ONE SUBSTANCE
There are only three types of substance in the universe:
- Created Matter
- Created Spirit
- Uncreated Spirit
Only God is Uncreated Spirit.
God is made of different “stuff” than anything else that exists.
Three Persons
God is Love (1 John 4:8)
- God has existed from all Eternity Past. For countless ages before creation, God was the only thing that existed.
- Because God is Love, all of Love and all that is Love existed then.
- Complete and total Love–in order to exist–must be shared.1
- Because God was the only thing that existed, and sharing was happening, God must consist of more than one uncreated spirit.
- (As it turns out, there happen to be three.)
