God the Father - A spiritual being who created the universe out of nothing. He is eternal with no beginning and no end. He is changeless, holy and perfect. He created people in his own image, loves us immensely, and is actively involved in our lives.

God the Son - Jesus. As the second part of the Triune God, Jesus has always existed and was never created. He is fully God. He also became fully human and lived on this earth. He came to earth through the Holy Spirit and was born of the virgin Mary. Jesus lived a sinless life on earth and paid the price for all mankind’s sins by dying on a cross according to God’s plan. His sacrifice was the full payment for our sins. He rose from the dead on the third day both spiritually and physically and through his resurrection conquered death. However, salvation and eternal life are only possible by believing in Jesus. (More on that to come!)

Who is God?

There is ONE God who is Triune (One God in three persons, not three gods) Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

“Christ died for our sins, just as the Scriptures said. He was buried, and he was raised from the dead on the third day, just as the Scriptures said.” I Corinthians 15:3-4
