Tritheism is a polytheistic view of God. It is taught
by the Mormon church. According to Mormonism
the Trinity of the bible are three distinct Gods.
Mormonism also
teaches there could be
millions of Gods, each with
their own universe and
plan of salvation.
False Doctrine
God is three
manifestations:
Father in creation;
the Son in redemption;
the Holy Spirit in
regeneration

One God – Three Manifestations
UPCI - We must take three steps to
obtain salvation.
(1)
have faith and repentance;
(2)
be baptized with water emersion in the name of
Jesus only (because Jesus Is the name of God
Father, Son, and Holy Ghost - and Matthew
28:19 tells us to baptize in the name (singular)
of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost)
(3)
receive the Holy Spirit, which is evidenced by
speaking in tongues
Oneness groups teach dogmatically
that people who believe in the
“Trinity” are hell bound.
"Sincere profession based on a faulty concept of
Christ is not enough; one must believe and obey the
gospel. . . . Where does this leave those who have a
certain degree of faith in Christ but have not obeyed
the full gospel?. . . such people are pre-Pentecost
believers, not part of the apostolic church. . . they
need to be led to further truth. . . they are in the
conception stage and have not yet had the new
birth" (The New Birth: Series in Pentecostal
Theology, vol. 2, pp. 313-14).
No Assurance In Apostolic Oneness,
Only A Continual Striving For
Holiness That One May Be Worthy Of
Heaven
"Holiness is esential to salvation. Hebrews 12:14 is
just as strong, as true, and as relevant to salvation
as the words, 'You must be born again.' . . .After the
new birth experience, a conflict arises . . . This battle
is a battle for holiness, and we must win it in order
to be saved" (In Search of Holiness: Series in
Pentecostal Theology, vol. 3, p. 11).
". . . remember that a bad attitude will keep you out of heaven
just as surely as any violation of outward holiness"
(Ibid., p. 62).
The
Biblical
Trinity
One God In
Three persons
Each co-equal
and co-eternal
The Trinity
The Father Is
God
Jesus Is God
The Father Is
Not Jesus Or
The Spirit
Jesus Is Not
The Father
Or The Spirit
The Holy Spirit
Is God
The Spirit Is
Not Jesus Or
The Father
Three Persons In One God
Why Is The Trinity Important?
It Reveals The True Nature Of God
It Determines The Uniqueness Of:
The Father - The Son - The Holy Spirit
It Determines Correct Worship
God must be known and
worshipped as He is, not just as
we suppose Him to be
It Validates The Power Of Christ’s
Sacrifice
The Biblical View Of The
Trinity
The Trinity Is Biblically Describable,
But Finitely Unfathomable
The Trinity Is One God
There Is No Other God Other Than
The Trinity
The Oneness Of God
The Shema
‫ ׁשמע יׂשראל יהוה אלהינו יהוה אחד׃‬Deu 6:4
Deu 6:4 "Hear, O Israel!
Yahweh/Jehovah is our Elohim,
Yahweh/Jehovah is one ( Achad)!
The Plurality Of The One God
Elohim is a plural noun.
Exo 20:3 You shall have no other
gods (Elohim) before Me.
1Sa 4:7 And the Philistines were afraid,
for they said, God (Elohim) is come into
the camp. And they said, Woe unto us! for
there hath not been such a thing
heretofore. 8 Woe unto us! who shall
deliver us out of the hand of these mighty
Gods (Elohim)? these are the Gods
(Elohim) that smote the Egyptians with all
the plagues in the wilderness.
• God refers to Himself 4X In
The Plural
1x - Gen 1:26 And God (Elohim) said, Let
Us make man in Our image, after Our
likeness.
The oneness of God (Elohim) is found
in the use of singular Hebrew
pronouns
Gen 1:27 And God created man in His
image; in the image of God He created
him. He created them male and female.
“Our image” in Gen. 1:26 can’t mean
God is including the angels
1Co 11:7 For a man indeed ought not to
have his head covered, because he is the
image and glory of God. But the woman is
the glory of the man.
2x - Gen 3:22 And Yahweh/Jehovah God
(Elohim) said, Behold, the man has become as
one of Us, to know good and evil. And now, lest
he put forth his hand and take also of the tree of
life, and eat, and live forever,
3x - Gen 11:6 And Yahweh/Jehovah said,
Behold! The people are one and they all
have one language. And this they begin to
do. And now nothing which they have
imagined to do will be restrained from
them. 7 Come, let Us go down and there
confuse their language, so that they cannot
understand one another's speech.
4x - Isa 6:8 And I heard the voice of the
Yahweh/Jehovah, saying, Whom shall I
send, and who will go for us? Then I said,
Here am I; send me!
• Plurality And Distinction Is
Seen In God Speaking To God
Psa 45:6 Your throne, O God (Elohim), is
forever and ever; the staff of Your
kingdom is a staff of righteousness. 7 You
love righteousness, and hate wickedness;
therefore God (Elohim), Your God
(Elohim) , has anointed You with the oil of
gladness above Your fellows.
New Testament Application To Jesus
Heb 1:7 And of the angels He says, "Who
makes His angels spirits and His ministers
a flame of fire." 8 But to the Son He says,
"Your throne, O God, is forever and ever.
A scepter of righteousness is the scepter of
Your kingdom. 9 You have loved
righteousness and hated iniquity,
therefore God, Your God, has anointed
You with the oil of gladness above Your
fellows."
Psa 102:24 I said, O my God (Elohim)
, take me not away in the midst of my days;
Your years are through the generation of
generations. 25 Of old You have laid the
foundation of the earth; and the heavens
are the work of Your hands. 26 They shall
perish, but You shall endure; yea, all of
them shall become old like a garment; like
a robe You shall change them, and they
shall be changed; 27 but You are He, and
Your years shall have no end.
New Testament Application To Jesus
God speaks to His Son - Ps. 102:24
Heb 1:10 And, "You, Lord (Jesus), have
laid the foundation of the earth in the
beginning, and the heavens are the works
of Your hands. 11 They shall perish, but
You will remain. And they shall all become
old as a garment, 12 and as a covering You
shall fold them up, and they shall be
changed. But You are the same, and Your
years shall not fail."
• The
Holiness Of
God Is
Echoed In
Trinitarian
Praise
Isa 6:3 And one cried to another, and said,
Holy, holy, holy, is Jehovah of Hosts; the
whole earth full of His glory.
Rev 4:8 And each one of the four living
creatures had six wings about him, and within
being full of eyes. And they had no rest day and
night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God, the
Almighty, who was and is and is to come.
• Each Member Of The Trinity
Is Called God
The Father Is Called God
Joh 6:27 Do not labor for the food that
perishes, but for that food which endures
to everlasting life, which the Son of Man
will give you. For God the Father sealed
Him.
The Son Is Called God By God
The Father
Heb. 1:8 But to the Son He says, "Your
throne, O God, is forever and ever. 9 You
have loved righteousness and hated
iniquity, therefore God, Your God,
has anointed You with the oil of gladness
above Your fellows."
The Son Is Called God By
Isaiah
Isa 9:6 For to us a Child is born, to us
a Son is given; and the government
shall be on His shoulder; and His
name shall be called Wonderful,
Counselor, The mighty God, The
Father of eternity, The Prince of
Peace.
Jesus Is Called God By The
Apostles
Joh 1:1 In the beginning was the
Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God… Joh 1:14
And the Word was made flesh, and
dwelt among us
Jesus Is Called God By The
Apostles
By Thomas - Joh 20:28 And Thomas
answered and said to Him, My Lord
and my God!
Jesus Is Called God By The
Apostles
By Paul - Tit 2:13 looking for the
blessed hope, and the appearance of
the glory of our great God and Savior
Jesus Christ.
Rom 9:3 For I myself was wishing to be
accursed from Christ for my brothers, my
kinsmen according to the flesh, 4 who are
Israelites; to whom belong the adoption,
and the glory, and the covenants, and the
giving of the Law, and the service of God,
and the promises; 5 whose are the fathers,
and of whom is the Christ according to
flesh, He
being God over all, blessed
forever. Amen.
Jesus Calls Himself God
Rev 1:8 I am the Alpha
and Omega, the
Beginning and the
Ending, says the Lord,
who is and who was
and who is to come, the
Almighty.
Rev 1:12 And I turned to
see the voice that spoke
with me.
Rev 1:17 And when I saw
Him, I fell at His feet as
dead. And He laid His
right hand upon me,
saying to me, Do not fear, I
am the First and the Last
18 and the Living One,
and I became dead, and
behold, I am alive for ever
and ever, Amen. And I
have the keys of hell and of
death.
The Holy Spirit Is Called God
Act 5:3 But Peter said, "Ananias, why has
Satan filled your heart to lie to the Holy
Spirit and to keep back some of the price
of the land?
4 "While it remained unsold, did it not
remain your own? And after it was sold,
was it not under your control? Why is it
that you have conceived this deed in your
heart? You have not lied to men but to
God.

Salvation Depends On A Right
View Of The Trinity
2Co 11:4 For if, indeed, the one coming
proclaims another Jesus, whom we have
not proclaimed, or if you receive another
spirit, which you did not receive, or
another gospel, which you never
accepted…
2Co 11:13 For such ones are false apostles,
deceitful workers, transforming themselves into
the apostles of Christ. 14 Did not even Satan
marvelously transform himself into an angel of
light? 15 Therefore it is no great thing if his
ministers also transform themselves as
ministers of righteousness, whose end shall be
according to their works.
There Is No
Savior But The
True God
Isa 43:10 "You are My witnesses," declares the
LORD, "And My servant whom I have chosen, So
that you may know and believe Me And
understand that I am He. Before Me there was
no God formed, And there will be none after Me.
Isa 43:11 "I, even I, am Yahweh, And
there is no savior besides Me.

And Died For Our Sins As Our
Savior
Act 16:31 And they said, Believe on the Lord
Jesus Christ and you shall be saved, and your
household.
Exo 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I
AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the
children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
Joh 8:23 And He (Jesus) said to them, You are
from beneath; I am from above. You are of this
world; I am not of this world. 24 Therefore I
said to you that you shall die in your sins,
for if you do not believe that I AM, you shall
die in your sins.
Joh 1:1 In the
beginning was the
Word, and the
Word was with God,
and the Word was
God.

of God.
