31. All nature
testifies to the Unity of God, inasmuch as the universe is one.
The Faith declares that there is one God, seeing that there is one
belief in both the Old and the New Testament. That there is one
Spirit, all holy, The Spirit here
spoken of is, according to Hurter’s interpretation, not the Third
Person of the Trinity, but the Triune God, Who is a Spirit
(John iv. 24; 2 Cor. iii.
17). grace
witnesseth, because there is one Baptism, in the Name of the
Trinity. The prophets proclaim, the apostles hear, the voice of
one God. In one God did the Magi believe, and they brought, in
adoration, gold, frankincense, and myrrh to Christ’s cradle,
confessing, by the gift of gold, His Royalty, and with the incense
worshipping Him as God. For gold is the sign of kingdom, incense
of God, myrrh of burial. Hymns A. and
M. 76, stanza 4.
