Proving the Trinity

The armchair theologian and cult researcher alike will salivate over this meaty entree from E. Calvin Beisner. With his work "God in Three Persons" Beisner delivers a robust and needed theological meal to fill the believer with enough truth to be able to share with unbelievers and cultists. "The word Trinity doesn't appear in the Bible-yet Christians for centuries have held that it is a Biblical truth, foundational to orthodoxy. But very few understand how the doctrine came to be. Beisner traces the formulation of the doctrine and all the controversies that arose among the early Christians who strove to find acceptable language to correctly state this important doctrine" (back of the book). This is one of the best short popular works on the Trinity. Chapters include: - The Trinity in the New Testament - The Trinity in the Ante-Nicene Fathers - The Arian Controversy - The Nicene Creed and the New Testament Doctrine of the Trinity. Josh McDowell endorses this book and states that it has the "most thorough documentation I have seen" on this subject. Fascinating History, great precision, compelling presentation.
