The Incomprehensible God




Trinity is "not" the primary focus of reconciliation. Many who doubt reconciliation seem to portray beliefs in a Triune God as the primary focus as well as a stumbling block to believing. Some use trinity as a limiting factor to discredit others' faith. But whether anyone believes in trinity or not has no bearing on reconciliation.

The primary purpose of the Trinity is a comprehension issue. Every conceivable way humans can think of describing God does not come close to the all inclusiveness of God. Every possible comprehension people have of God, no matter how unbridled, still holds God inside a box of human understanding. The truth be known, God is limitless and unbridled.

No matter what version of any sort of faith, God is identified and described by them all. Whether Christian, Jew, Muslim, or any other; none have a corner on the God-market. God can not, and never will be, all-inclusively described even by the historical sum of all human beings. Even the Christian Bible only uses Trinity as one form of describing God but recognizes that it is nowhere near complete.

So how can we know God? How can people gain any kind of comprehension of, and relation to, an unlimited God? The number one fact to remember is that God would not be our God if God was not unlimited to us. Anyone who believes they have a greater grasp on God than another is fooling themselves. Trying to describe and identify with God without sharing God’s endlessness is a contradiction of astronomical proportions.

Trinity has been capitalized on by multitudes of people because it is a very comprehendible way to have a type of understanding of God. It is comparably easy to grasp a Triune God in our three dimensional existence. People who understand ourselves to have a body, soul, and spirit tend to find it fairly easy to comprehend a Triune God of similar elements. Many, who do not tend to grasp understanding of people as body, soul, and spirit, generally do not relate well to a Triune God. Likewise, it is a struggle for many to fathom how multitudes of elements and levels exist in humans similar to the multiple levels of God's existence.


God has no problem with people who do not relate to the Trinity way of understanding. God is not limited to Trinity and has provided reconciliation regardless of people's abilities to comprehend God in any form.  Some people tend to get frustrated when they realize that God is not fully comprehendible. By being frustrated over other's relating to trinity or not, or for any other ideals and conceptions of God, frustration seems to bring out the worst attitudes of people towards God, each other, and all creation.

There seems to be a misconception among people when it comes to faith of all kinds. It is not true, but it can be found buried deep inside our hearts. The belief is that without complete comprehension and understanding of God there is no reconciliation or ability to have faith in God. Much the opposite, true faith is the ability to search for understanding of God while recognizing Gods incomprehensible limitlessness. To know God more, you must know God's ultimate lack of limits, without understanding them.  The more we know, the more we recognize how much we don’t know.  God miraculously chooses to limit Himself for our sake, but He is ultimately limitless and infinitely worthy of recognition unlike anything mortal human beings can define.
