The Trinity, as revealed in Matthew 28:16-20, highlights the authority, mission, and presence of God in the work of salvation. We are called to embrace the mystery and unity of the Trinity as we live out our faith and share the love of God with the world.
Hey guys, welcome! Today we're going to talk about something that might sound a bit complicated, but it's actually super cool. It's called the Trinity. You might have heard of it as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
So, what's the Trinity? It's the idea that God is one, but also three. It's like a three-in-one deal. God the Father, Jesus the Son, and Holy Spirit are all God, but they're also distinct from each other. It's a bit like a three-leaf clover. Each leaf is separate, but they're all part of the same clover.
God the Father, Jesus the Son, and Holy Spirit are all God, but they're also distinct from each other.
Now, let's dive into the Bible. In Matthew 28:16-20, Jesus tells his followers to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. This is a big deal because it shows us that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are all involved in our journey with God.
First, let's talk about authority. In this passage, Jesus says that all authority has been given to him. Who gave him that authority? God the Father. But does that mean the Father is more powerful than Jesus or the Holy Spirit? Nope. They're all equal and work together as a team. It's like a band. The drummer, guitarist, and singer all have different roles, but they're all equally important to make the music happen.
Next, let's talk about the mission. Jesus tells his followers to go and make disciples of all nations. That's a big job! But the cool thing is, we're not doing it alone. The Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are all with us, helping us share God's love with others. It's like when you're playing a video game and you have your team backing you up. You're not fighting the boss alone; you've got your squad with you.
Finally, let's talk about presence. Jesus promises that he'll be with us always, even to the end of the age. That means no matter what we're going through, we're not alone. God is with us, helping us, comforting us, and guiding us. It's like having a best friend who's always there for you, no matter what.
So, what does this all mean for us? It means that we're part of something big. We're part of God's mission to share his love with the world. And we're not doing it alone. We've got the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit with us every step of the way.
So, let's live out our faith with confidence, knowing that we're backed by the ultimate team - the Trinity. Let's share God's love with the world and make disciples of all nations, just like Jesus told us to.
