I was waiting to hear about the origin of the Trinity. C. Baxter spoke mainly of how in the bible it appears to reveal the trinity. That is not the origin. History is very clear of where this doctrine came from, and it was not from the bible. Ancient trinities were accepted throughout the world! The Catholic religion admits that they used Greek philosophy to develop the trinity. Philosophical terms and notions such as "persons," "substance," "hypostasis," "relation," and so on were used. So, can this doctrine be a development of Greek philosophy and bible, and still be scripturally sound? The answer is no.
@@MsKiddah Let's start with the definition of the Trinity that is found nowhere else than in the Athanasian Creed (forgery). It states that God is three Persons. That is not found anywhere in Scripture. It states that the Trinity in unity is to be worshipped. That is not found in the bible. It states that all three are God separate and by themselves. That is not scripture! It states that from eternity they are coequal and coeternal. That is philosophical jargon. I can go on and on, but hopefully you get the picture.

I don’t get why you think the trinity isn’t scripturally sound. Can you expound on this?

@@approvedofGod so, are you saying that God is one person only?
@@MsKiddah
God is more than a person. He is Almighty God, who is Omnipresent, and Omniscient.
