trinitarian

Our mind usually works on the principle of contradiction, wherein something cannot be both true and false at the same time. Yet that is exactly what higher truths are: God is both one and three; Jesus is both human and divine; bread and wine are both matter and Spirit.

Paul’s mystical experience dissolved the polarity of good and bad in his very person; he saw and believed himself as both sinner and saint. He loved to teach dialectically: weakness and strength, flesh and spirit, law and grace, faith and works, Jew and Greek, male and female.

Unfortunately, educated as we believe we are, we have lost touch with paradoxical, mystical, or contemplative thinking. We have wasted centuries taking sides.

Paul is the first clear successor to Jesus as a nondual teacher. He revealed the mystical foundations for Christianity – the mystery of our participation in Christ. Something that moves in us, though we are not aware.

The Pentecost is fulfilled in us when we awaken to the Trinitarian flow of life and love moving in, around, and through everything.

Romans 8:11 “The Spirit of God, who raised Jesus from the dead, lives in you. And just as God raised Christ Jesus from the dead, he will give life to your mortal bodies by this same Spirit living within you.”
