The Holy Trinity is the unity of the one Godhead there are three separate persons who are coequal in power, nature, and eternity. This doctrine is derived from the clear teaching of Scripture, and is not a man-made doctrine.

The birth of the Lord Jesus Christ as described in the accounts in Matthew and Luke shows that the doctrine of the Trinity was not a later invention of theologians. Luke records what an angel said to Mary: The Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Most High will overshadow you. So the holy one to be born will be called the Son of God ....Luke 1:35
....the term MOST HIGH refers to God the Father, we have in Luke a concrete instance of the Holy Spirit, the Father, and the Son all being mentioned together in the supernatural event of the incarnation.

When Jesus Christ was baptized, the heavens opened and the Holy Spirit descended on him in bodily form like a dove. And a voice came from heaven: 'You are my SON, whom I love; with you I am well pleased' ...Luke 3:21-22. In these verses we see the Son being baptized, the Spirit descending upon Him, and the Father bearing testimony.

Jesus declared to the disciples, And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever -- the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you....John 14:16-17........ Our Lord here prays to the Father for the Spirit, and His emphasis on triunity is quite apparent,mentioning the three persons of the Deity and indicating their unity, not only of purpose and will but of basic nature.

The apostle Paul definitely taught the triune nature of God. He wrote: May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you all....2 Cor. 13:14.....It would have been difficult for Paul to give this benediction if the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit were not equal persons within the Godhead......Acts 17:24, the God who made the world and everything in it is the Lord of heaven and earth and does not live in temples built by hands. ..This forces us to an irresistible conclusion. As creation has been attributed to the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit singly and collectively, they are the ONE GOD. There cannot be three gods. The Scripture declares: Turn to me and be saved, all you ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other..Isa. 45:22. Hence there is unity in trinity and trinity in unity,and it tells us most emphatically that the Spirit of God created the world (Gen. 1:2), the Father created the world (Heb. 1:2), and the Son created the world (Col. 1:16).

and as the final instance of Trinitarian emphasis is that of the RESURRECTION of our Lord...... In John 2 Christ declared to the Jews, Destroy this temple, and I will raise it again in three days (v. 19).... John hastens to tell us that Jesus was speaking of the resurrection of His earthly body (v. 21). Other Scriptures, however, state that Christ was raised by the agency of the Holy Spirit (Rom. 8:11).... And Peter explicitly states that the Father raised the Son (Acts 3:26). So, again, God's Word affirms the triune nature of God..................We may not fully understand the great TRUTH of the Trinity. However, we can see the rays of light which emanate from God's Word and which teach us that, in a mysterious sense beyond the comprehension of man's finite mind, God is ONE in nature but three in person.....if there is still a cloud of doubt about the nature of GOD in Trinity,ur FAITH will make believe and accept this mysterious fact........God manifested as the Father, God manifested as the Son, and God manifested as the Holy Spirit! The Father shows God revealed in all his Omnipotent Glory, Might and Majesty, while the Son shows God revealed in the revelation of the Word, in Promise, in Judgment, in Salvation, in mercy, and and in Sacrifice. And the Holy Spirit is God revealed to man in His omnipresence to perform His will throughout the earth and in men. This is one God, and one Power, not three!....................GOD bless us all believers of CHRIST JESUS!!!! *

God gave us a brain to think, then He puts us in this world. Where we can use it to make simple calculations, because of how we see nature and cir tances happening around us. (meaning we make these calculations due to our experiences in life and observations in nature). Then suddenly He asks us to bring faith in something (trinity), which we have never experienced, nor is there to be found any prove of it in nature ?....Is that not injustice? *

Faith is Unconditional Trust and Believe in someone or something-. To believe in the Almighty, not because my ancestors or my race or my parents or my friends or my school teachers or my spouse or some book which men have written or my children or my ego tells me He exists,but because everywhere I look I see His power and creation .That is what I call faith. *
