For the discussion, I'd like to offer two Scriptures which attest the Trinity to me:
But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. Romans 8:9 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6
God's Name is I AM.

Thanks for posting those.
I believe this verse is among the most definitive:
Going therefore, teach ye all nations; baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost. (Matthew 28:19)
Any translation of Scripture, Catholic or Protestant, uses the singulare NAME rather than names. It is quite clear that it is Three Persons in ONE GOD.

Also a nice verse for refuting those disbelievers who deny that Christ is God come in the flesh, ie, Jesus is not God, "God is not a man"
Who shall be called The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6

That is a marvellous excerpt. It instantly points out that there is the Spirit, God the Father and God the Son (Christ) and that they are all one. Thank you!
