Scripture is clear.

Yup...


John 6:28-29 (niv)

Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works God requires?”

Jesus answered, “The work of God is this: to believe in the one he has sent.”

 


1 John 3:21-24

  Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have confidence before God and receive from him anything we ask, because we keep his commands and do what pleases him.  And this is his command: to believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another as he commanded us.  The one who keeps God’s commands lives in him, and he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.

Very good.

The trouble is that when one’s understanding of the Triune God is so far from the mark as to be incognizable. It is as if one is trying to define a blue whale and winding up defining an amoeba.

One of the problems with individuals trying to define God is that they pay exorbitant attention to the image in the mirror.
