God exists in three images, or persons. God
the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God
the Holy Spirit. This three part personality
is often referred to as the Trinity. It may be difficult to understand
how there can be three in one, but God is different from us. The Bible
has many scriptures that were given to help us understand this better.
Perhaps it is like three images inside a triangle, all making up the
one supreme God.
Some Biblical scholars have referred to this union as the Community
of God. They are three persons yet they are one in community. Each one
has individual characteristics.
- Only Jesus died on the cross.
- Jesus always desires to do the will of the Father.
- The Holy Spirit could not be sent until Jesus had ascended back into
heaven. The Holy Spirit is the agent who enables us to
come to Jesus.
