3 fold Gospel

[JJM]

Hi everyone. I'm currently my father's sponsor for RCIA and at one of the meetings the priest said something about a 3 fold Gospel or something similar. I wanted to remember exactly what he said but I can't. I went back and looked over all of the writings that have been given out but I can't seem to find it. Does anyone know what I'm talking about? I know one of the things was scripture and I think the other two where Tradition but separated into two groups but I can't remember so I could be wrong about that.

Hi there.

I have done some snooping around, but could not find anything firm on this. I found various references, like the ones below, but nothing conrete. I also searched the Catechism online, and foind no hits.

Is it possible the priest was using it as a reference? I think the best course would be for you to phone the priest and ask him about it. Just because it's so unclear.

Here are the quotes I mentioned:

"We believe that [blank] School, as a Catholic school, shares in the three-fold mission of Jesus Christ - to proclaim the gospel message, to foster community, and to serve humankind."

"that each of us through our Baptism and Confirmation shares in the three-fold ministry of Jesus as Priest, Prophet and King.that each of us through our Baptism and Confirmation shares in the three-fold ministry of Jesus as Priest, Prophet and King."

Hope it helps!

Peace in Christ!

No sweat,sorry I wasn't any more help.

So, you are sponsoring your dad? Is he a convert? Nice one! I'd love to see my Dad convert to Catholocism.

Yeah he likes the way my faith has changed my life so after 16 years with my mom he's decided to join up. I guess St. Francis was right.

Preach the Gospel at all times and when necessary use words.

I don't know exactly what you are talking about, but I am a college student and just had a semester in theology. At one point we touched on where we get our theological references and there are three, including Scripture and tradition, so it may be what he was talking about. The third way was through contemporary culture, meaning trying to fit the Bible to relate in the world and culture of today. This obviously isn't very credible because of the problems that can arise, but nonetheless, is the third reference.

You know that gave me an Idea I think it was Scripture, Dogma and the magisterial teaching. But I'm goona ask my priest just to make sure.

Did he say three-fold godhead? Or was he referring to the synoptic gospels?

Now it was more like the good news being three fold. we have books that are called gospels but The Gospel is something more.

Is it something like "Christ has died, Christ has risen, Christ will come again?"

There's also Christus vincit, Christus regnat, Christus imperat.

Anyway, being a sponsor for your dad must be awesome. It's usually the other way around, and often with apathetic teens.

It was the ways in which Christ gives us his truth through Scripture, Tradition, and the magisterial teaching. I think that is what I was looking for.
