THE (first) PERSON

These metaphors, i still cry out. i have already shared about the second and the first person. it would do more harm than good if i did not consider the first person- the person.
The person of God who is God the father, is the most intriguing but unravellable person to discuss. here the is-not of the metaphor is most distinct. how will i deal with this? do i have any grounds by which to claim understanding on She/He or It.

From discursing the third person, i tried to show that nothing stands in my way to conclude and say that S/He/It is matter and all that trascends it. But He/She/It is a being indipendent of all else yet all else flows from S/He/It.

How does that sound in the face of the proclaimed i.e God the father the son and the holy spirit. He/she/It is immanenence and trascendence that moves all that appears to us in our proximity and all that eludes us.

It occurs to me that i have to accept my humanity. Contigent i am, let God be God. and with my limited language rooted in contigency, what metaphor will catch the face of God. God the father, the son and the holy spirit does but alot is to be desired.

He/she/it is mystery, a presence, an absence and a call. Jesus captured this more than many religeous leaders of his time. Is that to say we can eguate him with He/She/ It? - i am yet to tell.

And his spirit is the immanence and the trascendence that touches our souls that calls on our souls. Does it mean that every claim that every human being makes in the name of The holy spirit is actually His revelation? How then shall we understand God as revealing himself?
