4 - Trinity (part 1)
The God of the Bible is unique, not only as Creator, but as Trinity: we worship One God who exists eternally in three Persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Choosing words to describe this reality is difficult; after all, there’s nothing else just like God. So, we rely on the words of Scripture summarized very carefully in the historical creeds, which were developed in extensive, Scriptural study and debate. But the question is anything but coldly academic: in this episode we discuss how our salvation depends on the personal and interpersonal nature of the triune God.
This episode features: No More Mormon Jokes, the Great Puritan Theologian John Milton, the Dark Side of the Force, Be Good and Don’t Run with Scissors and Other Lessons from the Historical Jesus, Emily’s Appalling Lack of Cultural Literacy, and the SHOCKING TRUTH: What Really Happened at the Council of Nicea?

Athanasian Creed (excerpt on the Trinity)
21. The Father is made of none, neither created nor begotten.
22. The Son is of the Father alone; not made nor created, but begotten.
23. The Holy Spirit is of the Father and of the Son; neither made, nor created, nor begotten, but proceeding.
24. So there is one Father, not three Fathers; one Son, not three Sons; one Holy Spirit, not three Holy Spirits.
25. And in this Trinity none is afore or after another; none is greater or less than another.
26. But the whole three persons are coeternal, and coequal.
27. So that in all things, as aforesaid, the Unity in Trinity and the Trinity in Unity is to be worshipped.
28. He therefore that will be saved must thus think of the Trinity.
