>>13671278This is how I view the trinity:
There is God, the Father, a source of light, energy, yes life itself. He is infinite, without beginning or end, perfect and whole. He emmits light/life. That is the holy spirit, through which everything grows and lives. From this light Christ was formed, begotten, the First in creation, having no end, and within him all things are created and hold together. As such they are all the same, except that the son is somewhat limited (as he states only the Father knows when the son returns showing that Christ is not allknowing, or how He said that all his works are done by the Father and not himself implying that not the Son is all powerful, or how Christ told us that the Father is bigger than Him, despite the Father and Son being one. They all are of the same essence. However you cant put the infinite Creator into the finite creation, it just doesnt fit. So he created a "lesser" form of himself that indeed fits into the creation to directly interact with and redeem us all.
Note that I really dont like describing Christ as a "lesser" version, as for us they are to be considered one, the words of the Father are those that the Son speaks, and what the son speaks and does is the will of the Father too, and distinguishing them in that sense just takes glory from the Son, whose meant to bring glory to the Father through his own glory, meaning we take glory from the Father as well, but I dont have better terms to describe it.
