****Don’t move the goalposts.

****That wasn’t what you originally asked.****

I asked where the idea of the Trinity was in the Bible. What would you consider the idea of the Trinity? Because I do consider it to be One God in three divine Persons. Maybe the problem is that we have different definitions.

Since my point is that the information in the Bible is insufficient for a normal person with no knowledge of Christian teaching to derive the idea of the Trinity, the quote you provided was an inadequate response to my question.

Then the doctrine of the Trinity would never have been developed using Scripture.

It’s in there, and it any *ordinary* person CAN find it.

Scripture is not that vague about that.

All that is is a justification for having a magisterium to tell others what to believe.

The HOLY SPIRIT is who leads us into all truth.

Committees are only known for screwing things up.
