When learning about god, jesus and the holy spirit....what is the hardest thing for you to understand and accept? What just seemed to click and finally make sense?

Salvation for me was the hardest thing to understand. I always believed in the gospel of JESUS CHRIST, which is the death, burial, and ressurection, but i never knew that you had to accept and receive it and ask HIM into your heart. i finally realized that.... i,..... me,.... An-g,... had to accept His free gift of salvation, in order to get to heaven, and in order to have the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD living in my heart. Cuz i was still trying to get to heaven by "good works", and i thought that i was going to go to heaven if I was a "good person".
When i realized that HIM going to the cross was REALLY about giving me life, then THAT'S when everything seemed to click, and thats when i realized that i don't have to go to hell to pay for my own sins,HE paid for them by dying on the cross, and all i had to do, all that anyone has to do is believe that, and accept the gift that he freely gives through the salvation of JESUS CHRIST. He gives us grace. Grace is- GOD not giving us what we deserve...which is hell. And also gives us mercy. Mercy is- GOD giving us what we don't deserve....which is heaven.
After accepting HIM into my heart i felt that i had that peace that every other Christian was telling me about, and you will never know TRUE peace until that day....you will not EVER fear anything again...not life...not death....not anything....the void or empty spot that each and every person has, can be filled through accepting JESUS into their lives.....i have never regretted it, and i thank GOD through JESUS CHRIST our LORD that HE bought and paid for my sins....i'm free from the bondage of sin and now i also have that security in knowing that i am going to heaven, not bcuz of anything that i have done, but bcuz of what JESUS did, i am considered blameless in the sight of GOD ALMIGHTY.....GOD IS SO GOOD :)

The hardest to understand is the concept of eternity. I can almost wrap my mind around forever going forward, but I can't grasp that God never had a beginning....He just always was. I also can't understand how He can be so forgiving. What clicks is just the whole thing. How wonderful His creations are. To look into anyone's face...to see the details and the differences. To see the sun set or rise....to see the beautiful colors.

that only GOD has the ability to save us. I will always miss the mark without trusting in God's ability, instead of my own.

That the male entities are considered dieties and the female was a human. It glorifies masculinity and I don't buy it.

Nothing ever clicked, therefore I am an atheist.

I dunno it still doesn't make sense sometimes. But I know God and Jesus are here for me all the time.
