Opis

God the Father is the Lord of salvation history and Creator of all that is.The Father is unbegotten but acts and can only act in the unity of the Son and Holy Spirit.The Father generates the Son and with the Son sends forth the Holy Spirit.The Son is begotten by the Father and not made out of nothing like a creature.The Son is of same substance with the Father.Thus the Son is coequal with the Father.It is through the Son as the Word of the Father that the Father is expressed in salvation history and within the inner life of the Trinity as well.The Holy Spirit is the Fathers gift through the Son. It is through the Spirit that the Father is communicated to us with immediacy and it is through the Spirit that we are able to accept the self communication of the Father.The Spirit has the same essence as the Father and yet is distinct from the Father and the Son.The Spirit proceeds from the Father through the Son.This book comes at a time when Europe and Africa needs evangelisation and inculturation to make Trinity feel at home in different cultures in the world.This book is an asset to all Theological Universities and colleges in the world.It is simple,clear, precise and easy to follow.
