Trinity Sunday (38)
  1. By paying attention to “all” Jesus says in these last words to His disciples, we get a full picture of Jesus and His relationship, not only to the Father and the Spirit, but also to us.
  2. God, through the mystery of Trinity, is at work in the act of creation. Every person of the Trinity participated in creation.
  3. Proclaim the person and work of Jesus Christ for the salvation of your hearer. If it is good enough for the Athanasian Creed, it is good enough for your pulpit.
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.”
