SCRIPTURAL EVIDENCE What do we know about the early belief in the Trinity? Clearly the strong Jewish tradition among the first Christians slowed the initial development of the doctrine. This is especially true since Jesus never preached it. The only place in the gospels that even hints at the doctrine of the Trinity are the last verses of Matthew:
Jesus came forward and addressed them in these words: “Full
authority has been given to me both in heaven and on earth; go,
therefore, and make disciples of all the nations. Baptize them in
the name ‘of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit.’”
[Matthew 28:18-19]
