Exploring the Nature of God: Spirit, Oneness, and the Trinity

This exploration delves into the fundamental aspects of understanding God. We begin by acknowledging God as a spirit, referencing John 4:24, which depicts Him as immaterial and beyond human form. We affirm the monotheistic belief in one God, as supported by verses from Isaiah 44:6, Jeremiah 10:10, and Deuteronomy 6:4. Lastly, we address the concept of the Trinity, explaining how this singular God exists in three distinct persons, offering a deeper insight into the complexity and unity of His nature.
