The Invisible, Visible God

 

 

Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature (Colossians 1:15)

 

The Trinity, or the triune nature of God, is a difficult concept to grasp even for Christians. It is no wonder that Jehovah’s Witnesses and Muslims accuse Trinitarian Christians of polytheism.

And after Cain murdered Abel, whom did he have to fear? These are the kinds of questions cynics, critics and scoffers pose, and we need to have an answer. I hope this helps.
