Read up the thread and see what it was in response to. To say that God "appointed" Christ invalidates the Trinity.

No. That sort of phrasing is in Scripture in a place or two. Nothing can invalidate The Trinity.

**To say that God "appointed" Christ invalidates the Trinity.**

I don't know if 'appointed' is as accurate as 'anointed' or 'ordained'.

In the words of Peter (the original subject of the thread):
"How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power..". Acts 10:38
"..it is he which was ordained of God to be the Judge of the quick and the dead." Acts 10:42

I'm sure Peter understood the Godhead, too. If anyone would say otherwise, they would be insulting the Lord, for he taught his disciples, and before ascending, opened their understanding, that they might understand the scriptures.
