Only Christians who actually believe in the Trinity :0)

There are many Christians that do indeed talk about the first commandment, which is, as we all know, "There is no other God before me." The belief of the trinity is not considered polytheism, because the idea still employs that there is only ONE God, but just in various forms. A great example of this is water. Water is ONE THING that comes in three different forms. Water can be found as a solid, a liquid, and a gas but when it all boils down to it, it is still just water. The same applies to God. He can manifest Himself in the form of God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit, yet He is still just one being with 3 different forms - just how water is one composite with 3 different variations.

Christian do plenty of commentaries on the !st Commandment and they,Catholic,Orthodox and Protestant,know that the Trinity is not polytheism. Do you realize that the Trinity is One God in Christian teaching?

Until God said so, there is only one God, although Jesus will become one, to lead others into the same godliness. But until that happens Christians should stay worshiping one God and the Son of God, reason been is that we has to see through our own experiences than the Father and the Son are two separate entities, and the Father is in command.

God is the ONLY God- the trinity is very hard to grasp but in my humanity I will try to explain in earthly terms, something that really cannot be-
A man is one person correct? But does each man have only one description?
what I mean is- a man can be a husband, a father and whatever he does for a living? I know this is extremely simplistic- but if we can be more than one thing and still be one person. for those who may be more intelligent than I, please forgive me, but sometimes we have to look at things from a simplistic view.

The trinity is not polytheism. It refers to a plurality of aspects of a single entity. (It is also fiction.)

Jesus said " I and My Father are ONE"
King David prayed to God in Psalms "Take not THY Holy Spirit from me"
I don't see Polytheism in that.I see unity.
