 Proverbs 30:5
5 Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that
put their trust in him. 6 Add thou not unto his words, lest he
reprove thee, and thou be found a liar.

Do Not Add to God's Word
In light of this scripture, it is once again prudent to be reminded of the
fact that there is only one Person who is qualified to define the Godhead, and
that Person is Almighty God, Himself. Any attempt by Man to define in his own
ability God would result in something less than the inspired word of God, itself,
and the accuracy therein.
However, there is another question that should be asked. Are writings such
as the Athanasian Creed on
which the Doctrine of the Trinity is based, which defines God as,
"26. But the whole three persons are coeternal, and coequal."
... are such writings an addition to God's word? Are they Man's attempt at
defining a God whose creation they cannot even measure? Is the Athanasian Creed
an action in opposition to what God has proclaimed in Proverbs 30:5?
