Perhaps the most common difficulty with the Trinity is that the numbers just don’t seem to add up. Certainly, there are those who are content to resolve the difficulty by waving a white flag and surrendering with, "God is a mystery.” Yet while the notion of one God who is three Persons is profoundly mysterious, believing in mystery does not mean believing in something that is unreasonable or illogical. To assert that something is a mystery is to say we don’t have the capacity to ever know it completely. A mystery isn’t something we can’t know anything about; rather it is something we can’t know everything about. Moreover, God would not mock us by revealing something about Himself from which we could not derive more insights.
In Christ, Ken.
