God is one.
Mar 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments [is], Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
Eph 4:6 One God and Father of all, who [is] above all, and through all, and in you all.
Psa 95:6 O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.
Hbr 13:20 Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant,
Hbr 13:21 Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is wellpleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom [be] glory for ever and ever. Amen.

Im not entirely sure what you are saying but I think it is along the lines of is God 1 or is God 3? The question is both. Here is an analogy, oft times in conversations, we talk about the Government. We say governemnt as though it is 1 thing, but it consists of many people and organizations, yet they are all still 1 entity. It is similar with God, God is an entity, but it consists of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit.

The Father is God
The Son is God
The Holy Spirit is God
God is One
I resolve it this way: God has the power and can exist in three distinctive ways, Father, Son and Spirit. How does He accomplish this. Not sure, I will ask Him one day.

I prefer to believe that we have given the name "God" to the creative force responsible for the existence of the universe.
This creative force manifests itself in a gazillion different ways, from a flower growing, to love between people, and even in ways that we think of as "evil" such as hatred between cultures.
Because ultimately God is beyond our comprehension, religions seek to explain the unexplainable. In doing this they employ the literary technique of personification - attributing human traits to something that is not actually human.
In the case of Christianity therefore, the vast, unknowable god is referred to as our "father". Jesus, who was actually a human is referred to as his "son". And the power of God as it manifests itself throughout creation is personified into a being called "the Holy Spirit".
Other religions categorize the facets of the creative force differently, but it all amounts to the same thing: mankinds attempt to describe what is undescribable.
I put a link for a blog entry below. It shows how the "Trinity" doctrine in Christianity is an example of men imposing their own structure on a religious message - resulting in a whole new theological construct "The Trinity" that doesn't really exist.

He is three in one, Father Son and Holy Spirit ( sort of like water can be liquid, steam and ice)
He is:
Creator of the Universe
Righteous Judge
Healer
Redeemer
Provider
Deliverer
He is eternal
etc....

you are right this is very confusing and i actually don't believe in it. why GOD needs a son every one gets a son to help him but GOD is perfect he doesn't need a son to help him also the same with the wife why GOD needs a wife while he is perfect . i believe that GOD is one and HE is not divided he is the only creator of this universe. i think this idea is very convincing . you may have another opinion but i really believe very much in this . if you want to ask me any question about this i will be glade to communicate with you . this is my e-mail(minilmicky@hotmail.com ) or (mini.mickey@yahoo.com)

Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
It is not so complicated. The three are one.

when magicians say abracadabera its not really a word
it was originaly an invocation. they were calling upon a
demon lord to do their bidding and make the magic.
the name was spelled backwards to protect his identity.
but the demon CLAIMED to be the father of god.
but you cant trust ANYONE in show business, so
I would not take his word for it.

Unclear. Why no other option? God is one and three.

Of course there are other options. God is one, singular, no spare parts.
