The Trinity is a very touchy subject with so many.
I personally am not convinced of the Triune Godhead concept. I have not seen any direct evidence of it in the bible. And every person I've asked--from the layman Christian to the bona fide teacher and Minister--has not given me a satisfactory answer so that I would be convinced.
All this bit about "It's a mystery that can't be fully understood," tells me that it should be reserved as an opinion.
This is the one and only teaching I have a disagreement with when it comes to my mentor RC Sproul.
Christ was the Son of God from the very beginning of our existence, the bible tells us that straight up. That tells me that the Son came to Earth as a separate entity.
I would LOVE for someone to convince me otherwise using Scripture but as many people who have tried and failed, I have become more and more entrenched in my conclusions.
When I fill out the survey online that tells you what religion you likely follow, Mormonism is near or at the top because of my lack of adherence to the Trinity concept.
Thing is, that's one of the few things I have in common with the Mormons so although we do have some key common ground, I won't be converting to Mormonism any time soon.
