I think that if people started from the Bible, they would not come to the conclusion that God is a Trinity.
i can almost agree here:
follow me for a moment:
Let US make man [Elohim].
that right gets confusing because in Exodus, the same ELOHIM is now SINGULAR claiming to be Elohim, I AM TO BE......then 3 Chapters later this Same Singular Elohim now claims He is LORD - YHWH - MOST HIGH GOD - Yahweh.
^
which leads to the Knowledge that for God, the True God, Hebrews called God Singular Elohim, but for false gods they use the plural version of elohim.
and if we Follow the Title LORD, that leads us to Sodom and the LORD rained from the LORD in Heaven [ Hebrew says this is SAME LORD so this is Proof of Omnipresence [[much like John 14 Father in Heaven also lives inside Jesus on Earth]]]
then we get into the Prophets and Isaiah says, God sent me and Spirit of God led me...WHOAHHHH!!!
does this mean God did send Isaiah, but did it by the Spirit, or is this making a distinction of 2?
and when you look at the Hebrew, it is God sent Isaiah, but God did by His Spirit, which I am also led by the Spirit of God, not another form within God, when I am directed to do His Will.
and then we get into the Psalms and discover David getting a message from God:
Of David a psalm. The word of the Lord to my master; "Wait for My right hand, until I make your enemies a footstool at your feet."
^
Who is this Right Hand?
Messiah
and then we get to the New Testament.
we at this point already know Jesus is ELOHIM, I AM TO BE, LORD, MOST HIGH GOD, YHWH, Yahweh, Messiah.
but now we meet Father-WORD-Holy Spirit
but it's not too long we learn God emptied Himself, became flesh, dwelt among us.
we learn that Jesus cast out demons by the Holy Spirit and the Father is LIVING inside Jesus from His Heavenly Throne [Omnipresence] doing the Talking and Miracles.
and then we get a bigger clue with Matthew 28:19 when Jesus says in the NAME [singular] Father-Son-Holy Spirit.......but........ watch the Disciples Baptize in the NAME............... of Jesus.
and then we learn inside Jesus Dwells the Whole Deity.
and if that don't set it off, we have Paul saying this:
13 waiting for the appearing of the glory
of our great God and Saviour Jesus Christ
so now Jesus [is] our GREAT GOD and SAVIOR.
if someone was NEVER born into a family that went to church and preached Trinity, they most definitely could easily think One God with many Titles.
after all, Jesus is STILL ELOHIM, I AM TO BE, LORD, MOST HIGH GOD, YHWH, Yahweh, Messiah + Paul's addition of OUR GREAT GOD and Savior.
yeah, i believe it!
