Our God, who is Love, doesn’t want anyone to die in their sin. Yet since the beginning of time, man has chosen to follow his own way instead of the way of life in God.

There is only one God, but the Trinity refers to the three persons in the Godhead—the Father, the Son (Jesus) and the Holy Spirit. Each One is wholly God—not just a part of God. And together, they are God in oneness. (See Matthew 28:19.)
