If we just examine it in a Christian context and stop and think, after Jesus we are supposed to be all taught by God, and Jesus in the picture as well.
The Spirit of Truth, Comforter = Father, he was to take all of Jesus's words and show them to us, includes understanding.
With that in mind, how the beepers do we get numerous Christian faiths = HOUSTON LOL.

If the Spirit of truth was in play, the world as we know it, would be unrecognizable.

SO, logic and commonsense tells one, there must be a common denominator.
I would suggest, to get the aid of the Spirit of truth, at the very lest one needs to know the very basics, on the who and what the Father and Son are.
This was clearly corrupted by the CC's, which seems to have begun around the 100's, according to their Questionable records and the Bible.
Most Christians follow some of their key core roots.

Now LOOK at John 17:3 and tell me HOW the only true God there can be -> Father, Son and Holy Spirit, following is the ONLY explanation I can see for this extremely Strange claim and would nail it in seconds.
2 Thes 2:10, 11 - and with all unrighteous deception among those who perish, because they did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved.
And for this reason God will send them strong delusion, that they should believe the lie,

For some very strange reason, no matter how many times I put it to the likes of ppm, he simply cannot see that Jesus unquestionably and independently of himself, defines the Father as the only true God when here in John 17:3.
It's smack in ones face, the above is the only answer I have.

"most choose an interpretation that goes nicely with their various prejudices,"

Been there and done it, but we have to let the Bible, as in the overall do the talking, and be able to consider seriously, all others points, and way them all up against the Bible.

Most claim Jesus is the creator, the likes of Isa 44:24, rolls that in seconds, no if buts maybe's, but they seem blinded to it?????????????????

If you get serious and break down what a trinity God does to the Father and Son, putting it politely, they both totally vanish, God gets another Spirit, a god the holy spirit is made out of his, they steal his word 1:1 and the true light he is John 1:9.
And that's without getting into their unrecognizable Jesus, the 2nd Adam Man, born from Mary LOL, yes the one that grew in favor with God, to the extent that God was well pleased with him
However, apparently, not that the Bible says so, that 2nd Adam man is not good enough to atone for sins go figure?

LOL, are you seeing a snippet of the picture LOL.

How can anybody be taught by God?

The Comforter is a Teacher who returns in the same manner as Jesus. He is alluded to as the return of Jesus vecause He serves the same Will of God as Jesus did.

If the spirit of truth was in play, humans would still be humans and misinterpret just as the Pharisees did.

Logic and common sense, let me stop you right there.

Don't worry about the CC, worry about yourself.

I have never met a Christian who has not been suffering a strong delusion. When they recover from that delusion they are no longer Christian.

The Trinity exists in the sense that God needs and requires a special type of human who is a Manifestation of God to be a link between God and man. This individual is inspired and supported by the active force of God which we call the Holy Spirit.

So it's God and His power, the Holy Spirit and an individual who channels this power into a Teaching for humankind. There have been many Teachers like Christ, so even though God is not made of parts and Jesus is no part of God, still there is a kind of Trinity in that God's instructive power enters the likes of Jesus for the benefit of humankind. There is no Trinity as described by the CC.
