We acknowledge the Creator-God as our heavenly Father, infinitely perfect and intimately acquainted with all our ways.
As the first person of the Trinity, the Father is the source and ruler of all things and is fatherly in His relationship with creation in general and believers in particular. And although there is one eternal, all-powerful, all-knowing, holy, just, loving, true, and unchangeable God, in the unity of the one God there are three divine persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—equal in power but distinct in roles. See
Psalm 103:19;
Matthew 28:19; and
1 Peter 1:2.
