Understanding the Relationship of God and Man,
By
This review is from: The Trinity in the Universe (Paperback)
Nathan Wood offers the best illustration of triunity I have found. It applies to both God and mankind in His image.
The universe is composed of three elements: matter, time and space. Matter is composed of three dimensions: length, breadth and height. Time is composed of three factors: future, present and past. These triunities reflect the aspects of their creator. God is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Man in God's image is soul, body and spirit. When we look at a person we see his body; we look at Jesus and see God in a body. Behind the body of a man is a soul which animates his body. Behind Jesus is the Father who manifests himself in his Son. A man's soul expresses his will through his body emanating spiritual influence. God the Father expresses his will through his Son sending the Holy Spirit to do his work. Which part of a man is man, soul, body, or spirit? All three! Which part of the trinity is God? All three in eternal divine unity. Man, however is only a miniature replica of God. In God, each person of the trinity is magnified to an individual identity. Man as a replica is not a perfect illustration, but in my opinion it's better than a triangle or a shamrock. Russ Ogden, Ph.D., Pastor Emeritus Grace Brethren Church, Lanham, Maryland. |
