The trinity is a way for Christians to reconcile God's immortality with Jesus' mortality. If God is three in one then he can be both immortal and all-powerful and still die to save our sins. The idea of the trinity arose long after Jesus and his disciples died. Hence the Latter day Saint movement and others rejects it entirely, stating God exists separetly from Jesus and the Holy Spirit.
Judaism and Islam of course believe in the same God but do not believe in the trinity.

What represents the holy trinity?

The trinity is a FALSE DOCTRINE invented by the Catholic Church. The Bible clearly states that there is ONE GOD.

I am a father (i have children), I am a son (I have parents), I am a Postman ( my job). Yet I am ONE not three people acting as one.
