This wiki page says that: > Emanuel Swedenborg explained in his theological writings how the Divine Trinity exists in One Person, in One God, the Lord Jesus Christ, which he said is taught in Colossians 2:9. According to *The Heavenly Doctrine,* Jesus, the Son of God, came into the world because of the spread of evil here. So Swedenborg did believe that Jesus was God, but on the other hand he didn't seem to believe in Trinity—that is, that the other two Persons of the Trinity were God. If so, then how did he go about explaining numerous verses in the Bible claiming that the Father is God? And how did he explain those instances when Jesus prayed to the Father?
