The Trinity (61)
  1. This sermon is a terrific opportunity in the season of Pentecost to give a teaching on the Holy Trinity with an emphasis on the mystery of God.
  2. Usually, our preaching directs us to the works of God. But this week, we focus on the nature of God. Trinity Sunday names the God of the First Commandment who we are to fear, love, and trust above all else.
  3. The point is not to get people to better “understand the Holy Trinity.” It is to get the hearer face to face with the fact that Jesus Christ is God.
  4. This passage teaches us about the person and work of Christ not in false personification or in the Arian way but in the true biblical and Trinitarian way.
  5. The doctrine of the Trinity is not so much the story of a “who-dunnit” as it is the story of the “who-is-it.”
  6. On this episode of Preaching the Text, John Hoyum and Steve Paulson discuss the texts for Holy Trinity Sunday.
  7. The celebration of Trinity Sunday–the only church festival specifically dedicated to a doctrine–reminds us of the necessity of confessing that the one God exists in three persons, Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
  8. The Great King comes for us.
