, asking, talking, praying and seeking… You’re not alone in this, I’m right there with you in the confusion of it all.

How do you guys deal with the frustration of understanding (or lack thereof) the nature and character of God?
