It's John 2:19, not 1 John 2:19.

"Destroy this temple [understood to be euphamism for His Body], and I will raise it again in three days."


Thanks for the correction. My bad.

In these three examples we have the the Father, the Spirit and Christ Himself raising Himself.

Requires a vivid imagination, or better yet, an "authority" to tell you what to see.

However, one will not find much trinitarian in St. Paul's wiritngs. In fact even in Romans 8 where he mentions the Spirit of God, he is using the term distinctly in the OT manner as power of God and not a distinct Hypostasis.

One will nto arirve at any trinitarian forumla by focusing on St. Paul.

Aren't you the person who gave the two citations from Paul to "prove" the Trinity in Scripture?

I agree.

Agree again! Yet when you ask other Protestants they will tell you just the opposite. I am quite certain that +Paul did not believe in the Holy Trinity because his gospel (as he called his preaching) does not reveal it.

I did, but it was borrowed from a Protestant poster who believed it was a "proof." :)
