A nice summary from Google's AI
The Trinity is the belief that God exists as three persons in one Godhead: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. The Bible establishes the basis for the Trinity through references to these three persons.
Biblical evidence for the Trinity
Matthew 28:19: "In the name of the Father, of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit"
John 10:30: "I and my Father are one"
2 Corinthians 13:13: "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Spirit be with you all"
History of the Trinity
The Trinity emerged around 33-34 AD/CE, during or shortly after Jesus's death and resurrection
The Nicene Creed established the official Trinity belief for Christians at the Council of Nicea in 325 AD/CE
The word "Trinity" comes from the Latin word Trinitas, coined by the early Christian writer Tertullian
The Trinity is used to defend the church against charges of worshiping two or three gods. It's also connected to the sacraments, which believers receive to enter into the divine life.
