The Cross and the Holy Trinity

“God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself, not imputing their trespasses to them” (2 Corinthians 5:19)

“And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent the Son as Savior of the world.” (1 John 4:14)

“But if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead dwells in you, He who raised Christ from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit who dwells in you.” (Romans 8:11)

The Nature of Reality

 

The Trinity and Human Being

“To say that there are ‘many human beings’ is a common abuse of language. Granted there is a plurality of those who share in the same human nature ... but in all of them, humanity is one.” — Gregory of Nyssa, That There Are Not Three Gods

Through Him We Come to the Father

“And if I go and make ready a place for you, I will come again and take you to be with me, so that where I am you may be too. And you know the way where I am going.”

Thomas said, “Lord, we don’t know where you are going. How can we know the way?”

Jesus replied, “I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you have known me, you will know my Father too. And from now on you do know him and have seen him.”

Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father, and we will be content.”

Jesus replied, “Have I been with you for so long, and you have not known me, Philip? The person who has seen me has seen the Father!” (John 14:3-9)

The Revelation of the Trinity

The Light of the Gospel

The Gospel Frees Us to Live

Out of the Divine Relationship All Grace Flows

Grace is Divine Hospitality

Grace is the hospitality of Father, Son and Holy Spirit 

bringing us all into Their divine fellowship.

Trinitarian Grace

Grace is the mutually self-giving nature

of Father, Son and Holy Spirit

extended toward us.

Living Daily in the Reality

Discipleship is learning to live daily in the reality of the love of God, the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit.

God, Grace and Glory

God is love.

Grace is the love of God reaching out to us.

Glory is the revelation of that love and grace 

— the revelation we have in Jesus Christ.

The Eternal Bliss

Father, Son and Holy Spirit,

lead us all in into the eternal bliss

of Your divine fellowship. Amen.

A Trinitarian Prayer

The Whole World is a Sacrament

The whole world is a sacrament

that everywhere presents us

with the Father, Son

and Holy Spirit.
