That is kinda OK if it works for you. It may be simplistic since there is really no way a human mind can properly assimilate this.

I tend to remember that the Lord God likes 'threes' and it can be observed all around us. So I think that there are three distinct functional Persons of the God-Head.

Just remember that beings we refer to as angels are God's heavenly spirits. The word 'angel' is just a function and means messenger.

A human mind can't assimilate that three persons are of one mind/will/cohere?

Does anyone think that God the Father and God the Son (Jesus) have a relationship similar to those between earthly fathers and sons?

Yes, however, more correct, our relationship is similar to that of the Father and Son, ...it existed way before we did, ...it's an example for us. 

Lord bless

Not according to Scripture.    

Yahuweh and Yahushua have been echad eternally without beginning,  and are echad without end. 

The flesh has a beginning and an end,  in earthly fathers and sons.   Also,  earthly fathers are wicked (yet  may give good gifts to their sons in spite of that).   Earthly sons are wicked too,   usually.

Remember that in Scripture it is written that Yahuweh (the Creator) IS SPIRIT ,

and it is written that Yahuweh (the Creator) is not a man (not human - not a person).

Thus,  man has certainly made a mess of things in the last 2000 years by religion.

Also,

it is written,  the normal (natural) mind (of man) CANNOT grasp (cannot understand) spirituals.

So you were unable to comprehend this sentence: "Three persons are of one mind exactly"?

It is like how a human the son is the son of the human the father. So, yes I would say it is like this. 

But I think every Christian teaching and scripture has a love meaning for us to live. 

So, we understand the Trinity by how God means this to help us find out how to love. 

"Father" and "Son" are Persons of family tenderly caring and sharing love. God is not called the Judge and Prosecutor and Bailiff, or the Bank President and Bank Manager and Bank Teller, or the General and Lieutenant and Sargent.

So, we know the Trinity by living in Their way of loving. And God's word has scriptures about how to become and how to relate in Their love. More and more, we understand the Trinity, by living the way Their love has us relating.

That is true.

    • Exhortation - October 24, 2024

      Albert Finch posted a blog entry in Albert Finch Ministry,

      You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • The Simchat Torah War -- Is this a Water Breaking Moment of Revival?

      George posted a topic in Biblical Topic Videos,

      George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

      Daniel: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 3

      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this study, I'll be focusing on Daniel and his picture of the resurrection and its connection with Yeshua (Jesus).

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2

      George posted a topic in Study Group,

      Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
