153: Bowman, Robert M.: Why You Should Believe In The Trinity
"The New Testament does not contain a formalized explanation of the trinity that uses such words as trinity, three persons, one substance, and the like." (Why You Should Believe In The Trinity, 1989, Robert M. Bowman Jr.) What they fail to tell the same book also says: That Bowman plainly says that the scriptures teach the deity of Christ and the personality of the Holy Spirit. That Bowman is contrasting the undeveloped trinitarian beliefs of the apostles, (who believed in the deity of Christ but had not yet come to grips with the impact on the oneness of God issue) with the developed creedal explanations in Nicea 300 years later. Our comment Just because the Bible fails to "fully develop" trinity doctrine to the same extent as the Nicene fathers, doesn't ... things to God".

162: Trinity: Arius and the Nicene Creed
"Arius, Waldo, John Wycliffe, and Martin Luther were part of God's organization." (Watchtower, May 15, 1925, p. 149) Arianism did not exist before the 4th century, but was a development of doctrine, just like Creedal Trinity Arianism, a Christian heresy first proposed early in the 4th century by the Alexandrian presbyter Arius. It affirmed that Christ is not truly divine ... He taught that the Logos or Reason of God dwelt in the man Jesus. This Logos had also been in Moses and in the prophets; in Jesus, however, it was present in much larger measure. As a result, he was united with God in a relationship of love as no other man had been. Therefore, God "adopted" Jesus after his crucifixion and resurrection and gave him a sort of deity.

164: Subordination within the Godhead: Roles and Ranks
They just blindly deny the many clear Bible passages and adopt the "Athanasian Creed" which says, "So likewise the Father is almighty, the Son almighty, and the Holy Spirit almighty. ... And in this Trinity ... none is greater or less than another. But the whole three persons are ... coequal." While the vast majority of the "Athanasian Creed" is much closer to the Bible truth than the Arian view of Christ. Arian's, however, focus on this one small error in an effort to trash the whole of trinity Doctrine. Interestingly, both Roman Catholics and Jehovah's Witnesses are guilty of the same error: Namely, they both believe that if Christ is subordinate to the Father, that he is less than God. So JW's emphasize the subordination of Christ in an effort to prove he is a creature and RC's empasize the deity of Christ and deny the subordination of Christ. Both groups are wrong.
