[His-Story.ForHisGlory]

John 8:23-24 KJV
And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world. [24] I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.

[Lesavant_]

God is unique but he made us in His Image, we are a tripartite person. We are a spirit, possess a soul, and reside on earth in a physical body

[GavinLockard]

The trinity is a Catholic tradition with no basis in the Bible.

[datchet]

What about 1 John 5v7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

To believe in the trinity is to believe the following about Christ: Jesus is the immortal God, but died. Jesus is the invisible God, but was seen. Jesus is the omnipotent God, but was strengthened by an angel. Jesus is the omniscient God, but did not know the day of his return. Jesus is as great as his Father, but his Father is greater than he. Jesus is equal with the Father, and yet he is the Father. Jesus is the son, but the same age as the Father.. Jesus is the son who has a Father and the God who has no Father. Jesus is the begotten son and the un-begotten God. Jesus is very God and very man, came out from himself, prayed to himself, gave power to himself, thanked himself, bore witness of himself, went back to himself, sits at the right hand of himself, is his own Father and his own son, left Heaven and yet was there all the time.

The trinity is a deception of Satan. Satan wants to be worshipped as the third person of the Godhead (Isaiah 14:12-15) and it is also a foundational doctrine of the Catholic church and of ancient Babylon. The Bible does not teach three Gods or a three in one God. We have one God, the Father, and one Lord and Saviour, Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God. The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God which He has given to His Son Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit is real, but it is not a personage to be worshipped. No where in the Bible do we read that the Holy Spirit is to be worshipped. Jesus taught us how to pray in Matthew 6:9-13 and Luke 11:2-4, in other words directly to the Father. Jesus tells us Himself that He is the Holy Spirit (John 14:16-18). Why did Jesus have to go before the Holy Spirit would come? Jesus lost His omnipresence when He became flesh, in other words He could not be in all places at once. Once Jesus ascended to the Father, then His Holy Spirit could be poured out; this is what Jesus is talking about in John 14:16-18. Read your King James Bibles closely, the trinity is unbiblical.
