Trinitarian Salvation


Our salvation is put into effect by the Trinitarian economy of redemption. 

 In other words, each person of the Triune God plays a specific role. In brief, the Father plans redemption and directs it out of love for the Son. The Son accomplishes redemption in glorifying obedience to the Father. And the Holy Spirit applies redemption to us in fulfillment of the New Covenant promises.

 I compiled these lists of the major works of each person of the One Triune God in our salvation (with selected Scripture references) for the purpose of training leaders in churches. 


 The lists are also useful for personal Bible study, reading and reflecting, praying and praising the God of our great salvation! Print this out and take your time and enjoy!
