Fr. Kelly:
Baltimore Catechism Series:
The Unity and Trinity of God (Part 2)
This week in the Baltimore Catechism Series, we continue with some questions regarding the nature of God, namely, His Unity and the Triune nature:
Are the three divine Persons perfectly equal to one another?
The three divine Persons are perfectly equal to one another, because all are one and the same God. The Father is all-powerful, the Son is all-powerful, the Holy Spirit is all-powerful. The Father is eternal, the Son is eternal, the Holy Spirit is eternal. The Father knows all things, the Son knows all things, and the Holy Spirit knows all things, etc.
How are there three divine Persons, though really distinct from one another, one and the same God?
The three divine Persons, though really distinct from one another, are one and the same God because all have one and the same divine nature. If we wanted to show this, we could put three circles one on top of one another, since all three have the same nature (although all three are distinct from one another).
Can we fully understand how the three divine Persons, though really distinct from one another, are one and the same God?
We cannot fully understand how the three divine Persons, though really distinct from one another, are one and the same God because this is a supernatural mystery [but we can understand that this mystery is not contrary to human reason or is contradictory].
What is a supernatural mystery?
A supernatural mystery is a truth which we cannot fully understand, but which we firmly believe because we have God’s word for it. There are two kinds of mysteries, natural and supernatural. A natural mystery is something hidden or unknown here on earth. For example: the exact nature of electricity, what is at the bottom of the deepest parts of the ocean, what the center of the earth looks like, what is beyond the furthest star, and so forth. A supernatural mystery is something about God or our soul that we could not find out for ourselves, but which God has made known to us. We can know some things about supernatural mysteries from what God has told us, but not everything about them. For example, the truths contained in the Creed.
Bits & Pieces:
- The problem with your leisure time is keeping others from using it.
- The most wasted of all days is one without laughter.
- To stay young, associate with youth; to grow old, try keeping up with them.
