The Trinity
There’s no tenet more fundamental to Christianity than the doctrine of the Trinity, since it speaks to the identity of the God whom we worship. It’s a simple fact that we cannot worship One whom we don’t know. Thus, God’s self-disclosure to humans is relationally-focused; it’s given for the purpose of our coming to know him and having life in such knowledge. We must come to know who he is if we would be his people. And we cannot know who he is without going to his Word, where he gives us that disclosure.
Yet, contrary to the fanciful theories of some who write and produce bestselling books and movies, belief in the triune nature of God didn’t spring into existence at the Council of Nicea in AD 325. Rather, the confession that God exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit is found in unequivocal form in the New Testament. Even before the New Testament was reduced to writing, Christians were being baptized in the threefold name, as they had been commanded to do by Jesus himself (Matt. 28:19).
