There is but one living and true God, everlasting, without body parts, or passions; of infinite power, wisdom and goodness, the maker, and Preserver of all things both visible and invisible. And in unity of this Godhead there be three Persons, of one substance, power and eternity; the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. Join Our Newsletter
