All true believers are Trinitarians. The word "Trinity" is not in the Bible. He is not the love of God in the sense of being Himself formally the love by which God loves; but in loving Himself God breathes forth this subsistent term. Moreover, notwithstanding the neuter form of the word (pneuma), the pronoun used in His regard is the masculine ekeinos. The arguments of the Greek Fathers frequently presuppose this philosophy as their basis; and unless it be clearly grasped, reasoning which on their premises is conclusive will appear to us invalid and fallacious. Nestorianism This is significant because if Jesus is two natures, but one Person, then Mary is indeed the Mother of the Person of Jesus, who is the Person of the Son. Petav., "De Trin", V, viii). Jesus is referred to as the second Person in the Trinity, because in the "Trinitarian formula" used in the Great Commission in Matthew 28:16, Jesus, the Son, is mentioned second: "Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Similar teaching occurs in Ecclesiasticus 24, in a discourse which Wisdom is declared to utter in "the assembly of the Most High", i. e. in the presence of the angels. And when theologians speak of God without special mention of a Person, conceive Him under this aspect. It is admirably adapted to assist us to a fuller comprehension of the fundamental doctrine of the Christian religion.
The Scripture tells us that there is only one God, and that he is in three persons. But here, mere specific unity is out of the question. ", I, xxxi; Basil, On the Holy Spirit 38; Cyril of Alexandria, "De Trin. "He who fixed the heavens in place has been fixed in place. ", III, v) all declare that it is possible to assign peremptory reasons why God should be both One and Three. The argument is ingenious, but hardly convincing; and the same may be said of a somewhat similar piece of reasoning regarding the name Spirit (I:36:1). Now the Person of the Son, Who is the Word of God, has a certain common agreement with all creatures, because the word of the craftsman, i. e. his concept, is an exemplar likeness of whatever is made by him. In Scripture there is as yet no single term by which the Three Divine Persons are denoted together. Finally after His resurrection, He revealed the doctrine in explicit terms, bidding them "go and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost" (Matthew 28:18). Photo credit: Aaron Burden/Unsplash. The Father is not the Son or the Spirit. Remy Lafort, S. T. D., Censor. Or, again, the actual Creation of the world might be termed the creation of the Word, since it takes place according to the ideas which exist in the Word.
Yet the meaning of these authors is clear. Using the terms first, second, and third in relation to the Persons of the Trinity does not mean there are different levels of importance among those Persons. In effect, God the Father says, "Let me offer you what you were really seeking, but sought inordinately. " In this Trinity of Persons the Son is begotten of the Father by an eternal generation, and the Holy Spirit proceeds by an eternal procession from the Father and the Son. Nor can it be objected that the notions of Christians on the subject were vague and confused, and that their liturgical forms reflect this frame of mind. Isaiah talked about the Holy Spirit in another verse. As applied to the Son, the name, he holds, signifies that He proceeds from the Father as the term of an intellectual procession, in a manner analogous to that in which a concept is generated by the human mind in all acts of natural knowledge.
415) develops it at length. The existence of relations in the Godhead may be immediately inferred from the doctrine of processions, and as such is a truth of Revelation. Well we are beginning to establish that. Amongst polemical writers we may refer to Irenaeus ( Against Heresies I. The Greeks invariably speak as though, in all the Divine works, each Person exercises a separate office. The results to which they led, though not to be reckoned as part of the dogma, were found to throw great light upon the mystery, and to be of vast service in the objections urged against it. We derive God's eternal name, YHWH, from verse 14, which reads, "I am who I am. Now it is not to be supposed that the Montanists had accepted any novel teaching from the Catholic Church since their secession in the middle of the second century. The first area is concerned with the world at large.
When, for instance, we say that the Son possesses filiation and spiration the terms seem to suggest that these are forms inherent in Him as in a subject. He understands the term God as signifying the whole Trinity, and not, as do the other Greeks, the Father alone: "When we pray, whether we say 'Kyrie eleison', or 'O God aid us', we do not miss our mark: for we include the whole of the Blessed Trinity in one Godhead" (De Trin., II, xix). Divine attributes are affirmed of Him. Pius IX reprobated their opinions on more than one occasion (Denzinger, 1655 sq., 1666 sq., 1709 sq. It is manifest that a dogma so mysterious presupposes a Divine revelation. For this reason, the Son, who is the Word, who is Truth itself, becomes incarnate.
Clement's Epistle to the Corinthians 58-59; Justin, First Apology 67). From among the apologists we may note Justin, First Apology 6; Athenagoras, A Plea for the Christians 12. To Whom with the all holy, the good and lifegiving Spirit be glory now and always, forever and ever. The Socinian writers of the seventeenth century (e. g. Sand, "Nucleus historiae ecclesiastic", Amsterdam, 1668) asserted that the language of the early Fathers in many passages of their works shows that they agreed not with Athanasius, but with Arius. From the way this term is used, it becomes clear that the angel of the Lord is YHWH himself. Even these exalted titles did not lead the Jews to recognize that the Saviour to come was to be none other than God Himself. In my opinion, the arguments above are wrong-headed. Jesus said: Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost ( Holy Spirit) (Matthew 28:19).
In view of these facts the opinion of those theologians seems the sounder who regard this explanation of the procession simply as a theological opinion of great probability and harmonizing well with revealed truth. Anselm's error was due not to Rationalism, but to too wide an application of the Augustinian principle "Crede ut intelligas". Indeed, of all revealed truths this is the most impenetrable to reason. B. Obstinate (the person continues in the error of judgment without seeking further to learn the truth. All Western theologians teach that creation, like all God's external works, proceeds from Him as One: the separate Personalities do not enter into consideration. It is urged that since there are Three Persons there must be three self-consciousnesses: but the Divine mind ex hypothesi is one, and therefore can possess but one self-consciousness; in other words, the dogma contains an irreconcilable contradiction. As we continue to await the fast-approaching Feast of Holy Christmas, it is good to ponder some aspects of the Incarnation. "The Blessed Trinity. " I do not think this was a unilateral decision though, with the Father ordering and the Son obeying.
But, as I say above, this is wrong and not in keeping with classical Christology. For this question the reader is referred to HOLY GHOST. The Lord's Day, Sunday, is dedicated to His Resurrection. Errors concerning the Trinity and the distinct personality and Godhead of our Lord Jesus Christ are abundant. Some of these, however, admitted that a knowledge of the mystery was granted to the Prophets and saints of the Old Dispensation (Epiphanius, "Haer.
Why should we not be allowed to say (or sing) what the Scriptures explicitly teach? Thus Athanasius, Basil, Gregory Nazianzen, Gregory of Nyssa, and the Fathers of the Council of Sardica, in their synodical letter, all treat our Lord's words, teaches "The Father is greater than I" as having reference to His Godhead (cf. And Jesus reached out his arms and hands to be nailed to the cross, making atonement for all of humanity. We sing it in the concrete, of the Son of God who loved us and died for us (Gal. Indeed it would seem that the great majority of the Greek Fathers understood logos not of the mental thought; but of the uttered word (Athanasius, Dionysius of Alexandria, ibid. Thus we say that a king sends a messenger, and that a tree sends forth buds. "So said the Lord, the King of Israel and his Redeemer the Lord of Hosts.
