***DrStevej, This is where sola scriptura logically leads...***

LDS (restornu's faith) are not sola scriptura folks. They add to the Bible other books, revelations (D&C) and Magisterium-like teaching and declarations (two thus far).

Be that as it may, the LDS view of the Trinity is one that comes naturally from, and in fact is the most honest interpretation of, the relavent scriptures re: the Trinity, divorced from the traditions of the early Christians that lead to the correct (orthodox) interpretation of those scriptures.

Only by presupposing the Trinity as Tradition already defined it does one read into those relevent scriptures the doctrines we both share today regarding the Nature of God as orthodox Christians.
