I can't find the word 'trinity' in the bible. How come?

Question

Then why do Xtians believe something not in in their human only-written book?

Answer 1

it does not say in the bible tht the holy spirit and jesus are god!!!!

the trinity is the beleif of them all being as 1, meanin god, jesus and the holy spirit bein as 1.

many religions have there own translations of the bible and are split at this some beleive it 2 be true others not.

in answer to your question there is no mention of the trinity because it was brought up after the bible was written.

Answer 2

The word Trinity is not written in the Bible, but is implied. In all the gospels, Jesus is called the Son of God. Jesus spoke often of the Holy Spirit, or Ghost, the same Spirit which descended upon Him at His baptism. Thus, there is the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The word Trinity was officially adopted about 300 years later, but was well established by the apostles and early bishops.

In short, the doctrine of the Trinity is fully developed in the Bible, but the word itself is not there.

Answer 3

Actually the trinity doctrine is a false god dishonouring doctrine you should appreciate it, since it helps you with your god dishonouring dogma>

*** T-18 pp. 3-4 Jehovah’s Witnesses—What Do They Believe? ***

Jehovah’s Witnesses are no part of Christendom. In fact, Christendom was founded nearly 300 years after Jesus’ death, and its beliefs have greatly deviated from what Jesus taught. For example, we do not accept Christendom’s belief in the Trinity, which teaches that Jesus is God himself. Nowhere do the Scriptures contain this blasphemous teaching. (Deuteronomy 6:4; Mark 12:29; John 14:28) We do not use the cross as a symbol, nor do we employ statues in any way as part of our worship. These are all things that the Bible condemns.—Exodus 20:3-5; 1 John 5:21.

Answer 4

Trinity is not in the bible because there is no trinity. There is one Spirit, working in 3 offices, as God the Creator, & in his Son Jesus Christ & as the Holy Ghost, All the selfsame spirit working as 3 different offices. And NOT 3 different persons. God & Holy Ghost is NOT a person but A SPIRIT. Example, I am a brother, a father, a husband, I hold those 3 office title, But it is all by the same spirit within me.

Answer 5

The word "Trinity" comes from "Trinitas", a Latin abstract noun that most literally means "three-ness" (or "the property of occurring three at once"). Or, simply put, "three are one". The first recorded use of this Latin word was by Tertullian in about 200, to refer to Father, Son and Holy Spirit, or, in general, to any set of three things.(Theophilius to Autolycus - 115-181 - introduced the word Trinity in his Book 2, chapter 15 on the creation of the 4th day).

Answer 6

Most reasonable answer to this query I've found is in Voltaires Philosophical Dictionary under the passage on "Antitrinitaires; Anti-trinitarians".
"That this unintelligible doctrine is nowhere to be found in scripture."
"That Saint Augustine himself, after he had advanced a thousand reasonings as false as they are obscure on this subject, was obliged to admit that nothing intelligible could be said about it."

So, for trinitarians, it comes down to faith in a doctrine of obscure origin and authority. Coptic and some so-called "gnostic" Christian theosophies do not rely on concepts of trinity.

Answer 7

Trinity means...doctrine that God exists as three persons—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—who are united in one substance.
The word trinity doesn't have to be in the Bible.

That's a weak question.

Answer 8

Why do MichaelXtians play with fire, when he will surely get his little hands burnt by it, someday [soon] ?

Jude 1:15-19 (KJV)

To execute judgment upon all, and to convince all that are ungodly among them of all their ungodly deeds which they have ungodly committed, and of all their hard speeches which ungodly sinners have spoken against him. These are murmurers, complainers, walking after their own lusts; and their mouth speaketh great swelling words, having men's persons in admiration because of advantage. But, beloved, remember ye the words which were spoken before of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ; How that they told you there should be mockers in the last time, who should walk after their own ungodly lusts. These be they who separate themselves, sensual, having not the Spirit.

Answer 9

It's something that's inferred based on a good understanding of the Bible.

Answer 10

Because it isn't in it.
Justification has been added by the catholic church, at various places to make it seem ok, but in the original texts it wasn't there.
