DID YOU KNOW THERE WAS NO OFFICIAL DOCTRINE OF THE TRINITY UNTIL 300 YEARS AFTER CHRIST?
Catholic image of the Trinity.
In 325, the First Council of Nicaea established the doctrine of the Trinity as orthodoxy and adopted the Nicene Creed that described Christ as "God of God, Light of Light, very God of very God, begotten, not made, being of one substance (homoousios) with the Father." Trinity.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
ONE GOD.
Christianity, having emerged from Judaism, is a monotheistic religion. Never in the New Testament does the Trinitarian concept become a "tritheism" (three Gods) nor even two. God is one, and that God is a single being is strongly declared in the Bible:
The Shema of the Hebrew Scriptures: "Hear, O Israel: the LORD our God, the LORD is one."[Deut 6:4]
The first of the Ten Commandments—"Thou shalt have no other gods before me."[5:7]
And "Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel and his redeemer the LORD of hosts: I am the first and I am the last; and beside me there is no God."[Isa 44:6]
In the New Testament: "The LORD our God is one."[Mk 12:29]
Scripture contains neither the word Trinity, nor an expressly formulated doctrine of the Trinity. Rather, according to the Christian theology, it “bears witness to” the activity of: THE GOD.
Today MOST of Christianity worship God in the form of the Trinity, Thus, in the words of the Athanasian Creed: "the Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, and yet there are not three Gods but one God."
The Shield of the Trinity or Scutum Fidei (Latin for "shield of faith") is a traditional Christian visual symbol which expresses many aspects of the doctrine of the Trinity, summarizing the first part of the Athanasian Creed in a compact diagram. In late medieval Europe, this emblem was considered to be the heraldic arms of God (and of the Trinity).

Question?
WHY do MOST of Christianity worship God in the form of the Trinity today,
because the early church in the first 300 year's did not believe in the Trinity, and was not official to believe until 300 years after Christ, which must prove GOD, Jesus and the whole Bible did not teach the trinity.

No one clearly and fully asserted the doctrine of the Trinity until around the end of the so-called Arian Controversy.
