To be clear I'm not denying God, Christ, or the holy spirit. What I AM denying is a concept of the nature of the Godhead as defined by men 3 centuries after the death of Christ.

Scripture teaches that the father and son are members of the Godhead and that the holy spirit is the spirit of the father on earth. The holy spirit could also be the spirit of Christ since scripture also refers to the holy spirit as the spirit of Christ.

I hope that helps to clarify....if you read the article you can well see how long it took for the concept of the trinity to be developed.
