152: Biblical Trinity is not borrowed from the pagans!
Click to View Reputable scholars, secular encyclopedias and Trinitarians never say trinity is of pagan origin and openly deny such. First, it is important to note that the doctrine of the Trinity does not go back to non-Christian sources [pagan], as has sometimes been supposed in the past. [ie. by Jehovah's Witnesses etc.] There has been no lack of attempts to find the initial form of the doctrine of the Trinity in Plato, or in Hinduism, or in Parsiism. All such attempts may be regarded today as having floundered. [but Jehovah's Witnesses continue to ... In this area final clarity has not yet been achieved. As far as the New Testament is concerned, one does not find in it an actual doctrine of the Trinity. This does not mean very much, however, for generally speaking the New Testament is less intent upon setting forth certain doctrines than it is upon proclaiming the kingdom of God, a kingdom that dawns in and with the person of Jesus Christ. At the same time, however, there are in the ... ...

What the verse is saying: Three different things are given to Christians by three different persons of the Godhead. This verse is so powerful in proving the Holy Spirit is a person, that anti-Trinitarians are at a loss what to do with it!

So anti-Trinitarians must admit that our interpretation, although they think it wrong, is possible and a natural interpretation based upon other verses like Gal 2:9 and 1 Cor 1:9.

Godhead Subordination of Christ proven from the Bible Biblical subordination Jesus Christ is the creator, not a creature and will always be equal to the Father in this sense.
