Answer 1

The doctrine of the Trinity is encapsulated in Matthew 28:19, where Jesus instructs the apostles: "Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit."

The parallelism of the Father, the Son, and the Spirit is not unique to Matthew’s Gospel, but appears elsewhere in the New Testament (e.g., 2 Cor. 13:14, Heb. 9:14), as well as in the writings of the earliest Christians, who clearly understood them in the sense that we do today—that the Father, the Son, and the Spirit are three divine persons who are one divine being (God).

The Didache

"After the foregoing instructions, baptize in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, in living [running] water. . . . If you have neither, pour water three times on the head, in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit" (Didache 7:1 [A.D. 70]).

Ignatius of Antioch

"[T]o the Church at Ephesus in Asia . . . chosen through true suffering by the will of the Father in Jesus Christ our God" (Letter to the Ephesians 1 [A.D. 110]).

"For our God, Jesus Christ, was conceived by Mary in accord with God’s plan: of the seed of David, it is true, but also of the Holy Spirit" (ibid., 18:2).

Justin Martyr

"We will prove that we worship him reasonably; for we have learned that he is the Son of the true God himself, that he holds a second place, and the Spirit of prophecy a third. For this they accuse us of madness, saying that we attribute to a crucified man a place second to the unchangeable and eternal God, the Creator of all things; but they are ignorant of the mystery which lies therein" (First Apology 13:5–6 [A.D. 151]).

Theophilus of Antioch

"It is the attribute of God, of the most high and almighty and of the living God, not only to be everywhere, but also to see and hear all; for he can in no way be contained in a place. . . . The three days before the luminaries were created are types of the Trinity: God, his Word, and his Wisdom" (To Autolycus 2:15 [A.D. 181]).

Irenaeus

"For the Church, although dispersed throughout the whole world even to the ends of the earth, has received from the apostles and from their disciples the faith in one God, the Father Almighty . . . and in one Jesus Christ, the Son of God, who became flesh for our salvation; and in the Holy Spirit" (Against Heresies 1:10:1 [A.D. 189]).

Peace and every blessing!

Answer 2

Well .. let me give u a story..

A is a student whose girlfriend is B, and has a sister called C.

I can say:

A is a student
A is B's boyfriend
A is C's brother

But A is still 1 person, right???

So does the trinity concept.. The Father has different roles, Jesus has different roles, and the Holy Spirit has different roles too... but they are still the one.

And btw, I DONT THINK Muslims are bad people.. being a Christian born, raised, n grew in Indonesia ( the largest muslim population in the world) and now is living in Malaysia (another large muslim population), i have many Muslim friends ( in fact my room mate is a very commited muslim gurl).. and they are not bad people.. Of course i also know the bombing case in Bali (Indonesia) for the name of Islam (they said).. but i won't say that Islam ( the religion) is bad.. i think the person who created the chaos is bad!

'N about muslim being the biggest religion in the world by 2020 ( THEY SAID-who is they btw?) -- so what?

I am proud being a christian- My proudness does not relates to the number of christians are there in this world.. and you too right?? U shouldn't be proud to be a Muslim just because it is growing fast... even if (let say) Muslim is reducing in numbers, you STILL SHOULD be proud of your religion right?

Answer 3

How can you spell so badly???

I'll answer in basic terms here, since your question is friggin CONFUSING.

How can one god be three? Easy. (From a non-Christian, pagan point of view, mind you.) Go into a building with three or more windows on different walls. You see different things out of all of them, don't you?

But really, you're only seeing different PARTS of the whole. You're only seeing a piece at a time out each window. Outside, or on the roof, or whatever, you can see the entire area at once, but not while you're inside looking out the window.

Same with gods (or THE god, if you're Christian). They (he)have (has) different facets, too.

Answer 4

It's just nonsense invented at the marketing council of Nicea in 321 AD . The idea was to find tricks that would impress the ignorant pagans. Nonsensical ideas have that effect.
