From now on, every time you hear a preacher or teacher mention or expound on ‘the trinity’, stop and honestly ask yourself this question:
“What did those words actually do for my faith and my relationship with God?”

Some followup questions:
+”Is it not perhaps true that ‘trinity’, and all the language that goes with it, does more for the theologian than the layman?”
+”Just exactly where did those comments come from?—from the Bible?”
+”Did the comments match Bible words, and make them more clear?”
+Ask the speaker, “Would you explain what you just said about ‘the trinity’?” (Then ask the above questions again, after the response.)
+”Have we ‘always done it (said it) this way’—really?—or maybe not, like not in the Bible?”
+”Have we gotten so ‘used to’ the ‘trinity’ wording that nobody ever questions it?”
+”What happens if anyone does question the universal use of ‘the trinity’?”

Danger—church teaching can become more sacred than Scripture.
