In this episode Larry and James talk about the nature of love.
From the transcript...
Well, yeah, he was talking about, like, God's—primal self. Yeah, that's the way he said it. Here we go. Let's see. A self desires to please itself, to express itself, and so on. How does God, the primal self, do that?
Yeah. He says here—yeah, that's his words—by the begetting of his Son to be the object of his love. And the Son receiving and returning the love of the Father. And the Spirit of the Father and the Son proceeding forth to express the same love nature in all creation.
Yeah, he's trying to describe that Trinitarian dance of Father, Son, and Spirit. So he's not—I don't think he's necessarily trying to say before time there was a time that God begat his Son. In other words, God was alone in himself. I don't think that's what he's trying to say.
I don't think so either. Because over here, he says, for God is the eternal three.
