Because its a lie!!! Isaiah 9:6 says that the Son will be called the 'Mighty God, Everlasting Father"! We teach the Father was manifested in the Son because that's what the Bible says.

Re: Explaining the Godhead to our children
There is nothing more in this world that i despise more than the doctrine of the 'trinity'...of course television is not far down the line from that.

I can honestly say I don't despise it at all. It would be a fairly accurate doctrine if our modern day term of persons matched the earlier definition.

Maybe the writers of the bible was wrong by using the Father and the Son and their separation and distinction as examples?
The NT is chock full of such examples.

Re: Explaining the Godhead to our children
It's sad to me that someone would have a negative view of the Trinity, which should be only a positive thing; a shame people have ruined it for some. See that God has many names, and seek where you agree.

When the doctrine of the trinity is taken to it's conclusion, the result is polytheism.

Those examples are relational. Jesus is the "fullness of the Godhead". He fullfilled it all. He revealed himself as Father, Son, and Spirit. And he doesnt have to be three people fulfill those roles.

God the Father and Jesus, His Son, interacted with each other separately and distinctly throughout the gospels, with each having separate wills. They did have a relationship as between a Father and His Son.

Re: Explaining the Godhead to our children
The same way our flesh and spirit interact. I will not discuss this further with you but I will pray for you.

Our flesh and spirit do not interact as Father and Son. Our spirit isn't our Father with our flesh being our Son.
I appreciate your prayers.
