Is the Trinity in the Book of Luke?
Luke 13:29–14:10 on Papyrus 45 (recto; c. AD 250)

In our series about what is stated concerning God, Jesus, and the holy Spirit in the various books of the New Testament, this article will examine the Gospel of Luke. Is the Trinity doctrine in the Book of Luke?
Luke 1:31 – “Name him Jesus,” (not God, “God the Son”, or Yahweh)
Luke 1:32 – “He will be great and will be called the Son of the Most High, Yahweh God will give Him the throne of His father David” (LSB margin) – The “greater” gives to the lesser (John 14:28). He will be called, not God or “God the Son”, but “the Son of the Most High” who is “the Yahweh God.” Jesus has forefathers, such as David, but Yahweh God doesn’t have any forefathers, since he is “from eternity” (Psalm 90:2). This is another reason why Jesus cannot be God.
