| | Trinity - God, Father, Son, Holy Spirit - Trinitarian, Tritheism, Triadic - Three Persons - Godhead |
 | | While the term trinity does not appear in Scripture, the trinitarian structure appears throughout the New Testament to affirm that God Himself is manifested through Jesus Christ by means of the Spirit. | | | This passage is the clearest scriptural reference to a systematic presentation of the doctrine of the Trinity. | | | The fourth category of trinitarian passages includes those presented in the farewell discourse of Jesus to His disciples (John 14:16; 15:26; 16:13-15). |

| | FOR THE TELEVISED DISCUSSION ON TRINITARIAN THEOLOGY |
| | Regarding Buddhism: again, many Christian scholars find "hints of the trinity" in its teachings: e.g., the formula of the triratna, the teaching of the "three bodies" of Buddha, the theory of the "three ages" of salvation in Mahayana Buddhism, and some Buddhist psychological triads (three principles) in Buddhist spirituality. | | | Thus the primary concern of Asian theologians in the realm of trinitarian doctrine and theology would be to proclaim this central mystery of our faith within our Asian context, so deeply marked as it is by the great religious traditions of the East: Buddhism, Islam, Hinduism. | | | In Islam we encounter a wholly unconditional "yes" to the one and only God who is Allah, an absolute and militant "no" to the Christian Trinity. |

| | Questions On Baptism |
| | We know from early Church writings that the Trinitarian formula was used from most ancient times, and the doctrine was accepted as the correct interpretation of scripture by the world-wide Church at several Ecumneical Councils. | | | Catholics believe that all people who have received water baptism in the Trinitarian formula are mysteriously united to the Church, and indwelt with the grace of Jesus Christ. | | | Thus, Catholics believe that the Trinitarian formula is revealed through Scripture and Sacred Tradition to be a if not the correct way to do baptism. |

| | Trinitarian formula - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The trinitarian formula is the phrase "in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit", or words to that form and effect referring to the persons of the Holy Trinity. | | | These words are quoted in literal conformity to a command of Jesus according to the Bible, commonly called the great commission of Matthew 28:19: " Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in [or into] the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit." | | | From the late twentieth century onwards, many Christians have become uncomfortable with the traditionally male representation of God and have sought to de-emphasise or eliminate altogether gender-specific references to God. |

| | The Doctrinal Exclusion: Trinity and the Nature of God |
| | Since both LDS Christians and orthodox Christians affirm the doctrines of the incarnation and bodily resurrection of God the Son, then in the person of the Son, God must be understood to have a tangible body. | | | The formula allowed orthodoxy to affirm with the New Testament that Christ suffered while agreeing with Plato that God is impassible. | | | Most modern Christians are unaware of the doctrine at all and naively talk about a God who suffers, but those who are conversant with the fine points of orthodoxy know that according to the fourth- and fifth-century church fathers, the divine nature within Christ could not and did not suffer for us or anyone else. |

| | On the other hand, since by AD 150 other Catholics were using texts of Matthew which possessed the trinitarian formula (as we saw, for instance, from The Didache), it clearly had been added very early in the second century, though it was probably not in the original autograph of the first gospel. | | | What is particularly interesting about this formula, however, is that as late as the beginning of the fourth century, the first historian of Catholic Christianity and the most learned Christian of his day, Bishop Eusebius of Caesarea, most frequently quoted Matthew 28:19 without the trinitarian formula. | | | A significant fact about this trinitarian summary is that it does not begin with God but rather with the Lord Jesus Christ, putting God in the second place. |
