while in fact the first commandment says:
"You shall not take other gods before Me"
Jesus said: "Listen o Israel the lord our God is only one God"
Jesus said: "why calling me good? and there is no good but God"
Jesus said: "my God, my God! why haven't u forsaken me"
while in the Quran, almost every chapter in the Quran repeats "there is no other god but Allah"... One God, no one else Except Me... One God. Not three, not Jesus, Not human figure, not idols or images.

Jesus did mention the "Father, Son and Holy Spirit" many times in his teaching. His last words to his followers was to "... go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit" (Matthew 28:18-20 (NIV translation)).
So, to answer your question, Jesus talked about the idea of the trintiy many times. The fact that he never actually used the Latin word "Trinity" itself (Jesus spoke Aramaic) seems irrelevant.

sure for sure He did. Jesus stated that He and His Father are One (John 10:30. He also stated praying to the daddy in His call (John 14:15) and sending decrease back His Holy Spirit to be our Comforter even as He had to go away (John 16:7). Jesus doesn't use the precise be conscious "Trinity" in spite of the indisputable fact that the most is 3 human beings making up one God, the daddy, the be conscious (Jesus Christ John a million:a million-3) and the Holy Spirit and those 3 are one (a million John 5:7). there are a form of issues contained in the Bible which have not were given the genuinely call on them. as an celebration you received't locate the words Ten Commandments contained in the Bible yet they're all there.(Exodus 20). you received't locate the words "Beatitudes" contained in the Bible yet they're all there (Matthew 5: a million-12). in addition you received't locate the be conscious "Trinity" contained in the Bible yet they're all there also (a million John 5:7) and so on. because for one ingredient, we were all commanded by technique of Jesus to baptize contained in the call of the Trinity - Father, Son and Holy Spirit (Matthew 28:19). it truly is very sparkling isn't it?

I'm at work right now, so I don't have my Bible with me to give verses. However, Jesus said "I am equal to my Father". This is why the Pharisees plotted to have him assassinated. He prayed to his Father saying, "Let not my will be done, but yours", when he was headed to the cross. He told the apostles that he would send another(Holy Spirit) after Him to give power to them as they continue to preach the good news that the messiah had come. And many other times he mentioned the fact that there were 3 persons in the Godhead. Also while on the cross he said "My, God, My God, why have you forsaken me?" If you study the original languages the Bible was written in you will understand that the structure of this statement meant he was referring to the Father and the Holy Spirit, who had to turn away from him as the sins of the past, present and future were imputed to him as he paid for them as the sacrificial lamb that is represented by the shank bone in the Passover sader. Might I reccommend you contact R.B. Thieme Jr. Bible Ministries and order the book "The Trinity" or "The Blood of Christ", both of which have explanations of the trinity and how it's supported in the Bible. His books are free and can be ordered on his website. Just google the name. This guy has studied the original languages of the Bible for decades and knows what it says. L.S Chaeffer, Bob McLauphlin, www.livingwordbc.org, are also great places/people to hear teaching from the original languages. God didn't choose King James English to reveal Himself for a reason. The original languages are so precise there is no error in them. Hebrew, Koine Greek, Aramaic are virtually perfect languages, unlike English. Best wishes in your search for answers.

Jesus made it clear that he came from the father; he's God's son. he also said that the after he left the holy spirit will come. So isn't this the Holy Spirit? Now if you are Muslim or Judaic, you won't believe in the Trinity...what can I say..to each his own. some so-called religious folks are very good at picking through scriptures...you did quote that Jesus said 'there is no good but God; now go quote where Jesus promised to send the Holy Spirit.

First of all, the Quran is from Islam, which is not Catholic. You have it wrong, my friend. Muslims do not believe in the Holy Trinity, Catholics do. Islam is a completely different religion, and they do not acknowledge Jesus as the Messiah, they acknowledge him as a great prophet. (I hope I got that right, and sorry if I didn't, for all you Muslims out there). Now that we have that clear, I'll answer your question. I'm Catholic, and I was the Trinity was explained to me a certain way. Take me, for example. I am a daugher, a friend, and a cousin, but I am still me. Despite all the different roles that I have, I am still one person. That is how the Trinity works. While God is still God, he is also the Son (Jesus), the Father, and the Holy Spirit, while being the same entity.

Jesus son of Mary was a human being and he never said he was son of God, he will not dare, and he was very devoted servant of God. Those evil enemies of God and Jesus wanted to corrupt Christianity from inside so they invented this concept of trinity. Ask Paul (Saul of Tarsus) and emperor Qustantine about it?
To Candice H above: You don't have to refer to long verses of the Bible because it was changed many times according to the desires of Paul, Qustantine, and others. If you can prove that the Bible was not changed then you have a point. Now compare how the holy Quran was served to keep it unchanged, and how the Bible was neglected in this regard then think again.

It is mentioned, clearly, and repeated throughout.
Look at the fourth word in the Bible. Strong's [0430] "Elohiym".
The word "Elohim" is uni-plural (such as the word "cluster"), which implies plurality in unity. Thus the Trinity of the Godhead is implied in the very first verse of the Bible (and throughout the O.T.) by the very title "God".
More? Look at Genesis 1:26-27
And God said, Let us make man in our image. In verse 27, God refers to himself with a plural pronoun, again.
More? Look at Genesis 11:6-8
And the Lord, Jehovah said, (vs.7) let us go down, and there confound their language. Then vs. 8 says: "So the LORD (Jehovah) scattered them abroad..." Interestingly, in this passage , it is specified that it is Jehovah doing the speaking, and He refers to Himself with plural pronoun.
More? Look at Isaiah 6:8
"Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Here God speaks of Himself using both the singular pronoun and the plural pronoun. Why? One God, three persons. Again, the doctrine of the Trinity.
More? New Testament - 1John 5:7
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
You cannot get any plainer than that.
More?
God the Father (John 6:27; Rom. 1:7; etc.)
God the Son, i.e., Jesus Christ (Matt. 1:23; John 1:1; Heb. 1:8; etc.)
God the Holy Spirit (II Cor. 3:17; Eph. 2:22; Acts 5:3-4- notice in this latter passage that in vs. 3, Peter tells Anions that he had "lied to the Holy Ghost", then in vs. 4, he explicitly states, "thou hast not lied unto men, but unto God.)
More? Matthew 3:16-17
Here we see the Son being baptized, the Holy Spirit descending on Him, and Father speaking from Heaven.
There's even more but you get the idea....

He was clear about it, that's why he was crucified. God took human form and walked among us as Jesus Christ. Across the board, Christian churches and the Catholic church do not argue this point. The only one that argues the Trinity are the Jehovah Witnesses (JW's), they don't believe in the Trinity. Yet, their version of the Bible has been edited. JW's believe tht Jesus is merely a favored creation. The devil is also a creation. Do you see how the evil one has made himself equal with God in this religion? Nothing but a counterfeit. Sorry about the tangent, but JW's go around calling themselves Christians when clearly they're not.
Back to your question, read the following:
John 4 (Jesus and the Samaritan woman).
John 5:19
John 8:
John 8:58
John 11:38 Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, and sent into the world, Thou blasphemest; because I said, I am the Son of God?
37If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not.
38But if I do, though ye believe not me, believe the works: that ye may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him.
39Therefore they sought again to take him: but he escaped out of their hand,
John 14:6Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
7If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.
John 10:30 I and my Father are one.
John 14:8-14
8Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
9Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?
10Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
12Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
13And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
These are just a few I have noted in my Bible. Pray to Jesus and ask Him to help you find the truth.

That's because the Nicean creed mistakenly declared the trinity as true doctrine. The trinity, as they would call it, is actually three people. It is actually the Godhead.
1. God the Father, who is God Almighty, Father of Heaven and Earth, Father of Christ, Spirit Father of the children of men.
2. Jesus Christ, the Only Begotten Son of the Father, Bridegroom of the Church.
3. Holy Spirit or Holy Ghost.
These are the three members of the Godhead. They are separate beings, although they are united in their work, which is to bring to pass the immortality and eternal life of man.
God the Father has a body of flesh and bone, just as tangible as a man. That's why we came to earth--to gain a body to be more like our Heavenly Father.
Jesus Christ also has a body. He gained a body of flesh and blood when He was born of God the Father and Mary. When He was resurrected, He retained His resurrected body of flesh and bone.
The Holy Ghost as of yet does not have a body so that He may dwell in the hearts of men and aid in guiding them to return to heaven.
