Christian doctrine of Trinity

Last updated on 10th Nov. 2019

An extract from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity :

The Christian doctrine of the Trinity holds that God is one God, but three coeternal consubstantial persons or hypostases — the Father, the Son (Jesus Christ), and the Holy Spirit — as "one God in three Divine persons". The three persons are distinct, yet are one "substance, essence or nature" (homoousios).

BBC Religions - https://www.bbc.co.uk/religion/religions/christianity/beliefs/trinity_1.shtml says, "The doctrine of the Trinity is the Christian belief that: There is One God, who is Father, Son, and Holy Spirit."

The above BBC Religions page also says, "many Christians admit they don't understand it (Trinity doctrine), while many more Christians don't understand it but think they do".

Note that there is a minority of Christians who do not hold the Trinity belief, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nontrinitarianism.

I hasten to add that I have great respect for Christians and the Christian faith and I do believe in the divinity of Lord Jesus Christ (my Hindu faith does not prevent me from viewing Jesus Christ as a divine figure).

In this post, I am just trying to share some info. on what I have read about a core belief of the majority of Christians as per the doctrine of the churches they are associated with.

Readers may want to read this related post: Hinduism sometimes is inaccurately described as polytheistic in comparison to Christianity which is described as monotheistic (somewhat inaccurately, some say) https://ravisiyer.blogspot.com/2019/11/hinduism-sometimes-is-inaccurately.html.
