Where Did the Trinity Teaching Come From?

[Alter2Ego]

1. Is the Trinity a Bible teaching?
2. Did Jesus Christ, the founder of Christianity teach it?

The specific word no, but the concept yes. (Perhaps because that specific word does not exist in Aramaic the spoken language of Christ) Christ Himself identifies The Father in heaven, Himself as the Son, and the Holy Spirit. When He said blaspheme of the Holy Spirit was the only unforgivable sin.

ALTER2EGO -to- DRICH:
Suppose you present scriptures from the Judeo-Christian Bible to prove what you're saying? Telling me that "the concept" of a trinity appears in the Bible while you admit the word "trinity" is not in the Bible indicates you're expressing an opinion. Everybody has opinions. To rise above that, one must present evidence. Without scriptures that prove the existence of a 3-prong god, the "concept" of Trinity exists only in the minds of Trinitarians.

3. Did his early apostles and disciples who accompanied him teach it?

During the ministry of Christ no, it was not till after the day of Pentecost did they come to full revelation of the Holy Spirit of God (in acts chapter 2) Afterwords the Concept of the Holy Spirit is acknowledged and taught.

ALTER2EGO to- DRICH:
If anything, the incident at Pentecost proves that the holy spirit is not a person. But that's another issue. I'm trying to find out from you if Jesus' early apostles and disciples ever went around teaching people that God is a Trinity. You admitted in your response above: "During the ministry of Christ no."

I will be more specific with the question: Did the early apostles and disciples of Jesus Christ teach the Trinity before or after Jesus left the earthly scene? Yes or No?

4. Where does the word "Godhead" come from?
5. Does the word "Trinity" appear anywhere in the Bible?

These terms drive from a doctrine that tries to compile the whole of scriptural teaching in a singular easy to understand concept.

ALTER2EGO to- DRICH:
The word "Godhead" appears at three places in the Judeo-Christian Bible. Do you know whether it was part of the original inspired writings? Yes or no?

You didn't answer question 5: Does the word "Trinity" appear anywhere in the Bible?
