The Most Holy Trinity
May 31, 2015
Go . . . and make disciples of all nations,
baptizing them in the name of the Father,
and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.
— Matthew 28:19
THE TRINITY IS LOVE
Theologians throughout the
Christian centuries have spilled much ink
(and, on occasion, some blood) in
describing and defining the mystery of
the Holy Trinity. One of the earliest, most
poetic, and beautiful descriptions comes
from St. Augustine in De Trinitas, wherein he describes the
Trinity as One (the Father) who loves, One (the Son) who is
loved, and One (the Spirit) who is love. And these three
Ones are also one Three.
It might be wisest for us to leave the technical
wranglings to the academic theologians, and focus on the
fact that the three Persons of the Trinity are indeed persons;
they are best known and understood in their love for each
other and for us. We are made in the image of those loving
persons, and our best relationships are lived out in the
context of love. Truly loving relationships are inexhaustible
mysteries to be lived in joy. If this is true of our human
relationships, how much more so is it true of our relationship
with the Trinity. And how much more does it call upon us to
be joyful, loving witnesses of the holy mystery of the
One‑in‑Three. This is the mystery to which we were called
when we were chosen to be God’s own, baptized with water
in the name of the Holy Trinity.

Jesus gives disciples their charge
When Jesus appeared to the Eleven on the
mountain top in Galilee, it was so that the crowd
with them could witness his Ascension and get
instructions for next steps. Now that they had been taught
and witnessed Jesus’ glory, he wanted them to teach others
how to live as God’s children.
As his followers today, that’s our mission, too. Jesus gave
his listeners three commands: (1) Go, (2) make disciples of
all nations, and (3) baptize them. Baptism signifies a
renewed relationship with the Father, as revealed through
the Son, to be filled with the Holy Spirit – in other words, the
Holy Trinity.
The Trinity is a mystery most of us will never understand.
We don’t have to understand it to believe it. And we affirm it
each time we make the Sign of the Cross and say the words
Jesus said, “in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and
of the Holy Spirit.” We are also reminded that the Cross of
Jesus is the only means by which we can follow Christ into
the eternal life of the Trinity.
God bless you.

TRADICIONES DE NUESTRA FE
Marcos, Mateo y Lucas nos
relatan los eventos de la
Ascensión de Cristo al cielo. En
estas narraciones Jesús envía a
“los Once y los que estaban con
ellos” (Lucas 24:33), es decir, a todos los discípulos. La
misión que Jesús nos confía es de ser sus testigos y llevar
la Buena Nueva del perdón de los pecados desde
Jerusalén a todas las naciones y a toda la creación. Esta
predicación debe ir acompañada del Bautismo, para que
así, las personas que escuchen el mensaje tengan la
oportunidad de aceptar en su vida al Señor Jesús.
Por su parte, Jesús envía a los discípulos a bautizar a
todas las personas en el nombre de la Santísima Trinidad.
Es Dios entero, Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo actuando en la
vida de toda persona bautizada, así como en la persona
misionera. Hoy día estos misioneros son los papás y
mamás que traen sus niños para ser bautizados. A ellos
Jesús les exige: “Enseñen [a sus hijos e hijas] a cumplir
todo lo que yo les he mandado” (Mateo 28:19). También les
promete su ayuda diciendo: “Y yo estoy con ustedes hasta
el fin del mundo” (Mateo 28:20).
