GOD THE FATHER

GOD THE FATHER-The fountainhead of the Holy Trinity. The Scriptures reveal the one God is Three Persons — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — eternally sharing the one divine nature. From the Father the Son is begotten before all ages and all time ^{(Psalm 2:7; II Corinthians 11:31)}. It is from the Father that the Holy Spirit eternally proceeds ^{(John 15:26)}. God the Father created all things through the Son, in the Holy Spirit ^{(Genesis 1 and 2; John 1:3; Job 33:4)}, and we are called to worship Him ^{(John 4:23)}. The Father loves us and sent His Son to give us everlasting life ^{(John 3:16)}.
