The Trinity doctrine is the foundation for the Christian faith. Like God, it is crucial to understand exactly how he relates to us and how it relates to him. But it increases the most complex questions. How will God be two and three? Trinity is a contradiction? If Jesus is God, why would he record the Gospel records of God's prayer?
Although we can not fully understand the Trinity, we can answer these questions and come to the solid understanding of what it means to be three.
One God, Three Persons
The doctrine of the Trinity means that there is a God who has three different persons-Father, Son and Holy Spirit. In contrast, God is one with essence and one of three persons. These definitions express three important truths: 1) the Father, …show more content…
Thus, they are related to each other - the father thinks he is "I" when he thinks the Son and the Holy Spirit as "you". Similarly, the Son thinks of himself as "I" but the Father and the Holy Spirit are "you."
Often, it expresses that "if Jesus is God, he should have prayed while he was still on earth." However, the answer to these objections applies to what we have already seen. If Jesus and the Father are God, they are different people. So Jesus prayed to God without praying to Himself. (Matthew 3:17; 17: 5; John 5:19; 11: 41-42; 17: 1ff) The best proof is that they are unique individuals with special centers of consciousness.
Sometimes the Father and Son of the Fatherhood is praised, but the neglect of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes the soul acts more like a "power" than a person.But the Holy Spirit is not a "no," but "he" (John 14:26; Acts 16: 7-15; Acts 8:16).

The Bible is clear that all three hundred and every hundred percent are God. Father, Son, Holy Spirit is one God. For example, Colossians 2: 9 says about Christ, "The fullness of the deity is in the form of the body." We should not think of God as "above" that we cut God into three pieces, each part representing each individual.It makes every man completely less than God and hence is not God. Instead, "every man is equal to God's abundance" (Gudem, Systematic Theology, 1994, page 255). Divine essence is not something that is divided between three persons, but "three persons" are not completely divided into
