The Trinity:
The Bible teaches that there is one God (Deuteronomy 6:4) (1 Timothy 2:5) (Isaiah 45:5).
Yet, the Bible also teaches that there are distinctions within the Godhead or that there is a plural nature to God.
Here are a couple of quick points:
#1. The word Elohim (אֱלֹהִ֔ים) is both a singular and a plural noun.
#2. God refers to Himself in plural form (Genesis 1:26) (Genesis 3:22) (Genesis 11:7) (Isaiah 6:8).
#3. Plurality of God in New Testament (Matthew 28:19) (2 Corinthians 13:14) (John 14:16-20).
#4. Introductions to both the Son & Holy Spirit (Daniel 7:9,10,13,14) (John 14:16)
#5. Different persons of Godhead appear at one time (Luke 3:21-22)
#6. Distinctions of Wills (Luke 22:42).
#7. Conversations Between the Godhead (Psalm 2:1-12) (Psalm 45:6-7) (Psalm 110:1) (Matthew 11:27) (John 17:24).
The Trinity is told to us in one verse.
“For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.” (1 John 5:7).
Romans 1:20 says,
"For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:"
Meaning, even nature itself declares the Godhead (or the Trinity).
Atoms = Nucleus, Protons, Electrons.
Water Molecules = Hydrogen Atom, Hydrogen Atom, Oxygen Atom.
Man Made in God's Image = Physical Body, Spirit Body, Soul.
Although the word "Trinity" is not found within the Scriptures, the word "Godhead" is used instead (Acts of the Apostles 17:29) (Romans 1:20) (Colossians 2:9).
I agree there are some problems with oneness Pentecostalism but at least they are closer to the truth than those who believe the false trinity doctrine.
The Lord God Yahweh is one Lord, not three.
Eph 4:4-6
4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
Deut 6:4
4 Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord:
Isa 44:24,6,8
24 Thus saith the Lord, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the Lord that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
6 Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.
8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee from that time, and have declared it? ye are even my witnesses. Is there a God beside me? yea, there is no God; I know not any.
James 2:19
19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
1 Corinthians 8:6
6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
Yahshua is the Lord God.
The holy spirit of Y.H.W.H the one true God says, Yahshua the Christ is the Son of God. Luke 3:22, Matthew 3:16-17
Also the Apostle Peter called Christ Yahshua the Son of God in, Matt 16:16
Thomas called Christ Lord and God in, John 20:28
Yahshua called himself God in, John 8:58, John 10:29-30, 36-38, John 17:11, 21-22
Yahweh says Yahshua is his son and calls Yahshua God. Hebrews 1:2-8
Yahshua says that the father dwelleth in him, and that he and the Father are one. John 14:9-11
Yahshua is the Image and the fulness of the Godhead(Yahweh) bodily. Collosians 1:14-15, Collosians 2:8-9, Romans 8:29
Yahweh says a son will be born, and that sons name will be God with us, the Mighty God, and the everlasting Father.Matt 1:22-23, Isaiah 9:6-7, John 5:43
The Lord God Yahweh is the Father(Yahweh) The son(Yahshua) and the holy spirit. And he is one(The Father, Yahweh). 2 Corinthians 3:13-17, John 15:26, Phillipians 2:5-12, 1 Timothy 3:16, john 1:1,14; Gal 3:20
1 Timothy 2:3-5
3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
4 Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
1 Corinthians 12:4-6
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.
1 John 5:7-8
7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.
1 Corinthians 8:6
6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
Eph 4:4-6
4 There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling;
5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,
6 One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
There are Dozens more passages that show Christ Yahshua, The Holy Spirit, and The Father YHWH are all YHWH.

There is not a trinity, the Lord God is One not three. The son Yahshua is the Father YHWH as the son. The Holy spirit is the Spirit of the Father Yahweh as the Holy spirit. And the Father Yahweh is the Father Yahweh. All three exist at the same time and all three are the Father YHWH. There are different administrations that perform different operations but it is the same God Yahweh that worketh in all. Great is the Mystery of Godliness.
On earth water is the best example we have to try and explain the mystery of Godliness. Water can exist in three forms liquid solid and gas, but in all three forms it is still water. So to is the Lord God the father the son and holy spirit in all three forms he is still one God(YHWH) not three separate beings. This is in no way a perfect example and does not fully explain the mystery of Godliness, it is only the best example we have in nature.
The Trinity is a Satanic doctrine that comes not from the bible but from False teachings given at the council of Nicaea. The first Christians had the fullness of the Gospel delivered unto them by the Holy spirit and by the Apostles. The Trinity is not found any place in the bible, only the belief and fact that there is only One God. Even the devils believe there is only One God(James 2:19) and Tremble.
Declared all the counsel of God(Acts 20:26-28)
Be mindful of the words spoken by the prophets and the commandments of the Apostles and Christ(2 Peter 3:1-2, 15-18)
Keep the sound words given by Paul(1 Timohty 1:13-14)
Fully known the Doctrine, continue in things learned(2 Tim 3:10, 14-15)
Laws of God (Rom 13:2,9-10)
Stablish according to the Gospel and preaching of Christ(Romans 16:25-27)
Fully preached the Gospel of Christ(Romans 15:19,29)
Acknowledge things spoken as commandments of the Lord(1 Cor 14:37)
Gospel received by Revelation of Christ(Gal 1:6-12)
Christ the same today yesterday and tomorrow, so to is the word of God the same. (Hebrews 13:8-9)
Keep the Commandments given by Christ(John 14:21,23, Matt 28:20)
Holy word of God is of no private interpretation (2 Peter 1:20-21)
They did not believe in the Trinity since it wasn't even a thought until more than 60-90 years after Paul's death and even then it was only supported by sects of people that had strayed from the True Christian faith/Doctrine and was only a partial form of the trinity doctrine introduced by the Catholics. The Trinity was not supported by more than a minority of People(claiming to be Christians) until the Council of Nicaea when Constantine gave it his support in 325 Ad. Then in 384 ad it came to the Final form most know it as today. The trinity is not supported by Scripture, by the Apostles, or by the Words of Christ. It is a False doctrine.
May the Truth and light of the Lord God Yahshua the Christ Guide you.
