Hello
God is God, Jesus the Christ (christi being the Greek word for the annointed one) was the physical embodiment of God so that Man could understand. If the Holy spirit exists then it is simply the energy that God emits through his being. They are the same thing.
There is a great story told in Catholic Schools about St. John Boscoe (as i remember). St. John was a brilliant theologian and scholar and was attending a conclave in Italy where the idea of 3 persons in one was being discussed. St. John became troubled by his inability to work it out and went for a walk on the beach. Far up ahead he saw a young boy taking water from the ocean in a pail and putting into a small hole on the beach. St. John became curious and went up to the boy and asked what he was doing. The boy replied he was putting the ocean into the hole. St John replied you can't do that. the boys face became deadly serious and he said Neither can you. St. John at first ignored the comment but after walking a while he turned around to answer the boy but no one was there.
I love that story.
Thanks
