ok how about Issac, Abraham, Sollomon, Adam....etc did they worship the trinity or only the God who sent them?
ok how about Jesus
"my God, my God, why haven't you forsaken me?"
"Hear O Israel, the Lord is our God, the Lord is One".
17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
"The LORD he is God in heaven above, and upon the earth beneath: there is none else. " Deuteronomy 4:39
See now that I, even I, am he, and there is no god with me. Deuteronomy 32:39
But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him. 1 Corinthians 8:6
Christians = throw the words of Jesus away, and let's believe in trinity anyway. let's pick the verses that fit with what we believe and ignore the rest.

Well seeing the idea of the trinity wasn't made up until Jesus turned up i would say the one true god.
Trinity is just something false religion made up by twisting or half using scriptures by people who are to lazy to fully study and try to understand the bible in context

There is quite a difference between the Hebrews of Old Testament and the Hewbrews of the new Testament. Remember that in the old Testament the "talk" of Christ was happening so there wasn't the "Trinity" as we know it so to speak. God had revelead himself to Abraham, Issac and Jacob as "I Am." There was a prophecy of the Messiah but by then God revealed himself directly to his people, Moses on the Mount -the burning bush, Jacob with Beth-el when he saw the ladder with angels ascending and descending...etc...
By the time the prophets of the new Testament had come around, if you notice, the frequency of God showing himself diminished and he had more of a representation in the form of Jesus the Christ and the Holy Spirit ( when John baptized Jesus the Holy Spirit came down in the form of a dove).
As God began to set up his "church" his son was sent to die for the sinners of the world. There were many who rejected Jesus as the Christ, so they wouldn't believe have believed in the Trinity.
The Trinity is a hard concept to grasp. I really do understand the confusion that comes along with it, however each individual entity is sent to us for one reason only and that is to establish a relationship with God.
I hope this helps!=)

For you the Blind that is so full of yourself ! You that lack
great understanding .The word Trinity is not found any where in the Bible but was formulated by man to better understand
the teachings from Jesus . Father , Son , Holy Spirit are all
one in the same but 3 different persons . there is but one God,One Lord ( Son of God ) who God Himself talks about from Genesis right on through to the end of Revelation and the
Holy Spirit who God has sent to Help us until the Rapture .
Which at that time will return to God . It is not worshiping the
word trinity but Believing Our Holy Father , Jesus Christ ,
& the Holy Spirit that make a Trinity . We would have to get
into Bible Doctrine to go any further on this . But you reject
Gods Word and can not even understand the little things
how then can you even begin to understand the bigger things
of God ? May God show you your sins and reveal His truth
to you , Amen ....

you're crazy...
the people of the old testament didn't believe in the trinity b/c there wasn't a trinity yet. jesus & the holy spirit make up the rest of the trinity along with god the father. you are taking things way out of context here. the trinity is three in one so what you said here doesn't even make any sense.
when jesus said "my god, my god why have you forsaken me?" he was speaking to his god, his father. don't forget he was still a human being here on earth. he was suffering just as we do here and he was wondering if his god, his father was there...just like we do. it's not a sin. it's human nature.

I am so happy you asked this question. Jesus said if you believed Moses you would have known him (Jesus) because he (Moses) wrote of him. Jesus was giving you the absolute truth. The first book of Moses called Genesis God says let US create man in OUR image. God formed man from the dust (flesh) the he breathe in life (spirit) and the two became a living soul. Man is more than just flesh but ahs an eternal spirit...This is the image of God who is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Not satisfied yet? Adam and Eve were placed in the garden there are two trees in the midst of the garden...these two trees represent the two natures of God. One was the tree of knowledge of good and evil the other was the tree of life,
These trees represent Gods righteousness and his mercy.
The tree of knowledge of good and evil is the law and the day man ate of it he would surely die...Why because man could not live up to God's righteousness the other tree in the imdst of the garden was the tree of life, God's mercy, salvation through Jesus Christ eat of this tree and you wiull live forever.
Chrsitians are following Christ and his words which are the word of God.. Christ taught the atonement agreed that Isaiah 53 was the scripture he must fufill. Moses, Abraham and Isaiah told of the coming of Christ who would atone for sin...this is the word of God and Jesus agreed with it and taught it...It is you my friend who have been deceived, Jesus taught no man came to the Father but through the Son they are one God.

Genesis 1
God the Father is the Creative energy, God the Son is the Word of God (human manifestation of God), God the Holy Spirit is the uniting, convicting, and enabling spirit that indwells the believer and carries out sort of connecting functions. All of them are God, of the same essence and the same value and the same everything...The trinity is ONE GOD who is composed of Three personalities who all have their distinct contribution to the whole.
All of your scripture quotations are "proof texts" and are therefore invalid. Scripture cannot be used out of context.
Moses experience the trinity, and worshiped it even though he did not understand it...God is God. He's not parts of God.

Even angels of Jesus don't know about Trinity, It was Saint Paul who introduced some 300 years after jesus, and he was inspired from pagans

Huh?...you are trying to reconcile various contradictory parts of the Bible? Good luck.
The Bible was written over thousands of years by hundreds of authors...they could not get the story straight and since then thousands of people have spent untold hours trying to come up with logical explanations for all the contradictions.

Jesus was Moses's 'focus point' of worship,but other 'supernatural' beings were their to 'help'. (An addition to God's word may hinder some from seeing that presently).
So what is your real question on here presently?

Moses (peace and blessings be upon him) worshiped only ONE God.
The trinity makes three, it is wrong. 1+1+1=3 NOT 1
