The Trinity Relationship of the Father-Son-Spirit
In Review • The Father is shown to have authority of Role • The Son is shown to proceed from the Father • He is “begotten” as unique, not made • He is subordinate in role, but equal in essence and deity • Incarnation shows same qualities related, as does glorified Christ • This relationship is eternal
Likewise, The Spirit Proceeds From the Father & the Son
