Act 20:35, Saint Paul records a saying not found in the Gospel.
Romans 10:17 Faith comes from what is heard.
John 21:25 Not everything Jesus said recorded in Scripture
1 Cor 11:2, Hold fast to the traditions I handed on to you.
Bible Alone dogma is a man made doctrine that is not found in the Bible.
Jesus teaches through outward signs instituted by Jesus Christ to give Grace, and written Scripture.
Both form the Word of God.

Neither the word "Trinity" nor the idea of it is in the Gospels. According to the trinity doctrine, God is composed of three co-equal, co-eternal persons. There is not one verse in Scripture that defines God in those terms.
The trinity did not become "Christian" until well after the Bible had been completed.
The word "Christianity" is not in the Bible either. However, the word "Christian" is there, though not in the Gospels. ( Acts 26:28) The suffix "ity" is used to form an abstract noun expressing state or condition: jollity; civility. Thus, the word "Christianity."

Neither of these words are in the "gospels" (Matt, Mark, Luke and John) but "Christian" is in Acts 11:26, 26:28 and 1 Peter 4:16
This does not mean it does not exist. Computers were are not in the Bible either but I know you have to believe they exist You used one to ask this question. The concept of the trinity is very much in the Bible and as I showed you, Christian is in there. Lets look at the 2nd use of the word in Acts 26:28. Paul had just witnessed about the living Lord to Agrippa when Agrippa said:" almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.
What a tragic statement...almost...but lost.
Please do not let this happen to you....

no because the People in the Gospel were Jews and did not believe in the trinity.

What`s your problem kiddo ???
You don`t need to wage war on words alone. If you don`t agree on word: Christianity, Trinity...the hell do you care. Do your own thing...
Are you an atheist? Is there any description in the bible for great guy atheist? If you are atheist, you should not be reading Christian bible by the way...it`s against your principle.
Are you Muslim/Islam? Is there such word as yours in the bible too? and we catch you reading our bible.
...or you haven`t read any Christian bible yet and dare to questions the contents
...or if you don`t understand the contents...how about asking in a good manner, and we will gladly tell you everything in it.

This is the kind of question that makes me want to POKE MY EYE OUT!!!
The gospels do not define these terms.
These terms are a result of the gospels.
This is grammatically speaking of course.

No,but you can get very many refferences in the bible talking of the Three-some nature of God.And about Christianity,that was just a label given to the first believers,because they were doing things in the same way as Christ,so they were lebelled Christ-ians,as in,Christ-like.
