#three persons

[fieriframes]

[I DON'T DE-BLING JUST FOR EVERYBODY. HOLY, HOLY, HOLY, LORD GOD ALMIGHTY. EARLY IN THE MORNING OUR SONG SHALL RISE TO THEE, AND THERE IS A SIGN AT THE SIDE OF THEE, MERCIFUL AND MIGHTY. GOD IN THREE PERSONS, GOD IN THREE PERSONS, BLESSED TRINITY, SOME CARROTS IN THERE, WRAP IT IN FOIL.]

There is one only and true God, but in the unity of the Godhead there are three coeternal and coequal Persons, the same in substance but distinct in subsistence.

From “The Divine Romance” by Venerable Fulton J. Sheen:

The Father loves the Son, Whom He engenders. The Son loves the Father, Who engendered Him. They contemplate each other, love each other, unite in a love so powerful, so strong, and so perfect, that it forms between them a living bond. They give themselves in a love so infinite that, like the truth, which expresses itself only in the giving of a whole personality, their love can express itself in nothing less than a Person, Who is Love. Love at such a stage does not speak; does not cry; does not express itself by words, nor by canticles; it expresses itself as we do in some ineffable moments, by that which indicates the very exhaustion of our giving — namely, a sigh, or a breath. And that is why the Third Person of the Blessed Trinity is called the Holy Spirit or the Holy Ghost.    

That breath of love is not a passing one like our own, but an eternal spirit. How all this is done, I know not; but I do believe on the testimony of the Word Incarnate that that Holy Spirit has been sent by God to rule His Church: “But when He, the Spirit of truth is come, He will teach you all truth." (cf. John 16:13) And I believe that the continuous, unbroken succession of the truth communicated by Christ to His Church has survived to our own day; not because of the human organization of the Church, for that is carried on by frail vessels, but because of a profusion of the Spirit of Love over Christ's Vicar and all who belong to Christ's mystical body.    

Three in one, Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; three persons in one God; one in essence, distinction of persons — such is the mystery of the Trinity, such is the inner life of God. Just as I am, I know, and I love and yet am one; just as the three angles of a triangle do not make three triangles, but one; just as the heat, power, and light of the sun do not make three suns, but one; just as water, air, and steam are all manifestations of the one substance; just as the form, color, and perfume of the rose do not make three roses, but one; just as our soul, our intellect, and our will do not make three substances, but one; just as one times one times one, does not equal three, but one — so too in some much more mysterious way, there are three Persons in God and yet only one God.
