When i ask Christians to explain the trinity, this is what they say:
Jesus is the son of God, But he is also God at the same time. God sent his son (Jesus/God) down to earth to save us. And the Holy Spirit is up there in the heaven as a spirit/ghost.
And then i say:
I dont understand it, can you elaborate more.
Then they say:
Neither do I, i cant really understand it but i believe it. You have to have faith that you understand it. But i believe it with all my heart....
I have asked my professors and Christian friends, they all say similar things. Every time after they attempt to explain it, they always end with something like the above (i cant understand it, i just believe in it). To me it is all fine if you have strong faith and belief in something, but make sure you understand what you believe.
So this is my Question.
Why would God reveal something to humans that we don’t understand, and expects us to have blind faith and believe rather then have a substantial understanding?
