Mistakenly, other religions find it commonplace to try to separate the Holy Trinity. It is difficult for them to grasp that they have the same purpose and they are all God.

Paul views the Abrahamic narrative in this light as if the narrative were written with that statement being true at the time that Abraham walked the earth. The God of Abraham is the God who would raise Jesus from the dead. Implied in that statement is that Jesus had to die.

Scripture exhibits a three-person God, unified in one being—but each person of the Trinity receives more attention than the others during certain time periods.
