@Campbell34,
Question:
Is God ...
(1)- One and three simultaneously?
OR
(2)- One and three at a time ?
OR
(3)- Three and one at the same time ?
And as usal no direct answer could any christian give. Therefore, I will answer the above question myself!
Now let me hypothetically assume that you answer this simple question according to the following three answers:
Answer #1: If God is one and three simultaneously, then none of the three could be the complete God. Granting that such was the case, then when Jesus was on earth, he wasn?t a complete God, nor was the "Father in Heaven" a whole God. Doesn?t that contradict what Jesus always said about His God and our God in heaven, his Lord and our Lord? Does that also mean that there was no complete god then, between the claimed crucifixion and the claimed resurrection?
Answer # 2: If God is one and three at a time, then who was the God in heaven when Jesus was on earth? Wouldn?t this contradict his many references to a God in Heaven that sent him?
Answer # 3: If God is three and one at the same time, who was the God in Heaven within three days between the claimed crucifixion and the claimed resurrection?
