Members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (commonly called the "Mormon" church) believe that God the Father is our literal Father in Heaven. He is the Father of our spirits, and we were created in His image (Genesis 1:27). God the Father has a body that looks like a human man, although it is exalted, perfected and glorified. God desires us, His children, to be happy in this life and to return to live with Him again. For this reason, He provided His Son, Jesus Christ, as a Savior for us.
Jesus Christ is the literal Son of God, and as such He may be considered our Brother. Under the direction of the Father, Jesus created the earth and all things in it. (Hebrews 1:1-2) He is the Jehovah of the Old Testament, and is our personal Savior and Redeemer. He was born to the Virgin Mary, and during His mortal ministry, taught us the way we should live. (1 Peter 2:21) He suffered in the garden of Gethsemane (Luke 22:39-44) and died on the cross so that we might come to Him, repent of our sins and receive eternal life. (Romans 5:8-9) He was resurrected on the third day to overcome death, so that we may also overcome death and be resurrected. (John 11:25) Jesus Christ is the only source of our salvation. (Acts 4:10-12) Jesus is also the head of the Church. Since the beginning of life on earth, the will of God has been revelealed to prophets who have lead the Church. (Luke 1:70) The same pattern of revelation continues today. Jesus is the Mediator of all men. We pray in the name of Jesus Christ, and he pleads our case with the Father. (1 Timothy 2:5) Jesus Christ will also serve as the final judge when life is over. (John 5:21-22) He currently dwells with His Father, (John 20:17; Acts 7:56) and has a glorified, resurrected body, just like the Father does. (Luke 24:39)
The Holy Ghost or Holy Spirit is the third member of the Godhead. Unlike God the Father and Jesus Christ, he does not have a body, but is a spirit. The Holy Ghost bears witness to our souls of God the Father Jesus Christ, gives us knowledge of the truth, and provides comfort to us. (John 14:26) We may all have this Spirit of God dwell within us to be our constant companion if we live worthy of it.
