Christian theologians should help the world to understand the “Trinitarian monotheism shows the true face of God,” Pope Benedict XVI said in a December 2 address to the International Theological Commission....

....Pope Benedict next addressed the question of how scholars can identify authentically Catholic thought. He observed that many Christians take the Bible as the ultimate source of authority, but said that reliance on Scripture, while necessary, is not sufficient. “The Bible is always necessarily read in a certain context,” the Pope said, “and the only context in which the believer can be in full communion with Christ is the Church and her living Tradition.”

There. Fixed it. The Pope needs to be more accurate.

“Christian theologians should help the world to understand the “Trinitarian monotheism shows the true face of God”

John 14:28:

“for my Father is greater than I”

1 Corinthians 15:28:

“And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all”

The clearly established biblical doctrine is Jesus Christ the son, the father being greater and above all.
