People Are Individual and Social Beings

People Are Individual and Social Beings

Your social nature is rooted in the Trinity. It’s not irrelevant that the Trinity is a communion

People Are Individual and Social Beings

“I pray not only for them, but also for those who

will believe in me through their word, so that they may all be one, as

you, Father, are in me and I in you, that they also may be in us, that the world may believe that you sent me. And I have given them the glory you gave me, so that they may be one, as we are one, I in them and

you in me, that they may be brought to perfection as one, that the world may know that you sent me, and that you

loved them even as you love me.” (John 17:20-23)
