The teaching of the Trinity have Confused Christian who believe in it.

PRO has continued to throw up various verses at me in an attempt to refute my points. I would like the voters to see that the information that Pro has thrown at me has been not only taken out of context, but also being shown in the wrong light. Spirits are created beings (Demons, Angels, etc) God himself isn't a Spirit, but rather a Force. I am loathe to apply such a definition to God in that He is the master Creator of the Universe. Pro hasn't refuted my point in John. Any reader can logically see that Jesus is speaking of three individuals. God, Himself, and The Holy Spirit. My argument still stands, unrefuted. No matter how many times Pro will try to warp a verse to fit his own ends the verse itself still stands. Jesus is referencing three individuals. However, I too will throw verse after verse defending the Holy Spirit. Let's begin. (1. ) Matthew 28:19 New International Version (NIV) "19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit" -Once again, we have three individuals. The Bible is saying to baptize in the name of the Father, Son, and Spirit. Not just The Father and The Son, but of another individual. (2. ) John 14:26 New International Version (NIV) "26 But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you. " -So, here we have the Bible calling the Holy Spirit "The Advocate" who was sent by the father to teach things and to remind people of things that have been taught to them. Last time I checked, mindless forces can't teach people things. Only intelligent forces can. Also, it shows that the Holy Spirit was sent by God to teach people, He is also referred to as the Messenger throughout the New Testament, messengers carrying messages. I rest my case in this regard. (3. ) John 15:26 King James Version (KJV) "26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, which proceedeth from the Father, he shall testify of me:" -Here is another time when this so called unintelligent force is referenced again with another title, "The Comforter" that is added to other titles like "The Messenger, The Advocate, etc" this gives further credence to my claim that the Holy Spirit is an intelligent aspect of God. His third side. Pro, unintelligent forces aren't given titles and have the ability to teach. The Spirit is an intelligent force. (4. ) Romans 8:26-27 New International Version (NIV) "26 In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us through wordless groans. 27 And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God"s people in accordance with the will of God. " Once again, we don't have the capitalization in the Bible as "the spirit" but the Spirit. This clearly shows that this is a intelligent member of the Trinity, it's giving the name of something. It says the Spirit intercedes for God's people in accordance to the will of God, here we have the Bible showing that the Spirit is an intelligent individual that can act. The key word is "intercedes" intercedes is to act on a person's behalf. In order to act at all one must be an intelligent individual able to control one's actions. If the Holy Spirit was just a power like you believe then it wouldn't be possible for it to intercede. It has to be intelligent in order for it to act. I rest my case. (5. ) 1 Peter 1 New International Version (NIV) "1 Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, To God"s elect, exiles scattered throughout the provinces of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia and Bithynia, 2 who have been chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through the sanctifying work of the Spirit, to be obedient to Jesus Christ and sprinkled with his blood: Grace and peace be yours in abundance. " -The foreknowledge of God, the sanctifying work of the Spirit, and to be obedient to Jesus Christ. Who are they referring to then Pro when they talk of the Spirit? If the Spirit wasn't an intelligent agent then this shouldn't be in the bible. If the Holy Spirit wasn't an intelligent agent then it wouldn't be able to do any "work" at all, now would it? Once again, the Scripture is speaking of three individuals, yet one God. Each one has a specific duty within the Trinity. I will also expand on previous arguments below, as Pro still hasn't refuted them. (1. ) There is a plurality to God. The Hebrew word for God is el in its singular form. The most common form used for God is elohim, which is plural in form. How can there be plural form used for only one God? Some suggest that the answer is found in the three persons of the Trinity. Others contend that the plural construct denotes a fullness of deity as opposed to plurality. I submit that both interpretations are correct. I"m getting ahead of myself now though. Rather than look at all the verses that use the plural elohim, let"s look at other verses that point to a plurality within the one God. "Let us make man in our image" " Genesis 1:26, emphasis added. "God said, "Behold, the man has become like one of us""" " Genesis 3:22, emphasis added. Some would say that God could be speaking to the angels in these verses, but that's simply not correct. God was speaking to co-creator(s) in these verses ("Let us make man""). Who could be a co-creator? Not the angels. (2. ) In Acts 5:3-4, we see the Holy Spirit being equated with God: "Then Peter said, "Ananias, how is it that Satan has so filled your heart that you have lied to the Holy Spirit and have kept for yourself some of the money you received for the land? Didn't it belong to you before it was sold? And after it was sold, wasn't the money at your disposal? What made you think of doing such a thing? You have not lied to men but to God. "" [emphasis added] Paul clearly and explicitly equated the Holy Spirit with God: "Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory, are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. " " 2 Corinthians 3:17-18 Additional evidence of the deity of the Holy Spirit comes from the shared attributes of the deity. The Holy Spirit is: Eternal (Heb. 9:14) Omniscient (1 Cor. 2:10-11) Omnipresent (Psa. 139:7) Savior (Rom. 8:1-27) In addition to the attributes above, we find the Holy Spirit was involved in creation (Gen. 1:2; Psa. 104:30), the incarnation (Matt. 1:18,20; Luke 1:35), and the resurrection (Rom. 1:4; 8:11). This is ample evidence to show that the Holy Spirit is God. (3. ) The Father is not the Holy Spirit: Once again, the first bit of evidence is given in Matthew 28:19 as discussed before. John 14:16, and 15:26 also remain as evidence that the Father and Holy Spirit are distinct persons. We also find Paul describing in Romans 8:26-27 that the Holy Spirit intercedes for us with the Father. If the Holy Spirit were the same person as the Father, he would not need to intercede with himself. Now let"s address another Scripture that makes it clear that the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit are three different persons. Luke 3:21-22 covers the baptism of Jesus Christ, "When all the people were being baptized, Jesus was baptized too. And as he was praying, heaven was opened and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: "You are my Son, whom I love; with you I am well pleased. "" Each person is described separately here. First, note that Jesus was praying. If Oneness theology were correct, Jesus would be praying to Himself. Once again, that smacks of neurosis. Instead, Jesus was praying to the Father. As He did, the Holy Spirit descended on Jesus in a physical manifestation like a dove. The voice of the Father was then heard from Heaven, speaking to the Son. This highlights that each person of the Trinity is unique and separate. I rest my case, and have done so with logic and finesse.
