If you have a better explanation of the Trinity I would be glad to read it.

I'd just bet you would; but what has that to do with the QUESTION asked??

Where do you come UP with THIS stuff?


Gods first thought was of Himself and that thought was so powerful and perfect that it resulted in the Son.

I thought it was one of your usual sarcastic digs or purely rhetorical.

God's first thought was of Himself and that thought was so powerful and perfect that it resulted in the Son.

It is basic Theology 101. God the is the only uncreated, uncaused being, He is Omniscient, and Omnipotent and perfect.
When God came into existence there was nothing else all was void. His first thought must have been self awareness. The only possible outcome of an omnipotent being becoming self aware would be for that awareness to be a mirrored reflection or that omnipotent perfection.

When the second being instantly became sentient there was no longer the void, There was only the "Father." The "Father" loved the "Son" with a perfect all powerful love and the "Son" loved the "Father" with an identical love. The love that proceeded from both the "Father" and the "Son" was also Omnipotent and perfect. As the "Father" and "Son" are both sentient there love must be sentient as well. This sentience is the Holy Spirit.

Like I said Theology 101 and pure logic.

Now if you have a better explanation of the Trinity I would love to read it. If all you have is one of your usual smarmy comments I would not like to read it.
