Feast of the Holy Trinity -- Eternal, Perfect and Divine Relationship

Readings:
Genesis 1:1-2:4a
Psalm 8
2Corinthians 13:11-13
Matthew 28:16-20

It has been said that Holy Trinity Sunday is the only Sunday dedicated to a doctrine of the Church. While it is true that the doctrine of the Trinity is key and central to the Christian faith, this Sunday reminds us not only of the doctrine, which of course is spelled out nowhere in Scripture, but when we speak of our Triune God, we speak of the eternal character of God. The Trinity speaks about who God is and who we are called to be in the midst of God's nature.
