Help Me Understand the Trinity!

2019-05-28

What is the trinity? How can one God exists as three persons? The doctrine of the Trinity is a fundamental doctrine and foundational for the Christian faith, but we in our finite minds cannot fully comprehend it. However, this does not mean that we should not seek to know Him at all. In this conversation, we discuss some parameters that will help us understand the trinity. We talk about how our God is one essence and three persons. We talk about how each person of the trinity is fully God and exists simultaneously. We also dive into how the trinity actually models how we should live today as believers in a local church. Perfect unity and diversity exist in the Godhead, and all of this compels our hearts to delight in Him. We believe it’s important for all believers to have a proper understanding of the trinity, and we pray this conversation helps!
