I have a suspicion that the doctrine of the Trinity is a little above what this thread has to offer. Perhaps a link would suffice:

Perhaps trinity is actually a bad word to describe his entire being.

Doesn't the bible call it 'he' about 10,000 times?

You may have been created by God but that doesn't mean that you are a child of God.
John 1:12 Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.
