A Clover

1 John 5:7
Top of the morning to you! I had to go with a St. Patrick's Day theme for today's post. The clover can be used to remind us of the Holy Trinity (as long as it's not a 4 leaf clover). It's three leaves that are generally of equal size as each part of God is of equal importance to us. As, the Trinity is a difficult subject even for Christians to fully explain I am going to provide a few solid sources I have found on the internet that present an excellent discussion on it.

1. Dr. Brown is a Messianic Jew and does an excellent job in explaining the Trinity in this video on YouTube. He also has a great website discussing Jesus as Messiah at Real Messiah .com
2. The website Bible Knowledge also has an easy to understand explanation of the Trinity

These give a lot of help in understanding that we worship one God who has three distinct personalities or natures, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Each is co-equal and co-eternal. While the word "Trinity" is never used in the Bible, there are multiple places where each person of the Godhead is present. We see it when Jesus is baptized and scripture states the Spirit came as a dove upon him, and that the Father spoke from heaven: ¹⁶"As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the water. At that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him. ¹⁷And a voice from heaven said, 'This is my Son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased.' (Matthew 3:15-17 NIV)" John also mentions the three in one: "⁷For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. (1 John 5:7 KJV)" Our God is wonderful and not easy for the human mind to comprehend. Thankfully he gives us a glimpse at who He is, but we must remember that for now we see a dim reflection like a mirror, only in the next life will we fully see (1 Corinthians 13:12).
