Dear readers,
I have already addressed the issue of Trinity on one of my post but in a superficial way, because I did not think could be of interest to my readers. The statistics of the site but it seems that post has attracted moderate interest. So I decided to be more specific on this issue. I dedicate this post to my German readers because they were more concerned than others to the topic of Trinity. Unfortunately I do not know German and to translate this post in your native language are forced to use Google Translation, but I hope you understand Italian. And if one of you know Italian well and wanted to send me (for free) a better translation, I would be grateful (but no reward). This post is not intended to prove the existence of God, but to demonstrate that it is rationally conceivable that God is triune and that Christianity is based on this idea.

Syllogism about God
Years ago, when I attended the course in modern philosophy at the State University of Milan, I attended a seminar on God The seminar was attended by many university professors, but only one student: I.
That day, I did not understand their speech. This is my fault, because obviously I was poorly trained in the field, but perhaps it was also the fault of language use is too specialized.
After the seminar, I thought that there should be an easier way to know God, this is also because of my faith in Christianity, a religion widespread in principle between fishermen and shepherds, and not among theologians and scholars: what would have been able to understand a fisherman com 'Simon Peter had learned from certain speeches?
If the origins of Christianity was so complicated that hardly think it would spread throughout the world. Yet it is in Christianity that we find the more complex and mysterious religious dogma, the Trinity and the Oneness of God is a real puzzle, because even the mind of a child and three are two distinct and irreconcilable mathematical numbers.
I thought, rarely, on these issues when it came to light: "We cannot force God to be known" It took me a little time to understand that although no one educated, intelligent, wise, could impose his will to God's knowledge
The problem was then overthrown by "God wants to be known by man?".
Let me clarify that I am referring to God is a personal principle of the Christian tradition, and never a concept or a substance. And 'the God of Christians and Jews: "One, the Creator, omnipotent, omniscient.
Moreover, these are the features that give you all the monotheistic religions, and I remember that the purpose of this post is not to prove the existence of God, but to show that God is rationally recognizable as triune and that this concept Christianity was born.
Where should we begin to prove it?
I made a syllogism: "If God is perfect, always work perfectly, so there are two possibilities. God will reveal himself, or God will hide perfectly well. "
The assumption that God is indifferent to appear or be hidden to men seems impossible and absurd, because it implies a lack of will of God This perceived lack of will would contradict the assumption that my syllogism that states that God is perfect, because if God had a will must be certain and not vague.
Since the purpose of this post this hypothesis would be insignificant, because no monotheistic religion says that man is indifferent to God
But if God is perfect, perfection is hidden, but if he was perfectly hidden, the man had no suspicion of its existence.
How can God leave traces? A perfect being does not leave tracks if you hide. God is not perfect? We humans, however say God does miracles and revelations. There are too many signs of God to be able to say that God wants to remain hidden from man.
So I think God wants to be known to man. If God is perfect will be presented perfectly! How can we think that God is imperfect in its teaching? If God is perfect, so will his teaching
Some might say that perhaps it is impossible to know God perfectly, but God is not omnipotent?
I believe that this syllogism is therefore correct: "If God is perfect, it works perfectly, then God will look perfect or God will hide perfectly."This adds syllogism, of course, nothing to our knowledge of God, but I think that would give a strong hope for religious people. In reality, we know that we have faith in God that one day I'll understand perfectly, because He is perfect and where our intelligence can not reach the perfection of God will arrive there.
I remember that this post was not written to prove the existence of God, but groped for a simple explanation of the Trinity.
My opinion is that atheism is not the natural condition of human beings but animals. Though animals provide evidence of intelligence and is now shown that even the most advanced are able to do small accounts, no animal has ever provided any evidence to practice a religion, even primitive. This is probably the biggest difference between men and animals, our ability to be interested in the transcendental. I think that the atheist has a mental condition of inferiority and not one of them boasts of major reason. I think if the animals have no concept of God is because God wanted to keep up with them perfectly.

In the first chapter I wrote that it is impossible to impose the human will to God Only God can decide if he wants to present himself to men. In history and in everyday life we find evidence that we suspect the existence of God and this means that God has not hidden to us poor ignorant. Therefore, even the suspicion of the existence of God must be granted by God does not mean that every man knows God perfectly.
IIo did not agree with the German philosopher Emmanuel Kant, Critique of Pure Reason, where he says: "Human reason is weighed down by reasons that can’t be accepted because it is the nature of reason itself, when it can not to answer, because beyond all power of human reason. "
Where does this certainty of Kant in the fact that the human mind is not powerful enough to satisfy those reasons?
The metaphysics of Kant was born when reason tries to ascend to verify the conditions for the existence of God, then human reason falls into contradictions that may also find that they must have had their cause in error in hidden somewhere, but do not find them, because the principles that you need, overcoming the limits of all experience do not allow more than the touchstone of experience .. "
Kant is therefore skeptical about the possibilities of human reason, but not all philosophers agree with him. Nicholas of Cusano wrote in The Idiot (1450): "The true science that leads to God more easily learned by the ignorant, rather than by scholars.
The philosophers of realism had complete confidence in the adequacy of reality and reason, and tended to identify the process of abstract thought with the process of creation of the world.
Giordano Bruno anticipated Kant when he wrote that God is beyond all sense and intellect. When Kant denies the possibility of metaphysical understanding of God also seems to deny the possibility of religion. The German philosopher forget that Christianity is based on Christ-God who came in the World? Christianity is the Christian experience of God, every church believes Jesus Christ, true God and of Christ, some men have lived and witnessed. Kant's doctrine is therefore anti-Christian. But I will not deny the importance of experience in the cognitive process, although I believe that God does not need experience to be perfect men. Even Leonardo da Vinci wrote that: "All our knowledge begins in experience."
We can also say with Kant that the experience of God is necessary to understand God but we must understand that only God can give us this experience.
We must then ask: "How can God give us his" experience? ".God became man. God is not a concept reached by reasoning, nor a substance reproducible in the laboratory. The God of Christians, Jews, Muslims, is a being.
But man cannot understand a being superior or inferior to himself. If God was a kind of superman, how can we tell? If God came among men, but God is different from them, then God is a mystery, and his coming to knowledge would be useless.
God must be a man until the end, born like a man, grow, speak, feel, love, even die like a man, to be understood by humans.
One thing, in fact, is to understand a concept, but another is to understand a being.
This God-man who would come into the world to allow us to have direct experience of God, however, could not be the one and only God
If, in fact, there was only the God-Man, only in a certain place and time between us would cease to exist the infinite God who is at anytime, anywhere. But this is impossible, because the infinite God, the God-Man would be the incarnation of God, because the infinite God does not exist anymore.
The God-Man could not be the incarnation of God no longer existed. Therefore there must be at least two God, a God in every place and at any time and from a God-man in a place and time.
To have an imperfect picture of how this can happen, you can draw a parallel with mathematics.
The set of natural numbers is infinite, this is how God The man, however, to count, that the experience with mathematics, use numbers as a unit.
The infinity of natural numbers, however, is nothing more than endlessly repeat unit 1.
The number is divisible by an infinite number of times before, so it is an infinite, but we can still use it to gain experience in the calculation.
The number 1 is like the God-man..
In order to give man the knowledge of God, however, sufficient knowledge of the Man-God? Unfortunately no, you could say that the Man-God is a necessary but not sufficient to know God
In fact, no man would ever be able to distinguish God from this God-man.
The problem is that the God-Man as he is truly a man would be indistinguishable from any other man.
If we see a lot of beautiful pink roses, let's say that it is more beautiful, more fragrant, the better, but we cannot say that this is not just a rose without lying.
To this I can say that the Man-God is a necessary but not sufficient to know God, God and man, but God shows us that we cannot recognize.
So even if the Man-God alone can reveal God, we can know it? Someone will have attest that God is the God-man ..
But this witness to testify that the God-Man and God are the same "person" must be God himself in all aspects. How could, in fact, the witness does not know God if God is also the witness? For this there must be a third God, then a witness must be of the same nature of God and the God-Man.
This is my explanation of the SS. Trinity: "Only God can be known to man and should be known as Man-God, without ceasing to be God that finally, as a witness to testify that God, the God-Man and the Witness are one God.
In this short treatise on the SS. Trinity have started from the syllogism according to which: "If God is perfect then God will show us perfectly."
This syllogism means that if even the suspicion of God is God's will and that we should be optimistic because we believe that one day God will show man in his prime.
I remember that the purpose of this post is not to show the existence of God, but only to show that it is possible to conceive of God as One and Three at the same time, not to surrender to the mysteries, but following the reasoning.
Precise once again that I refer to God as a personal principle and not as a substance or a philosophical concept.
Starting from these points, I wondered what God can use the method to make themselves known to man. So I studied the modern western philosophers, and I discovered that many of them considered the experience essential to enable any knowledge.
They then came to the conclusion that God wants to be first to admit he had the experience of self and then testify that this experience was true.
But how could "imagine" this explanation of the SS. Trinity without having had experience, if it touches only the burden to God to give us your knowledge?
Since you already have in me the idea that God is Triune, I conclude that God has revealed to us. In fact, if this is a characteristic of God, I could have learned only from God or a witness of God
So is the story that I must seek a doctrine that states that the coming of the God-Man and the Witness.
Of course it is only in Christianity that I find. Some might argue that it is in Christianity that I find in Christianity that I took. True, but it is in Christianity that I found a rational explanation of the SS. Trinity, in fact, Christians speak of Dogma and the Mystery of the SS. Trinity. But I must explain the rational and empirical doctrine, explaining that I was never recognized by anyone.
Searching through the history books you will discover that faith in God is the religion of Israel, Judaism.
It 's interesting to note that although the idea of one God is not more complicated than that of many gods in one place on earth had this idea for the victory over paganism before the spread of Christianity: in Israel.
It 's also interesting to note that a man born in Israel has always considered God by billions of people around the world: Jesus Christ the Nazarene.
This is clear in the symbol which is recited in every Catholic Mass for centuries. "We believe in one God, the Father Almighty, Creator of heaven and earth, of all things seen and unseen We believe in one Lord Jesus Christ, only Son of God, born of the Father before all ages. God from God, Light from Light, true God from true God .... ... "
The Man-God is therefore a real man. This means that he was born, lived and died, because there are men immortal. It will then look at the life of the people who will know better the God-Man.
Now, we know that every man is born to a mother. Even the God-Man must therefore have a mother, but what features should have this mom?
The first feature that you should have is to truly be a woman and not a supernatural creature like an angel or a goddess. This is because the God-Man is truly a man and must have a human mother.
The second characteristic is that this woman should be born in a place where worship is professed as a monotheistic God and a man among men who do not know the oneness of God is meaningless.
The third characteristic is that the Mother of God-man should be a virgin. This is because there can be no doubt that the Man-God is not carnal son of a man created. You cannot, in fact, even if the God-Man is the son of a sexual act of God because if God were flesh, would have the God-Man.
The virginity of the Mother of God is attested in the Gospels, for example in Luke 1.34: "How can this be, since I do not know man?" Says Mary at the Annunciation of the angel Gabriel.
I remember being the Man-God is truly God, He is truly human, because only the God-man who shows us the qualities of God as the God-Man is the son of a virgin, God is "son of the Virgin. "
In this testimony we find in the Gospels, for example in John 12.48: "Whoever sees me sees him who sent me."
But we know that the man may be born male or female, what sex is, therefore, the Man-God?
Could only be male, because nature was created by God But God chose to give birth to only females, not males.
If the Virgin Mary could give birth to a daughter, this woman-goddess is the means to know the Goddess, but this is absurd. In nature created by God, in fact, every child has a father and a mother. Thus was born the God-Man, like the Virgin Mother and God as Father. The woman was a virgin goddess, but as a mother and as mother goddess. Then the two mothers, but not the father. The male person then would have no way of knowing this goddess, and, in fact, mother and son during a pregnancy, the man is never with a woman outside of pregnancy.
Therefore, it is only with the pregnancy of a male that she could be with a man.
This is also attested in the Gospels and is one of the most mysterious passages. In the Gospel of Luke, an angel appears to Zacharias and announces that he found favor with God and his wife give birth to a son, John the Baptist.
Therefore, it is only with the pregnancy of a male that she could be with a man.
This is also attested in the Gospels and is one of the most mysterious passages. In the Gospel of Luke, an angel appears to Zacharias and announces that he found favor with God and his wife give birth to a son, John the Baptist.
Zachary, however, is old and does not understand how this could be possible, then asks the angel (Luke 1:18): "How do I know that I'm already old and my wife is advanced in years?". The angel then gets mad in disbelief of Zechariah and does it in silence until the day of the birth of John.
This is a famous passage in the Gospel, but it is certainly best known of the Annunciation of the Archangel Gabriel to the Virgin Mary. When Gabriel told Mary that she will bear a son, she is astonished and replies, "How can it be because I do not know man?". Gabriel, however, not to punish Mary for her disbelief, but it proves very caring with her.
The Catholic Church interprets this discrepancy between the treatment of Zechariah and the best to Mary, saying that Mary is obedient to the will of God is true, as Zach obeyed, but then someone would disobey God? In fact, the sentences of Mary and Zechariah express exactly the same degree of awe. Why, then, shall be punished Zechariah and Mary comforted? The reason is simple, she is already pregnant when the God-Man gets the Annunciation. For this Gabriel cannot and does not want to punish your disbelief, in fact, Gabriel has certainly not power to punish the mother of his This also explains why God saw the angel greets her saying (Lk 1:28) "Hail full of grace, the Lord is with thee. " That is very different from saying, "If you want to give birth, there will be full of grace, the Lord will be with you."
Another explanation for the beginning of my SS. Trinity is that it is impossible to distinguish the God-man from any other man, and then recognize it as if God did not see the Holy Spirit.
In all the Gospels are proof of this and often incredulous apostles of Christ's nature as God is the famous episode of St. Thomas does not believe in the resurrection of Jesus, St. Thomas knew the omnipotence of God, I certainly believed in the resurrection of God , so it is logical to think that St. Thomas did not consider the true God, Jesus, first rose again.
In Luke, however, is the most convincing proof of this theory.
In Luke 03:21 Jesus was baptized by John the Baptist, then the heavens open and the Spirit of God descending from heaven like a dove upon Jesus A voice from heaven says, "You are my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased" .
The reason may be only doctrinal, St. Luke wanted to be understood that, at the same time when you do not have the physical vision of the Man-God with the Holy Spirit (dove) can no longer distinguish the God-Man Jesus really any other man.
Then, once past the vision of Christ with the Holy Spirit, John the Baptist back from the truth with doubt, insecurity from the certainty, from light to dark. He recalls the events but can not be sure of this. So, Jesus and John is not only to search for another man, but remains in doubt.
That is why Jesus says in Luke 7.28: "I tell you, among those born of women there is no one greater than John, but the smallest of the kingdom of God is greater than he."
The smallest of the kingdom of God are baptized by fire, that the Holy Spirit.
So why the Man-God should not be directly with the Holy Spirit who bears witness that the God-Man and God are one and that only through the Man-God we can experience and then to really know God?
The God-Man to be truly human is to be in all, this means that in addition to be born, grow, speak, breathe, must also suffer and die. There are, in fact, men who suffer and not die, and if the God-man was immortal, it would not be a man. This is the God-man should die, but there is also another reason. If the God-Man was directly with the witness, the man had seen God, and God knows I want to see what's really looking at the God-man who knows the true witness to the Holy Spirit. What merit would then men to know God? Wicked and only then would the same problem. Therefore it is necessary that the God-Man and the Witness are separated to allow the man to go ahead with the testimony of the coming of the God-Man. Then, when all the witnesses have had the merit, the God-Man will return to the world along with the witness.
This too is reflected in the Gospels, Jesus says: "It is to your advantage that I go, because if I go, the Paraclito will not come to you, but if I go, I will send him."
Paraclito is the Witness, the Holy Spirit.
The witness could not testify, however, the God-Man, if it were not dead yet, because God is alive, so the first witness of the Paraclito is required for the resurrection of the Man-God. This is why Christ died, resurrected and ascended to heaven. Christ died as a man rises because it is the God of the living, send the witness so that people can bear witness to Him, and be actively involved in the salvation of humanity.

Dear readers,
We must be optimistic and believe that God will reveal himself to us completely, because this is the plan in the world. But we must do our part to spread the secret of the SS. Trinity among peoples. Can any of you send this message to friends and translated, those who can not leave their property to the general spring.
In the name of Christ our God.

There are, in fact, men who suffer and not die, and if the God-man was immortal, it would not be a man. This is the God-man should die, but there is also another reason. If the God-Man was directly with the witness, the man had seen God, and God knows I want to see what's really looking at the God-man who knows the true witness to the Holy Spirit. What merit would then men to know God? Wicked and only then would the same problem. Therefore it is necessary that the God-Man and the Witness are separated to allow the man to go ahead with the testimony of the coming of the God-Man. Then, when all the witnesses have had the merit, the God-Man will return to the world along with the witness.
This too is reflected in the Gospels, Jesus says: "It is to your advantage that I go, because if I go, the Paraclito will not come to you, but if I go, I will send him."
Paraclito is the Witness, the Holy Spirit.
The witness could not testify, however, the God-Man, if it were not dead yet, because God is alive, so the first witness of the Paraclito is required for the resurrection of the Man-God. This is why Christ died, resurrected and ascended to heaven. Christ died as a man rises because it is the God of the living, send the witness so that people can bear witness to Him, and be actively involved in the salvation of humanity.

Dear readers,
We must be optimistic and believe that God will reveal himself to us completely, because this is the plan in the world. But we must do our part to spread the secret of the SS. Trinity among peoples. Can any of you send this message to friends and translated, those who can not leave their property to the general spring.
In the name of Christ our God.
