My friend, it is important to understand who the Son of God is and what is His role in the government of God. First He is the Son of God and from this we find that His power and authority come from the fact that He is the Son of God, and as such is subject to the authority of the Father. Jesus said "When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things. And he that sent me is with me: the Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him." (John 8:28, 29).
Notice, that Jesus said "I do nothing of myself", and that everything that He does pleases the Father. This was not just as a man, but has always been. In the heavenly courts, He was always subject to the Father. The trinity teaches that this is just a role that one of the divine beings has assumed, but this is not so, it has always been.
Before sin and before any being was created, God brought forth a son who is the only begotten Son of God. The Son of God is divine and as such is God, but He is not the one true God. Of this He has testified saying "And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent." (John 17:3).
In order for the Son of God to be a son, He must have a beginning and though He was not created, He came forth from the Father. If this did not happen, then He would not be a son. The Scriptures declare "The LORD possessed me in the beginning of his way, before his works of old. I was set up from everlasting, from the beginning, or ever the earth was. When there were no depths, I was brought forth; when there were no fountains abounding with water. Before the mountains were settled, before the hills was I brought forth:" (Proverbs 8:22-25).
The belief that the Son of God is not truly a son is of Satan. It destroys the father son relationship and distorts our image of God. Of this the apostle John warned us "Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also." (1 John 2:22, 23).
The trinity is a false representation of who God is. It would have you believe that God is made up of three divine beings who are collectively God and individually God. it teaches that all three have always existed but have chosen roles by which we are to distinguish them from. But how can this be true for if each are God unto themselves, then the trinity is three gods and as such is paganism.
My friend, the truth is that there is only one God, the Father and He is represented to us by His Son. The Father is the true creator of all things and He did so by His Son. "But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him." (1 Corinthians 8:6).
God bless,
