The Pagan Origins of the Trinity
Preface
My purpose in this book is a rescue mission.
Not a theological exercise or academic project meant to answer every objection. Nor an exhaustive and weighty tome bringing every strand of evidence to the table. A beacon, rather, for people who sensed something was wrong but couldn’t name it, who were never told the whole story, and who deserve to know the truth about where the doctrine of the Trinity came from.
