***This is a rather poor translation into English. Try the Greek instead. God is not a person, nor is he three persons, as we understand persons.

It took your religion 400 years to acknowledge that God is a Trinity...***

I don’t have a religion. The Trinitarian doctrine took hundreds of years to formulate and understand. It is difficult; so very difficult that a large portion of Protestants fail in that understanding even today.

***Followers of the Apostles knew about the Trinity for 400 years before your crew would accept it.***

Which followers? Where is your proof?

***Where do you guys get off criticizing Spirit filled, Bible believing Christians???***

Actually, I’d say that you ought to turn that sentence around. You criticize Spirit filled Bible believing Christians with almost every post that I have read. Our criticisms are not with those who follow God.

It's a pity the Apostle Paul wasn't around when your church 'formulated' the doctrine of the Trinity...I'll bet he would have liked to have known what it was all about...

So Jesus tells the Apostles that He and the Father are one...And they say, huh?, We don't get it...Maybe in a few hundred years someone will figure it out...

The only thing crazier than your assertation is that you guys seem to actually believe it...
