[This citation section
provides a quick overview of the verses showing our God is "Triune."
We have elaborated on a few key Scripture, however, our view is that you need to
search out these things just like the noble of Berea (Acts 7:11). You will need a Bible to
do this study, if you do not have one, you may go to Blueletterbible.org.
