Think of it like this, we are a 3 part being, we have a spirit, a soul (that's our mind and emotions) and a body. God is also a 3 part being (man was made in His image). Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. Our Father is a Spirit. The Son Jesus (also called the Word) took on a physical body when He lived on the Earth and the Holy Spirit (also called Holy Ghost) is given to us a comforter and teacher, He has the same characteristic that our soul does. Only His job is to show us the Character of God. He is One God with 3 parts, this is what we call the Trinity or Triune God.

They all are mentioned only once together (KJV) Math 28:19. God is the Father, His name is JEHOVAH, Ps 83:18. Also, in Deu 6:4,5 We are told that the Lord God is one Lord, and we are to love Him with all our being. In John chap.s 14 and 17, we read that God is above Jesus and that He is in Jesus, and Jesus is in Him. This is as it should be for any and all believers. Isa 63:11 We read that the Holy Spirit is from He Ex 30:10 things, and the seventh day,as well as people, and places can be Holy to Jehovah Ex 31:15,20:8-11; Lev 2:3; 6:16; 11:45,and 19:2 that God is Holy. John 14:26 We read that the Father is the one that sends the Holy Ghost, 1Thes 4:8 that God gives us His Holy Spirit, the Holy Ghost and Holy Spirit are the same thing, and as God only is Holy and the Spirit/Ghost of God is Holy, and the Holy Spirit/Ghost belongs to God, then It Is Not The Third Person Of The God Head. There are only TWO, Jehovah, and Michael(Jesus) the ONLY Begotten of the Father Ps 2:7, Rev 3:14. I hope that this helps to answer your questions. If not email me.

The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost are known as the trinity (a word not found in Scripture, but used to express the doctrine of the unity of God as subsisting in three distinct Persons. This word is derived from the Gr. trias, first used by Theophilus (A.D. 168-183), or from the Lat. trinitas, first used by Tertullian (A.D. 220), to express this doctrine. The propositions involved in the doctrine are these: 1. That God is one, and that there is but one God (Deut. 6:4; 1 Kings 8:60; Isa. 44:6; Mark 12:29, 32; John 10:30). 2. That the Father is a distinct divine Person (hypostasis, subsistentia, persona, suppositum intellectuale), distinct from the Son and the Holy Spirit. 3. ThatJesus Christ was truly God, and yet was a Person distinct from the Father and the Holy Spirit. 4. That the Holy Spirit is also a distinct divine Person.)
In other words, all three are different parts of a whole.

The reference is to the Trinity, the God in three persons.
The Father is God. The Son is Jesus, The Holy Ghost, or other times referenced as the Holy Spirit, is the aspect of God that is everywhere.
Genesis 1:1,2 "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was overing over the waters."
Matthew 3:16,17 "As soon as Jesus was baptized, he went up out of the ater. AT that moment heaven was opened, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and lighting on him. And a voice from heaven said, "This is my son, whom I love; with him I am well pleased."

Father is Creator, Son is Redeemer, and Holy Spirit is Operator but that is only if you think of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit like the soul, the body and the works in a single person. God is like a single person although God is infinite and eternal.
God only has one Divine Human or body. The Son of God refers to the Divine Human form that was won in this world.

so there are 3 gods, but christians say that 3 gods in one person.. so 1+1+1=1 not 3!! you better think deeper. Allah has no son. Allah did not send him self down the earth in a human called Jesus. Jesus is a human like your self but he is a profit that had a message to the world. All the profits before and after Jesus did the same. Your bible has been changed and altered my friend. Allah does not need a son to clear the sins of the humans. Allah can do anything when and what ever he wants. Think deeply christians cause you will be asked by the Only Allah when you die. and he will not forgive you all of saying these kind of things about him. I hope that every christain will get sure that his bible now is the word of allah then beleive in it if it is correct which i really doubt. Thanks

Surely, disbelievers are those who said: "Allah is the third of the three (in a trinity)." But there is no ilah (god) (none who has the right to be worshipped) but One Ilah (God -Allah). And if they cease not from what they say, verily, a painful torment will befall the disbelievers among them. (Quran 5:73)
Say (O Muhammad) "He is Allah, (the) One.
"Allah-us-Samad (The Self-Sufficient Master, Whom all creatures need, He neither eats nor drinks).
"He begets not, nor was He begotten;
"And there is none co-equal or comparable unto Him." (Quran 112:1-4)
The holy spirit known as Ruh ul Qudus in Arabic refers to the Angel Gabriel.

holy spirit-GOD'S ACTIVE FORCE,NOT A PERSON,helper,bears witnesses,John14:16,17,26 / 15:26 ;16:13

I don't believe in the trinity! I don't see how people can when it came from paganism and is unbiblical.
Jesus Christ is not God (he was figuratively God in the Old Testament; the spokesperson for God) = John 1:1.
http://www.lcg.org/cgi-bin/tw/magazine/tw-mag.cgi?category=Magazine3&item=1103832467
Now if Jesus was a trinity (which is unbiblical), that would mean he didn't come fully in the flesh = 1John 4:3.
How can Jesus be God and talk to himself?
The Trinity Doctrine came from paganism.

Most of the majority(Matt.7:13) leads people away from the Truth.
(KJV BIBLE)There are 3 that protestants claim about the trinity; they're JOHN 14 & 15 and 1JOHN 5:7. To start out 1JOHN 5:7 was never in any of the inspired Greek manuscripts; so this knocks out one. As for John 14 & 15; the Greek word for "helper" is paracletos; one who helps inwhich points to the Holy spirit. In Greek, the word "He" is neuter such as "hand" is feminine whether it is a woman's hand or male's hand. As for the word "paracletos" it is masculine and always require a masculine pronoun. This however doesn't prove personhood as you've noticed.
But as you've noticed, these texts don't prove Jesus is God or the Holy Spirit.
I don't believe in the TRINITY! The Bible texts that I'm going to mention contradict the Trinity teaching.
MATT.12:32 "AND WHOSOEVER SPEAKETH A WORD AGAINST THE SON OF MAN, IT SHALL BE FORGIVEN HIM: BUT WHOSOEVER SPEAKETH AGAINST THE HOLY GHOST, IT SHALL NOT BE FORGIVEN HIM, NEITHER IN THIS WORLD, NEITHER IN THE WORLD TO COME."
JOHN 14:28 "IF YE LOVED ME, YE WOULD REJOICE, BECAUSE I SAID , I GO UNTO THE FATHER: FOR MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN I."
1COR.11:3 "BUT I WOULD HAVE YOU KNOW THAT THE HEAD OF EVERY MAN IS CHRIST; & THE HEAD OF THE WOMAN IS THE MAN; AND THE HEAD OF CHRIST IS GOD."
LUKE 18:19 "AND JESUS SAID UNTO HIM, WHY CALLEST THOU ME GOOD? NONE IS GOOD, SAVE ONE, THAT IS, GOD."
****SEVERAL OTHER TEXTS SAY THERE'S ONLY TWO PERSONS:
1COR.1:3; 8:6; 1TIM.1:2; 2:5; GAL.1:3; PHILIPP.1:2; ROM.1:7; 2COR.1:2-3; 1THESS.1:1; 2THESS.1:2; 2TIM.1:2; PHILEMON 1:3; 1PETER 1:3; 2PETER 1:2; 1JOHN 1:3; 2JOHN 1:3.
Now touching on the HOLY SPIRIT; the Holy Spirit is a power(Luke 1:35= "And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the "Son of God.") where God and Jesus make their presence known in the hearts and minds of believers(1John 3:24 = "And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us."). The believers of god and Jesus will have this love poured on them (Rom.5:5 = "And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given to us.") It will teach them understanding and wisdom of God's Word (John 14:16,17,20,23,26 = "And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever; Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you. At that day ye shall know that I am in the Father, and ye in me, and I in you. Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.") Jesus had the Holy Spirit in him when he made the lame walk and the deaf to hear and etc.(Luke 5:15-17) God works in our minds to give us stength to overcome (Genesis 6:3 = "And the Lord said, my Spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.") Other texts are: John 7:38-39; Rom.8:11,13-14,16 and Psalm 104:30.
Also why I don't believe in the TRINITY is because it says in the KJV that the false church will cast all the truth to the ground (Daniel 8:12). I happen to know this false church because all the world has followed it (Rev.12:9; 13:3,12) except for one church (Acts 20:28).
