-Removed-The Holy Bible teaches us that there is One God, using the same word when it says Israel is one nation. So if one nation is made up of more than a single person, then one God can be made up of the three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. It is all writen in the Holy Bible. The fact that a certain word, "Trinity" does not appear is irrelevant to what the Holy Bible teaches. The absence of the word "Trinity" or any other word does not negate the fact that the Holy Bilbe teaches that the One True God consists of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. 😏
HalleluYah !!! Praise the Lord! Holy! Holy! Holy!

Creed of Constantinople of 359
The resulting creed read:
We believe in one God the Father Almighty, of whom are all things. And in the only-begotten Son of God, begotten of God before all ages, and before every beginning; through whom all things visible and invisible were made: who is the only-begotten born of the Father, the only of the only, God ...[text shortened]... have arisen of late, which are opposed to this exploitation of the faith, be anathema.[/b]

But we are not speaking of a cake or a nation are we?
Where did God ever say he was made up of more then one being? Certianly not where he said he was (( 1 )) God was it?
-Removed-Hebrew words can have different meanings just like English words. It all depends on how it is used in the text. The word alone does not establish the meaning. The Hebrew word used in echad (Strong's 259) primarily meaning "one" as in a number, however, it can mean, first, united, altogether.

indeed. it says a doctrine was abandoned because it wasn't mentioned anywhere in the scriptures. you should do the same with the trinity doctrine.
HalleluYah !!! Praise the Lord! Holy! Holy! Holy!
P.S. And the doctrine was not abandoned. The doctrine survives to this day. The only thing that is significantly different is the abandonment of a word that makes reference to the essence or substance of God. That is what was objected to because they could not find any reference to it in scripture. These were the Arians and they are just like the JWs today, who make claims against something just because the word is not in scripture.
