trinity hi mark i'm not committed to any particular wording my concern is to find language that reflects the fact that there are more than a handful of exegetes that maintain that the doctrine of the trinity is contained in the scripture of the old and new testament they would admit of course that the term trinity is not in the bible and that the doctrinal formulas of later ages are not stated point blank yet they see the scripture as a whole confessing one god while confessing the father as god the son as god under names such as the angel of the lord and the word of yahweh and the holy spirit as god to me some gets to that without extensive research however i cannot say how many feel that way what we do want to do is to either find language that includes them all or that sets forth the multiple positions on the subject peace in the prince of peace bob wyneken talk
