Fully God - Fully Man

Fully God - Fully Man (essay) (June 24, 2010)

In school, we learned the elementary compound H2O (water) exists in three forms; solid, liquid, and gas. We have no problem accepting this. We can see, feel, and taste it. In all three forms, we can prove it. It is TRUE!

Then why is it so hard for us to accept God in three forms; The Father, The Son, and The Holy Ghost?

Three completely separate forms, yet the same elemental make-up. Father-creator, maker of all (this includes the elements to make water, as well as the water itself.) Son, the Father in Earthly form. Born as a baby, grew to be a child, then man. Died upon a cross and rose to defeat death. Spirit, all present, all-powerful, all-knowing, living among us, within us.

They have the same elemental make-up, the same DNA as it were. Not even twins have the same DNA. They are all three, in the beginning, all three, in the end, all three eternal.

So why can’t we see it -- oh! Because we can’t “see” it.

We have a difficult time grasping the unseen. Space, even Earth, until we “saw” it, we didn’t believe it. We still don’t understand it. We build bigger, better, more powerful tools (with God-given abilities) to prove the Universe exists and to disprove the existence of God. The creator of the very things we’re trying to understand. If it’s not taught in the classroom from an out-of-date, dilapidated textbook, it’s still just a theory, waiting to be proven, or rejected.

We have to believe that what is unseen exists. We believe in oxygen - I’ve never seen it. We believe in natural gas. We believe in the very air we breathe. But we struggle with the belief that the one who created all exists.

Maybe one day somebody will put it down in a textbook so we can learn it. OH YEAH - someone already did. Only 2,000 years ago. And it hasn’t needed an update or revision yet. THE HOLY BIBLE
