Leader: How are these articles divided?
People: Into three parts: God the Father and our creation; God the Son and our deliverance; and God the Holy Spirit and our sanctification.
 
Leader: Since there is only one divine being, why do you speak of three: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit?
People: Because that is how God has revealed Himself in His Word: These three distinct persons are one, true, eternal God.
