Synopsis

A Concise Guide to the Work of the Trinity and the Doctrine of Inseparable Operations It’s crucial that believers understand the work of the Trinity in the world and in their everyday lives. In this concise introduction to the doctrine of inseparable operations, Matthew Emerson and Brandon Smith assert that the three persons of the Trinity are eternally the one God of Scripture and act inseparably in creation, salvation, and all other acts of God. Addressing complex questions―such as What does it mean that the Father is one with the Son, but is not the same person as the Son?―they present a refreshing, biblical view of the one triune God and his unified work in revelation, providence, creation, salvation, mission, communion, sanctification, and judgment.

One of the most important subjects for Christians to consider is the doctrine of the holy Trinity. St. Augustine wrote, “And I would make this pious and safe agreement … above all, in the case of those who inquire into the unity of the Trinity, of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit; because......more
