YES, YES, YES, oh, and YES! I've studied religion my entire life. I got a B.A. in Religion and went to seminary for 2 years. I actually wrote a paper on the historical belief of this in my graduate work. If you research the Council of Nicia, which occured some time in 300AD (remembering of the top of my head). This council made the actual descision about the diety of Jesus. You see, there were many differing beliefs about who and what Christ was IN the Christian community. There was a strong belief that Jesus, while being the Messiah and Son of God, was not One with God. Through my study it appears that the decision for the Trinity belief was made largely on political reasons. The Trinity to me creates a Poly-Theism because it makes more than ONE Eternal Being regardless of the rationals arueing otherwise. There is ONE True God, Jesus is his First Born Creation, through which the Father made all Creation. While Jesus is before Time, He is still a Creation of the One God, the Father. That's what I believe, and anyone that says i'm not a Christian because of that is clueless.

I'm in that number.
God does things in threes and presented three aspects of himself to the world; not three separate persons. This is what Christians actually believed for the first 300 years after Jesus rose from the dead.
I thought once about a most worthless death I could die as a Christian. That would be: To be killed by an Islamic extremist for being a Pantheist; when I am an absolute Monotheist, according to Scripture.

The mystery of the Godhead is hidden from some (Luke 10:21-22 KJV). To others, it is revealed as One God, our Almighty Father, by the name of Jesus (Isaiah 9:6 KJV).
In the New Heaven, God has revealed himself to be One (Rev 4:2 KJV). Jesus is the God of the OT incarnate (Isaiah 44:6 KJV) who is also the Word manifested in the flesh (Tim 3:16, John 1:1, 14 KJV). And the Holy Spirit is God's spirit in the OT and the risen spirit of Jesus in the NT that dwells within us (John 4:24; 1 Cor 3:16-17 KJV).
I believe that the Almighty God holds three titles (Father, Son, and Holy Spirit), and goes by the name ... Jesus. Hallelujah Jesus!
May God assist your search to settle this question! Bless You!

Yes, Jehovah's Witness,' Mormons etc. believe that God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Ghost are separate beings.

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.
Colossians 2:9 For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

Jesus told us to preach the Gospel & baptizing in the Name of the Father, Son & Holy Spirit. If people don't accept the fulness of God, then they aren't true Christians.
Many people believe in God, but they aren't redeemed yet. They are in a pre salvation state & thinking about it.

There are several established christian religious groups that do not believe in the trinity. I think Jehovah's Witnesses is one.
