How do I describe Jesus to a three-year-old?

As a parent, figure out what language your child understands.

Then use it.

On the other hand, I am not so unfamiliar with dissociative personality disorder,and have come across it, in the religious context, with Carolyn Bramhall's book, Am I a good girl yet. Which was her recovery from over 100 alternate personalities due to ritual satanic abuse as a child.

It's not uncanny that Ancestral Generational Dissociation (fragmented soul parts from broken hearts of ancestors) manifest in the same way, and as gen curses, ...which are biblical - something you don't believe in. Hey ho, there's nothing like ignorance.

God bless you.
Learning about Jesus and His love would have helped this girl, not ritual satanic abuse, no wonder she had such problems.

Just having a loving rational parent who kept her safe and didn't harm her as a child would have been good start. Emotional and physical abuse of children has also been perpetrated by devout religious parents in the name of Jesus and 'love'.

Since when is worshiping the devil a devout religious experience in the name of Jesus?

What's the rush? At 3, he won't understand anything, nor is he likely to retain what you tell him.

I believe it is parallel to child molestation by priests in the name of Jesus, Duggar sex in the name of Jesus, BILLION DOLLAR wealth in the name of Jesus, and the my 2nd amendment rights trump the murdered children in the name of Jesus....

True, but then you are ignoring how much knowing Jesus has done for the world. Think how things were before Jesus came to earth. Human sacrifice and all the human suffering. Don't blame the evil found in fallen man on the Son of God, He came to redeem the world.

He isn't too young and he will retain it if you keep talking about it. Would you wait to introduce him to his grand parents? Jesus can be the same, a part of our family. That is what Jesus wants.
