An interesting perspective on the Trinity

One way to understand the Trinity, is to think about how three men can point to a house on a street and claim ownership of the house ("This is my house") in 3 different ways.

The first man is the builder ("I built this house")
The second man is the buyer ("I bought this house") and
The third man is the dweller ("I live in this house").

This is how the three-in-one God interacts with His children:

1. As their Creator - the builder (God the Father)
2. As their Redeemer - the buyer (God the Son)
3. As the indwelling Presence in them - the dweller (God the Holy Spirit)

This was part of the insights gleaned from a message by Minister David Pawson titled “The Character of God - Trinity, Unity
