“We believe in one God,the Father, the Almighty,maker of heaven and earth,of all that is, seen and unseen.We believe in one Lord, Jesus Christ,the only Son of God………We believe in the Holy Spirit,the Lord, the giver of life,who proceeds from the Father and the Son,who with the Father and the Son is worshipped and glorified,who has spoken through the prophets.”The quotation above is from the Nicene Creed. Whenever we attend a service we reiterate what we believe. We know from the Ten Commandments that we must worship only one God. According to the Creed we believe in one God, one Lord (Jesus) and the Lord, the giver of life. What do we think of as we say those words? Do we accept the words without question? Do we have a strong understanding of and belief in them?Sunday 15th June is ‘Trinity Sunday’, when we celebrate the fundamental concept in Christian theology that there is only one God, but our God is described as one being in three distinct persons, all equal and all entirely God – The Father, the Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit. God is the creator and sustainer of all things. Jesus is God in human form who suffered with and for us. The Holy Spirit is all around us, guiding and empowering us.Discuss!
