Argument supporting god...?
In Scripture there is as yet no single term by which the Three Divine Persons are denoted together. The word trias (of which the Latin trinitas is a translation) is first found in Theophilus of Antioch about A.D. 180. He speaks of "the Trinity of God [the Father], His Word and His Wisdom ("Ad.

I don't remember the question asked but the teacher replied with this logic. Teacher - Look at that flower, where did it come from? Me - Umm a seed. T - Where did that seed come from? Me - the dirt.
