IN THE GODHEAD THERE ARE THREE PERSONS: GOD THE FATHER, GOD THE SON, AND GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT:

GOD CREATED THE UNIVERSE THROUGH HIS SON JESUS CHRIST:

Genesis 1:31 God created all things in six literal days.
THE HOLY SPIRIT HAS EXISTED SINCE ETERNITY, AND IS GOD'S CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION WITH MANKIND:
Genesis 1:1,2 He helped with the creation of this world.
2 Peter 1:21 He inspired the prophets in their writing of the Bible:
Acts 1:8 Acts 2:1-4 He gives power to God's
people:

Friend...I understand that there are Three Persons in the Godhead and it is my desire to bring my life into harmony with their unified purpose and design in creation and redemption. How about you?

"The Godhead was stirred with pity for the race, and the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit gave Themselves to the working out of the plan of redemption. In order to fully carry out this plan, it was decided that Christ, the only-begotten Son of God, should give Himself as an offering for sin. What line can measure the depth of this love? God would make it impossible for man to say that He
could have done more." Counsels on Health, P. 222.
"But while God's Word speaks of the humanity of Christ when upon this earth, it also speaks decidedly regarding his pre-existence. The Word existed as a divine being, even as the eternal Son of God, in union and oneness with His Father. From everlasting He was the Mediator of the Covenant, the one in whom all nations of the earth, both Jews and Gentiles, if they accepted Him, were blessed. 'The Word was with God, and the Word was God.' Before men or angels were created, the Word was with God, and was God." --Questions on Doctrine, p. 645.
"The world was made by Him, 'and without Him was not anything made that was made.' If Christ made all things, He existed before all things. The words spoken in regard to this are so decisive that no one need be left in doubt. Christ was God essentially, and in the highest sense. He was with God from
eternity, God over all, blessed forevermore." --Ibid., 642.
