Trinity
The original message

Hoe verduidlik ek die volgende vraag wat n persoon vra: Die drie eenheid is iets wat sy nie verstaan nie. Hoe kan Jesus sterf op die kruis en God bly lewe. Kan iemand n goeie verduidliking gee in Engels asb.

Hi Magda,

I would like to give you this very effective way to describe the Trinity. One of the best illustrations I've seen is to explain the Trinity with H2O. The Father is GOD, His Son Jesus Christ is GOD and the Holy Spirit is GOD, just as ice is H2O, water is H2O and vapour is H2O.

Ice being God the Father,
water is Jesus and,
vapour is the Holy Spirit.

To show the vapour filling the room as with the Holy Ghost, use a kettle. To make this fun use your imagination... Jesus is the living waters (poured into the kettle), the Father (ice) is the solid centre from which all power (let the ice melt into water) flows, etc.

If someone physically sees how ice became water and water became vapour... and then explain that they are different in texture but they are still exactly the same, namely H2O, they could easily understand God. The same with God, He manifests in three ways, but it is still one God.
