Our Christian faith is the belief in the Triune God. In Latin, we say, “one ousia, three hupostaseis” – one “ousia” (essence or substance), yet three “hupostaseis” (persons).

The Father is totally God, the Son is totally God, and the Holy Spirit is totally God. All three are exactly identical in being, but they are separate and distinct persons. This is the glorious mystery of our God Almighty.
