LAW OF NON CONTRADICTION
Which states, that contradictory propositions cannot both be true at the same time and in the same sense.Does Christians Trinity Violates It
The Orthodox view in Christianity is that the Father is God, The Son is God, And the Holy Spirit is God. On the surface this looks like a Logical Contradiction but that is not the Case I will show you what I mean.God = the Father
God = the Son
God = the Holy Spirit
The Father ≠ the Son
The Father ≠ the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit ≠ the Son
We don't view God as by the persons in the Trinity but rather by the Godhead is why God can be 3 in Unity in a Godhead because God's fundamental realities(hypostasis) are all one in the Godhead ad intra. God is a being with 1 mind who thinks himself in existence Ad intra, which means he begotted his perfected image in the essence not outside it. When we reference the Holy Spirit we state that his power and love is out-poured on creation, which shows the ontological dependence they have for one-another in the Godhead. The Son is the image, The Father is the Thinker, The Holy Spirit is the Love and Power of God out-poured on Creation these 3 isn't 3 outside one but 3 of 1. That keeps the Law of Non-contradiction consistent with this because we refer to God as a trinity not a person.
Does Christian Hypostatic Union Violates it
I constantly get in heated discussions concerning this with Muslims, they believe God logically can't be Man and God because God is outside eternity and Men is inside eternity. On the contrary, when we bring up the Hypostatic Union, we understand that God is eternal and we are not but; we do not in any circumstance state Jesus couldn't be Man and God logically. I purpose an explanation that Jesus can be both Man and God if he was omnipresent and was composite in the Unity with God and Man. I presume Christ who is omnipresent never was confounded in eternity, when he came to Earth but rather, he was composite in the sense he had two natures. Christ divine nature wasn't composite and unlimited while, his human nature was Christ being composite keeps the Hypostatic Union consistent with the law of non-contradiction an example would be,Wave–particle duality which is a concept in particle physics that ascribes two seemingly contradictory traits to a single object. Similarly, the same with the Hypostatic Union. This is how the Hypostatic Union stays Logical God bless.Law of Identity
Everything is the same as itself; or a statement cannot not remain the same and change its truthvalue.
Does the Trinity Contradict it
According to Muslim scholars, and Unitarians the Trinity breaks the law of identity I would like to answer that by saying we believe God is collectively the Father, the Son, and The Holy Spirit. God is so conceptualized, is three (or that the three persons, so conceptualized, are one). The divine portion of reality can be conceptualized as three persons, and as one person, but not, onto-logically speaking, as four persons because the three persons together are the “fourth” person. we must be think of the same divine portion of reality, when we are in regards to the Godhead always. This is consistent to the Law of Identity because numerical predication's in the sense of reality can always come consistent to a singular predication when we explain it in regards to reality. So yes Identities can come in numerical form if it's in regards to a collective of persons in a singularity of essence.
God = the Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit
The Father ≠ the Son
The Father ≠ the Holy Spirit
The Holy Spirit ≠ the Son
