A review of so-called Trinity proof-texts reveals something very disturbing. Many of the passages in question have been tampered with by someone.

One passage employed by Trinitarians, Matthew 28:19, is under high suspicion. It is not quoted by any early Christians except Eusebius, the church historian, who actually quotes another version of this verse many times that does not name "Father, Son, and Holy Spirit" but names Jesus alone which just happens to be more sensible to the context, "all authority has been given to ME. Go therefore and make disciples in my name."

The "God was manifested in the flesh" version of 1 Timothy 3:16 is now accepted by Trinitarian scholars as a fraud. They kindly refer to it as a "scribal error."

There are two manuscript versions of Acts 20:28. In Trinitarian Bibles you will find it saying, "church of God which he bought with his own blood" but there is significant manuscript evidence and early Christian quotations of this verse which have "church of the Lord" and not "church of God."

There are two versions of John 1:18 floating about and one of them is a fraud. Trinitarians choose the "only begotten God" version over and against the "only begotten Son" version which seems far more consistent with John's terminology. The latter is also well attested in early manuscripts and early Christian writings but the former was favored by the Gnostics and Arians.

And we don't need to search way back into the early church to find this tampering. The King James Version of the Bible inserted the word "God" into Acts 7:59 and 1 John 3:16 to make it look like Jesus was being called "God" when the word "God" is not even in the Greek text. And indeed both the KJV and the NIV change the noun "glory" into the adjective "glorious" at Titus 2:13 to make it sound like Jesus is being called "God."

Trinitarian scholars now admit 1 John 5:7 is a counterfeit verse. The first evidence we can find of this verse was probably by Priscillian of Spain who was also convicted of sorcery.

This should cause one to raise an eyebrow. Someone has been tampering with the Scriptures concerning verses that are related to Trinitarian doctrine. Now Trinitarians might respond that someone was tampering with these verses to deny their preferred versions of these texts. Yes, that may be true for some of them. Perhaps the version of Matthew 28:19 we have in our Bibles today is indeed valid and somebody tampered with it in the early church to say something else. That is quite possible. But the facts also indicate that at least two textual variants preferred by Trinitarians, 1 John 5:7 and 1 Timothy 3:16, are now admitted by Trinitarian translation scholars to be fraudulent. Hence, we can see that texts were corrupted to favor Trinitarian doctrine, not the other way around. And this trend causes one to cast a very suspicious eye on their other claims concerning Matthew 28:19 and John 1:18 and Acts 20:28 et al.
