The Bible clearly teaches that there is a plurality of “Persons” that make up the one Godhead (Genesis 1:1 , 26; 11:7; Matthew 28:19). In many places the Bible calls the Father, God; the Son, God; and the Holy Spirit, God. (Genesis 1:1 , 26; 11:7; Matthew 3:16-17 ; Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14). This is not saying there are three gods because Scripture is clear: there is only one God. We have to give equal weight to the texts of Scripture that declare God to be one and also to the texts that reveal the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit to be God as well. Since we believe Scripture cannot contradict itself, to resolve (or explain this mystery clearly spoken of in Scripture) we use the word, “Trinity.” Trinity is simply a word the church uses to speak of how God reveals Himself to us in Scripture. Perhaps we could say, there is “one what” and “three who’s”.
