We stand before God as a community of people The ultimate revelation we have from Christ is that God is one but never alone. The Holy Trinity is an eternal loving community of Persons in one Essence that we are supposed to emulate on earth, rather than self-love that is the hallmark of human nature. (cf Mat 5:48)

The ultimate revelation we have from Christ is that God is one but never alone. The Holy Trinity is an eternal loving community of Persons in one Essence that we are supposed to emulate on earth, rather than self-love that is the hallmark of human nature. (cf Mat 5:48) How sad that this truth of the faith is lost on Protestantism, by and large, due to the Western concept of individuality and selfishness.
