Christians define the Trinity as One God in three distinct Persons: Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
The doctrine of the Trinity is one of the most difficult ideas in Christianity. So, what does Trinity actually mean?- There is exactly one God
- The Father is God
- The Son is God
- The Holy Spirit is God
- The Father is not the Son
- The Son is not the Holy Spirit
- The Father is not the Holy Spirit
The table below lists a few Bible verses where the three distinct Persons appear together (underlined). Christians would cite this 'togetherness' as evidence for Trinity.
