THE UNITY IN TRINITY

“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God the Father and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all,” (2 Cor 13:13). 

There are many mysteries in the Christian faith, one of which has to do with the nature of God. How can we understand God who is described in the Bible as both the one true God and the God we know as Father, Son and Holy Spirit?

There is one Father, not three Fathers; one Son, not three Sons; one Holy Spirit, not three Holy Spirits. In this Trinity none is before, or after another; none is greater, or less than another. The whole three Persons are coeternal, and coequal. The Unity in Trinity, and the Trinity in Unity, is to be worshipped and glorified.

We are to baptise “in the name of the Father, and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,” thereby bringing people into a direct relationship with God as we believe in Him:
First, we learn to believe in God the Father, who has created us and all the World.
Secondly, in God the Son who redeems us and the whole world. Thirdly, in God the Holy Spirit, who Sanctifies us and all the people of God.

The Holy Spirit is always with us, so it will help us to fulfill mission of Christ. By His Spirit we can bring the Gospel to everyone and use what the Father gave us for the well-being of others.
