The Trinity

Many Christians believe that God is one but is known in three separate Persons:

  • God the Father
  • God the Son
  • God the Holy Spirit

The term Jesus as God Incarnate is the Christian belief that Jesus is God in human form. This is the part of the Trinity known as ‘God the Son’.

So God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life
— John 3:16
