The Trinity
Relationship of the
Father-Son-Spirit
In Review
 The Father is shown to have authority of Role
 The Son is shown to proceed from the Father
 He is “begotten” as unique, not made
 He is subordinate in role, but equal in essence and deity
 Incarnation shows same qualities related, as does glorified
Christ
 This relationship is eternal
Likewise, The
Spirit
Proceeds
From the Father & the
Son

were made.

For us men and for our salvation he
came down from heaven by the power
of the Holy Spirit he was born of the
Virgin Mary, and became man.For our
sake he was crucified under Pontius
Pilate;he suffered, died, and was
buried.
Nicene Creed (325-381)
On the third day he rose againin
fulfillment of the Scriptures;he
ascended into heavenand is seated at
the right hand of the Father.He will
come again in glory to judge the living

no end..

Father and the Son he is worshiped
and glorified. He has spoken through
the Prophets.
Nicene Creed (325-381)
We believe in one holy catholic and
apostolic Church.We acknowledge
one baptism for the forgiveness of
