The Holy Trinity and Life Together
Trinity Sunday is one of the few Sundays when we recite the Athanasian Creed. The Nicene and Apostle’s Creeds are much shorter. Because we usually recite one of them each Sunday, they are most familiar to us.
When we recite these creeds, we, the Church, are proclaiming the Christian faith about the Trinity. The Athanasian Creed is the longest and most detailed regarding the Trinity. The Trinity is a mystery, no doubt. Yet Scripture clearly speaks of the Trinity. Take a look at this article about the Athanasian Creed to help improve your understanding of the Trinity.
“And when Jesus was baptized,... the heavens were opened to him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and coming to rest on him; and behold a voice from heaven said, ‘This is my beloved Son, with whom I am well pleased.’ ”
Matthew 3:16-17
