But I think that we people that think we are sooooo smart and got things figured out do the work for him. We confuse each other. You know what though if God did not want us to see Himself as more than just Jesus then why does he have different manifestation? Burning bush, etc.

The Shemah is straight. Trinitarians do not serve different gods. They serve one as do I. To a Jew God has different manifestations too. Does that mean that a Jew is wrong for that belief?

No it is not. That is a crazy statement. Trinitarians may see the Godhead wrong, but they are not being led astray by anything other than a misunderstanging pastor or teacher.

The devil wants us in sin. If he can steer us off track to get there that is what he wants. But to say it is damnable is childish. How can they hear with out a preacher. Is there room for revelation? Yes! Then let that room exist. You and others are writting these people off as if they have stamped their ticket to hell.

In the BOLD statement above....
The devil wants the attention we give to God. The devil tries to take our affection and turn it toward him. Believing in the trinity does not turn anyone toward the devil. In human nature there is always a desire to know God more. We always want to go deeper in knowledge of Him. But when people say things like you and others are saying it only separates us from God. The reason is people stand there with a God stick beating everyone up.

I respect you alot PP, but I think that you are wrong here. IMO
Perhaps we just disagree as to the importance of knowing who and what God is? While there are many things about God that are unexplainable, I don't think His person is one of them.

The trinity is damnable because it reduces Jesus to a subordinant figure.
