i want a physical human not, a divine deity.

2006-09-05 16:57:21 · update #1

stop telling me its god or jesus cuz the idea came around 350 years after jesus was assumed dead. i dont think he would forget to mention it while he was alive because if he was connected to god then he would be infallible. i just want to know who inspired it besides constantine and paul of tarsus.

Yet again.

There is no way to say that a single human being came up with the idea of trinity because it is too old. It is older than Christianity (although the Christian version was approved by the Council of Nicea, one of them anyway). There was Osiris/Isis/Horus for the Egyptians, Artemis/Astarte/Hecate for the Greeks (following a common theme as being different aspects of the moon), the Fates of the Romans, The Morrigan (actually three goddesses) and the three faces of the Horned King or Cernunos for the Celts, and the list goes on. It is seen in too many cultures spanning too great a period of years for it to be pinned down.

I guess that the answer to your question that is closest is that the Council of Nicea did it, though.

Most date the beginnings of the doctrine of the Trinity to The Council of Nicea in 325 AD.

However, similar statements preceded it. These include those written by Lucian of Antioch (300), Gregory Thaumaturgus, of Neo Caesarea (270), Origen of Alexandria (230), Turtullian (200), and Ignatius (107).

The first use of the word "Trinity" was by Theophilus around 170 AD.

According to what i have research and reading lot of books, basicly trinity is not come from God but trinity is formulated by human and first came from Babylonia and begun developed by Emperor Constantine's role who was not a Christian (around 300 - 400 C.E) . Supposedly, he converted later in life, but he was not baptized until he lay dying. Regarding him, Henry Chadwick says in The Early Church: "Constantine, like his father, worshipped the Unconquered Sun; . . . his conversion should not be interpreted as an inward experience of grace . . . It was a military matter. His comprehension of Christian doctrine was never very clear, but he was sure that victory in battle lay in the gift of the God of the Christians." .......
The Encyclopedia Americana comments: "Fourth century Trinitarianism did not reflect accurately early Christian teaching regarding the nature of God; it was, on the contrary, a deviation from this teaching."
Where, then, did this deviation originate? ... well u can see below address

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).

I don't remember His name but the trinity is a false Satanic teaching! And your right it came from man & not from God.
The word "trinity" isn't even in the bible.
