What’s your definition of the Trinity?

Break the word down:

"Tri" = 3 (as in 3 persons)

"nity" = short for "unity" [these 3 are united as ONE]

What's REALLY funny 1010 is that Mormons talk ALL THE TIME about God in the singular! [Including MUCH of their "scriptures"]

You would think that since they make a HUGE DEAL about being anti-Trinitarian that they would emphasize the plurality of their gods much more than they do.

But they don't.

Why? (1) would chase off many potential proselytes; (2) not very good PR/image.

And so they purposely live in that tension... promoting plural gods when it's convenient to militate against the Trinity; and promoting a single God when it's convenient to "sound" Christian!

My Trinitarian blessing for you, 1010: May the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit be with you... (2 Cor. 13:14)
