Further, our word “person,” now referring to an individual human being,
was actually first used in Greek-based Trinitarian theology (persona =
stage mask or a “sounding through”), and later then applied also to us! So we
also are not autonomous beings, but soundings through, seemingly separate but
radically one, too, just as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are. The implications
could make for years of meditation. We really are created in God’s “image and
likeness” (Genesis 1:26f), much more than we ever imagined. Trinity is our
universal template for the nature of reality and for how to “one”!
