  • The Nature of God
    • Christians base their beliefs about God on...
      • The Bible
      • Personal Experience
      • Official teaching of their Church
      • Views of Christian leaders
    • Monotheistic religion
      • Oneness of God
      • God is transcendent (above and beyond anything else on Earth
        • Difficult to fully understand God
    • Seen as a supreme being that has supernatural powers that defy physical laws
      • Therefore considered divine, holy and sacred
    • Accept that nature of God is mystery - no gender but possesses masculine characteristics
    • The Trinity
      • One God has appeared to the world in three ways: father, son and holy spirit
        • God the father created heaven and earth
        • God the son: Jesus the saviour of the world
        • God the Holy Spirit: guides, helps and inspires humans
      • Some Christian denominations do not believe in the Trinity
        • E.g Jehovah's Witnesses believe Jesus and Holy Spirit are inferior to God
