“The Trinity (Part 1): Meeting God as Judge and Savior”

“The Trinity (Part 1): Meeting God as Judge and Savior”

The doctrine of the Trinity is neglected in most mainline Protestant churches these days. Sunday I am going to preach the first of a two-part sermon on the Triune nature of the God we worship: “Meeting God as Judge and Savior.” The following Sunday, October 23, I will preach on the other two aspects of the Trinity: “Meeting God as Creator and as Holy Spirit.” Although most people find the doctrine of the Trinity confusing, I will attempt to show that what is distinctive about Christianity is the claim that God comes to us in three ways we initially experience as negative, and yet turn out to be great gifts! – John Chamberlin.
