Francis Schaeffer and the Trinity

July 30th, 2005

Louis Parkhurst wrote,
“To answer some of the standard qwuestions abnout the Trinity, Dr. Schaeffer woujld say that belief in the Trinity means that God has always existed in a personal, loving relationship as three Persons. God is whole and complete. God did not need to create in order to have something to love or relate to. God created from his own free will and not from necessity………The Trinity answers the questions modern man poses. Christians didn’t invent the Trinity to answer modern man’s questions, but christians discovered that the doctrine of the Trinity [which they found in the Bible ] answers modern man’s questions and solves his problems.”[Francis Schaeffer, the Man and His Message, p. 147 Louis Parkhurst]
