Article II. The True God
We believe that
- there is only one, living and true God, an infinite, intelligent Spirit, the maker and supreme ruler of heaven and earth (Ex. 20:2-3; Genesis 17:1; 1 Cor. 8:6; Eph. 4:6; John 2:24; Psalm 147:5; Psalm 83:18; Psalm 90:2; Jeremiah 10:10);
- He is inexpressibly glorious in holiness, and worthy of all possible honor, confidence and love (Ex. 15:11; Revelation 4:11; I Timothy 1:17; Romans 11:33; Mark 12:30); and
- in the unity of the Godhead there are three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, equal in ever divine perfection, and executing distinct but harmonious offices in the great work of redemption (Matthew 28:19; John 15:26; 1 Cor. 12:4-6; 1 John 5:7; John 10:30; John 17:5; Acts 5:3-4; 1 Cor. 2:10-11; Philippians 2:5-6; Eph 2:18; 2 Cor. 13:14).
