The Trinity is the central dogma of every Christian religion. Catholics believe the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit make up one God. “The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are co-eternal and co-equal” (page 1 St. Athanasius). “Each are distinct Persons, each Person is fully God, and there is only one God” (page 1 Matt Perrman). Matthew 28:19, “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirt.” When…

Right after this filling of the Holy Spirit, Peter was filled with boldness and preached! His cowardness that lead to denying Jesus changed to boldness which gave him the power to preach. The result of the Holy Spirit filling Peter resulted in 3,000 people becoming Christians; “Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day” Acts 2:41.

their unity in Christ and how it will come through humility. It opens with the Apostle Paul posing questions to the members of the church at Philippi. “If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any bowels and mercies,” (Philippians 2:1).

the Council of Nicea. The Council of Nicea was “the first Ecumenical Council.” This council met on the teaching of Arius, a presbyter of Alexandria. Arius’s belief was that “the Father is greater than the Son, who in turn is greater than the Holy Spirit.” This belief is a “radical monotheism” saying that the Father and the Father alone is God.…

Christianity teaches it is the Holy Trinity (Father, Son and Holy Spirit) while Judaism and Islam teach it is Yahweh and Allah respectively. Paganism however tends to differ.
