The Bible says God created everything. The Bible also says of Jesus, "Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made" (John 1:3)
The Bible shows very clearly that there is only one God, and yet that there are three personal distinctions in His complex nature, traditionally referred to as "three Persons in the Godhead"—God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit. Each is distinct from the others but never acts independently. They are one in nature and purpose. This mystery is called the doctrine of the Trinity, though that term is not used in the Bible. The teaching, however, is present in seed form in the Old Testament and is revealed explicitly in the New Testament. Note passages such as Matthew 28:19; John 10:30, 14:26; 2 Corinthians 13:14.
Our finite minds cannot understand or explain this mystery of God, which is nevertheless a fact. We must accept the truths found in the Word of God by faith even though we ourselves cannot comprehend them fully; read Hebrews 11:1,3,6 and 1 Corinthians 2:5-10;14; 13:12. It is really not surprising that the infinite God should be complex in His nature beyond the ability of finite humans to comprehend! This doctrine is absolutely essential to New Testament Christianity. Theologians have pointed out that if it were not true, the Bible would be unreliable, Christ would not be divine, and His death on the cross would not atone for our sins, being merely the death of a martyr.

in Christianity God is '3 spirits in one person'. these are the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. God (therefore the 3spirits in unision) created 'Adam and Eve', i feel more comfortable to say the universe we live in. Jesus, who is the son and therefore one of the 3spirits, took the shape of a human being so as to be able to save humanity and show the way of the truth

Three persons in one God, i.e., the Trinity; that's the God of Christianity. God the Father, the Creator; God the Son, Jesus Christ; God the Holy Spirit, the paraclete and in-dwelling of the love of the Father and the Son.

Jesus is not God - he is the Son of God
Two separate people
JOHN 14:28 - one is greater than the other
JOHN 1:18 - no man has seen God AT ANY TIME
(many saw Jesus)
Also, if Jesus is God and he died for us - who resurrected him?
If you say God resurrected him - then he couldn't have died
He couldn't have resurrected himself
The Father of Jesus created Adam & Eve
His name is Jehovah or Yahweh (PSALM 83:18)
He also created Jesus (COLOSSIANS 1:15)
Jesus is called 'the firstborn' showing that he had a beginning whereas Jehovah/Yahweh hasn't - he has always been

Adam and Eve is a symbolic creation myth, not to be taken literally. Jesus' identification with God (as the trinity concept - father, son, holy spirit) is a misinterpretation of his teachings (all of his teachings were changed).

THE DEITY. THERE IS GOD THE FATHER, JESUS CHRIST HIS SON AND THE HOLY GHOST -- HOLY SPIRIT. EACH ARE SEPARATE AND YET ARE A PART OF EACH OTHER. your dad is separate from you and your mom. your mom is a separate part from your dad and you. you are a separate part from both your dad and mom and yet even though all of you are separate from each other you are still at the same time a part of each other. thus it was explained to me.
