三位一体的三个位格之间是什么关系?

What is the relationship between the three persons of the Trinity?

简答 Short Answer

圣父、圣子、圣灵在永恒中彼此相爱、彼此荣耀。圣父计划救恩,圣子成就救恩,圣灵施行救恩——三个位格在完美合一中各有不同的角色。

Father, Son, and Spirit eternally love and glorify one another. The Father plans salvation, the Son accomplishes it, the Spirit applies it — three persons with distinct roles in perfect unity.

详细解答 Detailed Answer

三位一体内部的关系是神学家所说的「内在三一」(ontological Trinity)。圣父从永恒生了圣子,圣灵从圣父和圣子而出——这不是时间上的先后,而是永恒关系的描述。三个位格在本质、权能、荣耀上完全平等。

在救赎的工作中,我们看到「经世三一」(economic Trinity):圣父计划和差遣,圣子道成肉身、受死、复活,圣灵使人重生、内住、成圣。这种分工不意味着不平等,正如一个家庭中不同的角色不意味着不同的价值。

最令人惊叹的是,三位一体的上帝邀请我们进入祂们之间的爱的关系。耶稣在约翰福音17章的祷告中求天父,「使他们合而为一,正如我们合而为一」。救恩的目标不仅是免去刑罚,更是被接纳进入三位一体永恒的爱中。

The inner-Trinitarian relationship is what theologians call the 'ontological Trinity.' The Father eternally begets the Son, and the Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son — not a temporal sequence but a description of eternal relationships. The three persons are fully equal in essence, power, and glory.

In the work of redemption, we see the 'economic Trinity': the Father plans and sends, the Son becomes incarnate, dies, and rises, the Spirit regenerates, indwells, and sanctifies. This division of labor doesn't imply inequality, just as different roles in a family don't imply different worth.

Most amazingly, the Triune God invites us into their loving relationship. In Jesus's prayer in John 17, He asks the Father 'that they may be one, just as we are one.' Salvation's goal is not merely escape from punishment but being welcomed into the eternal love of the Trinity.
