Practical value of the doctrine of the trinity
In my opinion the doctrine of the Trinity is a practical doctrine. It shows us what God is like and enlightens us about what we should be like. It states about the kind of God we bow down to and the way God interact with us and with this entire universe. The more we understand what the Bible tells us about the Father, Son, and the Holy Spirit, the practical values of this doctrine become more and more clear. The doctrine of the Trinity teaches us the true meaning of love by teaching us the sacrificial nature of God.
Practical values for the church or believers
The Trinity serves as a model for the church and we try to apply the Trinity in our everyday life as the believers
Doctrine differentiates between the religion of Christianity and rest of the religions. It improves our understanding of morality and justice. The Trinity doctrine highlights the importance of relationship that we have with God and His creation. It also guides us in our daily matters and teaches us how to be righteous and considerate towards God’s creation. The trinity doctrine also demonstrates the real meaning behind holiness. It helps us in our prayers. We can identify the object of our worship in the Trinity with the help of this doctrine.
The doctrine of the Trinity can be intimidating to describe, but its recompense is equally great. When we see the beauty of its teachings, we realize how its implications are stretched in widening circles. I.e. from the reason for our existence to the way we lead our lives, from our behavior with one another, to the way we relate to other religions.
