the concept of the trinity is pagan inspired paganism has definately influenced Christianity its not philosophy or interpretation its documented history of the Trinity concept which was invented long after Jesus death
Tertullian who developed this trinity concept was a man who was raised as a pagan and converted in his 40's to Christianity and although conservative, he did originate and advance new theology to the early Church which never existed before most importantly the concept of the Trinity
http://www.tertullian.org/
Scripture contains neither the word Trinity, nor an expressly formulated doctrine of the Trinity. Rather, according to the Christian theology, it "bears witness to" (as some believe) the activity of a God who can only be understood in trinitarian terms. The doctrine did not take its definitive shape until late in the fourth century.
During the intervening period, various tentative solutions, some more and some less satisfactory were proposed. the trinity concept that we have now is much different than what was originally developed 150+ years after Jesus death
Col 2
8 Beware lest anyone cheat you through philosophy and empty deceit, according to the tradition of men, according to the basic principles of the world, and not according to Christ. 9 For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily
yes dwells IN Jesus , dont you believe that God dwells in you and inspires you? thats why Jesus said " i go to my Father and your Father , my God and your God "
