Trinity

Christianity

In Christianity, the Trinity refers to the fact that God exists in three different beings (he is simultaneously Father, Son and Holy Spirit).

Trinity is a concept with etymological roots in the Latin term trinĭtas that is used in Christianity to name the trio of divine persons who exist in the same essence .

The notion, which is written with an initial capital letter, constitutes a dogma of this religion and maintains that God exists in three different beings: he is Father , Son and Holy Spirit . Also known as the Holy Trinity , this dogma maintains the monotheism of Christianity since there is still only one God , although with three dimensions.

Explanation of the Trinity

Theologians explain that the Father is eternal: he has no end, but neither beginning (he was never created or begotten). The Son , however, was eternally begotten by the Father . The Holy Spirit , finally, neither has creation nor generation, but rather proceeds from the Father or from the Father and the Son , according to the aspect of Christianity. The three beings make up the Trinity .

It is important to keep in mind that in religions prior to Christianity, the idea of ​​a divine triad was already used. In Hinduism , the trinity is known as Trimurti and refers to the three main divinities: Shiva , Vishnu and Brahma .
