  • The Trinity in Scripture
    Journal of the Adventist Theological Society, 14/2 (Fall 2003): 80–94. Article copyright © 2003 by Gerhard Pfandl. The Trinity in Scripture Gerhard Pfandl Biblical Research Institute The word Trinity (Lat. Trinitas, Òtri-unityÓ or Òthree-in-onenessÓ) is not found in the Bible (neither is the word ÒincarnationÓ), but the teaching it de- scribes is clearly contained in Scripture. Briefly defined, the doctrine of the Trinity stands for the concept that ÒGod eternally exists as three persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, and each person is fully God, and there is one God.Ó1 God himself is a mysteryÑhow much more the incarnation or the Trinity! Nevertheless, even though we may not be able to comprehend logically the vari- ous aspects of the Trinity, we need to try to understand as best we can the scriptural teaching regarding it. All attempts to explain the Trinity will fall short, Òespecially when we reflect on the relation of the three persons to the divine essence . all analogies fail us and we become deeply conscious of the fact that the Trinity is a mystery far beyond our comprehension. It is the incomprehensi- ble glory of the Godhead.Ó2 Therefore, we do well to admit that Òman cannot comprehend it and make it intelligible. It is intelligible in some of its relations and modes of manifestations, but unintelligible in its essential nature.Ó3 We need to be aware that we can only ever achieve a partial understanding of what the Trinity is. As we listen to GodÕs Word, certain elements of the Trin- ity will become clear, but others will remain a mystery.

  • Christian Theologians Views on the Doctrine of Trinity in the Islamic Philosophical Criticism

Disomimbaa, Kalsom Alib, Abdussalam s. Disomimbac a Akidah and Religion Program, Faculty of Leadership and Management, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia. bDa῾wah and Islamic Management Program, Faculty of Leadership and Management, Universiti Sains Islam Malaysia. cKing Faisal Center for Asian and Arabic Studies, Mindanao State University, Philippines DOI: 10.6007/IJARBSS/v7-i13/3195 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.6007/IJARBSS/v7-i13/3195 ABSTRACT This article discusses the views of Christian theologians on the doctrine of trinity in the light of Islamic philosophical criticism. It focuses the oneness of God through Islamic philosophical criticism, understanding the proofs and evidences of Christian theologians based on their Holy Bible, Athanasius Creed and Nicene Creed. The tendency of giving priority of this study is to show the views of Christian theologians on the doctrine of trinity with Islamic philosophical criticism in order to justify and confirm the oneness of God. The objectives of the study is to identify and trace the historical background of the oneness of God as Creator, to confirm that Jesus Christ is not God and creator, to confirm that God is not three persons and the three persons is not same substance and nature of the Son and Holy Spirit, to analyze and summarize the views of the Christian theologians on the doctrine of Trinity with Islamic philosophical criticism.

  • REFLECTIONS on the DOCTRINE of the TRINITY Faith in the Living
    REFLECTIONS ON THE DOCTRINE OF THE TRINITY RAOUL DEDEREN Andrews University, Berrien Springs, Michigan Faith in the living God has been rejected time and again by the ignorant and the indifferent, as well as by many of the learned and the thoughtful. It has been especially chal- lenged today. Such theologians as Bishop John A. T. Robinson of Woolwich, honestly seeking to be Honest to God, urge Christians to abandon most of the phrasing which historically has been used to convey Christian thought. Similarly, the late Bishop James A. Pike of California dismisses many traditional doctrines as old bottles which will inevitably burst and whose bursting should occasion no regrets. In this kind of context many men, even ministers, feel uneasy when they think about the Trinity. The question before us is whether it is time to renounce a doctrine which, by affirming that there are three persons in God, seems to have produced confusion rather than clarification, or whether it was designed to embody values that are a vital and necessary part of the Christian faith. From the days of Arius it has been a chosen scheme with his disciples to represent the doctrine of the Trinity as an artificial theological construct, and consequently unimportant. To a large number of Christians, however, it is a doctrine fundament4 to Christianity since it deals with a correct knowledge of God. Related to the divine Being, his nature and mode of being, this knowledge affects every man's understanding of God as the object of his worship, whether he regards him as one in essence and one in person, or admits that in the unity of the Deity there are three equally divine persons.

  • Rublev's Icon: Contemplating the Trinity, Inwardly and Outwardly
    Rublev’s Icon: Contemplating the Trinity, Inwardly and Outwardly Paul Fromont The Hospitality of Abraham. For many of us, any talk of Trinity brings to mind Andrei Rublev’s 15 th century icon, painted it is believed, sometime around 1410. Type “Trinitarian icons” into Google Images and the predominant image you’ll get is this well-known icon. I have in my library a beautiful copy of it – written by the Benedictines from the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem – a gift from one of my sisters. Called by its traditional Eastern name it is known as “The Hospitality of Abraham.” It depicts the three angels who visited Abraham near the great trees of Mamre (Gen 18: 1-15), but has long come to be seen as an icon of the Trinity; although it must be said that it is far from clear that that the intention of the “writer” was to identify each of the three figures as a particular member of the Trinity. Tradition does however suggest that the central, and thus pivotal figure in the icon, is Jesus Christ incarnate.” 1 “If it pleases you, stop for a while with your servant [Abraham]. I'll get some water so you can wash your feet. Rest under this tree. I'll get some food to refresh you on your way, since your travels have brought you across my path." They said, "Certainly. Go ahead." Abraham hurried into the tent to Sarah. He said, "Hurry. Get three cups of our best flour; knead it and make bread." Then Abraham ran to the cattle pen and picked out a nice plump calf and gave it to the servant who lost no time getting it ready.

Journal for Christian Theological Research 8 (2003) 59–66 The Trinity and the Freedom of God Paul D. Molnar St. John’s University A contemporary doctrine of the immanent Trinity is essential for recognizing, upholding and respecting divine freedom as the basis of relevant theological activity and genuine human freedom. In this article I contend that divine freedom will be recognized and respected only if and to the extent that such recognition is grounded in God’s actual freedom for us exercised in the history of Jesus Christ and through the action of his Holy Spirit.¹ Hearing this thesis in a vacuum one could perhaps wonder why anyone would bother to say this at all since most contemporary theologians would agree with this thesis, at least formally. But this thesis is in fact loaded because, while most Christian theologians would agree that a doctrine of the immanent Trinity should help us recognize, uphold and respect God’s freedom as the basis, meaning and goal of human freedom, very many contemporary theologians tend to read back their experiences and concepts into God instead of allowing God the eternal Father, Son and Holy Spirit to defi ne the content of those concepts and experiences.

  • The Resurrection of Jesus and the Doctrine of the Trinity ROBERT L
    Word & World 2/1 (1982) Copyright © 1982 by Word & World, Luther Seminary, St. Paul, MN. All rights reserved. page 17 The Resurrection of Jesus and the Doctrine of the Trinity ROBERT L. WILKEN The University of Notre Dame, Notre Dame, Indiana I As preeminent as the doctrine of the Trinity is in the liturgy and in the doctrinal tradition of the church, it plays but a small role in the piety of most Christians and is sadly neglected by contemporary theologians. Most Christians today continue to confess the triune God in the rolling cadences of the Nicene Creed, if not in the anathemas of the Quiqunque vult (the Athanasian Creed); they bless themselves and baptize their children in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. They begin worship by invoking the triune God and return to their homes with a trinitarian blessing ringing in their ears. Yet, if one were to scratch beneath the surface of Christian language and practice, it is doubtful one would discover a robust trinitarian faith. One would, I suspect, find that while many Christians still “believe” in the doctrine, as an article of faith handed on in the creeds, this teaching does little to inform the actual practice of their faith. Our hymns, for example, are overwhelmingly oriented to Christ, and the number of hymns where the Holy Spirit figures prominently are few in number. To be sure, in recent years there has been a resurgence of interest in the Holy Spirit, and the charismatic movement is an impressive sign that the Holy Spirit can capture the imagination of Christians, renew Christian lives, and redirect Christian devotion into new channels.

Case Kingsley College, Melbourne Over several years of reading—and rereading—Wolfhart Pannenberg and Eberhard Jüngel, I have come to be exercised over the questions of how the death of Jesus is said to determine the life of God, and how this determinative death relates to the conceptions of truth with which Pannenberg and Jüngel operate. In this paper I attempt to demonstrate how, in both Pannenberg’s and Jüngel’s theology, the death of Jesus, when understood in a Trinitarian context, instantiates in the life of God the critical moment peculiar to the logic of their respective conceptions of truth.
