In Part 2 - We learned about God.

We saw that He is a Triune God.
Today I want to explain more about this.
He is one supreme being but 3 persons:
God the Father
God the Son
God the Holy Spirit
To try and understand this, you can look at the candle.
It's one candle but with 3 parts. The wax, the wick and the flame. One without the other are not a candle, but together they are. Same with God, the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit together are God.

Who is God's son?
God's son like him existed from before the earth. But there came a time that God decided that He wants His Son to come to earth to live between the people and become our Saviour.
Normally a mommy and daddy is needed to make a baby. But Jesus already had a Father,
so God, the Father choose the virgin Mary to give birth to His Son Jesus. To be a virgin means that she was a young woman who did not had a husband. She was engaged to Joseph but they were not married yet. The Angel Gabriel came to give Mary the message.

God did a miracle and use His Spirit to let Jesus start to grow in Mary's tummy. God choose Joseph to be Jesus' earthly father, for the time Jesus grew up.
So after nine month's, Mary gave birth to Jesus. So that is how God's son Jesus came to earth.
God had something very special planned for Jesus and us people.
Next time we will look at this story in the Bible, at how exactly it all happened.
Thank you for reading.
