With all due respect to Mormon’s, an ‘unorthodox’ view of the Trinity is the least of their divergences from the faith taught by Jesus Christ.

!!!

The LEAST?!? I am speechless that a Christian would say such a thing! :O

Yes, shocking isn’t it ;).

An understanding of the Trinity isn’t always the ‘starting point’ for faith, and many Christians struggle some time with the concept. In the end, it is not in theologians or learned men that we base our faith, but the Word of truth in scripture. If something does not exist with sound biblical reading, then it is our understanding which is at fault, not scripture.

I believe that the Bible, read with humility and through the guidance of the Spirit, will eventually lead to an understanding of the Trinity. The difficulty though, is that the Trinity is not a ‘human’ concept, and flies in the face of much that the world teaches. God however, is not bound by human ‘wisdom’, and with Him all things are possible.
