It is a common attack on the Bible that the word “Trinity” is not found anywhere. True enough. But the truth of the Three-in-One God can be found often in Scripture. Here are a few verses from the New Testament that link, in a sentence or two, the three Members of the Godhead. Notice that in many of them not only are the Members of the Godhead mentioned, but the distinctive functions of each Member is described. Some good examples would be Rom 15:16; 15:30; 1 Cor 2:7-10; 1 Cor 6:10-11; 1 Cor 12:3-6; 2 Cor 1:21-22; 2 Cor 13:14; Eph 3:14-19; Eph 5:18-20; 1 Thess 4:2-5; Heb 9:14; 1 Pet 1:2; 1 Pet 3:18; and 1 Jn 4:2. Another thrilling passage that links the Trinity in one sentence reads: “But you, beloved, building yourselves up on your most holy faith, praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life” (Jude 20-21). May today find us building, praying, keeping, and looking!
