What is the Trinity?

Short answer

The Trinity is the Christian belief that the one God exists eternally as three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — distinct, but one in essence.

Deeper answer

The Trinity is not a contradiction — it is a mystery. It is the church's attempt to faithfully describe the God revealed in the Bible.

From the Bible

  • Matthew 28:19
  • 2 Corinthians 13:14
