Man and Sin by Piet Schoonenberg (1964) 2.2 BU

[The nested form of the Triune God serves as the third model.

This model is open to further exploration.

Grace, like love, seems to belong to the design inherent in the normal context the Holy Spirit, who brings the Father and the Son into relation.

Grace also seems to belong to the Possibility of God’s Self-Recognition.

In this model, the word ‘grace’ points to ‘the bringing of actuality from the Possibility of God Recognizing Himself according to the Designs of the Holy Spirit’.

‘Grace’ differs from both ‘the Foundation of Love’ and ‘Love’.

Yet, belongs to both.]
