The Trinity is not Biblical

I would like clarify that I do not intend to be disrespectful in anyway. Due to the nature of this debate, and that many hold the trinity to be sacred doctrine it is likely that some may be offended. That is not my intent. A: When did the Doctrine of the Trinity become common? 2 Corinthians 13:1(KJV) "In the mouth of two to three witnesses shall every word be established. " The following sources agree that the Doctrine of the Trinity was not established until the fourth or fifth century. "The formulation 'one God in three Persons' was not solidly established . .. into Christian life . .. prior to the 4th century. .. . Among the Apostolic Fathers, there has been nothing even remotely approaching such a mentality or perspective. "(1) "Indeed no less a source than the stalwart harper"s Bible Dictionary records that "the formal doctrine of the Trinity as it was defined by the great church councils of the fourth and fifth centuries in not to be found in the New testament. " (2) B: The doctrine of the Trinity does not fit the text of the Bible "Concerning Old Testament scriptures, "theologians today are in agreement that the Hebrew Bible does not contain a doctrine of the Trinity, even though it was customary in past dogmatic tracts . .. . to cite texts like Genesis 1:26 . .. . as proof of plurality in God. " And ". .. in the New Testament the doctrine of the Trinity is not enunciated . .. " but only "deduced from a collocation of passages . .. ." The Trinity, therefore, did not " . .. reflect accurately early Christian teaching regarding the nature of God, it was, on the contrary, a divination from this teaching. "(1) Let"s take a look at some verses of the Bible. With each example we will try to apply the doctrine of the trinity. 1: Mathew 3: Context: "John the Baptist preaches in Jud"a"Jesus is baptized, and the Father acclaims Him as His Beloved Son. "(3) " 16 And Jesus, when he was baptized, went up straightway out of the water: and, lo, the heavens were opened unto him, and he saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and lighting upon him: 17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. " Application of the Trinity: God saw himself be baptized, while being baptized, and descending like a dove. Then Says I am well pleased with myself? 2: Mark 10:18 (see also Mathew 19: 16-17 and Luke 18-19) ""And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God. "(4) Application of the trinity: If Jesus and the Father are one, as in the same person, how can only one of them/himself be good and not the other? 3:Mathew 24:36 (see also mark 13:32) "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but the Father alone. " Application of the Trinity: If Jesus and God are the same being, how can one have a knowledge of something the other does not? 4: John 17 Context: "Jesus offers the great Intercessory Prayer"He is glorified by gaining eternal life"He prays for His Apostles and all the Saints"He explains how the Father and Son are one. "(4) Verses 1-3 "1 These words spake Jesus, and lifted up his eyes to heaven, and said, Father, the hour is come; glorify thy Son, that thy Son also may glorify thee: 2 As thou hast given him power over all flesh, that he should give eternal life to as many as thou hast given him. 3 And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. " Application of the Trinity: if Jesus and the Father are one, what would be the purpose of praying? Does God have to ask himself to glorify himself? Is he a schizophrenic? Secondly, If God the Father and Jesus are one, why would you have to know both as expressed in verse 3? Would not knowing one be inclusive of the other? Verses 20-22 "20 Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall believe on me through their word; 21 That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. 22 And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they may be one, even as we are one:" Prior to these verses Jesus is praying for his apostles, then in verse 20 he prays for those that will believe on their words. "That they all may be one". even as we are one. " Do any Christians believe that Christ is including believers as part of the trinity? Did Jesus intend for his apostles to become one person? 5: Luke 22 Context: "Jesus institutes the sacrament"He suffers in Gethsemane and is betrayed and arrested"Peter denies knowing Him"Jesus is smitten and mocked. "(5) "41 And he was withdrawn from them about a stone"s cast, and kneeled down, and prayed, 42 Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. " Application of the Trinity: Again talking to himself, asks himself to remove his own burden but not his will but his will. (sounds pretty off doesn"t it. ) 6: Mathew 27:46 " And about the ninth hour Jesus cried with a loud voice, saying, Eli, Eli, lama sabachthani? that is to say, My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me? " Application of the Trinity: Jesus asks himself why he has forsaken himself. In each of these verses of scripture it becomes very clear that the doctrine of the trinity is not taught in the Bible. Rather, it seems the Bible teaches that God the Father and Jesus Christ are two separate and distinct beings. Concluding my argument It is clear that as the doctrine of the trinity was not taught commonly until hundreds of years after Christ, as well as that the doctrine does not mesh with the text of the Bible, The doctrine of the Trinity is not Biblical.
