The doctrine of the Trinity allows for a distinction between the persons of Father, Son, and Spirit...while affirming that they are the very same God from all eternity.

OK Here are the erroneous notions about God, I think you missed one
-That Jesus was just a man (Ebionitism). Wrong
-That Jesus is a separate lesser being (Arianism). Wrong
-That Jesus is a temporary manifestation (Modalism). Wrong
-That Jesus is a second person of the Godhead (Triniteniarism) Wrong
The reason that these doctrines are wrong,
Obviously Jesus was more than a man
Jesus said that he and the father were one
Jesus was not a temporary manifestation
Jesus is not a person of the trinity.
