2019-06-16 - Year C - Trinity Sunday - The Rev. Christopher M. Klukas
Isaiah 6:1-7; Psalm 29; Revelation 4:1-11; John 16:5-15
The tension between God’s “closeness” and his “otherness,” his transcendence and his immanence, is part of what led to the doctrine of the Trinity in the early Church. As Christians we believe that God is one God in three Persons. It is hard to get our mind around how this could be, and yet, this is how God has revealed himself to us. It is Jesus, the second person of the Trinity and the "image of the invisible God" who reconnects us with our heavenly Father and makes the distant God near to us once more. For those of us who are "in Christ," God now dwells within us in the person of the Holy Spirit!
