You are correct a mundo. Trinity is a flase teaching.
Just as simple as that.
The facts those who believe in the trinity use are contradicting. Such as, Is Jesus praying to himself, when he calls out while on the torture stake, Matthew 27 verse 46, About the ninth hour Jesus called out with a loud voice, saying: "E'li, E'Li, la'ma sabachtha'ni? that is, My God my God, why have you forsaken me? Surley he is praying to his Father in Heaven, not himself.
Etc. Etc. Etc.

Jesus sought to enlighten the disciples to the term Son of Man. He correctly quoted a Psalm where all people are called children/sons/daughters of God.
Jesus was God, claiming an oneship w/ the Father. John's Gospel holds the clearest claims along this line.
The Son of Man was a unique title which created a great deal of controversy because it was considered blasphemy / heresy to do such. The most frequent description of Jesus in the Gospels is nevertheless Son of Man - check out Mark for examples.

God calls Jesus "my son" and Jesus calls God "my God and Father". It never says Jesus claimed to be God or God claimed that he was an equal. In fact, the Bible says that the head of the Christ is God.

Jesus and God the Father are one along with the Holy Spirit - it's called 'The Trinity'. 1 John 5:7 - For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

It never says Jesus is God. It says He's the Son of God. Sometimes he is refered to as Jehovah, which means God in Hebrew, but in this translation it is meant to be the Son, or Jesus Christ (Isa. 12:2).
There are many scriptures where Christ talks about His father, and being the Son of God. He prayed to God many times. He prayed while He was in Gathsemany, He prayed when he was on the cross, He went to the mountains to pray (Matt 14:23). All this tells me that they aren't the same person.
God is His father. Not only of his body, but of His spirit too. Christ was with God from the beginning. He helped make the earth, He helped make Adam and Eve. Him and God are two seperate beings. They always have been and always will be. They are one in purpose, but not one in body. Christ is part of the Godhead, which includes God, Christ and the Holy Spirit. They all work together. Christ is our advocate to the Father. He is our savior. He died for all of us. Christ will be the one to judge us. He is the one we look to as our example.

He is God and the Son of God. He is both man and God. Its hard to explain to someone who doesn't read the Bible through. In 1st. Corinthians it said Jesus is of God so He is God.

Understanding the trinity.
Atoms
The atom defines the most basic unit of every chemical element in the universe. The word atom comes from the Greek word for "indivisible," yet while it represents the purest essence of one element, the atom has three facets, with the positively charged proton and neutral neutron at its core, and the negatively charged electron outside the core that balances its electric charge and interacts with other elements.
Trisecting a line as the basis for design in creationLife
The physical design of the human body, and that of many other life forms, is based on a relationship known as the Divine Proportion, or Golden Section. This proportion is based on trisecting a line such that the ratio of the small piece to the large piece is the same as the ratio of the large piece to the entire line. It is also found by solving an equation with three terms, x3 - x2 - x1 = 0.
Nature of man
The nature of man is expressed as mind, body and spirit, analogous to, and in the image of, the triune nature of God. It's interesting to note that Genesis relates man being made by "us" in "our" image when referring to God, indicating the plurality in His nature.
Life on Earth
Life on Earth inhabits three domains, the sea, the land and the air.
Holy Trinity
Following the three-in-one nature that is found throughout creation, we find the three-in-one nature of the One God manifested in the Holy Trinity, with each Being revealing a different aspect of our God and Creator to us:
The Father, the part of God that is transcendent, infinite and beyond our understanding,
The Son, Jesus Christ, the part of God that is immanent and appeared to us in the way that we could best know Him, in human form. He was both "Son of God," an expression of God as contained in human form, and at the same time "Son of Man," the ultimate expression of who we can be in our most divine form.
The Holy Spirit, the part of God that lives in the heart and soul of each of us, acting as our Counselor for those who believe and listen to His voice within us.

Jesus himself referred to his Father as “the only true God.” (John 17:3) Jehovah himself said: “Besides me there is no God.” (Isa. 44:6) The apostle Paul wrote that, to true Christians, “there is . . . one God the Father.” (1 Cor. 8:5, 6) So Jehovah is unique; no one else shares his position. Jehovah stands in utter contrast to all such objects of worship as idols, deified humans, and Satan. All these are false gods.
Jesus is spoken of in the Scriptures as “a god,” even as “Mighty God.” (John 1:1; Isa. 9:6) But nowhere is he spoken of as being Almighty, as Jehovah is. (Gen. 17:1) Jesus is said to be “the reflection of [God’s] glory,” but the Father is the Source of that glory. (Heb. 1:3) Jesus in no way seeks the position of his Father. He said: “It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service.” (Luke 4:8) He exists “in God’s form,” and the Father has commanded that “in the name of Jesus every knee should bend,” but this is all done “to the glory of God the Father.”—Phil. 2:5-11.
Is Jesus Christ actually God?
John 17:3, RS: “[Jesus prayed to his Father:] This is eternal life, that they know thee the only true God [“who alone art truly God,” NE], and Jesus Christ whom thou hast sent.” (Notice that Jesus referred not to himself but to his Father in heaven as “the only true God.”)
John 20:17, RS: “Jesus said to her [Mary Magdalene], ‘Do not hold me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God.’” (So to the resurrected Jesus, the Father was God, just as the Father was God to Mary Magdalene. Interestingly, not once in Scripture do we find the Father addressing the Son as “my God.”)
See also pages 411, 416, 417, under the heading “Trinity.”
Does John 1:1 prove that Jesus is God?
John 1:1, RS: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God [also KJ, JB, Dy, Kx, NAB].” NE reads “what God was, the Word was.” Mo says “the Logos was divine.” AT and Sd tell us “the Word was divine.” The interlinear rendering of ED is “a god was the Word.” NW reads “the Word was a god”; NTIV uses the same wording.
What is it that these translators are seeing in the Greek text that moves some of them to refrain from saying “the Word was God”? The definite article (the) appears before the first occurrence of the·os´ (God) but not before the second. The articular (when the article appears) construction of the noun points to an identity, a personality, whereas a singular anarthrous (without the article) predicate noun before the verb (as the sentence is constructed in Greek) points to a quality about someone. So the text is not saying that the Word (Jesus) was the same as the God with whom he was but, rather, that the Word was godlike, divine, a god. (See 1984 Reference edition of NW, p. 1579.)
What did the apostle John mean when he wrote John 1:1? Did he mean that Jesus is himself God or perhaps that Jesus is one God with the Father? In the same chapter, verse 18, John wrote: “No one [“no man,” KJ, Dy] has ever seen God; the only Son [“the only-begotten god,” NW], who is in the bosom of the Father, he has made him known.” (RS) Had any human seen Jesus Christ, the Son? Of course! So, then, was John saying that Jesus was God? Obviously not. Toward the end of his Gospel, John summarized matters, saying: “These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, [not God, but] the Son of God.”—John 20:31, RS.
