Perichoresis

“… but at the immanent level it is a story of the perichoretic outpouring of love and birth between the three who are only in relation one to another. All three Persons, figuratively, give birth—the First Person as Unoriginate Origin begets the Son and gives the Spirit, the Second as Son ‘makes’ God the Father and ‘gives birth’ to the Church on the Cross, and the Holy Spirit, the Lord the Giver of Life, animates the Church in the world. The activity of all three can be styled in the procreative imagery of the human feminine and the human masculine.”
