Logos
The Greek term logos embraces a wide semantic field, including the ideas of account, proportion, explanation, principle, reason, thought, as well as continuous statement (e.g., narrative, story, speech, history), individual utterance (e.g., proverb, maxim, command), discussion, debate, and, as a grammatical term, phrase or sentence. Normally it is not used in the sense of a single word.

Paraclete
A transliteration of Greek parakletos. The word has been translated as “Comforter,” “Counselor,” “Advocate,” “your Advocate,” and “Helper.” The Lord applied the term to the Holy Spirit in John 14:16, 26; 15:26; 16:7. John uses it of Jesus in 1 John 2:1.

Trinity
The word trinity is not found in the Bible, but the New Testament does contain the foundation for the later doctrine. In particular, while insisting on one God, it presents Jesus Christ as the divine Son distinct from God the Father, and seems to present the Holy Spirit or Paraclete as a divine person distinct from both. This term is used to express the doctrine of the unity of God as subsisting in three distinct persons.
