Glenn Colley Though “Trinity” is not a word found in the Bible, the idea is there. It refers to the “three-in-oneness” of God; Three persons, one essence.
1Tim. 2:5 For there is ONE [unus] GOD [A Single]Ben Giselbach justifying the TRINITY Word: Second, just because a word is not found in the Bible doesn’t mean it can’t be useful in capturing Biblical concepts. Words like atheism, divinity, incarnation, and monotheism are not found in the Bible either, yet we still use them. (Even the word Bible is not found in the, well, Bible.) We just need to ensure Scripture defines OUR doctrine of the Trinity, instead of us projecting an extra-biblical understanding onto Scripture.

Eph. 2:3 Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others.

Alexander Campbell The Trinitarian System.
The Trinity -- Alexander CampbellNow I object to their making him and calling him an "Eternal Son" because I think that if he were only the Son of God from all eternity, he is entitled to very little, if any more glory, than what the Arians give him.
CALVINISTS: I wish to give him more glory than the Calvinists give him.
They are as far below his real glory, in my judgment, as the Arians are in their judgment.
To understand the relation betwixt the Saviour and his Father, which existed before time, and that relation which began in time, is impossible on either of these theories.
There was no Jesus, no Messiah, no Christ, no Son of God, no Only Begotten, before the reign of Augustus Cesar.
The relation that was before the christian era,
was not that of a son and a father,
terms which always imply disparity;
but it was that expressed by John in the sentence under consideration.
The relation was that of God,
and the "word of God."This phraseology unfolds a relation quite different from that of a father and a son--a relation perfectly intimate, equal, and glorious.
1st. A word is a sign or representative of a thought or an idea, and is the idea in an audible or visible form.
It is the exact image of that invisible thought which is a perfect secret to all the world until it is expressed.2d. All men think or form ideas by means of words or images;
so that no man can think without words or symbols of some sort.3d. Hence it follows that the word and the idea which it represents, are co-etaneous, or of the same age or antiquity.
It is true the word may not be uttered or born for years or ages after the idea exists, but still the word is just as old as the idea.
4th. The idea and the word are nevertheless distinct from each other, though the relation between them is the nearest known on earth.
An idea cannot exist without a word, nor a word without an idea.5th. He that is acquainted with the word, is acquainted with the idea, for the idea is wholly in the word.
Now let it be most attentively observed and remembered, that these remarks are solely intended to exhibit
the relation which exists between a word and an idea, and that
this relation is of a mental nature,
and more akin to the spiritual system than any relation created, of which we know any thing.
Tertullian an inventor of trias: But, first, I shall discuss His essential nature, and so the nature of His birth will be understood. We have already asserted that
God made the world, and all which it contains,
by His Word, and Reason, and Power.
It is abundantly plain that your philosophers, too,
regard the Logos-that is, the Word and Reason-
as the Creator of the universe. [Regulative Principle]
And we, in like manner, hold that the Word, and Reason, and Power,
..........by which we have said God made all,
have spirit as their proper and essential substratum, in which
the Word has in being to give forth utterances,
..........and reason abides to dispose and arrange,
..........and power is over all to execute.
We have been taught that
He (reason) proceeds forth from God,
and in that procession He is generated;
so that He is the Son of God,
and is called God from unity of substance with God.
For God, too, is a Spirit.
Even when the ray is shot from the sun,
..........it is still part of the parent mass; the sun will still be in the
ray, because it is a ray of the sun-
..........there is no division of substance,
but merely an extension.
Thus Christ is Spirit OF Spirit, and God OF God, as light OF light is kindled.
The material matrix remains entire and unimpaired,
though you derive from it any number of shoots [Light, Wisdom, Grace] possessed of its qualities;
so, too, that which has come forth out of God
is at once God and the Son of God, and the two are one. In this way also, as He is Spirit of Spirit and God of God,
He is made a second in manner of existence-in position, not in nature;
and He did not withdraw from the original source,
but went forth.
This ray of God, then, as it was always foretold in ancient times, descending into a certain virgin, and made flesh in her womb,
..........is in His birth God and man united.
And so this is the most common understanding among the church fathers. The the word is the SON of the speaker as FATHER then there is no problem trying to sort out how a LITERAL son of god could be equal with the Father or of the same age.1st. A word is a sign or representative of a thought or an idea,
and is the idea in an audible or visible form.
It is the exact image of that invisible thought
which is a perfect secret to all the world until it is expressed.2d. All men think or form ideas by means of words or images; so that no man can think without words or symbols of some sort.
3d. Hence it follows that the word and the idea which it represents,
are co-etaneous, or of the same age or antiquity.
........It is true the WORD may not be uttered or born

........but still the WORD is just as old as the IDEA4th. The idea and the word are nevertheless distinct from each other, though the relation between them is the nearest known on earth.
........An idea cannot exist without a word,
nor a word without an idea.5th. He that is acquainted with the word, is acquainted with the idea,
for the idea is wholly in the word.By putting together the above remarks on the term word,
we have a full view of what John intended to communicate.
As a word is an exact image of an idea,
so is "The Word" an exact image of the invisible God.As a word cannot exist without an idea, nor an idea without a word,
so God never was without "The Word,"
nor "The Word" without God;or as a word is of equal age, or co-etaneous with its idea,
so "The Word" and God are co-eternal.And as an idea does not create its word nor a word its idea; so God did not create "The Word," nor the "Word" God.
Romans1:20 having the attributes which makes one god. He speaks of a youth growing up to MANHOOD.
Rom. 1:19 Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them;Godhead does not mean three gods or with the pagans a Three-Headed God. When you are rooting for likely passages to contradict other clear statements, it is Purpose Driven by God and you fail to read the text. Glenn Colley says that Jesus was one of three complete God persons from eternity. However, Paul corrects this by saying. It was Jesus of Nazareth who came in the flesh and not the "I AM the Lord-God of Abraham."
for God hath shewed it unto them.
Rom. 1:20 For the invisible things of HIM from the creation of the world are clearly seen,
being understood by the things that are made,
even HIS eternal POWER and GODHOOD; so that they are without excuse:
The latter day "trinity" was invented by H. Leo Boles and first published in 1942. John Mark Hicks credits Max Lucado and Rubel Shelly with making the heresy popular. Hicks is also made popular the "communion" folly of the trinity making the claim that God couldn't exist withoug Jesus and the Holy Spirit gods. The Mormons use John Mark Hicks who declared that God couldn't exist as a MONO as in monotheism.

Mark 10:18 And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God.
Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

Luc. Icar.9 As to Gods, I need hardly deal with that question. Fo some of them God is a number; some swear by dogs and geese and plane-trees 2. Some again banish all other Gods, and attribute the control of the universe to a single one; I got rather depressed on learning how small the supply of divinity was. But I was comforted by the lavish souls who not only make many, but classify; there was a First God, and second and third classes of divinity. Yet again, some regard the divine nature as unsubstantial and without form, while others conceive it as a substance. Then they were not all disposed to recognize a Providence; some relieve the Gods of all care,Godhead is also: hosi-otēs , ētos, hē,
Those who are IN Christ also partake of the Divine Nature
2Peter 1:4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises:
.....that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature,

Jesus said that He didn't pray for the World, Komos in the Ecumenical sense: the kingdom of the Devil. Jesus created
We need to back up and see that Jesus would not have been the Messiah unless he came in the FLESH. Those who deny that are called ANTICHRISTS.
Rom. 1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of GOD, [Theos]Glenn Colley says:
Rom. 1:2 (Which he had promised afore by his PROPHETS in the HOLY scriptures,)
Rom. 1:3 Concerning his Son Jesus Christ our Lord [Kurios],
which was made of the SEED of David according to the FLESH;
Gal. 3:16 Now to Abraham and his SEED were the promises made.Neither Jesus nor Christ are "god" Words. Messiah, says Moses would be "another prophet like me." He would be a king of His SPIRITUAL kingdom or creation. If you deny that Jesus of Nazareth whom God MADE TO BE both lord and Christ John says:
He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one,
And to thy SEED, which is Christ.
2John 7 For many deceivers are entered into the world,And only later to begin the Spiritual Creation:
who confess not that Jesus Christ is come in the FLESH.
This is a deceiver and an antichrist.

Rom. 1:4 And declared to be the Son of God with power,
according to the spirit OF holiness,

Of is a preposition: the Spirit OF holiness is not a person.

Rev. 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness,Rom. 1:5 By whom we have received grace and apostleship,
and the first begotten of the dead,
and the prince of the kings of the earth.
Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood,
for obedience to the faith among all nations, for his name:

Rom. 1:6 Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:That AND means that Jesus is declared NOT to be God. He was neither Lord or over His Spiritual Kingdom until He was born and God GAVE Him these roles and authority.
Rom. 1:7 To all that be in Rome, beloved of God, called to be saints:

Acts 2:36 Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God [Theos] hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord [Kurios] and Christ.Jesus of Nazareth was anointed when the DOVE rested on Him and did not go INSIDE and Jesus owned Him as His Son.

Both Jews and Gentiles were "wise unto salvation" because they attended the once each week (a pattern) reading assembly:
Acts 15:21 For Moses of old time
hath in every city [travel limited to about 700 feet]
them that PREACH him,
being READ in the synagogues every sabbath day
But, then and now the RULERS are ignorant
Acts 13:27 For they that dwell at Jerusalem, and their RULERS,
because they knew him not,
nor yet the voices of the prophets
which are read every sabbath day,
they have fulfilled them in condemning him
Luke 4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was,
he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to READ.
Acts 13:15 And after the READING of the law and the prophets
the rulers of the synagogue sent unto them,
saying, Ye men and brethren, if ye have any word of exhortation for the people, say on.
ALL PAGAN TRINITIES WERE A GOD FATHER, A MORTAL WOMAN (SPIRIT) AND A NOT NICE SON. SCRIPTURE ALWAYS SPEAKS ANTITHESIS.
Hermes-Mercury-Kairos was the pagan Word or Logos: he was perverse, musical but the mediator between men and the GODS.
As ANTITHESIS, God's Word or Logos is what he SPEAKS without needing anyone to help him.
Matt. 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto ME in heaven and in earth.
Matt. 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the NAME (singular) of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:
Matt. 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you:
and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.
Peter and ALL of the others in the New Testament understood Jesus to repudiate the always-pagan trinity."The nearest approach to a formal announcement of the doctrine of the Trinity which is recorded from Our Lord's lips, or, perhaps we may say, which is to be found in the whole compass of the NT, has been preserved for us, not by John, but by one of the synoptists. It too, however, is only incidentally introduced, and has for its main object something very different from formulating the doctrine of the Trinity. It is embodied in the great commission which the resurrected Lord gave His disciples to be their 'marching orders even unto the end of the world.' (Int Std Bible Ency., p. 3017)
"It does not say, 'In the names [plural] of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost"; nor yet 'In the name of the Father, and in the name of the Son, and in the name of the Holy Ghost,' as if we had to deal with three separate Beings. (Int Std Bible Ency., p. 3017)
The Jews: Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for (in order to) the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. Acts 2:38 Discussion of Eis,... Part Two,... Doctor Jack Lewis on Eis or For.
The Samaritans: (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.) Acts 8:16
The Gentiles: And he commanded them to be baptized in the name of the Lord. Then prayed they him to tarry certain days. Acts 10:48 (not lords)
Rebaptized after Pentecost: When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. Acts 19:5
Apostle Paul: And now why tarriest thou? arise, and be baptized, and wash away thy sins, calling on the name of the Lord. Acts 22:16 [This is the clear proof that the "pastor" has no authority to pronounce but Paul was to call on the name consistent with Proselyte baptism]
And I answered, Who art thou, Lord? And he said unto me, I am Jesus of Nazareth, whom thou persecutest. Ac.22:8
I verily thought with myself, that I ought to do many things contrary to the name of Jesus of Nazareth. Ac.26:9
Romans 6: Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death? Romans 6:3
Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life. Romans 6:4
Corinthians: Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul? 1 Corinthians 1:13
And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God. 1 Corinthians 6:11
Galatians: For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. Galatians 3:27
James: Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called? James 2:7
Glenn Colley: Three persons called gods, so connecected, similar, all bear the same attributes that they are three but one"Baptism was the sacrament of entrance into the church. The baptized person, who at that time, of course, was a pagan adult, had to confess that he would accept the implication of his baptism.
Then he was baptized in the name of Christ. Later on, the names of God the Father and the Spirit were added. As yet there were no accompanying explanations; this was faith and liturgy, not yet theology." (Tillich, p. 18-19)
Trinitarians are also wrong because they never intend to GO nor to limit themselves to teach and observe what HE commanded to be taught. He certainly never said that He was one of three gods. God the Father whose name is "I AM the God of Abraham.." BREATHED or inspired Jesus who then spoke ONLY what the Father breathed into Him.
John 12:49 For I have not spoken of myself;In the same Way God through Jesus His Son SENT evangelists but they have no intention of obeying the PATTERN.
but the Father which sent me, he gave me a commandment,
what I should say, and what I should speak.
John 12:50 And I know that his commandment is life everlasting: whatsoever I speak therefore, even as the Father said unto me, so I speak.
John 14:10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
John 17:11 And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee.GOD IS LIGHT OR THE WORD HOWEVER,
Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me,
that they may be one, as we are.
The Holy Father of Jesus gave Jesus His Name and Jesus always spoke only what the [1] Father [2] Inspired [3]Him to say.
John 17:21 That they all may be one [unum]; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me.
Is. 44:8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses.
Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
Is. 45:5 I AM THE LORD, and there is none else,
there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
Is. 45:21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together:
who hath declared this from ancient time?
who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD?
and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour;
there is none beside me.

Glenn Colley: Deut 6.4 hear o israel one God. Elohim plural term. Is One. for ONE means acombination of things COMBINation.
God eleminated the elohim when He said that He was Lord (YHWH) the only true El.
1. The word “God” is Elohim, which is itself a plural form and, like most other words, has more than one definition. It is used in a plural sense of “gods” or “men with authority,” and in a singular sense for “God,” “god,” or “a man with authority, such as a judge.” The Hebrew lexicon by Brown
But Moses Wrote:
2. Elohim is also translated as the singular “god” or “judge,” and there is no hint of any “compound nature”
Deut. 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD [YHWH] OUR God [Elohim] is ONE LORD: [YHWH]Even as trinitarians have MANY GODS, the Elohim were lords or masters as was Moses. A god is what or who you pay attention too. However,
Deut. 6:5 And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.
God always declares that He YHWH is the only real Elohim or Divine being.
Is. 45:18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself
that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it,
he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited:
I am the LORD; and there is NONE ELSE
O Lord [Jehovah] of hosts, God of Israel, that dwellest between the cherubims, thou art THE God,

For though there be that are called gods,

one Lord Jesus Christ,
BY whom are all things, and we by him 1 Corinthians 8:6
Glenn Colley and the trinitarian sect say
that Jesus is God and the Holy Spirit is
God and each is a complete god.
However, they are united or one in mind and operation. That is Antichrist because it
calls all of Scripture a lie and are marked by not
being able to read BLACK text on
BROWN paer.
Hermes-Mercury-Kairos was the Greek LOGOS: he invented Apollon's lyre, was a thief and a liar and a pervert. He was the intercessor between men and their gods. He was part of a trinity. As the usual ANTITHESIS God does not need two other gods to enable him so that His Logos is what one SPEAKS. A word is what one speaks and is never a person except maybe by theologians.
Notice the who did the creating:
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:2 The same was in the beginning with GOD.
John 1:3 All things were made BY HIM and without him was not any thing made that was made
God SPEAKS and it is DONE. He doesn't need a BREATH god and a SPEAKING god to enable him. The WORD in the sale class as LIGHT and KNOWLEDGE becomes flesh when one speaks THAT WHICH IS WRITTEN FOR OUR LEARNING. Don't hold your breath.
You will notice that the Word, Logos or Regulative Principles makes the STAFF jobs pretty scarce as Paul did not Ephesiahs 4.
Jesus as the WORD is theJohn 1:9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

John 1:10 He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.
Jesus didn't pray for the World or Kosmos.
The Kosmos speaks of decorating the World
Also Kosmos, is the ecumenical or the kingdom of the Devil.
THE TWO WORLDS AS THERE IS A VIPER RACE AND A SPIRITUAL RACE
2Pet. 3:5 For this they willingly are ignorant of,
that by the WORD of God the heavens were of old,
and the earth [fruitful places] standing out of the water and in the water:
2Pet. 3:6 Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished:
2Pet. 3:7 But the heavens and the earth,
which are now,
by the same WORD are kept in store,
reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
Jesus didn't pray for the world or those OF the World. His disciples will speak only THE WORD and those OF the World will hate them and murder them. Therefore the spiritual ANTITHESIS is not that physical creation by the Elohim.
John 1.10 in mundo erat et mundus per ipsum factus est et mundus eum non cognovit
Jesus came to seek and save the Jews who were willing to be saved. However, those He defines as blind and deaf cannot hear Him. He died for the sins of the whole world and therefore created an new Spiritual Kingdom.Mundo to make clean, to clean, cleanse
1. Ceremonially, according to the Levitical law of uncleanness: “et purificabis eos (sc. Levitas),” Vulg. Num. 8, 6.—
2. Spiritually, from sin: “ab occultis meis munda me,” Vulg. Psa. 19, 12: “mundemus nos ab omni inquinamento carnis et spiritūs,” id. 2 Cor. 7, 1.—Hence, mundātus , a, um, P. a., cleansed, clean (late Lat.); in comp.: “quam sim ab illā peste mundatior,”
mundus A. Of speech, neat, fine, elegant (poet. and in postclass. prose): “verba,translation of logos, Ov A. A.
C. In eccl. Lat., morally pure, upright, free from sin: “cor mundum crea in me, Deus,” Vulg. Psa. 50, 12: “beati mundo corde,” id. Matt. 5, 82. Trop., decently, with propriety: “dicere,
1Tim. 4:12 Let no man despise thy youth; but be thou an example of the believers, in word, in conversation, in charity, in spirit, in faith, in purity.
He made or Built His Ekklesia or or world upon the confession that HE was the Christ: not that He was God.
mundus , the world as opposed to the church; this world, the realm of sin and death,John 1:11 He came unto his own, and his own received him not.
as opposed to Christ's kingdom of holiness and life: “non pro mundo rogo,” Vulg. Johan. 17, 9: “de mundo non sunt,” id. ib. 17, 16: “princeps hujus mundi (i. e. Satan),” id. ib. 12, 31; “14, 30: regnum meum non est de hoc mundo,” id. ib. 18, 36; cf. id. Eph. 2, 2; 6, 12.
regnum II. Meton. (abstr. pro concreto), a kingdom: “grates tibi ago, summe sol, quod conspicio in meo regno et his tectis P. Cornelium Scipionem,” Cic. Rep. 6, 9, 9:
grātes (usually only in the nom. and I.acc. plur.; in the abl. gratibus, Tac. A. 12, 37), f. gratus, thanks rendered (esp. to the gods: gratias agere being the usual form to human beings), thanksgiving: “
A. Of speech, neat, fine, elegant (poet. and in postclass. prose): “verba, Ov A. A. 3, 479: versus, quibus mundius nihil reperiri puto,” Gell. 19, 9, 10: “in Gallos mundius subtiliusque est, quam cum Gallis aut contra Gallos,” id. 17, 2 med.—
Jesus said that God HIDES fro the Wise or Sophists: speakers, singers, instrument players or any human imagination.
He speaks only to the simple who obeys the command from the wilderness onward: PREACH the Word by READING the Word in the Once-a week pattern. That is the command and the Biblical examples.
John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
Jesus is God's Son in the same sense that Disciples are Sons:
John 20:17 Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father:
but go to my brethren, and say unto them,
I ascend unto my Father, and your Father;
and to my God, and your God.
Wouldn't that be silly if Jesus WAS God?
The Gnostic Trinitarians were disturbing the church and John wrote several centuries after Christ to clear up some follies.
NOTICE WHOM JESUS CALLS BLASPHEMERS:
1. Jesus ALWAYS says that He is the SON of God.
2. The Jews claimed
Glenn Colley says that Jesus IS God.John 10:33 The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not;
but for Blasphemy;
and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
3.
Jesus called those who accused Him with blasphemy,
BLASPHEMERS.
