It Is To Your Advantage
June 12
Our reading from the Gospel of John provides the foundation for the Doctrine of the Trinity. Over these past several weeks, as we traveled with the first followers of Jesus from the day of his resurrection to the day of his ascension back to the Father, Jesus’ imminent departure seemed catastrophic. Earlier, Peter said to the Lord, “To whom can we go? You have the words of eternal life?” (John 6:68). And last week as we celebrated Pentecost, the promise of the Holy Spirit fulfilled, we are to realize that we are not alone we have “the Word of eternal life” with us always and everywhere. Why then, is this Doctrine of the Trinity so important for the world—for all of creation?
