36. Who is the only true God?
The true God reveals Himself in Jesus Christ, crucified and raised from the dead for us. Jesus shows us the Father. The Father and Son give the Holy Spirit, who always points us to Jesus Christ, the Father's only Son. Thus, the only true God is the triune God: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit--three distinct persons in one divine being (the Holy Trinity).
Read Genesis 1:1-3; Matthew 3:16-17; and John 1:1-3. Note how the three persons of the Trinity are present and active.
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 Spirit.2 Corinthians 13:14 The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ and the love of God and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all.
Numbers 6:24-26 The LORD bless you and keep you; the LORD make His face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the LORD lift up His countenance upon you and give you peace.
