Further to my last post, [livejournal.com profile] madaussie and I were discussing the Exodus 4:24 situation; getting into a barroom brawl with God (no, really!)

The question is this; in that situation, imagine the whole Trinity has turned up. Who do you try and take down first? Your options are;

God.
Strengths: omniscience, omnipotence, smiting.
Weaknesses: arrogance, jealousy, obviously contradictory attributes.

Holy Spirit.
Strengths: can make you pregnant unexpectedly in some Gospel continuities.
Weaknesses: unknown, but seems kind of wussy.

Jesus.
Strengths: could turn all water in your body into wine.
Weaknesses: holes in wrists, ankles limit mobility. Can probably be kneed in balls.

If God's omnipresent and you toast him, does that leave you with anywhere left to stand? And how do you toast the bits of him that are inside you?

I'm not sure omnipresence implies everything is full of God-stuff. Gravity's omnipresent but, although we'd all float away, we aren't made of it.
