    There is plenty reveal about the Godhead RLT. A Single sovereign All Powerful God besides him there is none other. Exodus 3:14: When Moses asks for God's name, God responds, "I AM WHO I AM." This statement reveals God's eternal and self-sufficient nature. He exists independently of all...

    Elie, you don't need to prove this truth its a fact. The weight of responsibility is for them to prove the dogma from Scripture and they know they can't. They are trapped within their own false doctrine. F2F

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    I just provided one, no? Would you like another? Thus it is written, “The first man Adam became a living being (from the dust)”; the last Adam (also dust) became a life-giving spirit. 1 Cor 15:45 Became... Out of interest David - if Paul was right to call Christ the second Adam - how could...

    How did the Trinity doctrine develop in the early church?

    We can only assume that you're suggesting John wrote the complex Trinitarian formula, and it seems like you're making an argument based on special pleading in an attempt to support a point that ultimately doesn't hold. Hope you gain some sense of self fullment from that excercise F2F
