    In this paper, I will briefly explore and reflect on Don MacDonald, OFM’s notes on “The Transformative Experience ([i.e. the emergence of belief in the] Trinity).” In order to do this, I will begin by examining the five key points that MacDonald identifies in the resume that he presents in his notes which are: “A Dual Paradox,” “The Experience of the Cross,” “The Experience of the Resurrection,” “The Experience of the Trinity,” and “The Christian Experience of the Spirit.” Each of these points addresses an important aspect in how the Christian Trinitarian faith gradually emerged. After looking at each of these points, I will conclude this paper with a short reflection on why I think that MacDonald’s explanation for the disciples’ belief in the Trinity is both logical and reasonable.…

    A sacrament is a tangible connection between Heaven and Earth along with how God's love and essence is physically here on Earth. Jesus Christ is the essence of God on Earth in human form. He preaches the ideas and serves as the son of God to his kingdom. When people preach, serve, and worship, God's power is present and the people remember what Jesus was all about when he was on Earth and therefore what God was all about. The concept of God is spread through ideas like the Pentecost, Paul and his conversion, and even in the catacombs of Rome.…

    Kathleen Hughes article she reflects upon Pope Paul VI’s powerful metaphor with relation to the Rite of Penance – Walking on the edge of two great abysses – sin and love, sin and grace and death and resurrection. Reconciliation is an invitation to plunge into God’s mercy, love and forgiveness and deepen our friendship with Christ. Sin represents everything that destroys our friendship with God. Reconciliation repairs our relationship with God. Reconciliation begins when a person is incorporated into the body of Christ at baptism. We maintain and strengthen this relationship through the eucharist and reconciliation. Eucharist is the regular sacrament that renews and strengthens our baptismal reconciliation. We have the sacrament of ‘reconciliation’ when we do something to damage our union with Christ, to restore the relationship. This is how the sacrament of reconciliation is a ‘sacrament of conversion’.…

    Before the official institution of baptism as a sacrament by Christ, converts to Judaism were baptized by Saint John the Baptist as an external sign of reconciliation and repentance, adding their own words of atonement. The first baptism had no sacramental qualities, but Our Lord Himself received this first baptism in order to show the necessity for His modification and institution of the sacrament of baptism. This institution is said to have taken place at the very time of Christ’s baptism in the Jordan River. As St. John conducted the material part of the process, the three persons of the Trinity completed the form and the Heavens opened to reveal the Holy Spirit, a sign of the effects of baptism. John baptized with water, but Christ and His apostles baptized with the Holy Spirit, indicated in the twenty-eighth chapter of Matthew, verses eighteen through twenty.…
