    CATECHISMS

    WHAT IS A CATECHISM?
    It simply means to teach biblical truth in
    an orderly way. Generally this is done with
    questions and answers accompanied by
    biblical support and explanation.
    WHY IS THIS
    IMPORTANT?
    BECAUSE WE ARE BEING
    CATECHIZED BY THE WORLD
    24/7
    THE AUTHORITIES OR POWERS
    OF THIS WORLD ARE
    EXCELLENT TEACHERS
    (CATECHIZERS)
    BUT THEY ARE ALSO
    EXCELLENT LIARS
    ...Let God be true though every one
    were a liar.... (Romans 3:4)

    Scripture: (Deut. 6:4; Jer. 10:10)

    Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one.


    (Deut. 6:4)
    Q. 7. In how many persons does this one God
    exist?
    A. In three persons.

    Q. 8. What are they?


    A. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.

    Scripture: (Matt. 28:19-20; 2 Corinthians 13:14)


    Go therefore and make disciples of all nations,
    baptizing them in the name of the Father and of
    the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to
    observe all that I have commanded you. And
    behold, I am with you always, to the end of the
    age.”
    (Matt. 28:19-20)
    The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of
    God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with
    you all.
    (2 Corinthians 13:14)
    There are actually seven statements that go
    into the doctrine of the Trinity:
    1. God is one. There’s only one God.
    2. The Father is God.
    3. The Son is God.
    4. The Holy Spirit is God.
    5. The Father is not the Son.
    6. The Son is not the Spirit.
    7. The Spirit is not the Father.
    If you get those seven statements, then
    you’ve captured the doctrine of the Trinity—
    what it means when we say there is one God
    and three persons.
    One is not the other, but they’re equal in
    rank, equal in power, equal in glory, equal in
    majesty.
    Just as Jesus sends out the disciples to go
    baptize in the name of the Father, and of the
    Son, and of the Holy Spirit, we see this
    doctrine of the Holy Trinity woven
    throughout the Scriptures.
    WHY IS THE DOCTRINE
    OF THE TRINITY
    IMPORTANT?
    3 REASONS
    (1) The Trinity helps us to understand how there
    can be unity in diversity... The Trinity shows
    us that you can have a profound, real, organic
    unity with diversity, so that the Father, Son,and
    Holy Spirit are working in complete union in our
    salvation.
    The Father appoints. The Son accomplished. The
    Spirit applies. We encounter God as fully God in
    the Father, in the Son, and in the Holy Spirit. And
    yet, their divine work is neither interchangeable
    nor redundant.
    (2) When you have a triune God, you have the
    eternality of love. Love has existed from all
    time....So love is not a created thing. God didn’t
    have to go outside of himself to love. Love is
    eternal. And when you have a triune God, you
    have fully this God who is love.
    (3) The doctrine of the Trinity is crucial for the
    Christian because there is nothing more
    important in all the world than knowing
    God....In the end, the Trinity matters because
    God matters.
    Q. 6. Are there more gods than one?
    A. There is only one God.

    Q. 7. In how many persons does this one God


    exist?
    A. In three persons.

    Q. 8. What are they?


    A. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost.
    Q. 6. Are there more gods than one?
    A.

    Q. 7. In how many persons does this one God


    exist?
    A.

    Q. 8. What are they?


    A.
    To the great one in three
    Eternal praises be
    Hence - evermore!
    His sov'reign Majesty
    May we in glory see,
    And to eternity
    Love and adore!
    PRAYER

    Father, Son, and Spirit, you are beyond our


    understanding. Thank you for bringing us
    into your love, a love that existed before the
    world in your three perfect persons. Amen.
