The Mystery of the Blessed Trinity has always been baffling even the intelligent of minds, It is just difficult to mathematically conclude that 1 is equal to 3. No way.
Thus, the doubt. The unbelief.
Years ago, I heard someone explain in a funny way that the mystery is just like a man who married a woman and nine months later, the equation simply was 1+1=3.
God Is really like that. He loves us to stretch our minds to the limits.
Yet, to some who are not as intelligent, the abundance of faith is overwhelming. Such is the case of the only saint who can fly - Joseph of Cupertino, adjudged a dimwit. In his simple way, he was able to explain the Blessed Trinity.

The mystery remains a mystery and beyond human comprehension. It's like a 3 in one coffee, where the 3 elements are present but you take it as one.

It is really a mystery that it is so hard to explain. Anyway, just believe in one true God!

Not really difficult. God can multiply His Self exponentially.

I like to base my beliefs on the Bible which I view as God's word and I never found the word trinity in the Bible.

The History of Salvation and Christianity came before the books of the Bible were collected.
In the Bible, God created the world, sent His Son Jesus to redeem us from sin, and the Holy Spirit to be with us in the Church we love. Did you not see the Trinity? The Trinity is the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

@buenavida Read again, from beginning to end. It's so enjoyable once you discover the Trinity.

Science and our beliefs in religion don't always get along. There are many stories of miracles that can't be explained through facts alone. But the strength of our faith is what makes us believe the unexplainable.
Thank you for sharing this video. I'll definitely find a copy and watch that movie.

Decades ago, I did watch on Discovery Channel many scientists yielding to the Power of God. They were awed when the realized that the galaxies of the universe have same semblance to the corals of the reef.
Joseph of Cupertino is on youtube. He is the funniest saint. I watch the movie time and again. And I laugh every time,. And cry.

For me, the mystery of the Blessed Trinity is a humbling experience for all. There are questions that will never be answered by man. The mystery of the Blessed Trinity basically puts men into their places, where men lacks the capacity to fathom the unfathomable.

God is real. Man is just so arrogant that most men fail to see God and recognize Him. The Blessed Trinity is so Divine that once man comprehends the mystery, joy in faith becomes overwhelming,

@Mamerto32 Thus the folly of man, to think he can play God.

@eileenleyva and man never realized that acceptance and submission to a Higher Power basically uplifted him. God can live without man, but man is nothing without God.

Well, I have read the whole Bible from Genesis to Revelation several times - or listened to it - and have never seen the word trinity mentioned.

I have not read Bible or for that matter any religious books full or in depth. I have just listened to few stories from here and there from different religious scriptures. I am not sure about "Trinity" in Bible. But Hinduism strongly believes in Trinity- Lord Brahma as Creator, Lord Vishnu as Preserver and Lord Mahesh ( or Shiva) as destructor. There is a strong faith that the balance in Nature is created by these three acting in sync and complete balance.

Thank you for telling about the Trinity in Hinduism. The Trinity here pertains to three distinct Lords acting to balance.
However, in Christian faith, Trinity refers to the three Persons of One God - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
