N S B Notes: TRINITY
TRINITY
In the Beginning Man Created God!
And one was not enough.
So he created three,
And called them Holy Trinity.
RELIGIOUS TRIADS EXISTED FOR CENTURIES IN BABYLON: Many centuries before the
time of Christ, back at the very beginning of civilization, there were
trinities of gods in ancient Babylonia and Assyria. It was common in the
ancient world to group pagan gods in threes or triads.
A Dictionary of Religious Knowledge calls our attention to an important fact
about the Trinity Doctrine. It says that the Trinity “is a corruption borrowed
from the heathen religions, and ingrafted on the
Christian faith.” The more you research the history of mankind the more
apparent it becomes that the Christian teaching of the Trinity is entirely
pagan.
THE HOLY SCRIPTURES: Look at the teachings of the prophets found in the Hebrew
Scriptures. Do they even once speak of a Trinity as the “central doctrine” of
faith? No! They always speak about one God, who demands exclusive devotion.
Search the teachings of Jesus Christ and his apostles in the Christian Greek
Scriptures and see for yourself that they emphatically preached One God, and
father of us all! It is obvious, man created the Trinity!
MONOTHEISTIC: Belief that there is only one true God. The Holy Scriptures
present Jehovah God as the one and only God. (John 4:23) (1 Corinthians 8:5-6)
He requires exclusive devotion. (Nahum 1:2) (Exodus 20:2-5) (John 14:28)
(Matthew 22:36-38) The Bible specifically states that the true God was and is
the Father of Jesus Christ. (1 Corinthians 8:4-6) The theory of “three gods in
one” does not respect Jehovah God’s requirement for exclusive devotion stated
at Deuteronomy 4:24, and it is not found in the Bible.
There is only one true God, not three! The word monotheistic is also not found
in the Holy Scriptures, but the concept is present throughout the context of
the Bible.
Read Deuteronomy 4:35, “To you it is shown that you might know that the LORD,
He is God; there is no other besides Him.” NASB. Also
read Deuteronomy
TRINITY DOCTRINE, A ROMAN CATHOLIC CREATION: The Trinity Doctrine was
officially adopted by the Roman Catholic Church nearly 300 years after Christ!
The apostles had completed the writing of the Christian Greek Scriptures 250
years before the Catholic Church approved of the Trinity Doctrine. The Catholic
Encylopedia will verify that fact.
It was a gradual process that took many years and much debate but in the year
325 C.E. the Creed of the Council of Nicaea was
approved and the teaching of the Trinity became formalized in the church. Arius, a priest in
The Council of Constantinople also approved the teaching of the Trinity in 381
C.E. Previous to this in the year 200 C.E. Tertullian
quoted the old Roman Creed which was completely devoid of any reference to the
Trinity. The New Simplified Bible features the true monotheistic God, one God,
not three in one!
TRADITIONS OF MEN, False Doctrine: The Jewish leaders were following the
commands of men as doctrines. (Matthew 15:9) Jesus said that by their tradition
they made God’s Word invalid, overstepping the commands of God. (Matthew
15:3-6) Neither Jesus nor the writers of the Christian Greek Scriptures ever
spoke anything that was not absolutely found in the Holy Scriptures. (2 Timothy
3:16, 17)
Jesus Christ and the first century Christian leaders never gave permission to
add new doctrine and traditions to the teachings of the Holy Scriptures.
Christian leaders of the third, fourth and fifth centuries added a large number
of new doctrine and traditions to the church. (1 Timothy
1:3; 6:3-5) This is especially true of the Roman Catholic Church. However, most
of the church organizations that broke away from the Catholic Church retained
these questionable doctrines and added their own. This apostate practice has
been going on since the first century.
CHURCH LEADERS CLAIM DIVINE AUTHORITY TO TEACH TRINITY: Church leaders proclaim
that God has given them divine authority to write new teachings and traditions.
It is not uncommon for a religious leader to claim that God speaks to him
directly. In spite of the fact that interpretation belongs to God, church
leaders continue to make up their own doctrines. (2 Peter 1:20) (Genesis 40:8)
(Revelation 22:9)
TRINITARIAN CONSPIRACY: A conspiracy is a plot to carry out some harmful or
illegal act. The act of teaching millions of church members
that Jesus Christ is one and the same spirit person as Jehovah God is an
organized conspiracy. It is a deliberate attempt to persuade people that
God’s Word does not state that “the LORD, He is God; there is no other besides
Him.” (Deuteronomy
TRINITY NOT FOUND IN THE BIBLE: This word is not found in the Holy Scriptures.
In fact the entire context of the Bible does not support a mysterious
three-persons-in-one spirit being. Jesus instructions at Matthew 28:18-20
identify three spirit entities, but do not say they are three in one. Paul’s
salutation at 2 Corinthians 13:14 identify the three separate spirit entities,
but do not say they belong to a trinity. God does not share his name or glory
with anyone. (Isaiah 42:8, 44:6; 48:11) The unity emphasized at Ephesians 4:3-6
proves He is a monotheistic God, one God and Father of all. (SEE N S B Notes:
HOLY SPIRIT, “WHO” OR “WHAT?”)
NEW SIMPLIFIED BIBLE, THE OTHER NON-TRINITARIAN BIBLE: Of the nearly 350
complete “New Testaments” and 102 complete translations of the entire “Old and
New Testaments” translated into English since 1450 Common Era, more than 95
percent have been “Trinitarian Biased.” The New Simplified Bible is Not
Trinitarian Biased! John 1:1, 18;
JESUS CHRIST: Hebrew: Jehoshua, meaning Jehovah Is
Salvation. Jesus Christ is the name and title of the Son of God. He is the only
begotten Son. Jesus paid the ransom sacrifice for mankind. (Matthew 20:28) (1 Timothy 2:6) (1 John 2:1, 2) He is referred to as the
Word of God. He is now at the right hand of God. (Acts
John 1:1 is translated using the same words in nearly every translation. This
translation is different! If you believe Jesus is God the wording here should
not disturb your beliefs, for he was and is like his Father. If you accept
God’s own statement that Jesus is the Son of God the rendering in The New
Simplified Bible will fit your theology. The following is the way you will find
it in this translation along with related notes: (John 1:1) “In the beginning
was the Word, and the Word was with God, and Word was like God.”
(Strong’s Bible Dictionary: Theos: God, a god,
magistrate, deity, godly or God-like) (Family relationship, son with father)
(Logos en pros Theos; Jesus Christ the Word was with
{pros} God) Transliteration: In the beginning was Jesus Christ the Son of God,
and Jesus Christ the Son of God was with God, and Jesus Christ the Son of God
was like his Father, God. Another way to state this: “The Word was in the
beginning, and the Word was with God, and the Word was like God. This is a
family relationship, son with father. “Logos en pros Theos.” Jesus Christ the Word (Logos) was with (pros)
God. And Jesus Christ was like, his Father, God (Theo's). (1 Corinthians 11:3;
15:27, 28) (John 1:18) (Philippians 2:6) (Acts
If God was a Trinity, Jesus would also be “like God.” Since God is not a
Trinity, it is even more important to convey the fact that he is still like his
Father and his God. (John 20:17) (Revelation 3:12) After all, being second only
to God in the universe is very close to being a deity. At this very moment
Jesus is at the right hand of the Almighty God, Jehovah. (Acts
*******************************************************
Non-Trinitarian Bible Translations
COMPARE John 1:1: Approximately four hundred English translations of the
Christian Greek Holy Scriptures have been written over the past five hundred
years. Of this total, only eight have rendered John 1:1 with wording that is
different then the usual Trinitarian statement: “the Word was God”. They are as
follows:
1867 Inspired Version also called Joseph Smith Translation: “the Son was of
God.”
1922 Moffatt New Translation: “the Word was divine.”
1931 American Translation (Smith-Goodspeed): “the
Word was divine.”
1942 Emphatic Diaglott: “a god was the Word.”
1958 Authentic New Testament: “the Word was divine.”
1961 New World Translation: “the Word was a god.”
1885 Original New Testament: “so the Word was divine.”
2003 New Simplified Bible: “the Word was like God.”
One might conclude that Jesus Christ, the Word, was part of a trinity while
reading that “the Word was divine”. So we could eliminate these translations.
And the Joseph Smith Translation is highly questionable at best. So let’s
eliminate it too! The Emphatic Diaglott is an
Interlinear Greek-to-English publication with very awkward English.
COMPARE John 14:10: Now let’s compare how John
1769 Authorized Version of KJV: “I am in the Father.”
1902 Rotherham Bible: “I am in the Father.”
1933 George M Lamsa Translation: “I am with the
Father.”
1961 New World Translation: “I am in union with the Father.”
1989 New Revised Standard Version: “I am in the Father.”
1995 New American Standard Bible: “I am in the Father.”
2000 New International Version: “I am in the Father.”
2003 New Simplified Bible: “I am with the Father.”
Nearly all English Bible translations use the phrase “I am in the Father” at
John
COMPARE John 8:58: Take a closer look at John 8:58. Most Bible translations use
the deliberate Trinitarian phrase, “Before Abraham was,
I am.” This is Jesus Christ the Son of God speaking. They want you to think
that phrase “I am” means God. But does it? Or does it simply mean “I exist
(existed).” The word they translated “am” is from the Greek “eimi.” It has several meanings including: am, exist, and
was. Notice how the the translations compare:
1611 King James Version: “I am”
1901 American Standard Version: “I am”
1933 George M Lamsa Translation: “I was”
1961 New World Translation: “I have been”
1989 New Revised Standard Version: “I am”
1995 New American Standard Bible: “I am”
2ooo New International Version: “I am”
2003 New Simplified Bible: “I existed before Abraham was born”
Again we find the same three translations that champion the true God of the Bible,
a Monotheistic Deity. They are the New World Translation, George M Lamsa Translation, and the New Simplified Bible.
COMPARE Exodus 3:14: This is where the devious conspiracy begins! The
Trinitarian translators mislead the unsuspecting Bible student at the very begininng of the the Holy
Scriptures. The Hebrew word that they translate “I AM WHO I AM” is “hayah.” It can be translated “am”, “have been”, “will
become”, “exist”, remain”, “will be”. Look at these
translation comparisons:
1611 King James Version: “I AM THAT I AM”
1901 American Standard Version: “I AM THAT I AM”
1933 George M Lamsa Translation: “I am AHIAH ASHAR
HIGH, (that is, THE LIVING GOD)
1961 New World Translation: “I SHALL PROVE TO BE WHAT I SHALL PROVE TO BE”
2003 New Simplified Bible: “[I exist and] I WILL BE WHO I WILL BE.”
