Page 8 of 8 5. Jesus said God is 3 Persons. Matthew 28:19 - "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit." Notice that name is singular, meaning ONE. But this ONE name includes THREE Persons. And John 15:26 - "When the Helper comes, whom I will send to you from the Father, that is the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, He will bear witness of Me." Jesus will send the Holy Spirit, who is the Helper, "from the Father." The Holy Spirit that Jesus sends "proceeds from the Father." The Holy Spirit is "the Spirit of Truth," and He will tell the truth "bear witness" about Jesus. One GOD in THREE Persons.
