Growing in Grace / Lesson 09

The Unity and Distinction Within the Trinity

Each Person of the Trinity — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — is fully God, co-equal and co-eternal, yet distinct in role and relationship. Scripture repeatedly shows all three Persons active together: at Jesus' baptism, in the Great Commission, and in Paul's benedictions. The three do not act independently — they work in perfect harmony.
