The Holy Trinity explained by Padre Pio

THE HOLY TRINITY, MIRABLY EXPLAINED BY FATHER PIO TO A SPIRITUAL DAUGHTER.

“Father, this time I did not come to confess, but to be enlightened by the many doubts of Faith that torment me. Especially on the Mystery of the Holy Trinity ".

The Father from the Stigmata replied:

“My daughter, it is very difficult to explain mysteries, precisely because they are mysteries.
We cannot understand them with our small intelligence ".

But he communicated to Giovanna the great "mystery" in a way that we can define, very "housewife"

“Take for example a housewife
- continued Padre Pio.
What does a housewife do to make bread? It takes flour, baking powder and water, three distinct elements between them.

Flour is not yeast or water.
Yeast is not flour or water.
Water is neither flour nor yeast.

But by massing together the three elements, distinct from each other, only one substance is formed.

With this pasta you make three loaves, which have the same and identical substance, but, in reality, they are distinct in form from each other.

From this similarity let us now go to the Holy Trinity - continued Padre Pio - and therefore:

“God is One in Nature but Triune in People, equal and distinct from One.

Consequently, the Father is neither the Son nor the Holy Spirit.
The Son is neither the Father nor the Holy Spirit.
The Holy Spirit is neither the Father nor the Son.

And now follow me well - continued Padre Pio:
The Father generates the Son;
the Son is begotten of the Father;
the Holy Spirit proceeds from the Father and the Son.

They are, however, three equal and distinct persons but above all they are one God, because the Divine nature is unique and identical "
