Common Objections, Clear Answers
“It should say names, not name.”
Answer: Matthew 28:19 uses the singular word name while listing the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit together. That points to unity, not three separate gods.
“Name only means authority.”
Answer: Even if name refers to authority, the three are still grouped together under one singular name. That strengthens the point instead of weakening it.
“Three persons means three gods.”
Answer: Person and being are not the same category. The Christian claim is one divine being, three distinct persons.
Deuteronomy 6:4, John 1:1, Acts 5:3–4, Matthew 28:19
