There are many words and phrases which don't occur in the bible that Christians use to express biblical concepts. Here are just some: The Lord's Supper, theology, hermeneutics, tract. I am sure there are many more. That doesn't mean that there is anything unbiblical about things like theology and the Lord's Supper. "Trinity" is similar. Now of course it's possible to use the word Trinity wrongly, and to suggest belief in three Gods, but there is nothing wrong in the word itself.
Do you deny that God the Father is a person?
Do you deny that the Lord Jesus Christ, God the Son, is a person?
Do you deny that God the Holy Spirit is a person?
Do you deny that the Lord Jesus Christ is God?
Do you deny that God the Father is God?
Do you deny that the Holy Spirit is God?
I guess you're taking Col. 2:9 literally?
"For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily."
So you're saying Christ is all three? The Three in One.
The only way you can explain the clear conversations between the Father and the Son found in Scripture, is to say that at times they can be independent of one another.
Am I in the ballpark?
He's a Pentecostal Oneness, or a variation of it.

In his profile he says he's a Baptist.
A quote from Z on The Chosen, "would you believe this is not the strangest thing I've seen this week?"

I think I get your point, although I have never watched "The Chosen."
The days of a Baptist being a Baptist are far in the past.

Perhaps it would be more accurate to say, "The days of everybody who calls himself a Baptist actually being a Baptist are far in the past," but I know what you mean.

Yes, I agree your quote is more accurate.
The word Trinity and the concept of it is not teaching that God is three persons. The Bible teaches quite clearly that God is one.
God is Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. They are ONE.
There is so much wisdom in this.
