“As the Father is fountain and the Son is river, we are said to drink the Spirit.”
Robert Letham, The Holy Trinity: In Scripture, History, Theology, and Worship, Revised and Expanded
“In turn, when the Spirit enlightens us, Christ in him enlightens us. As the Father is the fountain and the Son is called a river, we are said to drink the Spirit. When we drink the Spirit, we drink of Christ. Since Christ is true Son, when we receive the Spirit we are made sons. When the Spirit is given to us, God is in us. When God is in us, the Son is in us. When we are quickened by the Spirit, Christ lives in us.75 The perichoretic relations of the three persons underlie their inseparable involvement in the one work of God for our salvation. The Spirit is never apart from the Word, the Son—a point that Athanasius repeats time and time again.76”
