Christians will defend the concept to the death even though 1) they can not explain it and 2) its not specifically set forth in the Bible but instead was a creation of the Council of Nicaea, some three hundred years after Christ to settle an on-going theological argument (about the relationship of the Messiah to God).
To be fair, it does stand to reason that the nature of an eternal, omnipotent, and omnipresent entity with the power to create entire universes on a whim would carry certain aspects which would be essentially unfathomable to a more limited human intellect.
Forgive me for making light here, but when you really get to bottom of things, Lovecraft's entire pantheon of "Old Gods" has absolutely nothing on "Yahweh" in terms of latent mind-breaking strangeness. There is very likely a reason, after all; why pretty much anyone who came anywhere near one of God's earthly manifestations in the Old Testament basically devolved into gibbering hysterics almost immediately. :lol:
