J.N.writes:"Iamsendingyouquestions whichsomeofmyfriendsatworkaskedme. Iansweredthemasbestcould,butthey arestillnotsatisfied."Heenclosessix questions,threeofwhichshalldealwith brieflythisevening,leavingtheremaining threetoafutureoccasion.
Thefirstquestionisthemostdifficult onethathaseverbeenaskedinthissession, andlistenersmustbearwithmeifIbeg themtoconcentrateforafewminutes.He asks:"WhatistheTrinity?"
R.:TheTrinitymeansisGod,theHolyGhostis thattherearethreedivine persons,yetonlyoneGod; oneinnature,threeinperson.Letseewhatwemean bythewords"nature"and "person."IfJohnBrown isgoingdownthestreetand you,pointingtohim,ask me:"whatisthat?"Ianswer:"Thatisaman."I amreferringtohisnature, whatheis,notwhoheis.
Butifyouaskmewho heis,Ianswer"ThatisJohn Brown."NowIampointingouttheperson,notthe natureorkindofbeing. Henceweseethat"nature" tellsuswhatabeingis, whatkindofbeingitis: man,horseorcat.
"Person,"onthecontrary, tellsuswhothatbeingis; itisJohnBrown,notTom Smith.Now,inourhuman experience,everymanhas onenatureandisoneperson;inman,natureand personcoalesceinoneconcretelivingbeing,John Brown.
NotsoinGod;there, natureandpersondonot coalesceinonelivingbeing. ThereisbutoneGod,one innature;yetthreepersons possessthatonedivine nature,andeachnossessesit initstotality.Theydonot justshareit.
JohnBrownmustthink withhisownmind,love withhisownwill;hecannotthinkwithyourmind, norlovewithyourwill.But withthethreePersonsof theTrinitythisisnotso. Thereisbutonedivine nature,onedivinemind,one divinewill.ThethreePersonseachusetheonemind toknowwith,theonewillto lovewith;forthereisbut theonedivinenature.
Therearenotthreegods, butoneGod.Thethree Personsthenarenotseparate.Buttheyaredistinct.
TheFatherisGod,theSon a
God.ButtheFatherisnot theSon,northeSonthe HolyGhost,northeHoly GhosttheFather.Ina word:oneGodinthree equalpersons. Allthisis,ofcourse, highlymysterioustous.In factitisthedeepestmysterythatexists.Weshould neverdreamofitifGad Himselfhadnotrevealedit tous.Butbecausewecannotunderstandit,thatisno reasonwhyweshouldbe scepticalaboutit.Theworld isfullofminormysteries whichwecannotunderstand.
Youcannottellmewhat electricityis,norgravity, norether,norlight,nor dozensofotherbasicthings weuse.Muchmoreshould weexpectinGodfacts whichourpunyintellect cannotfathom.Amouse cannotpossiblyunderstand whoyouare,orhowyour mindworks,orwhatyou arethinkingof-because themouseismuchbelow youinthescaleofliving beings.
ButweareinfinitelybelowGodinthescaleof beings.Wemustexpect thereforethatthereare thingsaboutGodwhichwe cannotunderstand-even thoughHedeignstotellus aboutthem.Indeedifwe couldunderstandthedepths ofGoditwouldbemost disappointing;Hewouldnot bethelimitlessGod;He wouldbejustabitabove ourselves.Andwhowants tospendeternitycontemplatingabeingjustslightly superiortohimself?
Infact,however,the truthaboutGodislikean endlessgalleryintowhich wecan,inthislifeandthe next,advanceeverdeeper, tothegreatenrichmentof ourminds,buttotheend ofwhichweshallnever
come.ThedepthofGod's truthisbeyondmeasure, andinthatliesourguaranteeagainststagnationof themind;itguaranteesto ourmindsthepossibilityof progressthroughalleternity.
AsItIsInHeaven Yournextquestionis "WhydoCatholicsreceive onlytheBodyofChristat HolyCommunionandnot HisBlood?"
R.:Theansweristhat yourassumptionisfalse. CatholicsDOreceiveboth theBodyandBloodof ChristinHolyCommunion, eventhoughtheCatholic laitydonotpartakeofthe cup.Itisquitefalseto thinkthatonlythebloodof Christisinthechaliceor cup,orthatonlytheBody ofChristliesundertheoutwardappearancesofbread. TheBodyandBloodof Christarebothinthe chalice,andbothareinthe seeming-waferyoureceive atHolyCommunion.
JustasattheLastSupper,sotooatthewordsof consecration,"ThisisMy Body,"thebreadbecomes theBodyofChrist,butthe BodyofChristasitistodayinHeaven;notabloodlessbody.Andatthe words,"ThisisMyBlood," thewinebecomestheBlood ofChrist,notasitwasin thetomb-separatedfrom HisBody-butasitnowis inheaven,coursingthrough HisBodyandvivifyingit. Thetwo,BodyandBlood, areinseparableinheaven today;theyarealsoinseparableinHolyCommunion.
YouareprobablyconfusingtheSacrificeofthe Mass,anditsdoubleconsecration,withtheSacramentofHolyCommunion. AfewmonthsagoIspoke onthisquestionatgreater length.Thisyouwillfind reprintedin"TheRecord" ofNovember4.
Yourthirdquestion,"Is theHolyGhostaperson,"I haveansweredwhendealingwithyourfirstquery. Yes,HeisaPerson,distinct fromtheFatherandthe Son,notseparatebutformingwiththemoneGod.I amnotsurewhetheryou wanteda"Yes-no"reply,as Ihavegiven,orwhether youwishedmetosaysomethingmorefullyaboutthe HolyGhost.Ifyourequire more,pleaseletmeknow.
