In Genesis we read: "And God said, Let Us make man in Our image, after Our likeness."
Our Teacher says: "The eternal Elohim makes man. The name is in the plural; but this plurality of Spirit does not imply more than one God, nor does it imply three persons in one. It relates to the Trinity of Life, Truth, and Love." (SCIENCE AND HEALTH, page 442.)
One of the most perplexing problems ever presented to the civilized man relates to the Godhead. The attempt, made by the Church Fathers of the fourth century, to set forth a correct and complete exposition of the tripersonality of God, contradicts reason and common-sense. Absolute perfection will not accommodate itself to limitation. Hence a limited perception divides and subdivides the Infinite; and, as the sum total, we have had wrought out for our acceptance a trinity of gods.
