Rule: opera trinitatis ad extra indivisa sunt.

Even so:

Creation qua appropriated may be said to be the work

  • of the Father,
  • through the Son,
  • in the Holy Spirit.

Redemption qua appropriated may be said to be the work

  • of the Son,
  • from the Father,
  • through the Holy Spirit.

Sanctification qua appropriated may be said to be the work

  • of the Holy Spirit,
  • from the Father,
  • through the Son.

Consummation qua appropriated may be said to be the work

  • of the Father,
  • through the Son,
  • in the Holy Spirit.
