The word “trinity” is not found in the Bible, but its glorious truth is. The word is derived from Latin, meaning “three-ness.” This threesome mystery is stated, not explained. Because there is no explanation, some cover their ignorance by their words, rather than accept the fact that it’s unexplainable. As A.W. Tozer said, “It’s truth for the heart.” If we comprehended it, we’d lose the wonder. This is one of those “secret things” that belongs only to God. But while we cannot know it, we can enjoy it.
Trinitarianism doesn’t mean Deity is divided. It is not three separate roles played by one person, nor a cluster of gods working independently of one another. It is a harmonious unity, co-equal and co-eternal. Two are not inactive while the One works. They are, if you please, a “Team,” always working together. There is only one will, one plan, and one objective.
It is this Divine Trio who is on the Christian’s side, working everything out for their good and God’s glory. Is it any wonder then that the apostle said, “…if God be for us, who can be against us?” Child of God, rejoice, for we have working for us around the clock “The Triumphant Three!”
“The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. Amen.”
