The Holy Trinity

The comparative table below sets out a classic instructional device: eight divine attributes and activities, each demonstrated in Scripture for all three Persons of the Godhead — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — individually. The argument is cumulative rather than dependent on any single proof text: if Scripture independently calls each Person “God,” ascribes creation to each, asserts the omnipresence and omniscience of each, calls each eternal, attributes will, speech, and love to each, then the only way to remain faithful to all of these texts at once — without either denying plain Scripture or confessing three gods — is the doctrine the Church has always taught: one God in three co-equal, co-eternal, consubstantial Persons.

Attribute	Father	Son	Holy Spirit
Called God	Phil. 1:2	John 1:1, 14	Acts 5:3–4
Creator	Isaiah 64:8	John 1:3	Job 33:4; 26:13
Everywhere (Omnipresent)	1 Kings 8:27	Matthew 28:20	Psalm 139:7–10
All-Knowing (Omniscient)	1 John 3:20	John 16:30; 21:17	1 Corinthians 2:10–11
Eternal	Psalm 90:2	Micah 5:1–2	Romans 8:11; Hebrews 9:14
Has a Will	Luke 22:42	Luke 22:42	1 Corinthians 12:11
Speaks	Matthew 3:17	John 5:25	Acts 8:29; 11:12; 13:2
Loves	John 3:16	Ephesians 5:25	Romans 15:30

A note on method: this chart is a teaching device, not itself a proof of the Trinity from a single verse; its force lies in the convergence of independent texts across very different books, authors, and centuries, all attributing the same set of incommunicable divine attributes to three distinct Persons who are nonetheless together confessed as the one God of Israel (Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Corinthians 8:6).
