TRINITY

TRINITY - God the Father and His Son and His Holy Spirit: one in essence and undivided. God revealed the mystery of the Trinity at Christ's baptism ^{(Matt. 3:13 17)}, but even before that event, numerous Old Testament references pointed to the Trinity. For example, the frequent use of plural pronouns referring to the one God ^{(Gen. 1:26)}; the three angels who appeared to Abraham ^{(Gen. 18:1-16)}; and the Triple Holy hymn sung by the angels in Isaiah's vision ^{(Is. 6:1 4)} all suggest one God in three Persons, the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit ^{(Matt. 28:19).}
