In this conclusion to our two part series on words that are not found in the text of Scripture, we tackle one of the most critical issues of doctrine: the very nature of God. Is the idea of a triune God actually found in the Bible? If not, where did we get that idea in the first place? Do people who don't believe that even have the right to be called Christians?
