What Is Meant
. .
By The Trinity?
“The grace of the Lord Jesus
Christ and the love of God and
the fellowship of the Holy
Spirit be with you all.”
II Corinthians 13:14.
Why do most Christians be
lieve in what is called the Trin
ity? This is a question which
is often asked by such religi
ous groups as the Jews, the
Unitarians and the Mohamemd
ans.
Let's look at the history.
First, the Scripture contains no
specific teaching about the doc
trine of the Trinity. Paul re
fers to the persons of the Trin
ity in his well-known benedic
tion to the Second Letter to the
Corinthians which is quoted
above. However, he never felt
compelled to state a definite
doctrine. He seemsd to just
take the three persons of the
God-head for granted.
The doctrine of the Trinity
did not become official church
dogma until the fourth century.
Two general church councils
met that century — one at
Nicaea and the other at Con
stantinople. Each of them
established the doctrine of the
Trinity as official echurch
dogma. In those early days of
the church, there was much
danger from false teaching.
There were attempts to be-little
Jesus Christ theologically. So
the church fathers felt it nec
essary to affirm that both
Jesus Christ as Son of God and
the Holy Spirit are unqualified
ly the same being as God the
Father,
Does this sound strange to
you? How can three persons
be one? This has baffled many
Christian teachers throughout
the centuries. Most teachers
have concluded that under
standing of the Trinity is some
thing reserved to revelation. In
other words, it can’t be per
fectly understood except by a
direct revelation of God. The
trouble with not being able to
believe the Trinity is summed
up in these words that Jesus
spoke to Nicodemus, “If I have
told you earthly things and you
do not believe, how can you be
lieve if 1 tell you heavenly
things ?”
To understand the Trinity,
one must begin with the affir
mation that God is One. This
is a truth that we cannot lose
sight of. When we sing of “God
in three persons, blessed Trin
ity,” we are singing of One
God. We actually mean God
revealed in three facets of his
personality,
Donald Baillie, the theologi
an, suggests we think of the
Trinity in terms of how We see
the One God through each per
son of the Trinity.
First, we see the Creator,
what God is in his eternal love.
He is all-powerful. His author
ity is supreme. Thus He is
Father, the One in whom is the
source of our existence and the
One who has made provision
for the continuation of our ex
istence in this life and in the
life to come.
Second, we see God working
through the life of Jesus Christ.
“l am in the Father and the
Father is in me,” said Jesus. In
Jesus the grace of the righte
ous God is revealed. This grace
is directed through Jesus to
unrighteous people. Christ on
the Cross is God on the Cross,
but it is the forgiving, merci
ful side of God that we see on
the Cross rather than the all
powerful, creative God.
Third, we accept the presence
of God yet in our midst. This
is his Holy Spirit. Jesus left
his followers sight, but his
presence was still with them.
His presence was with them in
a new empowering sense, It
was not God revealed as Cre
ator, or God revealed as Jesus
which turned Peter and the
other disciples into flaming
evangels of the Truth, It was

' MACH!INE MANGLES
' HAND OF
' LOCAL MAN
! A machine which he was
operating mangled the hand of
| a local man last week before it
;could be stopped. Although the
{ accident happened on the
{ seventh floor of the building
| where the construction was
{taking place, the injured man
| walked to the first aid room
ion the first floor. From phe
| first aid room he was carried
| to the hospital.
Despite his injury, Alton El
rick returned to work this
week in Augusta, reporting
Monday to the hospital before
resuming duties.
Elrick’'s right hand was
caught between the cable and
block of the machine. His ring
finger was cut off at the first
joint, and the skin of his index
finger was ripped off from near
the first joint to the end. Aec
cording to reports from his
family, the skin was sewed back
on but doctors have not yet
been able to determine the suc
cess of the procedure. The
' first finger and little finger
?are crushed and doctors say it
is possible all the knuckles of
}his hand are broken.
~ Although the injuries are
extremely painful, Elrick drove
back to Augusta Monday. His
many friends hope there will
be no complications and that
his hand will soon begin to
heal,
