Book Cover & Preview Text
The Trinity doctrine according to the online Merriam Webster Dictionary is defined as, “the unity of the Father, Son and Holy Spirit as three persons in one Godhead” and then they add, “according to Christian dogma”. Our Christian churches stand behind this doctrine at all costs. Even though they cannot explain how a three in one God can be, we are told not to question and believe it as truth with faith. Questions, however, do arise. What does it mean to be three persons, but all three somehow in one Godhead? How does this make them all the same God? What is a Godhead? Where in the Bible, does it say that the Holy Spirit is God? Where is one scripture that tells us Jesus is the same as his Father in heaven? Does God split into three different entities? Do they act as a committee? How do you explain, the Trinity? The truth is, there is not one scripture anywhere that defines this doctrine. There are a few scriptures used to support it, but each of them, do not really define a three in one God at all. The scriptures shown could read, in other ways. In our Bibles, we do not even find the word, “Trinity”. Could it be that the Trinity is not really a doctrine of truth? Could it be that there are three separate powerful beings who are not equal and not somehow, mixed into the same God? When we read the Bible, the Bible reads as if they are separate beings. The Bible tells us, that God refers to Jesus as his Son. Jesus refers to God, as his Father. Jesus also reveals many times, that he was “sent”. If Jesus was sent, then someone must have directed him to go. Jesus followed those directions. If one directs the other, then are they equal? Jesus said at John 6: 38 (NIV Bolding added for emphasis.), “For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.” Jesus says himself that he did not come on his own. He said, he was sent. That scripture describes two different wills. If there are two different wills, then there must be two different beings who are not the same.

About the Book
Most Churches teach that God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are equal beings and somehow, the same God. They themselves admit, “It is a mystery beyond our comprehension.” Still however, they want us as followers, to accept this belief with faith despite the fact they cannot explain it. Because of this and the lack of support from the scriptures, do we not have every right to question it? Do the scriptures show there is a three in one God? Jesus said at John 6: 38 (NIV, bolding added for emphasis) “For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of him who sent me.” This scripture describes two wills. If there are two wills, then there must be two beings. If one sends the other, then one is evidently in charge which means they cannot be the same or equal. Many other scriptures concur, such as 1 Corinthians 11: 3 (NIV) that reads, “… the head of Christ, is God.” The book highlights the scriptures used for support of this doctrine and includes the contexts that surround those same verses to show that the Bible does not teach a triune type of God anywhere. This book offers over one hundred scriptures that combine to prove the falseness of the teaching of the Trinity. Besides more than enough scriptural evidence, the book also brings into focus how other Bible versions render those same “Trinity” scriptures and dives into the history of this doctrine. When these things are all exposed, the Trinity fails to deliver as truth.
