Christian Polytheism
#17
RE: Christian Polytheism
Unfortunately, the English word ‘person’ connotes the idea of individuality which causes the confusion. This is not the case with the Latin word ‘persona’, which means mask. This etymology makes clear that the original concept is that of the One presenting itself in three distinguishable ways. In New Church theology, the Father refers to His Being-In-Himself, the Son is the image of the One presented to us, and the Holy Spirit is what God does.
