Explaining the Trinity
During a recent bible study, I heard an explanation of the Trinity that actually clicked with me. It made so much sense and appealed to my visual nature.
Imagine a carton of neapolitan ice cream. One carton, 3 flavors.
-Chocolate, Vanilla, Strawberry.
-Father, Son, Holy Spirit.
All distinctly separate, yet together in one carton. Now get a big spoon and swirl all the flavors together. Just a bit to mix it all up.
Three distinct flavors, but impossible to separate them.
That made sense to me.
The Trinity = Neapolitan Ice Cream, Swirled.
