-...y del Hijo: Colocamos la mano en el pecho, donde está el

corazón, que simboliza al amor. Recordamos con ello que por

amor a los hombres, Jesucristo se encarnó, murió y resucitó para

librarnos del pecado y llevarnos a la vida eterna. -...Y del Espíritu Santo: Colocamos la mano en el hombre iz-

quierdo y luego en el derecho, recordando que el Espíritu Santo

nos ayuda a cargar con el peso de nuestra vida, el que nos ilumi-

na y nos da la gracia para vivir de acuerdo a los mandatos de

Jesucristo. ¿Donde se encuentra la doctrina de la Santísima Trinidad en la

Biblia? De manera directa, no se va a encontrar pero de manera indirecta

si. La evidencia en los Evangelios culmina en la comisión bautis-

mal de Mt. 28,19. Es evidente a partir de la narración de

los evangelistas que Cristo sólo dio a conocer la verdad a

los Doce paso a paso. Primero, les enseñó a reconocer en sí mis-

mo al eterno Hijo de Dios. Al final de su ministerio, prometió

que el Padre enviaría en su lugar a otra Persona Divina,

el Espíritu Santo. Finalmente después de su Resurrección, reveló

la doctrina en términos explícitos, mandándolos a "ir y enseñar a

todas las naciones, bautizando en el nombre del Padre, y del

Hijo, y del Espíritu Santo" (Mateo 28,19). La fuerza de este pa-

saje es decisiva. Que "el Padre" y "el Hijo" son personas distin-

tas se deduce de los términos mismos, los cuales son mutuamen-

te excluyentes. La mención del Espíritu Santo en la misma serie,

y la conexión de los nombres entre sí por la conjunción "y...y" es

evidencia de que tenemos aquí una Tercera Persona co-ordenada

con el Padre y el Hijo, y excluyen del todo la suposición que los

Apóstoles entendieron al Espíritu Santo no como una Persona

distinta, sino como Dios visualizado en su acción sobre las cria-

turas.

La frase "en el nombre" afirma asimismo la Divinidad de las

Personas y su unidad de naturaleza.

¿Cuál es la enseñanza de la solemnidad de la Santísima Trini-

dad? Estamos más que seguro que la Iglesia es el lugar donde se reali-

za el designio eterno de la Trinidad. Nosotros tenemos que vivir

a su imagen, si, reconociendo nuestras diferencias personales,

logramos estar unificados por el amor; por un amor que sea par-

ticipación de aquel amor con el que las personas divinas se aman

eternamente.

Si se ve tan claramente la unidad en el misterio de la Santísima

Trinidad, por qué no busques la unidad en tu comunidad? La

Santísima Trinidad te está haciendo esta suplica en su fiesta hoy,

dale gusto para que la fiesta tenga sentido para ti.

Noticias: El grupo de jóvenes de nuestra parroquia se está re-

uniendo ahora a las 3 pm en la Iglesia de abajo. Que

ningún joven se quede sin participar en algo, sino la fe

no se va a fortalecer. Están todos invitados.

Bendito sea Dios! Tenemos una sección en español en el

boletín para los hispanos. SOLEMNIDAD DE LA SANTISIMA TRINIDAD La Iglesia dedica el siguiente domingo después de Pentecostés a la

celebración del día de la SANTISIMA TRINIDAD. Es un gran

misterio. Un misterio es todo aquello que no podemos entender con la ra-

zón. Es algo que sólo podemos comprender cuando Dios nos lo

revela. El misterio de la Santísima Trinidad: Un sólo Dios en tres Perso-

nas distintas, es el misterio central de la fe y de la vida cristiana,

pues es el misterio de Dios en Sí mismo. Los Apóstoles fueron los primeros que entendieron este misterio.

Después de la Resurrección, comprendieron que Jesús era el Sal-

vador enviado por el Padre. Y, cuando experimentaron la acción

del Espíritu Santo dentro de sus corazones en Pentecostés, com-

prendieron que el único Dios era Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo. Nosotros los católicos creemos que la Trinidad es Una. No cree-

mos en tres dioses, sino en un sólo Dios en tres Personas distintas.

No es que Dios esté dividido en tres, pues cada una de las tres

Personas es enteramente Dios. Padre, Hijo y Espíritu Santo tienen la misma naturaleza, la misma

divinidad, la misma eternidad, el mismo poder, la misma perfec-

ción; son un sólo Dios. Además, sabemos que cada una de las Per-

sonas de la Santísima Trinidad está totalmente contenida en las

otras dos, pues hay una comunión perfecta entre ellas. Con todo, las personas de la Santísima Trinidad son distintas entre

sí, dada la diversidad de su misión: Dios Hijo, por quien son todas

las cosas, es enviado por Dios Padre, es nuestro Salvador. Dios

Espíritu Santo, en quien son todas las cosas, es el enviado por el

Padre y por el Hijo, es nuestro Santificador. Lo vemos claramente en la Creación, en la Encarnación y en Pen-

tecostés En la Creación, Dios Padre está como principio de todo lo que

existe. En la Encarnación, Dios se encarna, por amor a nosotros, en Jesús,

para liberarnos del pecado y llevarnos a la vida eterna. En Pentecostés, el Padre y el Hijo se hacen presentes en la vida del

hombre en la Persona del Espíritu santo, cuya misión es santificar-

nos, iluminándonos y ayudándonos con sus dones a alcanzar la

vida eterna. Para explicar este gran misterio, existen ciertos símbolos que son

entendibles a nuestra razón: La Santísima Trinidad es simbolizada

como un triángulo. Cada uno de los vértices es parte del mismo triángulo y sin embar-

go cada uno es distinto. ¿Qué hacemos al persignarnos? "En el nombre del Padre y del

Hijo y del Espíritu Santo" Es costumbre de los católicos repetir

frecuentemente estas palabras, principalmente al principio y al fin

de nuestras acciones. Cada vez que hacemos la Señal de la Cruz sobre nuestro cuerpo,

recordamos el misterio de la Santísima Trinidad. - En el nombre del Padre: Ponemos la mano sobre la frente, seña-

lando el cerebro que controla todo nuestro cuerpo, recordando en

forma simbólica que Dios es la fuente de nuestra vida.
