I still have not seen one verse denying the Divinity of Jesus Christ or the Holy Spirit.

I'm not speaking here for Eagle Eye, but I have noticed some innuendo on this thread insinuating that I am denying the Holy Spirit.

Let me make this very clear....so no one misunderstands.

I believe the concept of a "Trinity" encompassing God the Father, Our Saviour and the Holy Spirit is not biblical, nor was it taught by the Apostles. I believe it to be a Roman heresy right out of the Babylonian tradition and perpetuated by the Church as an early doctrine established by their Magesterium.

In no way, shape or form does this belief cause me to dispute the existence of The Holy Spirit.....nor the fact that Our Saviour is the Son of God.

Where is your evidence for that? The term "Trinity" was originally coined by Tertullian [200 AD] before the Roman Church was organized in the 4th century. And before Tertullian, there was Irenaeus, Hippolytus, Theophilus, Cyprian, and others --- well before the Roman Church. They no more invented the Trinity than they did the Bible, despite their claims.
