Pelaides
I am aware that it doesn't matter what anybody says or shows you, you will refuse to believe, I get that
So lets put all that a side for one moment.
Lets pretend just for kicks that you are writing a science fiction novel and in that novel you need characters, so you start to make up characters using your imagination.
Now you would agree with me that in using your imagination that you could make your characters be anything you want them to be, look anyway you want them to look, do whatever you want them to do.
Now just say you want to make these characters worship a god, and you decide that this god is going to be so powerful and magnificent that he is actually 3 beings from the same source of all of one substance.
This in the realm of imagination would not be impossible right?
Because when you use your imagination nothing is impossible.
Now lets bring this possibility in to reality, now all of a sudden what was only possible in your imagination has become unfathomable in reality.
But why?
Because by your own human reasoning, you determined that such a being could only be possible in fantasy. Your reality in the confines of your own mind does not allow you to comprehend nor understand how a being like that could ever exist and because of that you refuse to believe it.
(Luke 18:27) "What is impossible with man is possible with God."
(Job 11:7) "Can you fathom the mysteries of God? Can you probe the limits of the Almighty?
We are very limited in our ability to fathom such an almighty being, but this is what makes Him so Almighty, when we try to understand God with our own reasoning we limit his power, we reduce him considerably in order to understand him on some human level.
God says; "As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts." ( Isaiah 55:9)
Do you think it could ever be possible Pelaides that God could be so much bigger and greater then you could ever imagine. That a God so Almighty could not be fully explained by any human intellect no matter how advanced?
I nor anyone else can convince you, and thats fine, at the end of the day I still believe in a God who is greater then my mind can fathom, that I worship a God who is great and can not be put in a tidy little compartment in my mind. I wont delude myself by thinking that as I control my own reasoning that I can control the size of God, thus controlling how mighty I think God should be.
Pelaides dont you see that if you control the size of God by way of your intellect being understandable in all your ways, that its not God you worship, but a different lessor god you have made to fit your tastes.
By separating God the Father from God the Son you make Jesus our savor a lessor being, the Bible tells us clearly that only God can save and God is One. If Jesus was not God in the flesh on that cross then we are all in huge trouble and we are still need of a savior.
If you deny Christ divinity by separating him by substance then you do not accept Christ, because when you do accept Christ you accept him in his fullness as pointed out in scripture (being fully God and fully man). This puts you in grave danger because you have not yet accepted Christ.
I really hope you come to this realization someday, maybe you could even just pray over it and ask God to revel to you the truth.
Anyway.
