They are 3 Separate Beings
but make up One Whole
the living and true God,who subsists in Three Persons: Father,Son,and Holy Spirit,,,,,,(Matt:3:13-17........28:19)
Although in essence He is one - undivided and indivisible
(John:10:30..1Tim:2:5)

John 1:1 says "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." This refers to Jesus. Jesus said "Before Abraham was, I AM." Jesus received worship, and forgave sins. It should be clear from reading the Bible that Jesus was God in the flesh.
It's probably also true that a lot of Christians neglect the Holy Spirit, who is just as much God as the Father or the Son.

A lot of Christians don't understand the trinity.. so they only tell you what they believe or what makes sense to them and usually claim another idea is a "lie"
My personal belief of the Trinity is this.... I am created in God's image and also a trinity.. I am 3 in 1, body mind and spirit. God is the same though of course He can do an aweful lot more with Himself than I can with myself... Im not omnipresent, or omnipotent or any other omni for that matter. But all 3 parts of me are still equally me, but are different from the other parts.

only the Catholics believe in the Holy Trinity
the Holy Trinity consists of:
1. God the Father
2. God the Son thats Jesus
3. and God the Holy Spirit
but they are only one
like what Jesus said " I and my Father are One"
they are one God

Jesus is the son of God,
Think of "God" as a family name in a sense, (It's hard to explain
There is God the Father, (God himself, the head, the creator, "The" god)
There is God the son, (Jesus)
and God the spirit (The holy spirit that is sent to us to guide us and dwell with us)
You can look at it like a Family tree in a sense, with God the Father at the top , and then Jesus and the holy spirit next, they are all in the same group, they are all "God" in a sense, but at the same time individual beings...
hopefully that helps

D) All of the above.
Jesus was the son of God. People report the holy trinity as.
The Father=God
The Son =Jesus
The Holy Sprit=Given to every Christian by God.
Hope you understand now.
Don't try to make it so complicated, Jesus made it simple, so simple people in that day and time could understand, they did not have 1/2 the knowledge that people do these days, what's amazing is, people still don't understand how simple it is.

Because it was Gods choice for us to worship His Son. And maybe its a little tough to understand but the Word says that these 3 are one ( the Father, Son and the Holy Spirit). The Father never intended for us to worship anyone other than His Son.

Jesus, God, Holy Spirit=Trinity.
Jesus is God's only Son but is also God.
Matthew 1:23
John 1:1
These are just 2 Scripture verses supporting our belief.
You can get a Concordance and look up "Jesus", "God". and "Holy Spirit" to find more proof.

Ah yes a concept that is hard to wrap our finite minds around.
Consider this. The CREATOR of ALL THINGS(GOD to some) created the souls of all that was and will be before the creation of the physical universe. Then all of our souls are but facets of the Creator which in the ETERNAL NOW . then The CREATOR can live in all times at once and be Holy Ghost, Father and Son at the same time.

Look in your bible. Do you see anywhere in there, where Jesus says I am God.? But Jesus does say how ever many times that he is the son of God. Can you find the word Trinity in the bible?
JESUS IS THE SON OF GOD
They are in union as one, just like a husband and wife are in union as one, but they are two very separate people, just like a husband and wife are two separate people.
