36. That a trinity of Gods is contrary to Holy Scripture is well known, for it is written:

Am not I Jehovah? and there is no God else besides Me a just God and a Saviour there is none besides Me. Isa. xlv 21, 22.

I, Jehovah, am thy God . . . and thou shalt acknowledge no God besides Me for there is no Saviour besides Me. Hosea xiii 4.

Thus saith Jehovah the King of Israel, and His Redeemer, Jehovah Zebaoth I am the First and I am the Last, and besides Me there is no God. Isa. xliv 6.

Jehovah Zebaoth is His Name, and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel the God of the whole earth shall He be called. Isa. liv 5.

In that day . . . Jehovah shall be King over all the earth; in that day there shall be one Jehovah and His Name One. Zech. xiv 9.

There are also many more such passages.
