A Better Understanding of The Holy Trinity | C.S. Lewis (Original Audio)

Honor The Legacy-    / @cs_lewis_legacy   In this essay, C.S. Lewis explores the nature of the Trinity and how it relates to our understanding of God and the purpose of Christianity. He begins by using the analogy of two books stacked on top of each other to explain how one can be the cause of the other without existing before it, illustrating the relationship between God the Father and God the Son. Lewis emphasizes that the Son is eternally begotten by the Father, existing simultaneously and eternally. Lewis then discusses the dynamic relationship within the Trinity, describing it as a vibrant, active union rather than a static state. This union is so profound that it generates the third Person of the Trinity, the Holy Spirit, who embodies the love between the Father and the Son. Lewis argues that this concept of a tri-personal God distinguishes Christianity from other religions, portraying God as a dynamic, relational being. The practical importance of this doctrine is that it reveals God as love, existing in a relationship of love within the Trinity. This love is extended to humanity through the incarnation of Jesus Christ. By becoming man, Christ enables humans to partake in the divine life, transforming them from mere creatures into sons of God. Lewis concludes that the goal of Christianity is for individuals to share in the life of Christ, becoming united with God and participating in the divine "dance" of the Trinity.
