Article 1: The Triune God
Pastor Joshua Hughes
Text: Mark 1:9-11
I. The Triune God. We believe in one God, eternally existing in three equally divine Persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, who know, love, and glorify one another. This one true and living God is infinitely perfect both in his love and in his holiness. He is the Creator of all things, visible and invisible, and is therefore worthy to receive all glory and adoration. Immortal and eternal, he perfectly and exhaustively knows the end from the beginning, sustains and sovereignly rules over all things, and providentially brings about his eternal good purposes to redeem a people for himself and restore his fallen creation, to the praise of his glorious grace.
Three Trinitarian Foundations:
1) There is one God (Deuteronomy 6:4; Exodus 3:13–15; Isaiah 45:5).
2) There are three persons in the one God. Each person is the same substance and holds the proper name Yahweh: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
3) The three persons are co-equal and co-eternal, the same in substance, equal in power, and glory. But they are not the same person.
I. What the apostles read and believed
II. What the apostles experience and wrote
III. What the church systematizes and confesses
IV. Why it all matters
- the Trinity oxygenates us by resizing us
- the Trinity oxygenates us by relationalizing us
- the Trinity oxygenates us by re-storying us
