    The Father is our God.
    Though members of the Godhead, neither Jesus nor the Holy Ghost are. They are the Father's representatives, one with him in purpose and doctrine, and acting with full authority from him.
    Jesus is our savior and intercessor with God, but commanded us to pray to the father in his name, not to him.
    The Holy Ghost is our witness from God of all that God tells us through his prophets and through the scriptures.
    He must remain a spirit, without body until his work is done. Otherwise he could not witness directly to our spirits as he does.

    We believe that the Holy Ghost is not a God himself. One day, he will have a body. For now, he guides us to make correct choices and warns us of dangers. I'm not going to debate Acts 5:3-4, but I will suggest that it is possible that they lied to the Holy Ghost as well as God.
