The Triune God

One God. Three persons. Our triune God.


While the workings of the Trinity challenge our understanding, Bible-believing Christians cannot let themselves downplay the Trinity or ignore it. We find the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit each present throughout the pages of Scripture—and each equally deserving of our love and reverence.


This book, while not attempting to define or explain the Trinity, dedicates equal space to examining the qualities and roles of each member as we find them in the Bible, to help us grow in our knowledge and understanding. To do so, the Alliance of Confessing Evangelicals has gathered essays from leading pastors and preachers on:


God the Father

Bryan Chapell The Greatness of God • The Love of God

Richard D. Phillips The Holiness of God • The Wrath of God

Kevin DeYoung The Truth of God


God the Son

D. A. Carson       The Glory of the Son • Our Risen Savior

Joel R. Beeke       The Incarnate Word • The Cross of Christ

Iain M. Duguid      The Life and Ministry of Jesus


God the Holy Spirit

D. A. Carson Streams of Living Water

Michael S. Horton The Age of the Spirit

Philip Graham Ryken Born of the Spirit

Hywel Jones Life in the Spirit

R.C. Sproul Holy Spirit, Counselor


These addresses will make us more familiar with each person of the Trinity and will show us how to rightly respond to each one. The more we know how to relate to the Trinity, the more we can enrich our love for our triune God.
