Day 36: The Nature of the Trinity (2025)
February 5th, 2025 | 17 mins 40 secs
ascension, bible, catechism, catechism in a year, catechism of the catholic church, catholic, catholic church, catholic doctrine, catholic faith, catholic teachings, catholicism, divine persons, father, father mike, father mike schmitz, foundations of faith, fr mike, fr mike schmitz, holy spirit, jesus, scripture, son, three persons, tradition, trinity, unity
Together, with Fr. Mike, we continue our exploration of the Church’s teachings on the nature of the Holy Trinity. We examine three main ideas. The first is the unity of the Trinity, that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are all one God. The next is the Divine Persons as distinct from one another: one God, three distinct persons. As Fr. Mike states, “The Son is not the Father, the Father is not the Son, and the Holy Spirit is not either.” Finally, Fr. Mike discusses the relation between each person of the Holy Trinity. Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 253-256.

ascension, baptism, bible, blessed trinity, catechism, catechism in a year, catechism of the catholic church, catholic, catholic church, catholic doctrine, catholic faith, catholic teachings, catholicism, christian mystery, economy, father mike, father mike schmitz, foundations of faith, fr mike, fr mike schmitz, hidden in god, in the name of the father, jesus, most holy trinity, mystery of faith, mystery of the trinity, oikonomia, one god, scripture, sign of the cross, the trinity, theologia, theology, three persons, tradition, trinitarian, trinity, truths of the faith
Christians are baptized “in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,” not the “names” of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Catechism explains this distinction by introducing us to the “central mystery of Christian faith and life”: the Trinity. Fr. Mike slows us down to meditate on what God reveals to us concerning his inner life, the very thing that “many prophets and righteous people longed to see… [and] hear.” Today’s readings are Catechism paragraphs 232-237.
