AboutRev C.Brian Ross Expertise I am happy to offer answers to anyone with a question that refers to the Christian Faith in its widest possible sense. I believe that the Bible is the living Word of God, and seek to base all of my life on its teaching. I also have some knowledge of some of the cults, and of Islam and Judaism. Of course, my answers are just one man's thoughts, and I would always advise a questioner to check with others, and with the Word of God.
Experience Served as a full-time parish minister in Scotland for about six years, and then spent the last thirty as a teacher (now 'retired') of Religious Education in Secondary Comprehensive schools (ages 11-17) while continuing my own preaching and teaching ministry. I also believe that learning is a life-time process, and have recently completed a Master's degree in Divinity.
Organizations Former Presenter on Revival FM - a local Christian, community radio station, broadcasting in west central Scotland, and online at revival.fm Involved with a number of organisations that support Christians who are currently suffering persecution in some 70 countries around the world.

Question Good afternoon. I an a R/C from Bombay. India. My questions are as under:
1Do Hindus believe in Trinity?
2:Trinitarian character of God is direct and inevitable consequence of God!s nature as love.Pl: explain to me. Gratia James N
Answer Hi James
I was going to tick the box that would have informed you that this question is outwith my area of expertise! However, I realised that that applied only to the first of your two questions. I have never fully understood Hinduism myself,and am not, therefore, competent to answer questions such as the one you ask. Sorry!
As far as your second question is concerned, there is definitely a relationship between the Trinitarian nature of the Godhead, and the essential nature of the Triune God which is, indeed, love (I Jn.4:8 inter al)
May I be so bold as to suggest that you log on to my audio-message blog at www.revcbross.blogspot.com where you will find a message on the Trinity. As I recall, it only lasts about 25 mins and I think that you might find it helpful.
