Trinity Sunday (32)
  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.”
  5. 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.
  6. We look on the face of God in Christ and rejoice on account of His shed blood and righteousness which sets us free to be the people of God.
  7. Just as the condemnation embraces us even now, so too does the remedy and the promise. Both are found in the cross of Christ.
  8. God has filled our lives with moments, pieces of poetry, which reveal the gracious beauty and powerful mystery of the Trinity.
