Is the Trinity a Man-made Doctrine? Testing Tom Bradford
from The Biblical Roots Podcast
Send us Fan MailIn this video, Dr. R. L. Solberg carefully examines Tom Bradford's teaching on the Trinity and compares it to the teaching of Scripture. Bradford argues that the traditional doctrine of the Trinity developed later in church history and does not accurately reflect the biblical picture of God. But is that claim supported by the Bible?We'll examine key passages from both the Old and New Testaments, explore what Christians have historically meant by the doctrine of the Trinity, and test Bradford's claims against the biblical text itself. Along the way, we'll discuss the deity of Christ, the eternal Sonship of Jesus, the incarnation, adoptionism, modalism, and why precise theological language matters.This study is not about attacking people. It's about following the Berean principle of testing every teaching against Scripture.LinksMr. Bradford's Full TeachingIs the Trinity taught in the Bible and why does it matter?
