We as Christians try to understand all of God with the understanding of man.
Most often with a hint of Science etc.
The "Truth" is the more we think we understand God, the more we understand we know very little about his true nature.
We put our needs, understanding and concerns in our mind and try to formulate God for an answer.
What we do is mess with the formula (God) and wonder why we do not have our prayers answered etc?
God "is not" any equation man can formulate....
The "Abyss" is what man falls into when we try to formulate God.
We have counted him up as 1 or 3.
But we know very little about his true nature...
