  • Summary

  • We continue our introduction to the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. Ryan reminds us of some of the basics of divine naming, and the important of first treating "father," "son," and "holy spirit" as predicates before proceeding to use them as proper or personal names.

    Key Takeaways:

    1. In God, all are one except where relation of opposition intervenes.

    2. Relations make the Trinity.

    3. Relations are a certain "towardness."

    4. The father is toward the son. The son is toward the father. The father and son are together toward the holy spirit, and the holy spirit is toward the father and the son.

    5. These four relations in God are called: Paternity, Filiation, Active Spiration (from father and son as one principle) and Passive Spiration (the holy spirit as proceeding from father and son).
