The Trinity is not in The Bible, neither is the Nicean Creed yet “Christians” ignore that fact.

The Trinity is certainly mentioned in the bible...not bu that name, but reference to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit are certainly there and to simplify referring to the three persons, Trinity came into common useage. The Nicene Creed is merely a compilation of what Christians believe....all the beliefs are in the Bible, the creed allows us to state our beliefs in an organized manner. Read it, you will learn a lot!!!

The Son Of God is mentioned over and over again in The New Testament. The Father called him “beloved Son” Matt:3-17, Jesus said he was “The Son Of The Blessed” Mrk 14-61,62 Over and over again he is acknowledged to be “The Son of God. Yes, he does say once, “If you have seen me you have seen The Father”. We used to use the expression, “he is the spitting image of his father. John 5:19 “The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth The Father do”
The Savior constantly prayed to The Father. What was the purpose of that? The scriptues are clear the Father, Son,and Holy Ghost are three separate beings working in harmony together.
