HERE IS WHAT W.E VINES EXPOSITORY DICTIONARY OF NEW TESTAMENT WORDS SAYS UNDER “GOD” .

Topic: God
<1,,2316,theos>
(I) in the polytheism of the Greeks, denoted "a god or deity," e.g., Acts 14:11; 19:26; 28:6; 1 Cor. 8:5; Gal. 4:8.
(II) (a) Hence the word was appropriated by Jews and retained by Christians to denote "the one true God."

In the Sept. theos translates (with few exceptions) the Hebrew words Elohim and Jehovah, the former indicating His power and preeminence, the latter His unoriginated, immutable, eternal and self-sustained existence.
In the NT, these and all the other Divine attributes are predicated of Him.

To Him are ascribed, e.g., His unity, or monism, e.g., Mark 12:29; 1 Tim. 2:5; self-existence, John 5:26; immutability, Jas. 1:17; eternity, Rom. 1:20; universality, Matt. 10:29; Acts 17:26-28; almighty power, Matt. 19:26; infinite knowledge, Acts 2:23; 15:18; Rom. 11:33; creative power, Rom. 11:36; 1 Cor. 8:6; Eph. 3:9; Rev. 4:11; 10:6; absolute holiness, 1 Pet. 1:15; 1 John 1:5; righteousness, John 17:25; faithfulness, 1 Cor. 1:9; 10:13; 1 Thess. 5:24; 2 Thess. 3:3; 1 John 1:9; love, 1 John 4:8,16; mercy, Rom. 9:15,18; truthfulness, Titus 1:2; Heb. 6:18."

The concept of the Trinity is woven all throughout the New Testament.

If you can't see it your blind.

The doctrine of the trinity is truly beyond human comprehension or the limits of our finite minds, but it is nevertheless a vital truth of the Bible. It is a doctrine that is closely connected to other key doctrines like the deity of Christ and the Holy Spirit. In fact, our salvation is rooted in the mysterious nature of the Godhead who coexists as three distinct Persons all of whom are involved in our salvation in all its aspects, past, present, and future. It encompasses everything we know and practice as Christians—our sanctification, our fellowship, our prayer life, our Bible study, or our corporate worship. That this is true and a precious truth for us to rest in is evident in Paul’s closing benediction in 2 Corinthians 13:14 and in Peter’s salutation and doxology in 1 Peter 1:1-5.

2 Cor. 13:14. The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all.

1 Peter 1:1-5. Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to those who reside as aliens, scattered throughout Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, who are chosen 2 according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, by the sanctifying work of the Spirit, that you may obey Jesus Christ and be sprinkled with His blood: May grace and peace be yours in fullest measure. 3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His great mercy has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 4 to obtain an inheritance which is imperishable and undefiled and will not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, 5 who are protected by the power of God through faith for a salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

May the Lord bless you in your study of His precious Word and in your walk with God the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

I believe if you ask the Holy Spirit to open your eyes and if you set aside your preconceived prejudices - He will open your eyes so that you can clearly see what is written in the New Testament-re: the concept of the Trinity.

Let me help a little bit. Just like you and your spirt are one - it's the same with Jehovah and the Holy spirt. Now recall it was prophesied -the the Virgin would give birth to Emanuel- God be with us.

Blamity BLAM - God - the Holy Spirit- and Jesus- The Trinity

Yes, Jesus was God manifest in the flesh- he's the redeemer of our souls- believe in Him and be saved. Ask Jesus into your heart today - if you haven't already done so. You will be born a new and filled with The Holy Spirit. May Jehovah bless you as you learn the truths He has given us in His Word.
