THE MOST HOLY TRINITY – YEAR C
12 JUNE 2022
BREAKING OPEN THE WORD
UNITY OF LOVE (John 16:12-15)
There is a famous icon of the Trinity by Rublev in which the three persons of the Trinity are depicted gathered around a table. Each of the figures looks toward, the others and while each is painted in different colours each one is difficult to distinguish from the others. Rublev chose this graphic means to depict the uniqueness and unity of the Triune God. Similarly, the New Testament writers sought to express what they understood about the nature of God as Father, Son and Spirit. Each has a particular role in the unfolding of salvation history and yet they are united in a community of love. For Paul, it is through our faith in Jesus that we are judged to be righteous, a righteousness which comes through his death and resurrection and enables us to look forward to the future glory of God the Father. The Spirit, for his part, has poured the love of God into our hearts. Certainly, Paul would not have claimed to have fully plumbed the depths of God, and yet like other first- generation Christians, he knew that you could not speak about God without coming to terms with God as Father, Son and Spirit.
The unity of Father, Son and Spirit is strongly expressed in the Gospel of John where all that the Father has is also the Son’s, and whatever the Spirit will speak to the Church is an expression of what comes from the Father and the Son.
