In Christian theology, the Trinity’s same substance is traditionally regarded as divine nature, which defines three persons are God. However, the consubstantial nature of three persons should include both divine nature and human nature in that the doctrine of the Trinity originated from the trial to understand the unified nature of God and man Jesus, and in Unification Theology, the ontological identity of the Trinity is the True Parents of Heaven, Earth, and Humankind, who achieved the unity of God-man-woman in love. In this paper, I demonstrate the Trinity’s homoousia as “True Parental Nature” through the process of resembling the Divine Image: a united being of Sungsang and Hyungsang, a harmonious being of Yang and Yin, and a being of individuality. The perfected person to resemble the Divine Image, in accordance with God’s purpose of creation, is the True Parents. Human beings gain divine nature through the process of becoming True Parents in a reciprocal relationship with God, conversely, God possesses human nature by taking on the body of man and woman, the body of True Parents. Thus, the same substance of the Trinity, the perfected unity of God-man-woman in love as the True Parents of H.E.H, is True Parental Nature.
