do you believe in the Trinity?

Question

You know the Lord, Jeasus, and the Holy Spirit. Does anyone believe in them? is so, why?

Answer 1

Yes:
"For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word [Jesus], and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one."
--1 John 5:7

Answer 2

I don't because these false apostles did not see God as a single undifferentiated being but the God who revealed Himself as tri-personal.

The false apostles began incorporating unbiblical beliefs almost immediately after the Apostles passed away. The most difficult thing about the Trinity Doctrine is that there is no way to adequately explain it.

The Catholic authorities themselves are baffled by their own doctrine and cannot explain why the one God would be composed of three persons and how three persons can only equal one, and how one can be composed of three.

This is why many modern day Trinitarian Theologians reject the King James Version of the Scriptures and prefer the new modern liberal altered versions of the Bible.

The Lord has already gave us this warning and it is written, "Be not carried about with various and strange doctrines." Hebrews 13:9

The first use of the Latin word "trinitas" (trinity) with reference to God, is found in Tertullian writings.

Tertullian was the first to use the term "persons" in a Trinitarian context. Tertullian is not a prophet.

As early as 180 A.D. , church apologist Theophilus, bishop of Antioch, first uses the term “Trinity” to describe God. Theophilus is not a prophet.

Most scholars realize that the Trinity is a Doctrine of Tradition of men and not a Truth of the Bible. See Matt. 15:1-9, Mark 7:9, Col. 2:8-9, 2 Pet. 2:1, 1 Tim 4:1-3, 2 Tim. 4:2-4.

This is why many who defend the Trinity Theory quote the teachings and philosophies of men like Theophilus, Augustine, Tertullian, Cyprian, The Pope, Plato, etc.

Trinity Is Not A Christian Idea. Trinity Not Mentioned In Bible A check of any concordance will prove this fact. Not only is it not mentioned but the doctrine is neither found in the New Testament nor the Old Testament.

Answer 3

I initially just believed in Jesus and God. But then I received the Holy Spirit in a very manifest way, and He is obviously not the Jesus who walked upon the Earth 2000 years ago, as the Spirit of God living in all genuine christians' spirits, whether they know it or not. So I had to investigate theology a little to understand my experiences. I was talking to Jesus intimately in prayer as He was very close at that time - I was so aware of being forgiven and entirely accepted by God.

So the Trinity doctrine describes experiential realities. Also you can see Jesus, the Holy Spirit and God the Father all described as God, and having the same character as one another in many references in the new Testament.

There are many things in the bible that require brain effort to come to a comprehension. For instance, to study the healing ministry you need to study teaching on it, events and so on in many books of the bible, as well as books by people in the Churches down the Age. It isn't all just handed to you without any effort on your part.

Answer 4

I've never heard of "Jeasus" before, but I have heard of Jesus, and no, I do not believe in the holy trinity. I do believe in spell check though, you ought to use it before posting next time.

Answer 5

My Wife and I do not believe in the trinity. The word trinity is not even found in the bible. If Jesus would have been part of a trinity he would have told us so. My Son and I are one, we stand for the same thing. But my Son will never be me and I will never be my Son. Jesus said the Father is greater than I am. The trinity teaches that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are coequal. Jesus said that his Father was greater.

Answer 6

Yes I do. I am still learning.
Jesus is the Word which became flesh ( John 1:1-)

This is a hard subject to grasp but God can take our doubt. He gave us our intellect so He expects a lot from us.

I have a personal relationship with God, I know it is real. God communicated to me through His Word ( the Bible ) and through people and circumstances. Holy Spirit is guiding me since I asked Holy Spirit in my heart. I still have a free will, and sometimes I do not follow the path God has chosen for me.

Answer 7

There is but one eternal, all-powerful, all-knowing and everywhere-present Triune God—Father, Son and Holy Spirit— who is the creator and sustainer of all things (Deuteronomy 6:4-5; 1 Timothy 2:5).

Answer 8

No, I don't believe in God or the Holy Spirit.

I believe that Jesus existed and was crucified, but I don't think he was divine or the son of any divinity, just an incredible philosopher. I don't think it diminishes his message for him to be just a human being with wonderful ideas.

Answer 9

Absolutely, I have seen and been through way too much for there not to be a Father Son and Holy Spirit guiding and protecting.

Answer 10

No. I do not. To answer this question we need to know when it arose. The answer is: not till 300-400 years after the days of Jesus and his apostles. It is a striking fact that the "early Church Fathers" -- the theologians who wrote in the period 100-300 A.D. -- knew nothing of it, and frequently uttered opinions which contradict it. For the majority of them there was no question of Jesus' being "co-equal and co-eternal with the Father". He was subordinate to God his Father, and was regarded as a "created Being". The teachings which now make up the Doctrine of the Trinity were the decisions of a number of general Church Councils. These are the most significant:

325 A.D. First General Council at Nicea, declared that the Son was from the beginning of the same nature as the Father.

381 A.D. Second General Council at Constantinople, declared that the Holy Spirit was to be worshipped with the Father and the Son.

431 A.D. Third General Council at Ephesus, decreed that Jesus had two natures, a human and a divine; also that Mary was the "mother of God", in opposition to those who maintained that she was the "mother of Christ".

451 A.D.
Fifth General Council at Chalcedon, decreed that the two natures in Christ constituted only one Person and one will.
