my friend amanda, (non denom christian) pointed out that the trinity is like calling a woman, a daughter, a wife, and a daughter. three different names, but same person. but still, if God, Jesus, and holyspirit were different names for the same God, and they all had different roles.
i like this analogy a lot. am i correct?
People can come up with so many examples to explain the Trinity, but its easier to just bend the knee and accept the Trinity for what it is and realize God's ways and thoughts are higher than ours (Isaiah 55:9). The examples of the Trinity are just given to show that it is not illogical, they are not given to show 100% that is how the Trinity is.
