One composed of two divine personages.


What year did this false teaching emerge on the world scene? Is this Ellen G White?

The Holy Spirit is a person according to the Bible, you can’t lie to a force or power.
And Acts 5 declares the Holy Spirit to be God, there is no way around it.

The Trinity was believed from the Apostolic time, only when Arius attacked the doctrine in the early 4th century was it defended officially.

To: one Lord one faith one baptism
What year did this false teaching emerge on the world scene?

Before time began:

Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Joh 1:2 He was in the beginning with God.
Joh 1:3 All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made.

The Holy Spirit is a person according to the Bible, you can’t lie to a force or power.

A "person" who never appears in the Godhead in scripture. A person who never appears on a throne. The holy spirit also can be poured out. Can be quenched. Can be drank. Is a gift. But nowhere does scripture state that holy spirit is a member of the Godhead. Again, it's a historical fact that his wasn't officially "decided" until over 300 years after the death of Christ.
