Genesis 1

The Old Testament Trinity, Genesis 1:1-2:3, Matthew 28:16-20

The Trinity is a mystery and yet, something that has been revealed since the beginning. It is not an abstract doctrine created by the New Testament, but is the reality of God, revealed throughout the Old Testament. It is merely made crystal clear in the New Testament.

A Trinitarian Faith, Matthew 28.16-20

The doctrine of the Trinity is a belief that separates Christianity from all other religions. This faith is set apart through this distinction, but what is the Trinity exactly? We can’t nail down or fully comprehend, but we can have some aspect of understanding regarding who God is in himself. He has revealed himself as the Father, and the Son, and the Holy Spirit through his work of creation and redemption and called us into the very eternal community that he has had in himself. Father Jeremiah gives us a quick look at the Apostles’ Creed and how it reveals the trinitarian nature of Christian faith.
