The Trinity is the historic Christian teaching that there is one God who eternally exists as three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Not three gods, and not one person in three modes, but one God in three persons, equal in glory and coeternal. Here are careful, honest pages that explain what the whole church confesses, where it is grounded in Scripture, and how it all centers on Christ, in whom the fullness of God dwells.
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:Matthew 28:19 (KJV)
Confessed by the whole church: the Trinity is not the belief of one denomination but the historic faith held in common across Catholic, Orthodox, and Protestant Christianity, summed in the Nicene Creed of the fourth century. At the same time the church has always been humble that this truth stretches human language to its limit. God is greater than our words for Him. We confess what He has revealed of Himself, we do not claim to comprehend Him, and we hold the mystery with reverence rather than pretending to explain it away.
Come and meet the God who is love
At the heart of all things is not cold power but a communion of self-giving love: the Father, the Son, and the Spirit. And that love has room for you. Read the Word, pray, and walk with the family of God on The Living Bread. Free, with no ads, for all people.
