Triune God, modalism, or are you heretic?

I will reiterate the question that I raised on the berean website a few weeks ago. Could the problem be that neither the orthodox teaching of the Trinity, nor Witness Lee's teaching regarding the Triune God are logically coherent theologies? If so, we can, at best, hold that the Trinity/Triune God is a symbol for a divine mystery and paradox that can be believed but not explained or understood. Perhaps the mistake we make is to look upon the Christian faith a doctrine to believe in intellectually, rather than a mystery to be entered into and participated in. If it is the latter, then arguing over who's teaching on the Trinity/Triune God is right is foolish.
