Which three persons constitute the Christian Trinity?

• A. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit
• B. The Father, the Son, and angels
• C. The Father, the Spirit, and saints
• D. The Son, Mary, and the Holy Spirit

Answer: (A)

The concept tested is the Trinity: one God who exists as three distinct persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. They are not three separate gods, but one divine essence shared fully by all three. Each person is fully God, coequal and coeternal, yet they are distinct in personal relation. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit together form the single divine reality worshiped in orthodox Christianity. Angels are created beings, and Mary and the saints are human; neither group constitutes part of the divine Trinity.
