How can the doctrine of the Trinity really be true?

Question:

I hear preachers talk about the trinity. As I understand it, it means that God and Jesus are the same entity. They quote the first part of the first chapter of John. But in verse 18 (?) it says that no one has seen God but Jesus (put in lamans terms). I take that the first part of John based on the relationship spirtitualy and also as a father son relation. Where, as I understand in biblical times the son was seen as a direct reflection of the father. The I think in Mathews Jesus says that the Father is in me as I am in you. Also Jesus says that in my Fathers house there are many rooms. There are others quotes that make a distinction between father and son. As I also understand, God cannot look apon sin. Thats why he doesn’t interact with us face to face (in the flesh so to speak). Thats why Jesus said on the cross, My God, my God why have you forsaken me (God turned his back on Jesus as all the sins of man where cast apon him). If I can remeber right, on the day of judgement, isn’t Jesus going to stand and testify on behalf of all the Christans. Who did Jesus pray too? Why would the devil try to tempt Jesus if he where actually God. Did Satan offer Jesus dominion over the Earth while on top of a tower? More or less say that they are with me. One more, in the book of Revelations, if Jesus is God who is the lamb and who sets apon the throne? I tried to understand the preachings of the people that say the Jesus and God are the same enity (I don’t mean spiritually) I thought and prayed on this for a long time and click on your link at mamma.com. Thanks and God bless.Continue reading

More questions about the Trinity

Question:

More questions about the Trinity: 1) John 14:20 “I am in the Father, and ye in me, and I in you.”  2) When Jesus was in the cross and he said, ” My God , my God why hast thou forsaken me.”   After further studies I have a couple more questions.  1) Matthew 26:39 “O my Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me: nevertheless not as I will, but as thou wilt.” If Jesus is God why would he pray to God to lift this burden?  2) If Jesus is God, then why did he tell the disciples that he did not know the date of his return, only the Father knows?  If Jesus is God shouldn’t he know the time that he returns?Continue reading
