The trinity is the least understood and most important concept in the church. Yet many would just as soon jettison it in the interest of ecumenical unity. God in Three Persons defends the significance of a trinitarian definition and explains it in understandable terms.

The word Trinity doesn't appear in the Bible - yet Christians for centuries have held that it is a biblical truth, foundational to orthodoxy. But very few understand how the doctrine came to be. Author E. Calvin Beisner traces the formulationof the doctrine and all the controversies that arose among early Christians who strove to find acceptable language to correctly state this important doctrine.

Twelve evangelical scholars offer a comprehensive defense of the eternal submission of the Son and the Spirit to the Father, exploring the issue from exegetical, theological, historical, and pastoral perspectives.

All who embrace historic, orthodox Christianity affirm the doctrine of God's tri-unity. But how many Christians can articulate this central and fundamental article of faith, especially when cultists attack it as unbiblical? Allen Vander Pol has developed a concise and lucid introduction to the Trinity. After making clear the doctrine's essential nature, he demonstrates that, while the term Trinity does not appear in Scripture, the concept does. He concludes with a chapter on objections to trinitarianism, especially those mounted by the cults.
