I found this on this popular Nigerian Pentecostal preacher's website. Go here.
I'd be embarrased to if I were a trinitarian.

The yolk is NOT "the egg". The White part is not "The egg" and the shell is not "The egg"...they are each only 1 third of the egg and it takes all three together to form an egg...

Taken logically that would make each person NOT "The God". That would make them only parts, like a puzzle...that only when put together equal a whole God
