Considering the fact that all of the scriptures from Genesis thru Malachi make no reference to a Trinitarian God

Ah, but you neglected the strange use of the plural that God uses when speaking in the beginning...

Genesis 1:26 And he said: Let us make man to our image and likeness...

Well, if I wanted to start technical arguements, I could have also discussed the use of the plural Elohim in the Hebrew word used for God (as opposed to the singular Eloh, which became Elah in Aramaic and Allah in Arabic). What I did was sufficient for a start.

**Genesis 1:26 And he said: Let us make man to our image and likeness...**

So God made two men, one with gray hair, and a dove. (sarcasm)

No, He made one image that had a spirit and a soul.

Jesus Christ was man, with a soul, and the Almighty Spirit of God in him doing the miracles. God "worketh all things after the counsel of his own will". Eph 1:11

A post following will take this in to detail. Stay tuned...
