trinity
a word not found in scripture, but used to express the doctrine
of the unity of god as subsisting in three distinct persons.
this word is derived from the gr. trias, first used by
theophilus a.d. 168-183, or from the lat. trinitas, first used
by tertullian a.d. 220, to express this doctrine. the
propositions involved in the doctrine are these: 1. that god is
one, and that there is but one god deut. 6:4; 1 kings 8:60;
isa. 44:6; mark 12:29, 32; john 10:30. 2. that the father is a
distinct divine person hypostasis, subsistentia, persona,
suppositum intellectuale, distinct from the son and the holy
spirit. 3. that jesus christ was truly god, and yet was a person
distinct from the father and the holy spirit. 4. that the holy
spirit is also a distinct divine person.
- [5] : THE DEVIL'S DICTIONARY ((C)1911 Released April 15 1993)
trinity, n. in the multiplex theism of certain christian churches,
three entirely distinct deities consistent with only one. subordinate
deities of the polytheistic faith, such as devils and angels, are not
dowered with the power of combination, and must urge individually
their clames to adoration and propitiation. the trinity is one of the
most sublime mysteries of our holy religion. in rejecting it because
it is incomprehensible, unitarians betray their inadequate sense of
theological fundamentals. in religion we believe only what we do not
understand, except in the instance of an intelligible doctrine that
contradicts an incomprehensible one. in that case we believe the
former as a part of the latter.
