“For there are three that bear witness in heaven: the Father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit; and these three are one.” 1 John 5:7 NKJV

It’s said that St. Patrick used the shamrock, which has leaves of three,
as an illustration to the Irish people of God’s holy Trinity.

Just as a shamrock is comprised of three separate leaves, but is one yet–
the almighty God of the Bible is the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit.

Shamrocks have been associated with “luck,” but God’s promises are sure.
While shamrocks cannot last, God’s loving kindness will forever endure.

Jesus is the Second Person in the Trinity, as stated in 1 John 5:7 (Jesus is the Word) and as sung in the worship song, “Alpha and Omega”…

Be blessed by a search on you tube for that song: Gaither vocal band Alpha and Omega

“And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we beheld His glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth.” John 1:14

Words to the song, Alpha and Omega
from Revelation 21

I heard a great voice out of Heaven saying
“Behold the tabernacle of God is with men
He shall dwell within them
They shall be His people
And Almighty God will be with them”

“He shall wipe away all tears from their eyes
There shall be no more death
Neither sorrow nor crying and no more pain
The former things have all passed away”

He that sat upon the throne said
“Behold, I make all things new”
He said unto me, “Write these words
For they are faithful and true”

And it is done
It is done
It is done
It is done

He is the Alpha and Omega
The Beginning and the End
The Son of God, the King of Kings
Lord of Lords, He’s everything
Messiah, Jehovah, the Prince of Peace is He
The Son of man, Seed of Abraham
Second Person in the Trinity

…(and repeated)

He is the Alpha and Omega
The Beginning and the End
The Son of God, the King of Kings
Lord of Lords, He’s everything
Messiah, Jehovah, the Prince of Peace is He
The Son of man, Seed of Abraham
Second Person in the Trinity…
