Trinity and Simplicity: a musing
I’ve written in depth on this issue before. But today I just want to muse briefly about this issue. Especially since I just invented the DEU today and didn’t have this tool before. It’s implications are evident precisely here, at the intersection of Trinity and Simplicity.
The harmonization of trinity and simplicity is achieved by recognizing that the three Persons of the Trinity share a single divine essence while maintaining their distinct personal existence. The shared essence is the foundational act of being, and the distinct personal existences are manifestations, presentations, and representations -in unity- of this foundational act in relation. If one were to leverage the DEU, then they would see that the Christian intuition to live within the golden mean of transcendence and immanence is completely doable.
