Yes! The Bible states in 1 John 5:7 "For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one" We note the account of creation where the Lord is having a conversation with all three aspects of the Trinity where He stated "Let US make man in OUR image." I know some people have difficulty grasping the Trinity however another way to explain it could be the account given in Genesis Ch.18 where the Lord appeared to Abraham as he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day. He lifter up his eyes and lo, THREE MEN stood by him, and he ran to meet them and bowed himself down to them and said "MY LORD"
(note here he addresses the Lord as singular). Even though three men appeared, Abraham still recognized them as the Lord (singular) Perhaps an even easier way to explain this would be, in my case, I am a father, son, uncle, husband, brother, nephew, grand son, brother-in-law,son-in-law, etc,. and yet I am still only one person!
Thanks for the question and I hope this answer is helpful. God Bless!

Abraham was visited by three men, and all of them could arguably have been God from the story and the descriptions
One God revealed in 3 persons is consistent with the Old Testament God bein One ( same work for a composite unity as in marriage :the two shall be one flesh" (
In the New testament it is more clear and yet consistent with the old testament. the Father, Son and Spirit are at times all prayed to and exists in lists in the New Testament described as differnt persons yet listed together and in every possible order

He (Jesus Christ) is the God in the flesh
John 1:1-5
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning.
the Word was God
the Word was God
the Word was God
the Word was God
the Word was God
the Word was God
the Word was God
Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.
In him was life, and that life was the light of men.
The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.
Heb 1:1-4
In the past God spoke to our forefathers through the prophets at many times and in various ways,
but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the universe.
The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven.
So he became as much superior to the angels as the name he has inherited is superior to theirs.
Mat.28:19
Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in[a] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
Name not names.
1John 5:7-8
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one.
John 10:30
I and my Father are one.
Psalm 110:1
The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.
* that is Jesus Christ who the Father tell him .
and Jesus clear that in John 14:1
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
you can say that Jesus Christ is the son of God and the God
because he equal the Father and the Holy Spirit .
Some times we can said he is the Son of man
or Son of David. But
God is three person in one essence

Think of it like an apple, the human body, the peel, holds in the soul or person, that would be the apple meat, within that, there is the spirit, that ignites the soul or the whole person, the core.

If you believe God created all, then God is billions of beings and things: otherwise, It just IS as Pure Awareness.
