The Trinity is 1 God made up of 3 persons. There is nothing wrong with using the term "Trinity" even though the word is not found in the Bible. It is shorter to say the word "Trinity" than to say "3 coexistent, co-eternal persons making up 1 God." If this presents a problem to you, consider this: the word grandfather is not used in the Bible either. Yet, we know there were grandfathers in the Bible. Abraham was the grandfather of Jacob. So don't get hung up on the term "Trinity" itself. What should be of real importance is that the concept that is REPRESENTED by the word "Trinity" does exist in Scripture. With the introduction out of the way, Bible verses will be given in discussion of the Trinity.\n\n1) There is one God: Deuteronomy 6:4; 1 Corinthians 8:4; Galatians 3:20; 1 Timothy 2:5.\n\n2) The Trinity consists of three Persons: Genesis 1:1; 1:26; 3:22; 11:7; Isaiah 6:8; 48:16; 61:1; Matthew 3:16-17; Matt 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14. In the passages in the Old Testament, a knowledge of Hebrew is helpful. In Genesis 1:1, the plural noun "Elohim" is used. In Genesis 1:26; 3:22; 11:7 and Isaiah 6:8, the plural pronoun for "us" is used. That "Elohim" and "us" refer to more than two is WITHOUT question. In English, you only have two forms, singular and plural. In Hebrew, you have three forms: singular, dual, and plural. Dual is for two ONLY. In Hebrew, the dual form is used for things that come in pairs like eyes, ears, and hands. The word "Elohim" and the pronoun "us" are plural forms - definitely more than two - and must be referring to three or more (Father, Son, Holy Spirit).\n\nIn Isaiah 48:16 and 61:1, the Son is speaking while making reference to the Father and the Holy Spirit. Compare Isaiah 61:1 to Luke 4:14-19 to see that it is the Son speaking.  Matthew 3:16-17 describes the event of Jesus' baptism. Seen in this is God the Holy Spirit descending on God the Son while God the Father proclaims His pleasure in the Son.  Matthew 28:19 and 2 Corinthians 13:14 are examples of 3 distinct persons in the Trinity.\n\n3) The members of the Trinity are distinguished one from another in various passages: In the Old Testament, "LORD" is distinguished from "Lord" (Genesis 19:24; Hosea 1:4). The "LORD" has a "Son" (Psalm 2:7, 12; Proverbs 30:2-4). Spirit is distinguished from the "LORD" (Numbers 27:18) and from "God" (Psalm 51:10-12). God the Son is distinguished from God the Father (Psalm 45:6-7; Hebrews 1:8-9). In the New Testament, John 14:16-17 is where Jesus speaks to the Father about sending a Helper, the Holy Spirit. This shows that Jesus did not consider Himself to be the Father or the Holy Spirit. Consider also all of the other times in the Gospels where Jesus speaks to the Father. Was He speaking to Himself? No. He spoke to another person in the Trinity - the Father.\n\n4) Each member of the Trinity is God: The Father is God: John 6:27; Romans 1:7; 1 Peter 1:2. The Son is God: John 1:1, 14; Romans 9:5; Colossians 2:9; Hebrews 1:8; 1 John 5:20. The Holy Spirit is God: Acts 5:3-4; 1 Corinthians 3:16 (The One who indwells is the Holy Spirit - Romans 8:9; John 14:16-17; Acts 2:1-4).\n\n5) The subordination within the Trinity: Scripture shows that the Holy Spirit is subordinate to the Father and the Son, and the Son is subordinate to the Father. This is an internal relationship, and does not deny the deity of any person of the Trinity. This is simply an area which our finite minds cannot understand concerning the infinite God. Concerning the Son see: Luke 22:42; John 5:36; John 20:21; 1 John 4:14. Concerning the Holy Spirit see: John 14:16; 14:26; 15:26; 16:7 and especially John 16:13-14.\n\n6) The tasks of the individual members of the Trinity: The Father is the ultimate source or cause of: 1) the universe (1 Corinthians 8:6; Revelation 4:11); 2) divine r

I agree with you completely. I am a christian, but I do not believe in the trinity theory. and there are ALLOT of references like this one that points toward the fact that they are not the same. A few of them are: after Jesus got baptized, God said to him, "this is my beloved son, in whom I am well pleased." would he talk to himself? also when the people asked Jesus to teach them how to pray, Jesus taught them to pray to God, not to himself. If he was God why wouldn't he have the people pray to him? yet another, Jesus on the cross said "My God, why have you forsaken me?" would God not only talk to himself, but also forsake himself? A final one... the bible says that the only unforgivable sin is blaspheming the holy spirit (Mark 3:29). If they were all the same, then blaspheming any of them would be unforgivable. They are very separate beings, and not the same.

I dont believe there are any versions outside of the original texts that are more accurate than the next. There are flaws in the 1611 KJV as well as the NIV and every other version... I dont like the NWT though because it deliberately changes text to fit the Jehovah's Witness doctrines. (if you dont believe the KJV has flaws, contact me and I'll be happy to share them with you)

"Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost". Acts 2:38\n \nNotice it says Peter told them to be baptized "in the name of Jesus Christ."  This is right after holy spirit was given on the Day of Pentecost, ten days after Jesus ascended into heaven. \n\n\n"And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days." Acts 10:48\n \n\nNotice that Peter commanded the household of Cornelius "to be baptized in the name of the Lord."  Apparently, no one's reminded him what Jesus said, since Acts 2. \n\n\n"When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus." Acts 19:5\n \nThese were the believers in Ephesus.  Notice it says, "they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus." \n\n\n"For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ." Galatians 3:27\n\nNotice this is talking to those of us who "have been baptized into Christ". \n\nAccording to the evidence I've check and gathered, it's probable that Jesus and the original Matthew 28:18-20" really said, \n\nAll authority has been given to me in heaven and on earth.  Go, therefore, disciple all the nations in my name, teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I commanded you.  And lo, I am with you all the days until the completion of the age. \n\nIt appears that Jesus wasn't talking about baptizing at all, but rather, making disciples of all the nations in his name.\n\nThe oldest manuscripts in existence today that contain this section of Matthew say, "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit".  But, they're from the fourth century, a time when trinity was becoming an established doctrine of the Christian church.  There are only two such fourth century manuscripts, and none older.  However, They still have earlier writings that quote Matthew 28:19.\n\nJesus did not tell the disciples to baptize in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit in Matthew 28:19.  In fact, he wasn't talking about baptism at all.  Rather, he commanded them to go, disciple all the nations in his name, teaching them to observe all of his commandments.  And then he promised them that he would be with them until the end of the age.

Colossians 2:11-12. This verse tells us that baptism is the rite of initiation into the Christian family of God, just like circumcision was the rite of initiation into Gods family for the Hebrew male (Genesis 17:11). The circumcision of the flesh left a visible sign of the covenant for all to see, baptism is a circumcision of the heart which only God can see. Since the Hebrew male was circumcised on the 8th day of its life (Genesis 17:12), can we do less for our children?\n\nBorn with a fallen human nature and tainted by original sin, children also have need of the new birth in Baptism to be freed from the power of darkness and brought into the realm of the freedom of the children of God, to which all men are called. The sheer gratuitousness of the grace of salvation is particularly manifest in infant Baptism. The Church and the parents would deny a child the priceless grace of becoming a child of God were they not to confer Baptism shortly after birth. \n\nChristian parents will recognize that this practice also accords with their role as nurturers of the life that God has entrusted to them.\n\nThe practice of infant Baptism is an immemorial tradition of the Church. There is explicit testimony to this practice from the second century on, and it is quite possible that, from the beginning of the apostolic preaching, when whole "households" received baptism, infants may also have been baptized.\n\nThe Lord himself affirms that Baptism is necessary for salvation. Baptism is the sacrament of faith. But faith needs the community of believers. It is only within the faith of the Church that each of the faithful can believe. The faith required for Baptism is not a perfect and mature faith, but a beginning that is called to develop.\n\nThrough Baptism the Christian is sacramentally assimilated to Jesus, who in his own baptism anticipates his death and resurrection. The Christian must enter into this mystery of humble self-abasement and repentance, go down into the water with Jesus in order to rise with him, be reborn of water and the Spirit so as to become the Father's beloved son in the Son and walk in newness of life.\n\n1 Timothy 3:15 tells us that it is the Church, not the Bible, which gives us all the truth and provides the basis for determining truth or falsity (none of the Church teachings are in conflict with the Holy Scripture.) Matthew 18:17-19 AGAIN tells us that the Church is the final authority. \n\nSt. Paul reminds us to live in accordance with all the teachings which have been given to us. We are not to be distracted by those who would try to limit the teachings if the Church. (2 Thess 2:15; 3:6)\n\nWhen asked "Where in the Bible does it say that you are to ...?" perhaps we ought to counter "Where in the Bible does it say that we are not to...?"

God was talking to Jesus. In the beginning was the word and the word was with God. Read the 1st Chapter of The Gospel of John.

I have the KJ Bible. It is the true inspired word of God. There are no books left out. God put everything in there that He wanted us to know. I take God for His word. Many other Bible have been changed, and rewritten to please man.  Jesus is the living word, and the Bible is the written word, and it is true from the beginning, to the end.

John 1:1 the Word was WITH God .....WITH....WITH....how can you be WITH God and Be God....in Greek the definate article is missing which is supposed to tell the reader that the word is with God and he is God-like or Divine in nature....that is all!!! \n\nYou wana show me verse 14....ok read verse 14....then read 18....NO MAN HATH SEEN GOD at any time.....( but 14 said the word resided among us didn't it?????)\n\nTrinity (or 3-in-one Deities) is a pagan belief transferred to Christendom’s Doctrine. Trinity has a bizarre origin, (see this on-line book http://www.biblebelievers.com/babylon/)... \n\nScriptures have been tampered with, (KJ 1Jo 5:7), and God’s personal name has been removed from the bible text to help sell this false belief. Trinity is not taught in the Bible anywhere. Jesus Christ did not teach it to his followers. It is a difficult, if not impossible concept for anyone to rectify and harmonize with true, important Bible concepts such as the Ransom and the messiah-ship. \n\nJesus Clearly and repeatedly showed himself to be separate and subordinate to his heavenly father who is named in the Bible several thousands of times, (Jehovah). His apostles consistently manifested a belief in a supreme being who was not the same individual as Jesus Christ.\n\nJesus Christ is the name of the individual who was transferred by supernatural power to the womb of a virgin to become a perfect HUMAN. He was the very first thing created by the creator. Before becoming human, his very being was exactly the same as his creator’s. His very personality, his goals, his desires, his love, is exactly the same as his father. Everything else created was created by the father but through and with the son. He became God’s spokesman or mouthpiece and that is why he carries the name and title “Word”. He commands all of the armies of angels. He is the authentic “seed” who will champion all of the Creator’s purposes and return the universe to the situation originally purposed by Jehovah God the creator, as the King of God’s Kingdom, (A government with a heavenly seat). He is the Messiah, and the Ransomer who redeemed the lives of all humanity by paying the ransom price lost by the original human pair. He gave his perfect human life to pay that price. He did not pay that ransom price with a Creator’s life or a God’s life. His father, (a separate all powerful individual who was still alive) Resurrected him from death, (Hell) to a life once again as a spirit creature like he was before and sat him on a throne at his right hand to wait until his Kingdom rule was to begin. \n\nHoly Spirit is not an individual personality; it is God’s active force or power.\n\nChristendom will be held responsible for the perpetuation of the filthy trinity doctrine\n\nEDIT: If you have not noticed the answers from devout muslim people show that thay are offended by the false teaching that Jesus is God.

I walk in the faith that the Bible is a load of codswallup. Especially concerning the parlor tricks of the New Testiment. 1Peter 2-24 included.\n\n-SD-

I believe in the trinity b/c the Bible tells the 3 r one!\n\nIf you read in 1 John 5:6-8\n6 This is He who came by water abd blood-Jesus Christ; not only by water, but by water and blood.  And it is the Spirit who bears witness, because the Spirit is truth. \n7 For there are three that bear witness in heaven; Father,the word, and the Holy Spirit;and these three are one.

The KJV is just that---a human's version of the original manuscripts. The translators of the KJV left out God's name in thousands of places. \nHow do you think Jehovah (PSALMS 83:18) feels about that? The NWT respectively put it where it belongs and we show honor to his name and sanctify it just as Jesus said to do in the model prayer he gave in the book of Matthew. There are many new translations that have been put into our modern English language. Do you have a problem with those too? \nWhich translation do you think Jehovah God approves of---one that treats his holy name as a substitute for a mere title, like God or LORD--or the NWT that shows love and respect for his most holy name.?\nJOEL 2:32--"And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of Jehovah shall be delivered."\nWe also use whatever translation a person prefers when we conduct free home Bible studies with them. We can teach the truth about Jehovah and his Kingdom using any version or translation.

Jesus said in John 3:3 "Unless you are born again you cannot enter the Kingdom of God."\n\nIf you want to know Him, pray this prayer sincerely:\n\n"Heavenly Father, I know I am a sinner. Your word says all have sinned and fallen short of Your glory. Forgive me for my sins Father. I accept Jesus' sacrifice on the cross as payment for my sin. Today, I turn from my sin. Jesus, come into my life today. I want to follow you. In Your name Jesus I pray, amen."\n\nRead the book of John in the New Testament of the Holy Bible. You might not think so right now but it is important to find a Bible-believing church and go there every Sunday.\n\nGod bless!

I'm a convert - I am born to a buddhist family but I chose Jesus as my personal saviour six years ago. I don't fall into a denomination - so I guess I am non-denominational - but I am Born Again just as it is said in John 3:3. I think it is right because, this is how Jesus says is the way in the Bible and what He says goes.
