The Trinity

The Holy Trinity is probably the most debated, and yet important building blocks of Christianity. We know that the early church believed in the Holy Trinity. In fact, one of the ancient hymns that we sing in church says, "praise, praise, the father praise the son, praise, praise, the spirit three in one, oh praise him!" In Luke's gospel, doctor Luke tells us that when John was baptizing Jesus, "The holy spirit descended in bodily form like a dove upon Him, a voice came from heaven which said, "You are my beloved Son; In You I am well pleased!" (Luke 3:22) Here we have Jesus standing there, then we have the Holy Spirit descending upon him, and finally God the Father speaking audibly from heaven. Just like we believe in Jesus as our Savior and Lord by faith, we too must believe in the Holy Trinity by faith.
