You are trying to understand the Trinity. Too many people get themselves into trouble doing this. I would advise something simplier like eschatology.

Go ahead and try — it is mankind’s duty to try to understand the infinite Trinity with our finite intelligence even if, after a lifetime of trying, we only scratch the surface of this Mystery.

Knock repeatedly and doors will open.

The Trinity is understandable. So is God’s plan of Salvation.

The Trinity is SO understandable, scripture says it’s part of General Revelation.

Read Romans 1:20.

Um, no I am not trying to understand a relationship that humans are not equipped to understand. What I do understand is that we were created to serve Him, the Father and the Father alone as the Son served the Father alone.
