The word "Trinity" is not in the Bible
The English word "Trinity" does not appear in the Bible, though passages such as Matthew 28:19 name the Father, Son and Holy Spirit together. Matthew 28:19
Discover why
Jesus told his disciples to baptize "in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit". At Jesus' baptism the Spirit descends and the Father speaks. Matthew 28:19Mark 1:10–11
"Trinity" is a term Christians later used to summarise their teaching about God from such passages. 2 Corinthians 13:14
