One God in Three Person- A mathematical problem for many

Isn’t believing in Trinity a kind of polytheism?

Many simply argue 1+1+1=3 as they represent the infinite, eternal, omniscient, omnipotent and omnipresent God with the smallest number they have been taught in kindergarten. God cannot be defined by a number since He is infinite. Because of the limitation of our mind and intellect we need some symbols or representation to perceive certain concepts. The only number which can represent God is Infinity (∞). We know that at ∞ every human equation fails.

∞+ ∞+ ∞= ∞

∞× ∞× ∞= ∞

Trinity is the Revelation of True God we see in Injeel and Holy Scriptures

The word ‘Trinity’ is not recorded in the Holy Scriptures or Injeel, just like the word ‘Tawheed’ is not recorded in the Qur’an. Trinity is a word coined by early church fathers in their attempt to explain triune God, i.e.; One God eternally existing in Three Persons. Church fathers didn’t invent this idea, they just affirmed and articulated how God has progressively revealed Himself in the Holy Scriptures and Injeel through human experience(history).

Christians do not worship three Gods

The first article of faith compiled by early church fathers is known as Nicene Creed. Christians worldwide recite this during their worship. The very first line of this Creed says “We believe in One God,”

Nowhere in the Injeel or Holy Scriptures believers are commanded or exhorted to worship three gods. Rather it reveals and affirms again and again that the True God is One, who eternally exists in Three Persons in perfect love and communion.
