sets of 2 little paradigm

I decided to resurrect a paradigm that I developed about a year ago (prior to blogging)
It organizes 4 Christian things that come in sets of two.
Really, the first three are all the same. The only correlates communion with the larger dual concept which I have broken down into three other things.

Past Ongoing/future
Justification/Salv Sanctification Needs of Man
Atonement/Just Adoption Work of God in us
Justice/guilt Relationship to God Justice functions
Body of Christ Blood of Christ Communion

God had a plan when he made the universe, so I bet he had a plan when he designed our salvation too.

model of the trinity

me and my bro were talking recently and came up with a paradigm to describe the trinity.
God the father is god, the center of it all, indescribably using any dimensional constraints (because he's infinite). The holy spirit is the infinitely powerful manifestation/arm of God in the spiritual realm. Jesus Christ the son of man is God manifested in physical form, and when he was on earth he was also fully filled with the holy spirit.

There's no saying we're right, but it makes sense. I bet God doesn't mind when his children wonder and attempt to understand his amazing properties.

By the way, this paradigm of the trinity takes the spiritual realm as another set of dimensions. Angels would be in those dimensions, but God the father would be greater than even those parameters. Say, perhaps, angels share our time dimension (maybe), but have their own dimensions of space and material. Who knows?
Mind you this isn't like alternate reality time-warp stuff. This is like string-theory extra dimensions, like a fourth dimension of space, like scientifically describable if we could interact with the spiritual dimensions.
