About this work

Author: Gregory Thaumaturgus

XX.

And that the holy Trinity is to be

‹ Section 19 Section 21 ›

worshipped

without

either

separation

or

alienation

,

is

taught

us

by

Paul

,

who

says

in

his

Second

Epistle

to

the

Corinthians

:

“

The

grace

of

our

Lord

Jesus

Christ

,

and

the

love

of

God

,

and

the

communion

of

the

Holy

Ghost

,

be

with

you

all

.

”

And

again

,

in

that

epistle

he

makes

this

explanation

:

“

Now

He

which

stablisheth

us

with

you

in

Christ

,

and

hath

anointed

us

,

is

God

,

who

hath

also

sealed

us

,

and

given

the

earnest

of

the

Spirit

in

our

hearts

.

”

And

still

more

clearly

he

writes

thus

in

the

same

epistle

:

“

When

Moses

is

read

,

the

veil

is

upon

their

heart

.

Nevertheless

when

it

shall

turn

to

the

Lord

,

the

veil

shall

be

taken

away

.

Now

the

Lord

is

that

Spirit

;

and

where

the

Spirit

of

the

Lord

is

,

there

is

liberty

.

But

we

all

with

open

face

beholding

as

in

a

glass

the

glory

of

the

Lord

,

are

changed

into

the

same

image

,

from

glory

to

glory

,

even

as

by

the

Spirit

of

the

Lord

.
