Is God One or Three? Effiong Ekong

Many Christian writers affirm that the Holy Trinity is an impenetrable mystery, to be believed only and never to be understood. To a great extent that is so and spiritually appropriate. Living with unsolved mystery helps to make us humble. Affirming a mystery as impenetrable represents a veiled acknowledgement on our part that the power, prerogative and initiative to resolve the mystery resides exclusively with God. As has been His custom in dealing with His intelligent creatures, if God wants to be understood, as indeed He desires (Jeremiah 9:23-24; Hosea 6:6), He would have to reveal Himself. In the same token, if He wishes to be comprehended as Triune, He Himself has to make that possible. In this book you will learn what God has done to resolve the Holy Trinity mystery. You will see how the created order, with the inherent and pervasive Trinity Principle, objectifies the Creator and proves the Creator to be One and Three without the slightest contradiction metaphysically. The Trinity Principle in creation decisively makes the Trinity doctrine delightfully intelligible. You will also learn the divine attributes revealed in each of the revealed Names of God. Most importantly, you will learn how to experience God in Christ and enjoy Him forever.
