Christians don't really believe God is a trinity

[Avoice]

Most Christians believe in the trinity.
From their mouth out they believe it. But deep down they don't believe it at all. BECAUSE THEY DON'T ACT LIKE IT.
Do all three heads receive the same attention?

FATHER, SON AND HOLY SPIRIT. THAT'S THEIR THREE HEADS THEY PUT ON GOD. BUT THE FACT IS THEY ONLY WORSHIP JESUS. EVERYTHING IS ABOUT JESUS. JESUS, JESUS, JESUS. THEIR HOLIDAYS? ABOUT JESUS. THEIR PRAYERS? THEY GO TO JESUS. WHO DO THEY CALL THEIR LORD? JESUS.

The Trinity serves one purpose. It allows Christians to worship a man and not see it as paganism. As long as they think and believe that the god of Israel is somehow a part of it it prevents them from seeing what it really is.

Christianity could not survive if it's followers didn't believe the god of the Hebrew scriptures wasn't a part of it. They could never worship Jesus just by himself because then it would be paganism.

The god of Israel is in bright lights on the Marquee of the theater. But when you get inside there's no sign of him. That's the way it is with Christianity. The god of Israel is nowhere to be seen once you get inside the church. But his name on the Marquee is what brings people in and makes them believe. In truth, they want nothing to do with the god of Israel. The only commandments Christians keep are the ones they understand or agree with.
Do not lie? That makes sense to them
Do not steal? That makes sense to them too

The laws they keep are the ones they would keep even if they didn't know God existed. They know these things innately. No one needs to tell them that stealing is wrong.
What laws of God did they keep that they don't understand or don't agree with? None
Because you see, God has to agree with them.
Jesus is their attempt to make God in their image

If God is really three heads then where are the holidays for the other two heads? Jesus is all they care about

I appreciate the use of italics to indicate that you are quoting some other source. It would be greatly appreciated if you would actually cite what that source might be.
Swedenborg?

Yes. Indeed. It is out of the collection of a few replies, called "Nine questions". From time to time I omit the full reference, so that the matter/quotation may speak to itself.

People are one person in one being. God is three persons in One Being. The Bible says there is only one name given to people, that can save us and, that name is Jesus (Yeshua in Hebrew). Hope that helps.

The question is, does the Bible teach a triune Godhead?

Trinitarians say: Yes.

And since it does, then we (Trinitarians) believe accordingly.

All of that other stuff you said is for the birds...and distracts us from the real discussion.

You're right, @Richard Aberdeen, that God has one name, but he also has three names: the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. It takes humility to accept a mystery.
