Mark 2:1–12

The word “Trinity” doesn’t have to be in the Bible for it to be true

The absence of the word “Trinity” in the Bible is no more a problem for Christians than the absence of the word “tawhid” in the Qur’an is for Muslims. Words do not create truth; they help us describe it. The Trinity names the one God revealed as Father, Son, and Spirit — eternally loving and relational. This is not a puzzle but a window into God’s heart, revealed in Jesus, who invites us into God’s family forever.
