The meaning of the holiday of the Holy Trinity and its history
On the fiftieth day after his resurrectionJesus sent the Holy Spirit to the apostles, who comforted them in the grief of loss. The house where the disciples of Jesus were more than two thousand years ago was filled with the noisy wind and fiery tongues that touched each of the apostles of Christ. The disciples of Jesus, filled with the Holy Spirit, began to glorify teachers in different languages, previously unfamiliar to themselves and incomprehensible to local people. The Lord Jesus gave his apostles the power and knowledge to continue preaching the teaching of Christ to other nations. The manifestation of the Holy Spirit has strengthened people in their faith. The day that these events took place is called Pentecost or the Holy Trinity. The name "Pentecost" is associated with the fifty days that have passed since the glorious resurrection of Jesus until the day of the appearance of the Holy Spirit. The Holy Trinity is a symbol of the Orthodox faith and God, one in God the Father, God the Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit.
With the appearance of the Holy Spirit, a mystery was revealed to the peopleand they have received sight, believing that God is one and is in three persons. The descent of fiery tongues - the Holy Spirit - was the completion of the holy work of saving people, for which Christ - the son of God - came to them, was crucified, died and rose again. The day of Pentecost begins the history of the Christian church. Having been filled with the Holy Spirit, the apostles went to the world to preach the Gospel, the teaching of Christ. All the while the apostles traveled, spreading the word of Christ throughout the world, Jesus helped them by showing various miracles. The apostles could transmit their blessed power of knowledge to successors, laying their hands upon them. Wherever the disciples of Christ appeared with preaching and teaching, they appointed ministers of the Church of Christ, who themselves began to gather their flock and preach to them the Word of God. They could baptize people, confess them and let the sins repent. Christianity spread throughout the world. The grace of the apostles and the Holy Spirit has survived to this day, and will live forever. The grace of the Lord, the Holy Spirit, descended on the day of the Trinity (Pentecost) is transmitted today from one priest to another. The trinity 2016 will again fulfill all Christians by faith and hope of salvation.
