Different points of view
We were discussing different views on God in Junior Church yesterday. I like to use the analogy of the blind men and an elephant when talking about this: one man feels the trunk and says “an elephant is like a snake”, the second feels the leg and says “an elephant is like a tree” whilst the third feels the tail and says “an elephant is like a rope”. All of them are right, but none of them really knows what an elephant is like. We all have a different view of God but none of us sees the complete picture.
