At Deuteronomy 6:4, the Hebrew text contains the Tetragrammaton twice, and so should more properly read: “Jehovah our Almighty God is one Jehovah.” (NW) The nation of Israel, to whom that was stated, did not believe in the Trinity. The Babylonians and the Egyptians worshiped triads of gods, but it was made clear to Israel that Jehovah is different.
Texts from which a person might draw more than one conclusion, depending on the Bible translation used
If a passage can grammatically be translated in more than one way, what is the correct rendering? One that is in agreement with the rest of the Bible. If a person ignores other portions of the Bible and builds his belief around a favorite rendering of a particular verse, then what he believes really reflects, not the Word of God, but his own ideas and perhaps those of another imperfect human.

The first recorded Trinity was from ancient Egyptian religions. Osiris/Isis/Horus
It's true, read the history of religions.
Btw, the entire bible is "borrowed" and has many, many historical inaccuracies.

Yes and No. Osiris was one of the chief gods [so to speak] Isis was his sister/wife, they had a son Horus. Osiris was a god who had a brother Set - they both fought and Set dismembered Osiris [long story short]. Isis with her sister were able to find Osiris' body parts except for one and put Osiris back together by binding him [as in mummification] where he became the lord of the underworld. Interestingly the underworld was a heavenly place where one could spend eternity in bliss. The major god of Egypt was RA the sun but there were so many different gods within the Egyptian pantheons that it is difficult and confusing to find our specifically if Osiris could be considered JC or God himself as the beliefs of today would have it.

On the other hand it is possible that the trinity is the same as the above mentioned scenario, but the trinity really consists of four. Strange but true. There is God the Almighty, then his son, then the holy ghost, but as the claim is made today - JC and the Almighty one are the same Almighty One [god incarnate] so you actually have four. It absolutely makes no sense at all. I think there was to much wine at that party.

Please site an academic source that describes Babylonian or Egyptian gods specifically being worshipped in triads. Even better, show them being worshipped a three in one, because going from a triad grouping to a trinity is still a significant jump. I keep seeing this get tossed around R&S but haven't been able to find a single reputable source backing it up.

You cannot be saved without the Trinity. All thre persons of the Trinity have their role in redemption.

Jhn 6:44 No man can come to me, except the Father which hath sent me draw him: and I will raise him up at the last day.

So, you need the Father to be saved.

Jhn 3:36 He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

So, you need The Son to be saved.

Tts 3:5 Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

So, you need the Holy Ghost to be saved.

Yep, you know it.

Religion may be based on books. However, real spirituallity does not care about translations and political groups (i.e. churches).

Read the book in many translations. Follow the directions. You will get the answer.

No. Are you really asking to get information, or are you just bashing Christianity again?

Christians believe in the ONE true God.
