We can describe the Trinity, and defend the Biblical teachings about the Trinity against misunderstandings and misrepresentations. But I'm not sure you can "prove" the Trinity, in the normal sense of what we mean by that word. It's hard enough to describe something that has no parallel in the creation. The Trinity is sui generis -- one of a kind. So I believe in the Trinity because of the nature and teachings of Jesus Christ. I take it as an article of faith revealed to us in Scripture, not because I can naturally reason upward to the Trinity from things I see in nature.

God often sends His best workers to little places full of unimportant people. The notion, followed by some mission groups, that Christianity trickles down from the elite to the street is never seen in the Bible. Christianity has always been a faith for the lower classes, maybe because it's the lower classes that are willing to admit they have need. |
