Thanks for the question. Will we meet three persons or one God? Christians, and I am using the term broadly here, do not believe the answer is either/or, but both/and. From the very earliest creeds Christians have believed in one God who has revealed himself to us in three persons.

1st Corinthians tells us that now we “know in part”, but when “that which is perfect comes” we shall know in full. Right now we are limited in our human knowledge to our understanding of God, in heaven we shall now fully. Will God reveal himself in other ways? We don’t really know, and we only have glimpses in Revelation to go on.

For now though, as Paul says, we speak what we do know. That is one God, revealed as three persons.

I believe the section on the Church fathers may help us understand a bit more.

I’ve stumbled across this site after looking at iMonk. One question, (that I’ve asked many people, who claim to know the answer), ‘when you die and go to heaven/judgment, will you meet three persons or one God?

Now, from my experience (yes I know, experience is risky, as the apostles and Paul will testify) – I’m very definite about the answer: so from your knowledge – what do you think the answer – could be, and why?
