"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." -- John 1:1

Good point, however can you establish that Christ=scriptures.

Christ said, “I and my Father are one,” that is not the same as saying “I am my father.” Be careful not to open loopholes.

I my last post I said that scripture was added much later. I point out that Christ also came much later.

Every word of Scripture, both Old and New Testaments, signifies Jesus Christ.

"That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God.

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." -- John 1:9-14

The Trinity is the greatest truth in Scriptures. It would be so much easier to embrace a duality of God. But the Trinitarian mystery alone proclaims the strength of Christianity.
