Brothers : The Holy Spirit and Jesus| Next | Previous | Contact Ron | Ron's Blog | Index | Tellout Home |
In the Gospels, we discover the Trinity at the Baptism of Jesus. The Father declares from the clouds "This is my beloved Son." The Holy Spirit hovers over Jesus like a dove. Here are all three member of the Trinity at once. Jesus talks at length about his close relationship to both the Father and the Holy Spirit in the Godhead. He says, "I am returning to my Father and to your Father"1 and "When the Comforter comes, the Holy Spirit whom the Father will send in my name..."2
Even as Jesus ascends to heaven, he commissions his disciples with the words, "Go therefore and preach the Gospel to all nations, teaching them all that I have taught you and baptize them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit..."3 Here is the Trinity in the final instruction of Jesus to the Apostles. Later, Paul blessed the Corinthian Christians with the words of the Trinity, "May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all"4
