NOTES
traditional worship

Last Sunday was Pentecost which marked the end

of the fifty days of Eastertide. The coming of the
Holy Spirit birthed the Church as believers from
many nations and tongues gathered in Jerusalem.
During the first centuries of the Church, there was
considerable argument as to the deity of Christ and
the role of the Holy Spirit. A man by the name of Arius
argued that Jesus was a created being (modern day
Jehovah Witness belief). This heresy was denied and
the Council of Nicea in 325 AD affirmed the biblical
view of Jesus as both fully God and fully man. Trinity
Sunday arose partly out of that controversy. Pope John
XXII established Trinity Sunday as the Sunday after
Pentecost in the 14th century. Our opening hymn is
reflective of this great truth with the first three verses
referring to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
The final verse addresses the One in Three. You will
note that in every service of worship, we specifically
address the Trinity at some point. The Trinity is one of
the great mysteries of the godhead for the Scriptures
clearly teach there is one God and in that godhead
are three distinct persons, each with a specific role
to play in creation and redemption. You will note
that Dr. Swansons benediction always ends in the
name (singular) of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
Matthew closes his gospel with Jesus own words in
which He calls His disciples to baptize in the name of
the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.
