One God; Father, Son & Holy SpiritThe chart below demonstrates how the doctrine of the Trinity is derived from Scripture. This is not a complete list, but will provide good research passages. The first step is to establish how many Gods exist: one! Isaiah 43:10; 44:6; 45:14,18, 21, 22; 46:5,9. "I am the LORD, and there is no other; besides Me there is no God, Isaiah 45:5. The Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost: three, however, not in condition, but in degree; not in substance, but in form; not in power, but in aspect; yet of one substance, and of one condition, and of one power, inasmuch as He is one God, from whom these degrees and forms and aspects are reckoned, under the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. The Father is God, the Son is God, the Holy Spirit is God, yet there are not three Gods, but one God. 2 Peter 2:1 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought them- bringing swift destruction on themselves.
