Christianity is a monotheistic religion meaning the belief of one god, but much like Hinduism, the Christian god manifests into three separate identities. These are the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit/Spirit.

According to the description in The Bible these are three separate entities which act in concert with each other; the holy trinity acting in one mind an one accord. They are more prominently felt depending on the denomination, especially that of Catholicism.

This, however leads to the question of Saints, most often found in Catholicism. Saints are considered to be "exceptionally virtuous" are dubbed so after completing a long list of requirements set by the Pope.

Many believers have a saint they have chosen to follow. This often leads to the practice of idolatry (the worship of idols) which is counter intuitive to the first commandment- banning such practices- but shrines and amulets are common amongst the 'devout'. But these 'celestial beings' are still not a god-power and are viewed only as guides and protectorates under the Christian god.
