This article introduces and analyzes Karl Rahner’s understanding of the Trinity. The article also makes a critical evaluation of Rahner’s theology of the Trinity. According to Rahner, Neo-Scholastic theology understood salvation history in an exclusive and theoretical way. As a result, there was a sort of isolation which separated the mystery of the Trinity from Christian life. Rahner believes that this was not a theology concerning the Trinity but only of Theism. At the time, this almost Unitarian approach was rampant in Christian consciousness. Rahner emphasizes that the Trinity is a mystery of salvation and his view provides the following basic thesis(Grundaxiom) regarding the Trinity, namely, “the ‘economic’ Trinity is the ‘immanent’ Trinity and the ‘immanent’ Trinity is the ‘economic’ Trinity”(Die ‘ökonomische’ Trinität ist die immanente Trinität und umgekehrt). Rahner’s new theory is a reconstruction of both the method and the structure of the Trinity. Rahner asserts that the Trinity must be seen through the lens of economic salvation, which is the incarnation of the Son and the mission of the Spirit. Rahner believes that in order to understand salvation history a theology of the Trinity needs to be central to a discussion of revelation history since two inter-mediating beings, namely, Logos and Spirit of the Old Testament, who are united and distinguished with God, are revealed as real God. Rahner emphasizes that the Trinity is not understood with philosophical concepts but by starting with experiences of revelation and creation. If the concept of “persona” applies exclusively to a theology of the Trinity without any consideration of the mystery of revelation, Rahner warns that the Trinity could simply be understood as “Tritheism”. Then, the theology of God found in Neo-Scholastic theology, which distinguishes De Deo uno from De Deo trino, is formed by reflecting on the nature of God. However, Rahner stresses that the distinction and unity of Father, Son and Spirit should be considered as starting from the one God ― namely the Father as o` qeόj ― within the context of economic salvation. Rahner bases his systematic theology of the Trinity on scripture, the Eastern tradition, magisterial teaching, the Trinitarian experiences of the saints, and on Christian liturgy and life. From the context of economic salvation, Rahner reflects on God’s self-communication. Based on anthropology he explains his reflections on fourfold group of dual aspects, namely, Origin- Future, History-Transcendence, Invitation-Acceptance and Knowledge-Love. Each of these four double aspects is about God’s self-communication. God’s self-communication gives direction of one’s origin to the human being as addressee and in the direction towards the full future; God’s self- communication takes place within each human being as a transcendence- being in history; God’s self-communication is not only offering oneself to each human being at God’s side, but also accepting God’s self-offering at his or her side; God’s offering takes place corresponding with [human] knowledge and love which cannot be exchanged with one another. Rahner also states that four dual aspects of God’s self-communication operate in a way making them distinct from one another and making them relational with each other. These four dual-aspects are: Origin-history-invitation-truth on the one hand, and on the other hand, future-transcendence-acceptance-love. Origin-history-invitation can be unified because the divine offering of self-communication constructs the origin of world and of history and God’s self-communication becomes the eschatological origin of salvation history within the Logos incarnate. All of this is represented through the appearance of truth. Future-transcendenceacceptance shows that when God offers [God’s own self] to human beings and is accepted by human beings, God offers Oneself as eschatological comple
