i really enjoyed this post and thought it was quite insightful and a good way to sort of understand the triology that we as catholics are taught to believe are one.. must say it always bothered me when we(catholics) would say i believe in one god, ..we are taught to believe in one god and thou shall not have any false gods…yet we are told that god is jesus father and jesus was conceived by the holy spirit i.e god , i.e. the father….he created heaven and earth, jesus is his son (man form),jesus was conceived by the holy spirit,so the holy spirit is god . and god is the father…i keep coming back to only 2 lets say divine beings(god and jesus).. then why do we bless ourselves and say in the name of the father , son and holy spirit, if the holy spirit is the father and the father is god…now im getting confused..i guess what im saying is that god is the holy spirit,jesus is our lord, at the end of the apostles creed we say i believe in the holy spirit, holy catholic church, etc…so who am i to pray to and worship??..im catholic and am told to have one god..if god is god and the holy spiritand the father, and jesus is our lord, and jesus rises from the dead to sit at the right of god and judge..then am i to pray to 2 holy ??? spirit also known as god and or jesus also known as the lord …in the beginning of the apostles creed we actually are saying that we believe and will worship 2 seperate spiritual whatever..we say i believe in god the father almighty etc..and i believe in jesus christ his only son our lord..so arent we saying right there that we believe in 2 divines?? and will worship and pray to both?? yet we are taught to believe (and if we dont its a sin )to have only one god, spirit, jesus whatever..so which is it???..
