The Trinity is difficult to understand. As pastors and teachers try to break down the concept in order to teach, analogies are often deployed. Some liken the Trinity to a three-leafed clover, others to the three possible states of waters (solid, liquid, gas). But are these analogies helpful? Do they reflect the God of Scripture? In this episode, Pastors Brandon and Zac show that all human analogies actually teach an ancient Trinitarian heresy rather than the God of the Bible. This being the case, human analogies ought to be rejected.
