My initial statement was something alluding to the vanity of man to liken God’s image to philosophy.... Thus ‘who should dare do such a thing... and what good can come from this effort.’ Yet, I was wrong in stating that I can skirt the whole issue and not commit to explaining the relationship myself. I know what you are asking... I do believe that the Trinity doctrine negates itself. It says 3 = 1. I believe it really means 3 = 3... but won’t admit it. It hands me a paradox as explanation. It calls me anti-Christian for really/truly believing that Jesus Christ IS God.

Act 21:13 Then Paul answered, What mean ye to weep and to break mine heart? for I am ready not to be bound only, but also to die at Jerusalem for the name of the Lord Jesus.

Psa 148:13 Let them praise the name of the LORD: for his name alone is excellent; his glory [is] above the earth and heaven.

Phl 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of [things] in heaven, and [things] in earth, and [things] under the earth;

1Cr 1:10 Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and [that] there be no divisions among you; but [that] ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment.

(That last verse was a strange one to put in here... but I think it fits)

Thank you for asking... but for the time being, I don't see any common ground in this doctrinal difference we *share* At least, if anything... we've all stirred the waters and realize how important are the answers. I'm not so vain to think I know much, nor have much to learn.
