Why I Am a Trinitarian – and Why I Don’t Get Excited About It
Why I am a Trinitarian – and why I don’t get excited about it. I am a Trinitarian. It is a name given to anyone who holds to the doctrine of the Trinity. However, it’s not a topic that I feel is something that I must champion. It just doesn’t get me fired up as […]
