J.M.J. + O.B.T. + M.G.R.*
In Paragraphs 234-235, The Catechism of the Catholic Church states:
234 The mystery of the Most Holy Trinity is the central
mystery of Christian faith and life. It is the mystery of God in himself. It is
therefore the source of all the other mysteries of faith, the light that
enlightens them. It is the most fundamental and essential teaching in the
"hierarchy of the truths of faith".56 The whole history of salvation
is identical with the history of the way and the means by which the one true
God, Father, Son and Holy Spirit, reveals himself to men "and reconciles
and unites with himself those who turn away from sin".57
235 This paragraph expounds briefly (I) how the mystery of
the Blessed Trinity was revealed, (II) how the Church has articulated the
doctrine of the faith regarding this mystery, and (III) how, by the divine
missions of the Son and the Holy Spirit, God the Father fulfills the "plan
of his loving goodness" of creation, redemption and sanctification.
Oh how I wish our Catholic blogsphere would embrace the triple cord reality of these three superessential words.
Non-denominationals are getting it:
Sincerely yours in Jesus through Mary,
Mike Rizzio
Imitate Mary
Become like Jesus
Live for the Triune God
Seek the Light of Our Lord Jesus Christ
See you on the High Ground!

O Beata Trinitas;
St. Michael, St. Gabriel and St. Raphael
