THE TRINITY, A MYSTERY

Those who teach the doctrine of the Trinity claim that it is a mystery. They claim that the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is also God. How they can be three separate persons and yet not be three persons is something they cannot explain; yet they insist that any who want to be saved must accept by faith, because this is a mystery beyond our comprehension. Could this be the reason they label it a mystery? Luke 1:36 says that Mary's cousin Elizabeth has conceived a son, John, six months before Jesus. This makes John and Jesus second cousins and John six months older than Jesus. Luke 3:23 says that Jesus was thirty years old when John baptized him...and here is where the mystery begins. The trinity teachers claim that Jesus is God. This immediately makes John God's second cousin and makes John six months older than God. So man was here on earth six thousand years before God was born. This is ridiculous, but it gets more confusing when you read Luke 3:21 and 23. John had the unspeakable privilege of baptizing his creator, who was also his second cousin but the incredible thing is that John was six months old before his Creator was born. The Trinity advocates say that the Holy Spirit is also God. Now, get this! While John is standing there, in the water, he sees God come down in the form of a dove and sit on top of his own head! And this is not all. He gets a good look at God. God is now either a bird sitting on top of what looks like a man or is it the other way around? And then, he discovers that this God-bird-man is also a ventriloquist! While he stands there in disbelief, God tells a deliberate lie to the people who are watching. Obviously he doesn't want the people to know that he is really God, so he throws his voice to make it appear like someone in heaven is speaking and saying, "This is my beloved son in whom I am well pleased." Isn't it amazing? No wonder they call it a mystery and let it go at that.
