GOD TRINITY
The essence of faith in God the Trinity is the belief that God (the Father) save humanity in Christ (the Son) by the Holy Spirit. Speaking of the Trinity, which speaks of the mystery of God who gives himself to man.
Let's start basic teaching about the Holy Trinity (where we speak the facts of salvation history.
BIBLE TEACHINGS
"God was reconciling the world to himself in Christ" (2 Cor 5:19)
"The love of God poured out in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us" (Rom 5: 5).
Let us note carefully the two paragraphs above, wherein the act of God, in Christ, and the Holy Spirit. So the work of Christ and the Holy Spirit, is the work of God. The early Church believes that in Christ, and in the work of the Holy Spirit, God's work of salvation accomplished.
From the description above, the whole work of God's brief is formulated in Ephesians 1: 3-14 below:
"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ who in Christ has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavens. For in Him God chose us before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before Him. In love He has predestined us by Jesus Christ to be the children of his, according to the good pleasure of his will, so that the praise of his grace glorious, has given him to us in him, who loved him. For in Him and by His blood we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace, grace to us in all wisdom and understanding. For he has declared secret His will to us, in accordance with the plan of his good pleasure, namely the willingness of the original plan has been established him in Christ as the administration of the fullness of time to unite in Christ as the head of all things, both in heaven and on earth. I say "in Christ", for in him we inherit the promises - we are predestined to receive parts according to the purpose of him who works all things after the counsel of His will - that we, who had previously been pinning its hopes on Christ, should be the praise of his glory. In Him you also-because you've heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation - in whom you also, when you believe, are sealed with the Holy Spirit, who promised it. And the Holy Spirit is the guarantee of our inheritance until we acquire the redemption which God's own possession, to the praise of his glory. "
If we look carefully, it is clear that the work of salvation is God's doing, which is here called the "Father of our Lord Jesus Christ". The saving work concretely historical accomplished in Christ.
Before the Apostle Paul (the writer of the letter to the Ephesians) spoke about the redemption obtained for the cross of Christ, said beforehand that "from the beginning", namely "before the foundation of the world" Allah has determined the plan of salvation is "in Christ". Christ is God's way of salvation according to the original plan. As the core work of God is called revelation of God's plan in Christ and the work was continued by the Holy Spirit who is the "guarantee" the fullness of redemption at the end of time.
From the description above we know that the doctrine of the triune God is not a theory, revealed in full by Jesus or the apostles, but rather a summary of the work of God carried out in Christ and the Holy Spirit.
