In my last blog, I dealt with the issue of the Trinity and our likeness to the image of God. I illustrated how we are in fact in His image with one significant difference in the inability to poly locate. There is a claim that St. Anthony di Padua was seen in two different places at the same time, while in Padua, Italy and the other in Lisbon Portugal. However, humans are not capable of this. In this blog, I would like to illustrate another example of a Trinity. Water is mentioned many times in scripture. I could be that God wants to draw our attention to it.
Here is one example of the use of water. Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him, and he would have given you living water.” (John 4:10 NIV) I find it interesting that people seem to overlook the Trinity nature of water. Common sense and an elementary education would tell you that water has three states, vapor or the gas state that is invisible to the eye, the liquid, and a solid state. All three are similar to the condition of the human body, and The mind is the invisible state, blood the liquid condition and finally a physical or solid form. Water is very much like God in all three conditions the same compound is present, two parts Hydrogen and one part Oxygen. In the Trinity, God is present in all three states. It is written in John 10:30 (NIV) Jesus proclaims, “I and the father are one.” Well, if ice could speak it would say, “I and water vapor are one.”
When we pour ice into a glass of water, all three states of H2O are present the amount of water slowly evaporating, liquid and ice. God in His seated position on His Throne have all three conditions current in One. Like H2O He can appear in three separate forms at will. His spirit, essences, element, nature, fabric call it what you choose is present in each persona. Many people from scientists, to believers of other faiths and even those of the Christian faith find it difficult to comprehend the nature of God as a Trinity. Three beings in one being, but a simple look at water we can discern the mystery. Water can fall from the sky, rest as snow on a mountaintop while flowing in rivers and filling oceans. No one question the fact they are all two parts Hydrogen and one part Oxygen, a Trinity that exists all at the same time for a different task. Once again unlike God who can poly locate and H2O also in three forms at once, humans have not developed the skill to do so thus far.
I hope this straightforward illustration provides you with the understanding that God can do anything He wants. Two God can use poly location to be in different forms at the same time. It is a simple thing for God. Three God essence is the element in each condition much like H2O is the fundamental element in all three forms of water.
