 Name a single provable teaching of Jesus that isn't from the Bible. 
 The Trinity. Next question. 
 If you think the Trinity isn't in the Bible, you haven't read the Bible. 
 It was not originally from the Holy Bible.
See how your reasoning is superficial? 
 Apparently you haven't read the Fathers either.

When they're arguing these issues, around both Nicaea and Constantinople I, their citations are almost entirely from Scripture.

At least read a single book before defending a position that relies so heavily on historical literacy. 
 To be deep in history is to cease to be a Papist. 
 It has support but is not explicitly in Holy Scripture. Oneness Pentecostals reject the Trinity because they can't find it in their bibles.

Jesus didn't write the New Testament. His followers did, and *all of* His teachings were believed before they were written. 
 And that is just one more of the reasons why no one should meddle with the Holy Scriptures. Even less so heretics who consciously opted for changing sentences and ripping books out on a whim.

Once you read "History of the heresies and their refutations", from Saint Alphonse-Marie de Ligório, you will see how well documented is the whole process of the protestant stupidity and arrogance. 
 Why do all Roman Catholics lie about the Bible?

Yes, the Trinity is explicitly in Scripture. To attempt to deny this is so ridiculous that you should have your Internet privileges revoked. The state should literally, physically rip the cables out of the ground that connect to your house.

All you're doing is revealing that you've never actually read or comprehended the Bible, which you also pretend to believe is from God.

Moreover, as I mentioned before, it's just patently false. The Fathers who formulated the doctrine explicitly did so on the basis of Scripture. Your take is historically illiterate, in addition to being Biblically illiterate.

No one cares what Oneness Pentecostals believe. You may as well be appealing to Muslims or Buddhists. Personal opinions have no relevance to what's actually there. 
 You are not even creative.
All of your errors have been made by protestants and answered by real scholars.

 Why do you have to cite articles that are definitely wrong? Why can't you speak for yourself? 
 You're a troll is what I have to conclude, since you evidently don't desire to engage with our arguments. 
 You haven't made any arguments, you're a literal retard. Both of you deserve less attention from me than you got, you have both obviously put near zero effort into considering your positions.

I'm not an academic, and I am leagues ahead of both of you in terms of familiarity with the history, the academia, and your own dogma.

You both conveniently glossed over the fact that Rome's officially endorsed Biblical commentary endorses gay sex btw. 
 You're winning all the Jesus points today 🫡 
 I always win the Jesus points. 
 @James Lewis the fun thing is: you didn't even address the counterpoints to your lose sentences. What you said does not hold together.

You have been offered resources and written arguments for you to make considerations you clearly missed on your statements and others needed to fundament critical thinking regarding your claims. 
 @James Lewis I would have tagged you earlier, but you were really involved in a Bitcoin conversation. 
 You have to actually make an argument before I can respond to one.

I'm not reading your link spam. 
 @James Lewis @Aspartame 
As concerning who the Israelites tempted in the wilderness, 1 Corinthians 10:9 identifies Christ, Hebrews 3:7-9 identifies the Holy Ghost, Psalm 95 identifies Jehovah.
Christ prays to the Father, while also saying He is one with the Father.
Whichever way you harmonise these facts will lead you to upholding the Godhead.
