The Trinity Conundrum

Contributed by Dennis Lee on Feb 19, 2021

The doctrine of the Trinity has caused the most confusion as far back as the first century with many not being unable to, or not wanting to, fathom its reality, thus dismissing Christianity. Using the Bible as our text, we examine this vital doctrine.

Desire Determines Destiny Series
