Most Holy Trinity Everything You Always Wanted to Ask about Your Faith but were Afraid to Ask Contributed by Fr. Rey Sarmiento Question: “Doesn’t the Trinity mean there are three gods?” Answer: The answer is no. Trinity means there are three persons in ONE God; yet, each of the divine persons is distinct from the other in relationship of each to the other (CCC, par. 252). The Father is not the Son, nor is He the Holy Spirit. Likewise, the Son is not the Father, nor is the Holy Spirit, in the same way that the Holy Spirit is not the Son, nor is the Father. However, they are all united in one Godhead (CCC, par. 253). All the three persons possess the same divine nature; none of them is subordinate to each other. Each of them is “God whole and entire” (CCC, par. 253). The Church had to borrow some terms from the discipline of phi- losophy to explain the Trinity: Jesus, who is God the Son, is homoousious with the Father. Ok, what is that strange, fancy word, homoousious? Homoousious is a Greek word used to explain that Jesus is “of the same essence” of the Father, not similar, but of the same essence, “one in being” with the Father. Once we say that the Father greater than the Son, or the Son is greater than the Holy Spirit, then we will have a breakdown in our creed: “I believe in one God”. The breakdown will result in having three Gods competing with each other in prominence. Now, is this something that the Church invented? No. In John 14:9, Jesus himself says, “Whoever has seen me has seen the Father”. In John 14:11, Jesus further says, “I am in the Father, and the Father is in me”. What these two verses clearly state is that wherever Jesus is, the Father is there as well, even if they remain distinct persons. The same is likewise true in the case of the Holy Spirit.

Our new year begins as the old one ended – at war. Still mindful of the terrible events of September 11, we continue to mourn the victims of the attacks, praying for them and for their loved ones. As the conflict in Afghanistan continues, we include in our prayers victims of war everywhere, especially those who suffer most - the children. For Catholics, as for many people of faith, we are faced with the biblical command to love our neighbor and to be builders of peace. As our country and its allies go after those who continue to threaten us, we have to reflect more deeply on the meaning of the Pope’s instruction to foster a culture of life, and not death. From the just war to the death penalty, from abortion to euthanasia, we are confronted with the difficult task of reconciling our stance in defense of all life with the need to protect and defend the innocent. It is fitting that many religious communities offer the space where people can come together to pray and seek the Lord’s guidance in building a peaceful future. At home, we are looking at the possible causes of violence and many have pointed to the disparity between the rich and the poor.
