See the creeds of the trinitarians. Scripture cannot be refuted. The one God himself identifies Jesus as elohim / theos. That presents no problem to Jewish monotheism. I wouldn’t go that far.

I work as a volunteer. It has rewarding moments but it also causes me to experience mental anguish, and sometimes gives me nightmares. We don’t speak much these days @2bme but I appreciate the help you‘ve given me in easing some of the stress that comes from doing that work.

If you change your registration from “Other Faith” to “Christian” you will automatically have the privilege of posting in all forums. That would give you more opportunities to speak with others who believe as you do.
