The ideas presented in the Holy Bible can be presented in various words, because ...[text shortened]... k at John 1:1-14 to see that the Word, which is also God, became flesh in Christ Jesus, the Son.
I've studied the trinity doctrine fairly extensively and you present nothing new here which I've effectively contended several times in this forum over the years.
Your use of Matthew 28 18-19 is a classic example of the root of the error in the trinity doctrine;
Here is jesus giving a direct command, one which is straightforward and trinity supporting, yes?
Well show me in Acts where any of the disciples baptised in that formula? Show me one example and I will accept the trinity. In every single case the disciples baptised in the name (singular) of Jesus Christ.
Now read the scripture again;
Baptise in the name of (singular name, not plural titles) the father, and of (same name) the son, and of (same name) of Holy Ghost. And what did the disciples do?
There is ONE name given among men by which we may be saved. That name is the (given to men) name of the father and of the son and of the Holy Ghost. Jesus Christ.
Hear oh Israel The Lord your god is ONE. Not 3 or 3 in 1. Not triune, not trinity. ONE. Every time the godhead is mentioned in the bible it is always linked to a singular person.
Manifestations are not persons.
