This verse is found in no ancient manuscript, and can be proved to have been inserted, perhaps in the fifth century, to support the doctrine of the Trinity. It is the one verse in the New Testament which is entirely spurious, and has now been struck out from every good text.

What does the bible say about trinity?
1 John 5:7, a verse that is known as the "Johannine Comma", is the only time the Holy Trinity is actually mentioned in The Bible as we have it today. The verse was never in the early Greek manuscripts, only appearing in the Latin translation of the fifth century, after the Trinity doctrine had been accepted by the Council of Nicaea.
Did Desiderius Erasmus add 1st John chapter 5 verses 7 and 8 to the New Testament?
A:1 John 5:7-8 is a passage now referred to as the 'Johannine Comma'. It is important because it is considered the biblical justification for the Holy Trinity of Father, Son and Holy Spirit. This passage is known to have been in the New Testament from the fifth century onwards, and therefore was not placed there by Desiderius Erasmus. However, Erasmus did omit the passage from his first two Greek-language editions of the New Testament, because it was absent from the manuscripts he used at that stage, only adding the Johannine Comma to his third edition.
How does Matthew 28 verses 19-20 relate to the Trinity?
This is the only reference that mentions all three persons of the Holy Trinity, apart from 1 John 5:7, the "Johannine Comma", which first appeared in the manuscripts in the fifth century. Matthew's reference, while naming the divine persons, does not suggest that they were one.
What were the circumstances of John when 1 John was written?
The First Epistle of John is believed to have been written in the same community as the Gospel of John. Because the books were later attributed to the apostle John, this community is commonly referred to as the Johannine community. 1 John was written shortly after the Gospel and reflects a split in the Johannine community. It appears that at this stage, one group chose to join community more closely aligned to the synoptic gospels, while those who remained drifted into a more Gnostic form of belief.
Where does the Bible mention the Johannine community?
A:Scholars have established that there was a 'Johannine community' that split shortly after the fourth gospel was written. The term 'Johannine' refers to the putative author of the Gospel and the three related epistles, John. The evidence is circumstantial, found in the Johannine epistles. 1 John shows a great deal of bitterness towards those of the community who chose not to come with them in joining the 'centrist' tradition, but instead maintaining and reinforcing their Gnostic traditions. For example, the author wanted to charge his opponents with being sinners (1 John 1:8-10), but since his new soteriology (doctrine of salvation) was about sin and forgiveness, the topic could backfire because he did not want to offer his opponents the promise of forgiveness. This made it necessary to engage in a bit of logical casuistry with regard to sins for which forgiveness was possible rather than those for which it was not (1 John 2:1-2, 3:4-10).These and other passages would be anachronistic if addressed to Christians at large, butbuild up a picture of a community in schism. This was the 'Johannine' community.As can be seen, they parted ways over orientation to knowledge (gnosis) versus faith.

When was the discovery of Holy Trinity?
The concept of the Holy Trinity seems to have evolved in the third century. This became controversial in the early part of the fourth century, with some support for the doctrine and some strong opposition. The Council of Nicaea approved the doctrine, known as Trinitarianism, but the opposing doctrine, Arianism, continued to have strong support and almost won the day. Finally, at the end of the century, Emperor Theodosius declared Arianism to be heresy. There is no evidence for or against Trinitarianism in the Bible, although a passage known as the 'Johannine Comma' (1 John 5:7) does refer indirectly to the concept of the Trinity. However, the 'Johannine Comma' was never in the early Greek manuscripts, only appearing in the Latin translation of the fifth century, long after the Trinity doctrine had been accepted by the Council of Nicaea.

Should John 14 verse 31 be followed by John 18 verse 1?
AnswerJohn 14:31 ends with Jesus saying, "Arise, let us go hence." Yet, John 15:1 continues a conversation, without any introduction or context. Thus, John 15:1-17:26, which contains material unique to John's Gospel, does not follow naturally on from John 14:31. Nevertheless, this material is probably from the original author or a very early associate in the Johannine community. It may be that, after completion of an early draft, the author(s) wanted to add the material contained in 15:1-17:26, had no better place to locate that material without affecting the structure or integrity of the gospel, so inserted it between verses 14:31 and 18:1.
