Synopsis

On The Holy Trinity is a theological treatise written by St. Augustine of Hippo, one of the most influential Christian thinkers in history. In this book, St. Augustine explores the nature of the Holy Trinity - the Christian doctrine that the one God exists in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. St. Augustine examines the biblical foundations of the Trinity, drawing on passages from both the Old and New Testaments. He also considers the philosophical implications of this doctrine, explaining how it relates to the concepts of unity, diversity, and love. Throughout the book, St. Augustine emphasizes the importance of understanding the Trinity for the Christian faith. He argues that a proper understanding of the Trinity is essential for believers to fully grasp the nature of God and the role of each person in the Godhead. On The Holy Trinity is considered one of St. Augustine's most important works, and has had a significant influence on Christian theology throughout the centuries. It is a challenging but rewarding read for anyone interested in deepening their understanding of the Christian doctrine of the Trinity.THIS 232 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: St. Augustin on the Holy Trinity, Doctrinal Treatises and Moral Treatises: Nicene and Post-Nicene Fathers of the Christian Church V3, by St. Augustin .

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Thedoctrine of the Divine Unity is a truth of natural religion; the doctrine of the Trinity is a truth of revealed religion. The various systems of natural theism present arguments for the Divine existence, unity, and attributes, but proceed no further. They do not assert and endeavor to demonstrate that the Supreme Being is three persons in one essence. It is because this doctrine is not discoverable by human reason, that the Christian church has been somewhat shy of attempts to construct it analytically; or even to defend it upon grounds of reason. The keen Dr. South expresses the common sentiment, when he remarks that “as he that denies this fundamental article of the Christian religion may lose his soul, so he that much strives to understand it may lose his wits.” Yet all the truths of revelation, like those of natural religion, have in them the element of reason, and are capable of a rational defense. At the very least their self-consistence can be shown, and objections to them can be answered. And this is a rational process. For one of the surest characteristics of reason is, freedom from self contradiction, and consonance with acknowledged truths in other provinces of human inquiry and belief.
