divine trinity

Father, Son, Spirit

The divine trinity is the Christian doctrine that God exists as three persons in one essence: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.

The concept attempts to reconcile monotheism with the distinct roles of God the creator, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit.

The divine trinity is central to Catholic, Orthodox, and most Protestant theology.

Also called the Holy Trinity or simply the Trinity.
