When someone is talking about the LORD, are they referring to God or Jesus?
'Cause sometimes I think they refer to both... can Jesus and God be the same?

I'm not religious either,

basically yes, they are the same substance or have the same nature, revealed in 2 persons.

Its difficult for us humans to comprehend, the trinity is on a whole different level.

There is a big difference between being religious and having faith.

The way we like to like christianity is by faith not like its a religion. Because it isn't made to be a religion. christianity is a Kingdom, Jesus said the word "church" ONE time, but he said "kingdom" countless times.

If you didn't notice, it was the religious leaders that killed Jesus and hated him. Although Jesus' purpose on Earth was to die for us, You still can't dismiss what Jesus said, "don't be like the religious leaders".

So what you're saying is, you're a Protestant? Well, congratulations, but most of the world still considers you religious. Especially when you go around proclaiming stupid shit like "he who calls on the lord shall be saved."

"trinity" is false doctrine, it originated in the 4th century where it was used by the church under the direction of Emperor Constantine to make Christianity more acceptable to the pagans who worshiped triads of gods

LOL!

you've obviously never read the bible lol

clearly talks about the trinity.

Just because the word "trinity" is not in the Bible doesn't mean that the concept is not taught. The word "monotheism" is not in the Bible, yet the Bible teaches it.

Matthew 28:19, "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit,"
2 Corinthians. 13:14, "The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with you all."

The Trinity is something really deep and hard to understand, for us humans at least. The Trinity is one God who exists simultaneously in three persons. Each is coequal, copowerful, and coeternal with the other. Each person--Father, Son and Holy Spirit--is not the other. Without either there is no God; all comprise the one God.
