Many stories and books have been written with mystery being the genre.  Most of the time the mystery is solved by the last page or, if you’re very clever, before the story ends.

God’s book, the Bible, includes some mysteries as well.  There is the mystery of the conception of Jesus – women conceiving and baring children beyond menopause -a man being swallowed up up a whale and living to tell about it – a natural disaster that consumed all but eight of the earth’s human beings – and on and on.

One such unexplainable mystery is the trinity of God.  How can there be three distinct Gods and yet only one God?  How can the Father and Son be the same entity?  Isn’t it a lie for God to command us to love only one God and still He is three separate entities?  All of these are pressing questions that weigh on those who think they are dealing with someone who is on the same plane as them.

God is far superior to us.  He’s the One who created us, so His intellect is far beyond our understanding.  The minute we try to figure Him out, we are trying to set ourselves above Him.

What we can do is accept the trinity as His amazing truth through faith – which is really the source of our relationship with Him anyway.  The evidence of His trinity is hidden within the pages of His Word and will be revealed to us fully when we meet Him face to face.  For now, just believe Him when He tells you something is true.  You can trust Him.  He is the Holy Three in One!
