Who Do Catholics Pray to? The Father, the Son, or the Holy Ghost?Completed Tasks 1. Lion Mitzvahs 1. Halacha (Continued...) I think that part of Jesus' character is that it's mysterious whether he's God or not. He *might have been,* but we aren't quite sure. The belief is that he was God coming to visit His people in disguise, not necessarily to prove that he was God, but to be close to us, and to shepherd us to salvation despite our past mistakes. He's kind of like Moses, except for the whole world instead of just the Jewish people. He leads us out of slavery to sin, whereas Moses led the Jewish people out of slavery in Egypt. He dies on the cross so we will feel sorry for our sins and to inspire us to repent, not because he wanted to die, but because of the Suffering Servant prophesy in Isaiah 53. RE: Who Do Catholics Pray to? The Father, the Son, or the Holy Ghost? It's a trick question. They pray to God who isn't necessarily any of the persons, just God in general. Technically it's only ever possible for Christians to encounter God's Holy Ghost. You never actually see God, hear Him, or feel Him. Instead, your mind manifests His divine spiritual energy into something you can perceive, which can be anything. Your mind might even manifest His divine energy as our Mother of Sorrows, it's really not specific. RE: Who Is Christ? Is He God or God's Son? Christ is one of God's personified attributes (the Word of God), so he is God and is also distinct from God. He offers his suffering on earth to God eternally, particularly on the cross, for the forgiveness of sins. The idea is that suffering has value in some way, and so it can be offered for a particular intention, whatever that is. Christ's intention was that God would forgive us, and so we ask God for forgiveness based on his merits. How God is Both One and Three at the Same Time [Animated Explainer] - YouTube He *is* God's son, but it's metaphorical. God's son is only defined by being the personified Word of God, which is God. If God did truly have a son who was also a god, we would be bitheist instead of monotheist, so it doesn't work that way. The Christian God is the Blessed Trinity: The Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. It's a sacred mystery so it isn't explained, but basically each of them is fully God (as opposed to 1/3 of God) without there being three Gods. In other words, the son Jesus Christ is the creator of heaven and earth in His entirety, regardless of if the other two exist or not. I recommend just focusing on Jesus Christ and the Blessed Virgin Mary, since they're the main figures of the faith. The Trinity explained in 5 minutes - YouTube |
