“approximately a third of protestant pastors don’t even believe in the divinity of Jesus, so the triune god doesn’t make any sense to them”
Right-O buzzard!
All Protestants that do not believe the Bible is the inspired Word of God, also doubt the teachings of that divinely inspired Bible. No shock there.
As such, they are probably not Christians.
As to the triune God making sense to humans... Revelation about the divine doesn’t make sense to humans. Doesn’t have to. We see that God is One in the Bible. We see each member of the Godhead has all the attributes of God. We rightly conclude there is One God who has three Persons. Settled in the face of cultic opposition more than a thousand years ago.
As such, mormonism the cult is nothing new. It is simply a recycling of cultic falsehood. Satan’s fashion show of heresies. The platform shoes of evil.
The wonder isn’t that mormonism is a collection of false teachings. The wonder is that God reaches out to mormons and offers to forgive their sin and give them eternal life... as He does to each of us. Wondrous!
Unfortunately, like the monkey trap where they put a nut inside a coconut shell, once a mormon grabs the heresies of mormonism, his hand is trapped on a path to a destiny apart from God for eternity. He can let go and accept God’s gift at any time, but he is often loath to admit the errors he accepted and so he clings to the nut of mormonism, held in place, thinking he has a treasure. It is a trap. May the One God open his eyes. That is what it takes.
Happy Thanksgiving,

I believe you are referring to these folk:
2 PETER 2:1-3
2 But there were also false prophets among the people, even as there will be false teachers among you, who will secretly bring in destructive heresies, even denying the Lord who bought them, and bring on themselves swift destruction. 2 And many will follow their destructive ways, because of whom the way of truth will be blasphemed. 3 By covetousness they will exploit you with deceptive words; for a long time their judgment has not been idle, and their destruction does not slumber.

Please explain in the following scripture, who Christ was talking to during his time in the Garden of Gethsemane prior to his crucifixion: to Himself or to His Father in Heaven?
Luke22:42 [KJV]
“Saying, Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done.”
“...Settled in the face of cultic opposition more than a thousand years ago.”
please explain who this group of men were who met and decided as a committee the true nature of the Godhead?
