God could share his love within the Trinity
God doesn’t need to create finite beings with limited great-making properties that degrade the overall quality in order to share love and to have relationships.
Moreover, because Mr. Andrews is asserting that the reason for God’s creation act is because God desires to share his love, such an act is ultimately for God’s own benefit – in order that his gift- giving desire be fulfilled. But, being a trinity of three persons, God doesn’t need to create finite beings with limited great-making properties that degrade the overall quality in order to share love and to have relationships. So, according to Mr. Andrews, The reason God decided to place a black stain on the overall quality of what used to be a perfect world was to achieve something that could have easily been done – and done much better mind you – within the rich, relational bounds of the essentially perfect persons of the Holy Trinity – a method that would have preserved the overall quality rather than degraded it and wouldn’t frame God as preferring imperfect relationships to perfect ones. Everything about this response is a rejection of God’s initial maximal greatness.
