TNDL: God, the Father, is a title given to God in various religions, most prominently, in Christianity. In mainstream trinitarian Christianity, God, the Father, is regarded as the first person of the Trinity, followed by the second person, God the Son, Jesus Christ, and the third person, God the Holy Spirit.[1] Since the second century, Christian creeds included affirmation of belief in "God the Father (Almighty)", primarily in his capacity as "Father and creator of the universe". So what are their function?
"THESE 3 MEN WORKS IN UNITY, ALL AGREEING WITH ONE DIVINE MIND AND PURPOSE TO AGREEING WITH THE SUPREME CREATOR OF ALL HIS CREATIONS, FOR THE THREE WORLD, OR REALMS." (TNDL)
However, in Christianity the concept of God as the father of Jesus Christ goes metaphysically further than the concept of God as the creator and father of all people,[3] as indicated in the Apostles' Creed where the expression of belief in the "Father almighty, creator of heaven and earth" is immediately, but separately followed by in "Jesus Christ, his only begotten Son, our Lord", thus expressing both senses of fatherhood.[4]
