Excerpt from Testimonies of the Ante-Nicene Fathers: To the Doctrine of the Trinity and of the Divinity of the Holy Ghost The doctrine of the Trinity is in fact established by any passages, which prove the divinity of the second and third persons: and by the doctrine of the Trinity, I mean the doctrine of there being three distinct persons, each of whom is God, but all of whom, when considered as to their substance or essence, are only one God. I am not now explaining the nature of this mystery, but merely stating what is meant by the doctrine of the Trinity, as it has been held by the catholic church from the earliest ages to the present; and I repeat, that this doctrine is established by any passages, which prove the di vinity of the Son and the Holy Ghost.
