The most damaging proof that shows that God is not a Trinity is 1 Corinthians 8:4-6 [pa|in]:
Now concerning the eating of food offered to idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world and that there is no God but one. For even though there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth, just as there are many “gods” and many “lords,” there is actually to us one God, the Father, from whom all things are and we for him; and there is one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things are and we through him.

JEHOVAH ALONE IS THE TRUE GOD AND IS THE FATHER
The following scriptures prove that only the Father is Jehovah and the only true God. Jesus is never once referred to as "the true God" whether in his fleshly or resurrected spiritual forms. Jehovah is repeatedly shown to be one, and only one individual, not a Trinity, nor a group of individuals in one God.
