I would disagree, the relationship of the Father/Son and the Holy Spirit are well documented in Scripture.

I did not say it was not. I said it is not mentioned. Where is the Trinity mentioned? Chapter and verse of what translation includes "Trinity?"

The understanding of the Trinity as it is comes from the Holy Spirit and Jesus as the Author and Perfector of our faith.

Of course it does. It also demonstrates the fallacy of sola scriptura.

While we disagree here, you do respond quickly. Trinity the word is not in the Bible. Does that invalidate the concept. Rhetorical question to you, because you are a believer.

The understanding of the Trinity as it is comes from the Holy Spirit and Jesus as the Author and Perfector of our faith. Of course it does. It also demonstrates the fallacy of sola scriptura.

Christians ascribing to Sola Scriptura don't discount the work of the Holy Spirit or claim that Jesus isn't the Author and Perfecter of their faith. As they are affirmed by the literal Word of God, the Lord's work and the abiding nature of the Holy Spirit are likewise affirmed by the 'Sola Scriptura Christian. Again, "by the fruits ye shall know them". Not all claiming 'sola scriptura' are, just like some within the Catholic church that don't hold to the Catholic doctrine are Catholic.
