John 21
16 He said to him again a second time, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?" He said to Him, "Yes, Lord; You know that I love You." He said to him, "Tend My sheep." 17 He said to him the third time, "Simon, son of Jonah, do you love Me?" Peter was grieved because He said to him the third time, "Do you love Me?" And he said to Him, "Lord, You know all things; You know that I love You." Jesus said to him, "Feed My sheep.
Amen Peter! Only God knows all things. Jesus is indeed God.

No I did not! Father, Son and Holy Spirit make up the ONE true God of the Bible.
Matthew 28:19 (NKJV)
19 Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the NAME (SINGULAR) of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit,
I'm totally aware how JW's TWIST nearly all of our Bible and what others say!

Welcome to the forums.
What do, or would, you call “three beings became one in the Hebrew God, a unity”?

Irrelevant to the fact that Jesus said the Father is the only true God. (See Jesus at John 17:3) Why is this not important to you?
By relying only on Scripture and plain reason, I am untwisting trinitarian dogma. Can you at least admit that there is no verse that contains the trinity doctrine? To avoid the inevitable Appeal to Strawman, there simply is no verse that reads something like The nature of God is a trinity - consisting of the Father, Son & Holy Spirit who are co-equal, co-substantial and co-eternal - and if you do not believe this, you cannot be saved but are damned to hell forever. If there were such a verse, it would be the most quoted verse in Scripture by those who claim one’s salvation depends on believing it. The concept of the trinity is so important that in 66 books, it is not mentioned once!
Rather than abandon this obvious 1st-Commandment-violating idol, trinitarians resort to ignoring or subordinating explicit teachings in Scripture to inferences (reading their doctrine into the non-trinitarian text), dualism and mystical artificial synthesis. By this technique, any doctrine can be so supported.
Are you JW? You're doing the JW TWIST! I said NAME is singular, referring to Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
Please pay attention for a change.
John 14
9 Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, 'Show us the Father'?

Wrangler. Nope, you're wrong. When God speaks to himself in Genesis WRYM (I don't know how your book translates it) it is always referred to in the plural, e.g., let us create man in our image. Again, a complete reading of the hebrew doesn't force mysticism or anything like it into a notion of God which is both singular and a multiplicity of persons. Eat it.

If you use that one scripture enough maybe someone will be persuaded. Just keep saying it over and over
Oh you're already doing that.

I have wondered the exact same thing! I mean REALLY! JW's run rampant here trying to rewrite our Christian Bible.

Get back on the highway of holiness
Joh 14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my word: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
Joh 14:3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I come again, and will receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
Joh 17:21 that they may all be one; even as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be in us: that the world may believe that thou didst send me.
1Jn 1:3 that which we have seen and heard declare we unto you also, that ye also may have fellowship with us: yea, and our fellowship is with the Father, and with his Son Jesus Christ:
1Jn 1:4 and these things we write, that our joy may be fulfilled.
# Problamatic if it is yachid and not echad, or echad and not yachid.
With the Father and with His Son (μετὰ τοῦ πατρὸς καὶ μετὰ τοῦ υἱοῦ αὐτοῦ)
Note the repeated preposition μετά with; distinguishing the two persons, and coordinating the fellowship with the Father, and the fellowship with the Son, thus implying the sameness of essence.

And why is that one Scripture not good enough? It's hard to imagine a stronger anti-trinitarian statement.
Except perhaps for 1 COR 8:6, 'For us, there is one God, the Father.' Also, I've posted dozens of Scripture. Here is another one. The most anti-trinitarian book in the whole Bible, John also explicitly tells us at 20:31 that everything he wrote was to prove something other than the idea that Jesus is God; namely, that Jesus is God’s Anointed. So, it is funny to see trinitarians try to twist 1:1 – and indeed, his entire Gospel - to have a purpose other than what John explicitly stated is the purpose of his Gospel!
Let me guess. Like mocking John 17:3 and 20:17, you will mock or disregard John 20:31 because you cannot handle a better interpretation of John 1:1 than the one trinitarians demand. Who does Saint John think he is, saying his Gospel is not to prove Jesus is God incarnate. Didn't he read his first verse? Oh, Jesus is not even referenced.
Pretending there is only one verse that goes againt your dogma but a mountain supports it is closer to the opposite of what is true. For instance, the Sh'ma says God is one. It does not say God is 3-in-1.
