God the Father and God the Son aren't 2 separate persons. They are 1 spirit.

Matt 1:20 does not say the Holy Ghost was the "Father" it says the child is "from the Holy Ghost" (NIV) or "of the Holy Ghost" (KJV) neither of wich DIRECTLY says is his father just that the Holy Ghost had a part in the incarnation of Jesus (as a human body not to mean that Jesus was Created because he was already preexistant with God from the begining) in Marys womb. As the Holy Ghost is also considered by many to be the "Go between" between God and the World (it is the Spirit that travels in Prayers and it is the Spirit that was Hovering over the Earth in Genesis Awaiting the Word (Christ) from God. I hope I haven't made this harder for you. I am not the best at explaining the concept of the Trinity.

God the Father, God the Son & God the Holy Spirit are 3 persons in one. They make up the Holy Trinity.

I think you misinterpret Matthew 1:20.. because it does not say that the Holy Ghost is the Father.

God the Father was Christ's Father.

They are two persons in one God, so they are the same being. The story of the Annunciation says that Mary "conceived of the Holy Spirit", I think that's in Matthew. In effect, you could say that Jesus is his OWN father, since he is part of the Trinity as well. Jesus refers to his "Father" in Heaven throughout the gospels, so I suppose you could say that's God the Father. He's everyone's father, really.

This is probably one of the biggest debates- the nature of God. In the bible we read in several verses about God the Father, God the son and god the holy ghost. I believe they are one in purpose but separate individuals. When they say in the bible that they are one, it means that they are one in purpose, that they work together to help us, his children.

you aren't to any extent further expertise the Bible. In Gen. it tells us that Jesus were given to be the Christ because he replaced into the purely angel that had under no circumstances sinned! I easily have lengthy gone by my New testomony and counted over 550 places that state that Jesus isn't God! Like the position Jesus reported: Why do you call me "solid"? i'm no longer solid. purely God is solid.". "how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and ability, and how he went round doing solid and therapeutic all who were less than the skill of the devil, because God replaced into WITH him." "...you've under no circumstances heard his voice nor seen his style,...". "For the very artwork that the daddy has given me to end, and which i'm doing, testifies that the daddy has despatched me." that is sweet to obey the Bible, no longer lazy human beings own needs and needs.

Christ has no father.Why is it so difficult to believe that Jesus was born without a father?
Adam and Eve were created without a father and mother....so it is very simple for Allah swt to create Jesus without a father.
