How are we to relate to a three-personed God? The idea of the Trinity may initially seem too abstract to understand, but the truth is that a deeper knowledge of God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit has daily importance. Convinced that many Christians “have some level of awareness that God is triune…[but] are virtually Unitarian,” the authors have written a practical and theologically robust resource to help readers grow closer to the Triune God.
Philip Ryken and Michael LeFebvre examine the doctrine of the Trinity in four parts. They explain the roles of the Father, Son, and Spirit in salvation; answer difficult questions about the Trinity; explore the believer’s relationship to each person of the Trinity; and provide an exposition of the various Gospel narratives depicting how the three persons of the Trinity work together to accomplish the redemptive purposes of God. Their careful treatment of these central truths captures important implications for the Christian life.
Our Triune God is a helpful guide for Christians wanting to deepen their faith and for pastors as they shepherd their congregations toward a richer love of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

    Christianity, Judaism, and Islam all recognize monotheism as teaching this sovereignty of one God behind all events. Judaism and Islam, however, take the extra step of seeing in monotheism a “psychoanalysis” of God’s inner nature. Christianity does not find this further deduction compelling.

    nature. As one writer summarized, “Nothing is more evident in the Old Testament than the fundamental oneness of God. Yet . . . the Old Testament reveals the unity of God to us as a differentiated oneness.”17 This Old Testament witness is an important part of the Church’s confident confession of faith in the triune nature of God.
  • David Bloomerhas quoted7 years ago
    On the other side of the door a happy surprise awaits the one who believes and enters. For from the inside, anyone glancing back can see these words from Ephesians written above the door: “Chosen in Christ before the foundation of the world” (1:4). Election is best understood in hindsight, for it is only after coming to Christ that we can look and know that we have been chosen in Christ. Those who make a decision for Christ find that the triune God made a decision for them in eternity past. In the words of an anonymous hymn from the nineteenth century
