Well, when everything that is written is considered at one time, it looks to those, like me, that the belief in the Trinity Doctrine, which was agreed upon by a large council of bishops from the early church, is actually implied in the writings of scripture.
I know you have been taught by your organization that the Trinity Doctrine is from pagan sources and is a false teaching. However, from the time I was a small boy, I was taught that the Trinity Doctrine was the Churches best explanation for how the Father, the Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost, and Jesus the Son of God can each be considered God and yet there still be only one true God. I have come to accept and believe it to be true.
The Christian church has always said it is a mystery of God, that is not fully understood or easy to explain. However, it is a central doctine of the Christian Church that is not likely to change, even though certain groups have departed from the main denominations over this issue.
So I believe it comes down to a matter of belief and faith. We are given free will to make that decision, so regardless of what the actual truth is, we can also choose to believe a lie. It is my belief that I have chosen the truth and you have chose a lie, but that is my opinion and is not written in stone by God.
