BE 120 - the holy truth

BE 120
There appeared a magnificent palace,
and in its inmost a temple.
In the midst of the latter was a table of gold,
upon which was the Word,
beside which two angels were standing.
Around it were seats in three rows:
the seats of the first row were covered with silken cloth of a purple color;
the seats of the second row, with silken cloth, of a blue color;
and the seats of the third row, with white cloth.
Under the roof, high above the table,
there appeared a widespread canopy, shining with precious stones,
from the splendor of which there shone forth as it were a rainbow,
as when heaven clears up after a shower.

. . . we have clearly seen, and so acknowledge as the holy truth,
that in the Lord God the Saviour Jesus Christ there is a Divine Trinity,
which is the Divine from which, that is called the Father;
the Divine Human, which is the Son;
and the proceeding Divine, which is the Holy Spirit, crying out,
That in Jesus Christ dwells all the fullness of the Divinity bodily (Col. 2:9).
Thus there is one God in the church.
