more about "The Trinity explained, the Trinity is...", posted with vodpod HOW ANCIENT IS THE TRINITY DOCTRINE? by Wesley P. WaltersAs different as para-Christian groups or cults are from each other, most have one thing in common: they hate the biblical teaching of the Trinity. They want their God to be simplistic, uncomplicated, and less complex than the world He created. They want a God reduced to terms they can get their finite minds around.Modern advances in science have shown that the created world is an extremely complex mechanism. Those who work in nuclear physics or molecular biology are continually discovering the complexity of the world God has created.In fact, some complex, seemingly contradictory data has yet to be fitted into a rational system that explains the relationships. A simple thing like "light" is known to move like "waves" yet strike like "particles." Atomic physicists are still struggling to put together a theory that can fully explain this apparent contradiction.Those who work in the complex mathematical equations of quantum mechanics are told by their instructors that "If you think that you really understand quantum mechanics and how it applies to reality, that proves you do not understand it." One of the basic theorems is that if the speed of a particle is known, then its location can not be known, and the more accurately you know its location, the less accurately you know its speed. This does not seem very logical to the average person, but it works very well in atomic physics, in which scientists get very close to the essence of matter.Thus, while scientists are continually learning more about how complex and even apparently contradictory the world of created reality is, cults that reject the complexity of the God who made this reality are proliferating. They, along with Moslems and modern Jews, taunt Christians, saying: "How can there be just one God, and yet the Father be God, the Son be God and the Holy Spirit be God? Is He the Son of Himself and the Father of both?"Eve
