We believe in one God, Almighty, Creator of all things, infinitely perfect, holy, eternally existing, gracious, merciful, compassionate, and abounding in steadfast love.  We believe that the Godhead eternally exists in three distinct persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.  These three are one God, yet the Father is not the Son, the Son is not the Holy Spirit, and the Holy Spirit is not the Father. Each is truly Deity, having precisely the same nature, attributes, and perfections.  Each is worthy of precisely the same homage, confidence, and obedience.
