It's been said that "anyone who preaches on the Trinity for more than three minutes will likely lapse into heresy." And this because the Trinity is a mystery we can name - but cannot fully comprehend. As soon as we begin speaking about the Trinity, human language, inadequate for revealing, let alone explaining, this mystery, opens us to making statements that are neither true nor reflective of more than 2,000 years of faith and Church teaching.
Our Lutheran friends have produced a short, lighthearted and entertaining video that explains this quite well.
And I wonder if any of you will hear one or more of these heretical metaphors preached in a homily this weekend!
