This particular trinity is made up of Osiris, the father; Isis, the mother; and Horus, the child, but there were several others in Egypt alone.
The concept of the Trinity is not found in the Bible, yet nearly all the churches of Christendom teach that God is a Trinity. So where did this teaching come from? Many ancient false religions worshipped trinities of gods. In the book ‘Egyptian Religion’, Siegfried Morenz notes: “The trinity was a major preoccupation of Egyptian theologians. In this way the spiritual force of Egyptian religion shows a direct link with Christian theology.” Thousands of years ago Jehovah warned the Israelites not to get involved with false worship, but even today it is a major problem for many religions who claim to be Christian.
