There is only one true God. He is eternally existent, having no beginning nor end. He reveals Himself as God the Father, God the Son. and God the Holy Spirit.

A. God the Father

God the Father is the Eternal Father who rules all creation with perfect love, kindness, and justice. He is sovereign in the affairs of men including but not limited to world events, government affairs and leaders, and the personal lives of each of His creation. He is all wise and reveals Himself in His providential care, absolute wisdom, and utter truth. He is majestic in holiness, and is faithful to His Word to perform all that is written therein.  He especially displays His Fatherly care toward His prized creation, man.  

Genesis 1:1; Exodus 15:11; 20:1-11; Deuteronomy 32:4-6; 33:27a; Psalm 19; 90:1-2; 139; 145; Isaiah 6:1-3; 40; 43:10-13; 64:8; Jeremiah 10:10, 12-16; 17:10; Matthew 6:9; 23:9; John 3:16; 4:24; Acts 1:7; 17:24-31; Romans 8:15; I Corinthians 8:6a; I Timothy 1:17; James 1:17; I John 1:5; 4:8.   

B. God the Son

God, the Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, is the eternal begotten Son of God. Being God, He, for a time, emptied Himself of the manifestations of His glory and took upon Himself flesh and dwelt on the earth. He was born of a virgin, lived a sinless life, and gave  Himself as a substitutionary sacrifice by shedding His blood and dying on the cross. He did this to make an eternal, absolute, and total payment for the past, present, and future sins of mankind. He then was resurrected from the dead and ascended into heaven and is now exalted at the right hand of God where He is the one mediator, between God and man.  Mankind enters into relationship with God through receiving the Son as Savior and Lord. God the Son will one day return in power and glory to judge the world and to consummate His redemptive mission.

C. God the Holy Spirit

God, the Holy Spirit, is the Spirit of God. He was active in the creation. He inspired the writing of the Holy Scriptures. He convicts all mankind of sin, righteousness, and judgment. He indwells those who believe to illuminate the Word, to cultivate godly character, comfort believers, bestow spiritual gifts by which men serve God, and seal the believer unto the day of final redemption. This indwelling occurs the moment a person receives Jesus Christ as his Savior. Concurrent to the indwelling, the Holy Spirit baptizes the new believer into the body of Christ and energizes him in all areas of life.
