"The Trinity [doctrine] tries to combine a set of verses into a framework the Bible never actually states. Scripture clearly teaches that the Father alone is the one true God (John 17:3; 1 Corinthians 8:6), while Jesus is His Son, sent by Him, dependent on Him, and subject to Him (John 5:19, 30; 14:28). Verses that call Christ “God” can be understood in an exalted or representative sense, just as others are called “gods” in Scripture (John 10:34-36), without making Him the same God as the Father. The Holy Spirit is consistently described as God’s power and presence, not a separate co-equal person. And simply listing the Father, Son, and Spirit together doesn’t prove a triune being. The consistent Biblical pattern is one supreme God, [Yahweh], working through His Son and by His Spirit, not a Trinity."
